Family-Friendly BLUEY Reaches No. 2 Most-Streamed Show
By Movieguide® Contributor
BLUEY, a family-friendly children’s cartoon on Disney+, broke its streaming record during the week of July 10-16, becoming the second most-streamed show for that period.
Variety reported:
“BLUEY, the Australian animated preschool series that streams on Disney+, appears on Nielsen’s streaming rankings most weeks. But during the July 10-16 viewing window, the series…[became] the second most-streamed title of the week.”
Deadline added, “This week marked the best viewing the series has ever seen.”
Neilsen is a data collection company that regularly publishes information on the top ten series and movies streamed in the U.S. SUITS, a legal drama, came in first place. BLUEY came in second with 1,353 million streaming minutes.
This is almost twice as many streaming minutes as it had in April. That month, “BLUEY…was watched for 737 million minutes,” News.com.au reported.
Some other adult series fell behind BLUEY, including NCIS (seventh) and GREY’S ANATOMY (eighth). The only other children’s show on the list, COCOMELON, landed in tenth place with 648 million minutes of views.
BLUEY is a family-friendly cartoon series that originated in Australia. It follows a Blue Heeler puppy and her family, and episodes contain themes of love, compassion and friendship.
Movieguide® gave BLUEY’s first season a content rating of 3+. The review reads:
Season One is a wonderfully animated children show with a high production value. BLUEY is entertaining not just for children, but also adults. The comedy is witty enough to get a good chuckle out of parents. Even better, the program has strong family morals and lessons that both children and adults can learn. It has a positive depiction of Bluey’s relationship with her sister, mother and father. There are also common themes of sharing, learning and growing up. There is no foul language or other objectionable content. MOVIEGUIDE® finds BLUEY: Season One suitable for all ages.
