 Bluey has smashed viewing figure records to become Australia's biggest ever show. The hit animated series – which follows a Blue Heeler pup and her family, including dad Bandit, mum Chilli and sister Bingo – started Down Under before taking over the world, and it's still beloved by Aussie viewers. The most recent season pulled in an incredible 11 million viewers. Producers shared their appreciation on social media as they tweeted a photo of Bluey holding up a 'thank you' sign with a love heart on it. The sweet post hailed the programme as 'the biggest little show in Australia'. These numbers include the total audiences who watched across all platforms on ABC and ABC iview since April. The broadcaster thanked viewers on social media (Picture: ABC/Facebook) The total figure was reached by combining ratings from Australia's five major capital cities, viewers in regional centres, encore viewing and hours streamed on playback. The figures for individual episodes are also high, with 12.7 million people watching 'Cubby' at the top of the charts. The newest episodes from the third season are now available internationally after airing in Australia earlier this year. Cricket left viewers in tears (Picture: ABC) However, some people who have already tuned in are now warning others about the emotional rollercoaster to come, with many left in tears.

I just finished it and I can't stop crying.' And a different person said: 'Not me crying at #Bluey #Onesies I know that feeling well.'
