If you haven't watched Bluey because you think its just a kids show ... WATCH Bluey
It touches on some real adult themes in a good way.

They never mention Bluey or anything specific to them; it's just merely implied which means they don't have to pay anyone to do that. Also, this isn't some new thing that is done because people feel embolden by AI theft; this technique has been done for decades to reference things. Like this was done 20 years ago:
No. It's a kids show.
I can get adults themes in things aimed at adults.
I'm glad parents who are forced to watch it can find some enjoyment but lol at asking adults to watch a preschooler show

Plenty of adults without kids watch it and enjoy it. It's not just adult parents watching it let alone being forced to watch it.
I can confidently say that Bluey is better than your favorite show.
Its literally a show aimed at preschoolers. No harm in that. But why on earth are adults watching it.
I didn't come in to make fun of the show, just laughed at the idea "adult's should watch preschooler entertainment."
People can watch what they want but its extremely weird if its not some Stockholm syndrome situation and they're watching it without kids.
I can confidently say it's not.
Why are you so judgemental and offended it can be enjoyed by adults?
If it's good it's good. Folks can watch it.
What a very narrow minded perception
Confidence does not negate ignorance. As we can see here.
People are piling on you but yeah, would agree. I watch it as have a child and it's a top notch kids shows that definitely speaks to parents, but wouldn't target watching it over anything else if didn't have a child and it's not must see TV for all.
Clearly it's some people's jams, and watch whatever you want at the end of the day, but childless adults don't need to go flocking to watch Bluey. Lots of better entertainment to consume.
Because they like it. It's okay that you don't have interest or won't have interest because it's aimed at children. In cases where people like a thing that I don't like and crow about it I normally just let people enjoy things without being kind of a downer.
That's all I'm saying. I'm not attacking the show
But there's this weird contingent of people on the internet who feel the need to appropriate children's entertainment as something more powerful or important than children's entertainment.
I'm glad its a good show for its target audience, I just laughed at need to pretend adults should be watching it.
I've seen some when I've been around children at get togethers and adults turn it on for them. Its a good show for them.
I responded to a comment implying "adults should watch it," I responded. "Let people enjoy things" doesn't mean I can't have an opinion.

Nobody is trying to appropriate a children's show. What people are saying is it's not just a show that appeals or targets just children. It has a wide range in appeal just like Pixar films do. There's a reason why people say it's not like other children's shows and it's because they do touch on topics that other shows don't. The show doesn't dumb things down for children but rather makes it appealing to all ages. There's a wide range of articles and people who explain why it has such a wide age appeal and not simply a show for preschoolers and yet you want to confidently declare what the show is when people are telling you that your description is wrong.
This is some weird spin of what you said when we can all clearly read what you said just a few posts up.

You can and do, but you could have kept it to yourself and kept moving. Just seems mean spirited and unnecessary.
I'm going to dip out and try not to derail this thread anymore.
Wildass thread derail on a forum for videogames. Anyway....
My cynicism derives from an OBJECTIVELY SHITTY COMPANY MAKING THE WORLD WORSE co-opting ideas and associating itself with GOOD THING in an attempt to make money. Basically an accelerated version of this:
Fair point, but that's a one off joke. Even when Arby's was making the cardboard cutouts from various properties, that didn't really bother me.They never mention Bluey or anything specific to them; it's just merely implied which means they don't have to pay anyone to do that.

Comedy props people are underrated. Finding that house to play with that beagle with that SONG....is just the best

You can hate Zillow, and I'm not saying you shouldn't but I'm just saying what they did has nothing to do with being embolden by AI theft and is something that has been done for decades in TV shows, movies, and commercials. It's not something new at all and again has nothing even remotely to do with what's going on with AI.
More adults should watch Bluey because most adults are shitty parents who can learn as much from it as their kids can
Bluey went somewhat viral on Tiktok a few years ago resulting in a lot of people who usually would not be exposed to it getting it shoved into their feed.
But like... Adults watching and enjoying kid shows despite not having kids is not new.
I can't even imagine the utopia we would be living in if all fathers were even half as good as Bandit.
