Bluey is an Australian animated preschool television series which premiered on ABC Kids on 1 October 2018. The program was created by Joe Brumm and is produced by Queensland-based company Ludo Studio. The show follows Bluey, an anthropomorphic six-year-old (later seven-year-old) Blue Heeler puppy who is characterised by her abundance of energy, imagination and curiosity about the world. The young dog lives with her father, Bandit; mother, Chilli; and younger sister, Bingo, who regularly joins Bluey on adventures as the pair embark on imaginative play together. Other characters featured each represent a different dog breed. The child characters of Bluey are voiced by children of the program's production crew and, for privacy reasons, are not credited in the show as voice actors.{{Cite web |last=Knox |first=David |date=4 September 2018 |title=Airdate: Bluey |url=https://tvtonight.com.au/2018/09/airdate-bluey.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190419063919/https://tvtonight.com.au/2018/09/airdate-bluey.html |archive-date=19 April 2019 |access-date=19 April 2019 |website=TV Tonight}}{{Cite web |last=Reiha |first=Amy |date=4 September 2018 |title=Bluey set to nuzzle her way into the hearts of Aussie preschoolers this October |url=https://tv.press.abc.net.au/bluey-set-to-nuzzle-her-way-into-the-hearts-of-aussie-preschoolers-this-october |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190228194422/https://tv.press.abc.net.au/bluey-set-to-nuzzle-her-way-into-the-hearts-of-aussie-preschoolers-this-october |archive-date=28 February 2019 |access-date=16 November 2019 |website=ABC TV Publicity |publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation}}
