The Doctor (Bluey)

The Doctor is the 18th episode of mh:besttvshows:Bluey that aired on October 18, 2018.

Why This Episode is in a "Pickle"

 * 1) The episode feels like a torture episode for Bandit and Bluey's friends. This can also be justified for the next pointer below.
 * 2) Bingo didn't "operate" Coco, Indy and Bandit at the end of the episode, but when will Bluey imagine that she "fired" Bingo from the "job", ending the episode? Unless they didn't want the episode to run too long, it still should've happened at least.
 * 3) Speaking of which, the pretend illness that Bluey's friends and parents get, while still humorous, also feels rather harsh at the same time.
 * 4) The episode overall feels somewhat boring.
 * 5) Pointless ending: the episode simply ends with Bandit covered in toilet paper surrounded by "snakes", only to wait until Bingo finishes her current “operation”, ending the episode on a (possibly) cliffhanger.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The title card is animated instead of still, just like with a few other episodes.
 * 2) It still has its share of funny moments.
 * 3) Likewise, the ending is so ridiculous that it might come off as unintentionally funny.
 * 4) Like every other Bluey episode, it has a good message (in this instance, it's about being patient).
 * 5) Good music and animation as usual.

Trivia

 * There is an error in the closed captions in both the ABC iView and iTunes, when Snickers said that he cuddled a cactus in the ABC iView closed captions, it says that he was caught in the cactus while in iTunes the closed captions say that he totalled a cactus.
