I told him the show got cancelled and he looked devastated so I said 'Nah just kidding, it's still on. I'm just bingo in real life.' He had no idea what I was talking about but he laughed anyway because I looked ridiculous doing the voice.
Ha! The Bingo comment is perfect. I do stuff like that with my kids during the week and they usually just stare at me confused. Did he eventually get the reference?
Dude, that's hilarious. My 1yo can't even understand the joke yet but I'm already preparing my Bluey material for when he gets older.
Solid move keeping him thinking the show was still on. That's the kind of dad move I respect, even if the joke went over his head.
The look on his face must have been priceless before the relief. That's peak dad move right there.
I tried something similar with my daughter and she didn't find it funny at all, just got mad at me. Your kid has a good sense of humor.
That's hilarious and brutal at the same time. My 4yo would have had an actual meltdown and probably not forgiven me for a week. The fake-out joke is risky territory with the little ones.
Kids take Bluey seriously. That's a funny move but he might actually be paranoid about the show getting cancelled now.
That's pretty good parenting right there. Getting him worried then relieving him. He probably won't forget that fake out for a while though.
Ha, I get the joke but man don't do that to a 4yo. They're gonna be nervous about it now whenever you say something about the show.
Haha solid parenting moment right there. The relief he probably felt when you said just kidding was probably worth it. This is the kind of stuff they remember when they're older.

Haha that's cruel and I respect it. Kids have no chill when it comes to their favorite shows. Did he believe you for a second?
