Bluey is back on our screens, with last week\u2019s Ghostbasket \u2013 the first new episode in a year \u2013 teasing that change is on the horizon for Bluey Heeler and the rest of her canine family.<\/p>\n

But things could go even further than what the episode itself implies at the end.<\/p>\n

Bluey creator Joe Brumm recently spoke to Deadline<\/a> about the possibility of ageing up the beloved characters.<\/p>\n

Since Bluey and her sister Bingo\u2019s adventures are often drawn from Brumm\u2019s own experiences raising two daughters and encouraging free play, will they continue to inspire him as they grow up?<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be fascinating \u2014 and we get a lot of requests to age the characters up,\u201d Brumm told the publication.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would completely change the show, but there would be something really sweet about bringing through the new younger characters and having Bluey and Bingo at that babysitting age. That would definitely make a bunch of fans very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

We\u2019re certain Bluey and Bingo\u2019s approach to babysitting would make for plenty of shenanigans.<\/p>\n

Though Brumm is open to the idea of ageing the beloved characters up, we\u2019ll get to see them go through some other changes first.<\/p>

Ghostbasket seemed to imply the Heelers could be moving house. And there\u2019s the matter of length. Upcoming episode The Sign is the longest Bluey entry yet, clocking in at half an hour \u2013 four times longer than usual.<\/p>\n
