It's not really going to have the same impact when you don't have the emotional investment in the characters and story.

There's a big doubt about the Dad moving away to a different city for a better paying job is the right decision. His wife and Bluey don't really want to but the little sister Bingo seems fine about it. The entire episode is about that doubt but also about how things will work out how they are supposed to. The episode is called The Sign because Bluey and her cousins are convinced if they remove the For Sale sign they won't have to move.

On moving day Bingo finally realizing the gravitas of moving. She misunderstood that someone buying the house means they need to leave and move to a different city. So with tears in her eyes she desperately tries to remove the sign. Immediately after this there's a montage of the family pondering and remembering all the good times they've had in the house which references a lot of the older episodes.

Right at the end it's revealed all the little things happening throughout the episode has had a chaos theory style effect of the house buyers finding a house they would rather move into so they back out of the sale. This leads to the Dad getting the call and deciding to remove the sign leading to the emotional catharsis of not just the episode but the show in general.

It's mundane but that's the point. We all can relate to how the little things lead us on a path and being unsure if we're doing the right things.
