The long-awaited third series of cult children's TV show Bluey will launch on August 10, Disney+ has announced.
While households without toddlers may be unaware of the cultural phenomenon that is Bluey, the award-winning Australian animated show was named one of Rolling Stone Magazine's top 100 sitcoms of all time and boasts both a devoted audience base and best-selling merchandise line to rival other streaming hits like Stranger Things - although understandably it's considerably less tense.
Celebrity fans include actress Eva Mendes who admitted binge watching every episode with her daughters during lockdown, rock star Billy Joel who threw a Bluey themed birthday party for his daughter and Hamilton creator and all-round musical theatre legend Lin-Manuel Miranda who lobbied on social media for a cameo role on the show and, if Twitter is anything to go by, might just have got his wish in the batch of episodes to be launched shortly.
