  1. I believe Bluey is one of the more successful rated shows on Disney plus right now, though apparently ‘The company had to give audiences a chance to acclimate to the Bluey characters and the shows sense of humour’. Disney had banned an episode which will be released later this year unedited, because of jokes about flatulence. The U.S. version of Bluey has had many scenes removed from episodes that contained bathroom humour.
