the episode titled "space" features the character mackenzie processing abandonment trauma through play. [spoilers] there's a flashback sequence where he got mixed up in a slide as a very small child and assumes his mother abandoned him. His mother didn't actually abandon him, but it clearly upset him enough that he's been deeply affected by that event

Though there is a bit of values dissonance when Bandit discusses how mothers were "allowed to be mean" in the 80s. In the present day, Nana Heeler is nothing but kind.

Not as extreme as abuse between older individuals who know what they’re doing is wrong, but in “Bin Night”, Bingo mentions becoming friends with a child who severely verbally abused her the day before.

The Heelers are goals honestly, only extends to slight roughhousing and teasing during games such as Dad Baby where Chili lightly smacks Bandit with a newspaper in response to mocking comments about what it’s like to be pregnant, he’s very clear in on the joke though

There's a joke in "Fairytale" where child!Bandit's mother chases him with a shoe, implying she's gonna hit him with it. The show points out that this was wrong, but it's still out of left field for this show's typical message of promoting gentle parenting.

It’s off-screen and mild, but basically (spoilers!) Bluey and her dad find a little injured budgie by a tree, took it to the vet, and found out it died. Absolutely no blood, gore, rotting or anything like that

The only confirmed deaths are:
- a budgie that does offscreen (episode focuses lightly on grief)
- it’s confirmed chilli has a miscarriage (by the creator!) at some point, but it isn’t shown or mentioned explicitly and is only seen through metaphor. (Balloon popping when bingo pretends to be mum)
I think grandparents are believed to have died, some episodes are missing in the uk.

This concept comes up in a roleplay scenario in the episode "Magic", where Bluey and Bingo learn magic in order to "make people do anything", in this case to physically force the adults to play with them by "controlling" their body. While it's totally make-believe, everyone's reactions are played straight and at times they seem completely, genuinely, terrified. As such, it may still trigger the phobia depending on how bad yours is.

The Tradies (Construction men digging a pool) are watched by Bingo and Bluey from under the porch and under the stairs. The 2 Tradies probably realize it very soon because Bluey and Bingo are very loud and then later they see the kids watching them. The men aren't very upset as they infer the kids are probably just playing spy. Later the kids have ice cream with one of the men and realize he isn't mean or scary.

technically yes. in the episode “early baby” bluey is in school playing with her friends. they’re playing hospital and bluey is the doctor “delivering” her friend’s babies. it’s just pretend so it’s not at all graphic but one of bluey’s friends tells bluey that she’s having an “early baby” and the baby needs extra care after being born (premature). she then goes on to explain that her little sister was premature and had to stay in the hospital for a long time after birth which may be a sensitive subject for some! it’s handled very well and nothing bad happens (except rusty removing the baby from their play NICU and the girls screaming in terror but it’s very lighthearted and sweet)

In the episode with Jack, a character with ADHD, his little brother and dad ask what’s wrong with him and why he can’t sit still (aka stop stimming) and tell him not to stim.
“Crazy” is used sometimes. In Suprise (s3) bandit calls Bluey a “nut bag” which has some ableist roots
I do want to point out that there is a lot of positive disability rep too. For example at the end of the episode Army Jack realizes he isn’t bad for not being able to concentrate or remember things. There is also a positive scene in Suprise (s3) where bandit has a talk to a toy with a disability that bingo is playing with, he says he and his family will support him no matter what and Bluey (shown to have autistic and ADHD traits) overhears and is comforted by this. There is also an entire episode “Turtleboy” centring a Deaf little boy and using Auslan (Australian sign language) which has an Auslan sign interpreted video alongside it (this is important because some deaf people get reading fatigue from reading captions all the time and some younger signers may not be able to read yet as auslan is a completely different language to English)

In one episode, Uncle Randy mistakes Bluey to be a boy and she corrects him. However, this is not used in a harmful way.

In the episode "Grannymobile," a grouchy granny makes a fat shaming remark towards Bandit, and he's seen sadly looking at himself in the mirror.

Not only do no main characters die, everyone's an anthropomorphic dog, so there are no black people.

The episode “Flat Pack” is an allegory for evolution, religion, and death. At the end, Bluey walks to her parents, and they help her up onto the swing they built. Bluey watches her “daughter” (Bingo), and Bandit metaphorically says “This is heaven.”

Since the characters are anthropomorphic dogs, they don't need clothes. No genitalia is shown at all.

(S2E19) Bingo stuffs a balloon in her shirt but she’s pretending to be pregnant not fat. Closest I can think to this is Bluey using a couch cushion to pretend to have a big bum at the beginning of S2E37 ,but that could mean different things

It's implied Santa (and others like him) probably aren't real, but the adults are good about not spoiling it. The episode Easter (Season 2 Episode 52) in particular, manages to tell kids that it's not their fault if the Easter Bunny shows up late (or forgets about their house) while still keeping the magic of holidays like this alive.

Usually the end credits has Bluey dancing. In other episodes, there's an object or character relevant to the episode instead.

I mean it’s Australia, guns are close to impossible to acquire. And even with that half-joke aside the kids don’t seem to have toy guns for even pretend play (unless I’m forgetting something)
