Disney+ has more Bluey and is premiering a new episode on Sunday, April 21 at 12 a.m. PT titled “Surprise.”
The episode will also air on Disney Junior at 7 a.m. PT and on Disney Channel at 7:30 a.m. PT, with multiple airings throughout the day.
“Surprise” comes after the April 7 episode “Ghostbasket” and the super-sized special “The Sign,” which captivated audiences around the world.
Created and written by Joe Brumm, the series follows Bluey, a lovable and inexhaustible Blue Heeler dog who lives with her Mum, Dad, and little sister, Bingo. Bluey uses her limitless energy to play games that unfold in unpredictable and hilarious ways, bringing her family and the whole neighborhood into her world of fun.
Brumm recently opened up about what inspired Bluey, telling The Guardian that the comedy Gavin and Stacey “was influential in a big way.”
“I loved how it genuinely crossed generations, like The Simpsons back in the day. I thought: ‘Why shouldn’t a kids’ show make parents laugh too?’ When the time came to do Bluey, that became the challenge,” he said.
Brumm said that Bluey was an Aussie take on Peppa Pig, adding that the English animated show “felt really English but without cliches or flag-waving.”
“Mr Bull would be digging up the road and say: ‘It’ll be finished when it’s finished.’ There are canal boats and castles in the background,” he added. “That’s what I wanted my show to do – to feel Australian but not with kangaroos and koalas, just by capturing the fabric of everyday life.”
