After last week’s emotional “Bluey” special “The Sign,” fans of the animated preschool series are getting a special treat — a surprise, if you will.

On Saturday, Disney+ announced that a new episode of “Bluey” titled “Surprise” will premiere Sunday, beginning at midnight Pacific time. It comes just a week after the premiere of the 28-minute special “The Sign,” which sees Bluey, a Blue Heeler puppy, and her family celebrating a wedding while grappling with an upcoming move to a new city — only to make the decision to stay.

Executive producer Daley Pearson and “Bluey” voice actors Melanie Zanetti and Dave McCormack explain how “The Sign,” the highly anticipated 28-minute special, was made.

Little is known about the new episode, with the exception of an image that was released by Disney+ that shows Bingo, Bandit and Bluey in a playroom. However, it’s sure to spark discussion about what’s next for the beloved family of dogs after “The Sign” spurred thought pieces and emotional reactions from viewers. The show is known to tackle big subjects — including infertility, aging and relationships — that keep parents invested and engaged while delighting children.
