Who just figured out ’Blue’s Clues’?
We just got a letter. We just got a letter. We just got a letter. Wonder who it’s from? Nickelodeon, which announced today that Blue’s Clues is getting a “refreshed signature look.” The original Emmy award-winning series blended live action with animation, ran from 1996 to 2006, and featured two hosts: Steve Burns, who is alive and obsessed with Walmart, and Donovan Patton, who is also alive but not obsessed with Walmart (as far as we know).
Blue’s Clues combined three things children love: catchy songs (like you don’t remember the lyrics to “Here’s the Mail”), interacting with the television, and adorable animals (and less-adorable talking spices). The simplicity was genius.
It was also very educational.
Nickelodeon just figured out that a new generation of kids might love Blue’s Clues, and now they feel really smart.
