‘Creator Joe Brumm and the team at Ludo Studio have blown us all away with the latest episodes,’ said Libbie Doherty, ABC Head of Children and Family.
‘The feedback has been overwhelmingly heartfelt across all age demographics – the weekly rollout gave kids and their families a chance to savour every morsel of each episode. We are humbled by these incredible results and thank the Bluey fans for their continued love and support.’
During season 3, Bluey and her family embark on more elaborate adventures. Bluey takes the day-to-day events of family life, like making a cubby house and a trip to the beach, and turns them into unique gameplay, creating adventures out of everyday moments.
Bluey airs every day on ABC Kids and is available to stream anytime on ABC iview.
