BBQ from Season 1 of Bluey is such a classic episode

It feels like there is a never-ending list of great Bluey episodes and there is a category for everything.

When looking at the Bluey series as a whole though, Season 1 doesn't get as much love. While the show does get a lot of hype and rightfully so, Season 1 doesn't get nearly as much appreciation as it should.

With that being said, I knew I wanted to put the spotlight on a Season 1 episode and since it's summer in the US, then it feels like "BBQ" was the perfect episode to revisit and see if it's every bit as hilarious and heartwarming as I remember.

For those who haven't watched the episode, we're following the Heeler family as they're hosting a BBQ. Bluey and Bingo are joined by their cousins: Socks and Muffin. While Bluey is playing the part of grill master like Dad, Bingo is trying to relax but each time she tries to, there is something else for her to do.

"BBQ" feels like the ultimate summer episode of Bluey.

In a way, "BBQ" feels like one of the best Bingo episodes. Since the series is named after Bluey, most episodes focus on her but sometimes, episodes do put Bingo at the forefront. In particular, "BBQ" does an awesome job of showcasing Bingo's character and how as a younger sister, she can get tired of having to do things when she's just trying to relax. Even though I'm an older sibling, I can 100% relate to that.

In addition, the episode is a great lesson for kids and parents alike. For kids, it hopefully shows them to sometimes give Mom and Dad a second since they want to relax. For parents, it can feel surprisingly relatable as kids tend to do exactly what Muffin and Socks are doing to Bingo. In this case though, sometimes it's fun to sit back and chuckle at it.

There was even a special moment between Chili and Bingo which I adored. It was nice to see Bingo show her mum some appreciation. Plus there was even some comic relief from Bingo as she kept messing up things for her dad and then, eventually her uncle. All in all, "BBQ" is one of those Bluey episodes you'll watch once and find yourself, wanting to watch again.
