They wouldn't be so popular if kids didn't like them.

They aren't popular though. Modern kids don't want to hear Hansel and Gretel, they want to watch Bluey. Because what kid wants to hear about a couple of German kids getting lured by a cannibal and eaten?

How the hell is bluey so universally liked by kids tho what is the illusive secret sauce to it that the kids can't resist watching it

It's a colourful dog, of course kids like watching it. Every generation has a colourful dog.

Seriously when will they finally cut the filler and make that bomb that they have been teasing.

They're popular because scary stories are a very effective method of getting children to obey. Just look at religion.
