The Magic Words For Scooby Doo & The Goblin King
ALLAH!!!
That magic word means 'God' in Arabic languages.
Just In Time!
I'm glad the Bluey episode Camping, AKA Survival, is airing this afternoon, because guess what? Tomorrow, I'm working on the The 'Hood special Survival, which features a camping trip turning into an adventure to hunt for lost treasure, with lots of bushtucker survival tactics along the way. Aussies, you may have watched stuff like Deadly 60, Are You Tougher Than Your Ancestors and Bushwhacked, but never have you seen Izzy, Bluey and the rest of the gang fight for survival like never before! Tune in tomorrow! If I can get the link right, which is good because there's a link button when you create a blog post. The survival adventure is on...

Dog Loves Owl
I'm afraid that Dog Loves Amazing Facts is the last Dog Loves Books episode we'll see for now, but luckily it reminded me of Owl from Winnie The Pooh. Why? Because this episode contains an owl in it. Watch it on iPlayer, it'll make perfect sense:

My Favourite Part Of Scooby Doo & The Alien Invaders
My favourite part of Scooby Doo & The Alien Invaders is Shaggy's fantasy about spending time with Crystal and Amber. Scooby and Shaggy climb a mountain, dive under the sea, ride a boat on the ocean with a whale and buy hot dogs from a hot dog stand in the desert, with Crystal and Amber following behind. Scooby Doo bounces on a pogo stick! Shaggy is given a feast with ice creams, chicken and cake by Crystal, the entire gang attends Shaggy and Crystal's (and Scooby and Amber's) wedding in their best and fancy clothes (it would be best if they put a 101 Dalmatians reference in there), Shaggy and Crystal spend time in a psychedelic patterned bedroom with lots of records and finally, we see Scooby, Amber, Shaggy and Crystal walking down the street wheeling a pram which contains their baby and about 10 puppies! I wish they did more sequences like this for when either Scooby or Shaggy gets a love interest...
Why 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight' Wasn't Featured In Scooby Doo & The Alien Invaders
First Day Got Your Tongue?
Still suffering from the depression caused by First Day? Don't worry, there's something that'll cheer you Aussies up on ABC iView: the Aboriginal series Little J & Big Cuz!

I've Decided To Set The The 'Hood Episode 'War Child' On A Snowy Day
Setting an episode of a children's show about deployment on a snowy day really gives it that heartwarming tone and helps children going through the same situations do what Rusty and the other members of Izzy's gang do in the episode.
Here, the gang is playing in the snow with Bluey and her friends, when they learn that Rusty is deployed, and is eagerly waiting for his father to come home from the military. They help him plan a daily routine, and Rusty lives by it. At Calypso's school, Rusty is finally developing happy feelings and knows that someday soon he'll see his brave soldier dad again.
In one scene in the episode, the kids have a snowball fight in the park. This shocks Rusty, as he imagines being out on the battlefield with guns blazing from the getgo. He hides in a crate for safety, but it's not before Izzy and the gang help him out of his traumatic fantasy. I know, this may sound scary to youngsters, but that's part of a child's worries about growing up deployed.
The series also deals with other serious subjects Aussie kids struggle to understand, such as alcohol, same-sex relationships and gender stereotypes, creating an all-ages programme all children and adults can relate to.
