Just when we thought we had received our last “surprise” of the season, the fine folks who bring us Bluey announced that the beloved series would release 20 new “minisodes” to keep us occupied until Season 4. The first seven Bluey minisodes will premiere Wednesday, July 3, on Disney+ at 12 a.m. PT and Disney just dropped the trailer.

This new collection of one- to three-minute minisodes was written by series creator Joe Brumm and produced by Ludo Studio. Think of them as an assortment of Bluey amuse-bouches: they may be short, but they still capture those cute, sweet, and funny parenting moments like no other show on TV. According to Disney, here’s what each episode will be about:

  • “Burger Dog” — The kids want to dance to some annoying music but Dad pretends his battery on his phone is flat until Mum phones him.
  • “Bingo 3000” — Dad has bought a brand new “Bingo 3000” robot, but it’s not working, so he has to call technical support.
  • “Muffin Unboxing” — Stripe is filming Muffin unboxing a dump truck toy, but Muffin is struggling to stay focused.
  • “Letter” — Nana reads an old story that Bandit wrote from when he was five. The kids find this hilarious as Nana is reading out the words exactly as they are spelt.
  • “Hungry” — Dad is hungry so he pretends to eat Bluey.
  • “Three Pigs” — Dad retells the story of the three little pigs. In this version the pigs and the wolf eventually become friends.
  • “Animals” — Mum is playing the animal game on Bingo’s back. She pretends Bingo’s back is a big field, and various animals walk, jump and dart across it, making Bingo laugh.

You can stream all seven episodes on Disney+, or you can watch them on TV. “Burger Dog” and “Bingo 3000” will air on Disney Jr. and Disney Channel on July 3, with the remaining five episodes airing throughout the network’s “Red, White and Bluey” marathon over Fourth of July weekend. Additional Bluey minisodes will be released later this year, with the final dollop coming sometime in 2025.

On June 26, Disney shared the official trailer for the minisodes and we get a quick little glimpse at Bandit chasing Bluey in “Hungry,” Nana reading a story in “Letter,” and more episodes premiering soon.

Disney previously shared a clip from “Burger Dog,” which seems to hinge on the premise that there are certain beloved children’s songs that grown-ups just. cannot. stand. (I think we’ve all been there, right?) In the case of Bluey it’s “Burger Dog,” a sing-songy, kind of pop kind of EDM earworm written by show composer Joff Bush.

If you find you just can’t wait for your next dose of Bluey — or want a better idea of what a “minisode” is like, you can watch the 20 existing shorts (also called “bonus bits”) on the official Bluey website and YouTube. A complete list of minisodes currently available can be found on the fan-run site Blueypedia. The moments stand on their own, but often augment moments or gags from full-episodes, like my personal favorite, “Archaeology,” which gives us more insight into Bandit’s job.

And before anyone asks: no, we still haven’t heard anything about when Season 4 will be released. All we do know is that show-runners have said they plan on taking a break for a while, so don’t hold your breath just yet. All the more reason to savor these delightful little Bluey morsels in July.
