Citing these reasons, the episode was then blocked on Disney+ for American audiences. Disney has now confirmed that it is planning to ''reevaluate'' the episode and assured that it will soon arrive on the platform for US viewers.

The fake trial has Chilli as the judge while Bingo and her brother are called in as witnesses. Here's the official description of the episode, according to ABC iview: ''When Dad's accused of 'fluffing' in Bluey's face as he climbed out of bed, he's put on trial with Mum as the judge and Bluey and Bingo as witnesses. But what was Bluey doing there?'' As per TVLine, a Disney representative mentioned that they are planning to ''reevaluate'' the blocked episode, after it was initially held back when the media giant acquired the popular animated series. The full statement reads (obtained via TVLine): "Family Meeting’ will roll out on U.S. platforms soon. Some of the Bluey content did not meet Disney Junior broadcast [standards and practices] at the time the series was acquired. Now that it is rolling out on other platforms, it is a great opportunity to reevaluate, which is what we plan to do.'' Disney is yet to reveal the date of the episode's release on the platform for US viewers. This is not the first time that Disney has blocked episodes from the animated series. According to The Guardian, quite a few episodes of the show were blocked previously, key among them being Dad Baby, which features a character pretending to be pregnant. The episodes Teasing and Flat Pack were also subject to censorship, citing ''racial connotations.''
