Bluey is not on Paramount Plus

Bluey streams on Disney Plus, not Paramount Plus. The show is owned by Disney, which acquired it through its ownership of ABC Studios. Paramount Plus carries other children's programming, but Bluey is exclusive to Disney's platform.

If you have a Paramount Plus subscription, you will not find Bluey there. You will need a Disney Plus account to watch the series. Disney Plus includes the entire catalog of Bluey episodes released so far, plus the movie that came out in 2024.

Key Takeaways

  • Bluey streams only on Disney Plus, not on Paramount Plus or any other major streaming service.
  • Disney Plus offers all released episodes of the series plus the Bluey movie, included with a standard subscription.
  • You can watch Bluey through a Disney Plus standalone subscription or as part of the Disney Bundle, which also includes Hulu and ESPN Plus.
  • Some cable packages include Disney Plus access, so check your current provider before paying for a separate subscription.

How to watch Bluey on Disney Plus

Start by going to disneyplus.com or downloading the Disney Plus app on your device. Create an account or sign in if you already have one. Search for "Bluey" in the search bar at the top of the screen.

The show appears as a series tile. Click on it to see all available seasons and episodes. Episodes are organized by season, and you can start from season one or jump to any episode you have already seen. The Bluey movie is listed separately in the search results and can be watched the same way.

Disney Plus works on phones, tablets, computers, smart TVs, and streaming devices like Roku, Apple TV, and Amazon Fire Stick. You can read episodes to watch offline on the mobile app, which is useful if you are traveling or have spotty internet.

Disney Plus subscription options and cost

Disney Plus offers two subscription tiers. The standard plan includes all content but shows ads during episodes. The premium plan removes ads entirely. Both plans cost different amounts depending on whether you pay monthly or annually, and prices change periodically.

The Disney Bundle combines Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN Plus at a lower total price than buying each separately. This bundle is worth considering if you watch content on any of those three services. You can choose whether to include ads on Disney Plus and Hulu or remove them, which affects the bundle price.

Some cable and internet providers include Disney Plus access with certain packages. Check your current provider's website or call customer service to see if you already have it included before paying for a separate subscription.

What to do if you cannot access Disney Plus

If you do not have a Disney Plus subscription and cannot get one through your cable provider, you have limited options for watching Bluey legally. The show is not available on free streaming services, rental platforms, or purchase-to-own services like iTunes or Amazon Prime Video.

Some libraries offer streaming access through services like Hoopla or Kanopy, which may include Disney content. Check your local library's website to see what streaming services they partner with. This is a free option if your library participates.

Disney Plus offers a free trial period in some regions, though the length and availability of free trials change. Check the Disney Plus website to see if a trial is currently available in your area.

Why Bluey is only on Disney Plus

Bluey is produced by ABC Studios, which is owned by Disney. Disney owns the rights to the show and distributes it through its own streaming platform. This is common practice in the streaming era — studios keep their most popular content on their own services rather than licensing it to competitors.

Paramount Plus, owned by Paramount Global, carries shows and movies from Paramount's own studios and some licensed content, but it does not have the rights to Bluey. The two companies do not share content libraries.

Other children's shows on Paramount Plus

If you have a Paramount Plus subscription and are looking for children's programming, the service does carry shows like PAW Patrol, Dora the Explorer, and SpongeBob SquarePants. These are available to stream with a standard subscription.

Paramount Plus also carries some Nickelodeon content, since Paramount owns Nickelodeon. However, not every Nickelodeon show is on the platform — licensing varies by title and region.
