The beloved children’s program Bluey, known for its quirky humor and relatable characters, has faced controversy surrounding one particular episode – “Dad Baby.” This playful and hilarious installment has been inexplicably banned from platforms like Disney Junior and Disney+.
The episode revolves around Bandit, the father, playfully pretending to be pregnant with his daughter Bingo. The comedic premise evolves into a hilarious and surprisingly well-written story filled with absurdity and witty dialogue. Despite the laughter it evokes, “Dad Baby” has been deemed inappropriate for younger audiences by some.

While the exact reason for the ban remains unclear, many speculate it revolves around the episode’s suggestive nature, potentially bordering on sex education. Creator Joe Brumm, however, proudly defends his creation, stating his refusal to compromise his humor and artistic vision despite potential consequences.
“Dad Baby” isn’t the only Bluey episode to face censorship. Another episode involving Bandit’s flatulence has also been removed from certain platforms. Brumm’s defiant stance, prioritizing humor over censorship, sets Bluey apart, highlighting the importance of playful and relatable entertainment for families.
