@@jerotoro2021 The point is to, despite all the negative things in tge world, concentrate on the positive things and how you can better your life and yourself
I grew up watching Mr. Rogers, Mr. Dress Up, and Blues Clues...Magic School Bus...Arthur...the 90s and early 2000s were a special time, I wish we could go back.
I remember being so sad as a child when Steve left, it was like watching your best friend move. Then when his video came out in 2021 saying hi to us I honestly cried a little and was surprised by how much it meant to see him and hear him address what happened. My son watches Blues clues now and I was dreading getting to the episode where Steve left. I sat and watched the whole thing with him, and it was sad all over again. Watching my son ask where he was in the next episode and explaining that sometimes people leave when they grow up. Decades later and he is still teaching curiosity and actual life lessons.
As a former certified Blue’s Clues kid, I think that the main appeal of the show to kid’s back then, and Steve references this, is the way that Steve spoke to the children. There is a certain level of respect that he gave the preschool viewership, speaking to them like human beings and asking them “What do you think?” It’s hard to imagine when you’re an adult, but as a kid, adults don’t really talk to you very often. They speak at you, but they don’t engage with you as another person. I think kids appreciated someone speaking to them, through the television set, in a way that made them feel respected and comfortable. I think that’s why people my age became attached to Steve as 3-6 year olds.
Steve leaving the show was so difficult for me when I was little. I actually stopped watching it all together until this year when I had my own son. When that video surfaced of Steve saying he left for college and was proud of us, I was at work and immediately started crying lol. I guess the little girl in me really needed to hear that. ❤
As a mom whose older children watched Blue’s Clues, I just always wanted to thank Steve. He was a joy to watch and didn’t patronize the children, and that is a really tough thing to do. Now, my oldest daughter feels such nostalgia at anything Blue’s Clues and has such a love, even now, for Steve.
I really loved this show and so did my kids. Steve will live in our hearts forever. 💕 He made my kids so engaged that even now as teens they really investigate their world.
I spent many hours with my grandson watching Steve and Blues Clues, it was part of our daily routine for years. Blues Clues was a big part of what formed the relationship my grandson and I have today.
Man what a super wholesome and genuine guy. I feel bad for him having to hear all the horrible things people were imagining about what happened to him.
@@bornofstardust5910 rude stuff :( that's the stuff that coming back doesn't always clear. Better people used a quick 30 seconds on Google instead haha
Yeah I heard he got kicked off the show because he overdosed on drugs. That broke my heart because he was my hero. It's nice to know that didn't happen and he just lived a normal life. But it's also sad that people mad up rumors like that about him just because he left. Smh.
@@erinjordon829 Think that might have evolved from the crazy rumor about a Barney actor getting caught with cocaine. That actor actually received death threats for years. Glad that rumor never went so far for Steve.
We still watch your era of Blues Clues in our home Steve. Our youngest is on the spectrum and you, Joe, and Josh give him a world that he feels confident about himself in. The smiles that your show generates for him is priceless to us. As a parent, I can't thank you enough for your contribution to that.
Imagine finally graduating after years of mental stress & depression from feeling like a failure, and Steve greets you with open arms at the other end of the stage saying, "See? You're a winner after all. I knew you could do it, I always believed in you". 🥺
I was a bit too old for Blue's Clues, yet I would watch it sometimes just because it was so positive and colorful and thoughtful. This was cool to see and Im glad dude is alive and well.
Just when I thought I couldn't love this man any more. They should do an adult spinoff catered to the kids who watched him but are all grown now. He seems to have experienced a fair bit and has such a calm comedic aura to him. Call it Blues Clued or something.
@@brambleheart That's not calming though. It's a very different spirit. And Dora was definitely not catered to adults, but to YOUNG teens and adults who wanted to introduce her to their kids since they had always watched her. I think why my man up there is saying is more like a chilled out actual hangout in the house with Steve, only now he pets the dog and chats life with you. Omg hold on an idea for a RUclips I must leave now
2021 was the absolute worst for us. My 10 week old daughter died of SIDS. I wouldn’t wish that horrific pain on literally any human. I thought my heart would physically fail to beat. It felt like dying while still alive. Steve and his message was so comforting, honestly. 💗 Brought back some of those happy memories just when our family needed it most.
This takes me back to watching Blues Clues with my oldest son. Such precious memories. I kept the Blues Clues video because I just couldn’t bear to give it away.
That was a great video. Also, that was my first time hearing Steve's voice since I used to watch Blue's Clues as a kid. Holy crap, what a soothing, calming, pleasing voice to listen to.
All the death rumors really devastated me as a kid hearing those first few rumors. He’s such a legend shows and creators from back then were very much good people and on another level 💖💖💖
I was too old for blues clues when it came out growing up, but I still am extremely touched by everything Steve has been to all of us currently. He seems like the genuine article. Seeing him when I was younger, and seeing him now still pushing such positive messages with such obvious belief in his messages warms my heart. Thanks for everything Steve. You're an American treasure
my childhood oh God it's like a PTSD flashback God I miss it I wanna go back but I know I can't and I'm also okay with that I grew up just like he did the respect that my generation has for this man is just heartwarming
I can’t even imagine that they’d probably be arguing about whether to follow pawprints or The Map while the fox steals everything from Backpack and Sidetable drawer now they gotta find a way to work together to get everything back
@@rocko5766 thank you well I just wrote the scene like I pictured it in my head. I write kids stories on my Braille writer nothing publish worthy but I read what I wrote when I volunteer at daycares and children’s churches
@@rocko5766 I wish i could read and sing with the kids remotely as I’m in bed a lot these days with epileptic seizures and my head hurts pretty bad sometimes. But if i could do something from my bed I could leave immediately if a seizure were starting
I was very fortunate to meet Steve earlier this year. Such a genuinely wonderful person in so many ways. It’s nice how Blue’s Clues is an homage to Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, another childhood show that means so much to me. I’ll forever be appreciative of Steve and his presence in our lives.
I was a teenager when I discovered Blues Clues, and I should have been way beyond the age of liking that show, but anytime it came on I would watch the whole show… It just gave me good feelings, and I think it helped me through difficult days by serving as a distraction from life. This guy was, and STILL IS awesome. Glad he ain’t dead!! 😂
I was a teenager when he was on, too, and watched with the kids I babysat every week. I loved it as much as they did! When I had kids of my own, we watched all the old Steve episodes because he was, and still is, my favorite. I sobbed like a little kid when he did his 2021 video - it felt like the reassuring hug that I didn’t realize I needed.
I think I was somewhere in my early twenties. I watched cartoons as any kid, and I basically never stopped. I still love animation. What drew me to Blue's Clues wasn't the animation though, there just wasn't that much there. It was the host, always wearing that green striped sweater. His energy. I mostly remember the little notepad and Steve drawing (as far as in aware, you just saw the hands drawing I think). The drawings were simple, but so satisfying to watch come into existence. I didn't actively go looking for Blues Clues, often I would watch it because another cartoon I did actively look for would come after. But it was a bit of a guilty pleasure. I very obviously wasn't the target audience, but I still found it entertaining to watch. There is no nostalgia factor for me, but there are fond memories. Dora is a very different show. I'm inclined to agree there is something to be said for a more open ended question like "what do you think" opposed to "where on the current screen do you see this picture right now?". I don't think I can compare the two shows, they are too different. Right now, Bluey is the big thing for this particular target audience. And whilst it is also a very different show, I feel like it is more similar to Blue's Clues in spirit. And the name is a nice coincidence. I kinda like the idea of Bluey being a descendant of Blue. Carrying the torch, as it where. I'm sure for parents everywhere Bluey is a lot more tolerable to watch with your kid than Dora ever was, and I feel like that was also the case for Blue's Clues. Not a parent myself though, so it is an assumption. Within the animation fan community (and I'm sure outside of it as well), there is a certain phrase that is pretty universally disliked. "It's just a kid movie/show". This phrase is usually uttered after a line like "who cares if it's poorly/ cheaply animated/dumb/simple/lazy/unimaginative" or "Who cares if it has poor writing/plotholes/cliche characters/etc". Basically saying that it doesn't have to be intelligent if its for kids, therefore saying that intelligent television is wasted on kids. That's nonsense of course, and a bad excuse for being lazy/a cashgrab without any creativity. It insults a kids intelligence. Blue's Clues definitely didn't do that. It was aimed at a certain demographic/ age group, but it respected that age group. Dora, at the end of the day, less so. Let me stress though, I'm saying 'less so'. Not 'not at all'. Dora is nowhere near bottom of the barrel.
I loved putting blue's clues on after school. It was such a chill vibe. I don't remember when I first started watching, but I know that I kept watching as school work got harder and harder. Having a calming friendly presence made the homework stack much easier to approach.
He kind has a point though…in Early Childhood Education open ended questions and positive feedback loops are considered high quality scaffolding whereas Dora’s call and response method is good at gauging recall and retention it doesn’t exactly allow for more language and creative thought. Both are necessary for cognitive development, but open ended questions really give room to grow. I know you didn’t comment anticipating a serious response but I felt the need to say he ain’t wrong lol.
I started watching the show with my nieces. I CRUSHED HARD on Steve. I mean... kind, curious, caring, a good listener, great with kids, handsome, playful... etc, but most of all, Genuine. And I think we could all feel that. You are so beloved, Steve!!! ALWAYS!!!❤
Steve I LOVE YOU. Was already a teenager, but watching made me feel ok. It let me know, that it is ok to be yourself. Was alone alot after school, but watching just made me forget life. 💙
I watched Fred Rogers as a child, watched Steve Burns as a parent watching with my children, it was wonderful to experience them both within different life roles.
the way we’ve grown is crazy. i can’t believe how different we all look steve looked so different on the show and it breaks my heart to to that and i honestly don’t know. i’m literally breaking down right now 🩶🤍
Watching this with Steve whilst we looked back at some episodes, I unlocked so many memories I didn’t know I had. I’m a ‘97 baby and this was part of my earliest childhood memories!
I grew up watching Steve and when he left to college I was confused and it was honestly really traumatic. That one video he made for the 25th anniversary gave so much closure and to see that Blues Clues meant so much to him just as it did to me makes me really happy :)
Loved you on Blues Clues! My kids grew up with you, and it was a show I felt good letting them watch!! You’re missed, and still very loved. Such fond memories.❤🥰
I'm 30. and I was shocked at how comforting I found his message in 2021. he was my fav person on blues clues. and I remember hearing all the crazy rumors when I was young. glad hes in a great place he seems like hes a pretty decent human irl which is even better!
He was so missed before this, and I’m so glad this opportunity for him to share has come along. I cried like a baby during his anniversary message, and the trailer got a couple tears too. I’m excited still, like I’m six.
Oh man. This brought up so much memories. Blues clues was my favourite tv show growing up. I used to have a blues clue plushie I carried around everywhere. And then when Steve left, it just never was the same and I believe I grieved because I couldn't look at a single blues clues show again I'm so happy to hear he came back and that he's doing well
I'm glad you're alive and well steve. We miss you. You were a cornerstone in our childhood and we're thankful for your wholesomeness. You're a good dude
When I was a child I watched the episode when he went to college and I really cried knowing that I wasn’t going to see him 😂 I had 3 in that moment…beautiful
what’s insane is I’m exactly 20 years old when this was released. I definitely cried when he came back with that video addressing us. he was definitely my childhood growing up and it’s just nice to see him doing okay ❤️
I've always been someone that applied tools to other things and found solutions to problems that may have other solutions, and it's all because of Blue's Clues, I'll always remember the episode about levers, and simple machines. As well as the episode about buying blue a birthday present, the little turtle. A lesson about learning about others and financial spending, as well as applied thinking. As you said. "What do you think?" Those words definitely resonate in me, and I always ask people what they think, I want to know because my curiousness due to blue's clues knows no bounds. Appreciate you Steve. I hope to pass videos of your adventures to my kids and encourage that same kind of thinking in them too.
I was born in 95 and grew up on this show (of course I stopped watching it around age 6 and haven't seen it since then). My son is almost 3 and I just put it on for him for the first time today (they have it on Amazon Prime). 5 minutes into the first episode and my son is laughing or smiling at almost everything Steve says and does. Now he is an official Blue's Clues fan! 💙 This guy has such a gentle compassionate soul, you can feel his warmth and energy through the screen whenever he speaks. He really is like another Mr. Rogers. We must protect this man at all costs. Love him.
We all love you Steve!! Thanks for being there for us as children. Seeing you talk about life makes me happy. Also that orange VHS blues clues tape made my childhood. Much love ♥
I was so obsessed with this show growing up I used to have the same exact doodle pad and crayon and I remember always getting so so excited to see what he was gonna draw next…perhaps that’s why I like art so much now as an adult. Man…this guy is my hero.😭
I grew up with Steve, me and my little brother always watched him, I remember that video they released with him, and it made me cry. He was the friend we all needed, thanks Steve for being there for us.
I was shocked when Steve left blues clues. I was from school, sick, and I turned on the tv and it wasn’t Steve on blues clues. I was still a kid but older maybe fifth or sixth grade. It tore my heart up!
My local news said you had joined your ancestors and that sat heavy on my heart my whole childhood 💔 this was everything to me seeing you well and alive blues clues was never the same with out you Steve ❤
I'm so lucky that Steve left for college about the same time that I did; I was able to follow his musical career (Songs for Dustmites is full of Blue's Clues-esque songs) and get the weekly affirmations online when the death rumors were swirling!
When I was a kid, reading those rumors made me so sad because I thought he really died. Now I’m just mad that someone would make such things up like that for clout. 😤
Wow... this is a nice bit of closure for us kids born in the early 90s. To know Steve turned out alright and happy and healthy... not something I knew I needed. Thank you
I was a teenager working in preschool with Steve and Blue in the background of my memories. I love Steve and Joe was great too. So much better than todays over stimulated shows. Not cutting the scenes speakers to that. Todays shows switches scenes every few seconds cause kids to not be able to focus on one thing too long. We need to the simpler things again
I'm too old to have watched it myself. But I babysat my nephew a lot and we watched blues clues together all the time. This video felt nostalgic for me too. It was good to hear from you Steve 😝
I didn't grow up with Joe, or Josh. I grew up with Steve, so he's like the big brother I never had. His voice and face are the ones I remember. Call it a generational thing that all kids who grew up in the late 90s/early 00s, but to me, Steve is the OG voice of Blue's Clues.
Yes; after Steve left I tried to give Joe a chance but it never hit the same and maybe that's just what happens when hosts leave a show, but I remember waiting for Steve to come back from "college" and after a while I realized that he wasn't going to so I stopped watching.
@@lizzyrank5405 also joe didnt wait long enough for our answers & found everything too quick 😭 but i will say nowadays its nice to see him because he seems lovely and is pretty hot
Same, l was born in the early 90's so Steve was a part of my childhood too 🤗 I don't remember much of the show when Joe came along, just that he didn't have the same energy or vibe as Steve had and not too long after that I stopped watching Blues Clues.
@@Drewit1I met him at NYCC too and I even went to his his panel and got to video chat with him and he was such a kind and down to earth guy, I was 2 states away from NY but the fact I got to meet him was such worth the trip
the trauma of him going to college was not just national, it was INTERNATIONAL. I remember the day my brother sat me down and told me Steve had left for college and someone else would be taking over, it's burned into my memory because I think that's the first time my heart cracked open. The message during the pandemic had me bawling like crazy. It's so gladdening to see glimpses of Steve like this, to see that his life turned out well and that he's thriving still.
The greatest thing that Steve brought to the show was that he truly cared about the kids he was talking to, just like Fred Rogers. This wasn't just a gig for him. He still cares, which is why we love him.
I’m slightly embarrassed to say, Steve’s little talk with us last year actually made me tear up. To me it was like an old teacher who I trusted coming back to tell me everything will be ok. It felt so real and genuinely warmed my heart Edit: After seeing everyone’s replies, I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt this way!
Nothing To Be embarrassed about I cry every time I see the regular Show Series Finale 😂😂. Heck I sometimes cry when I see actors who died on TV shows that I loved
@@justinvanveenar2953 Yeah I just cried because I watched an old favorite just now and one the character’s actor died several years ago but it still felt fresh when I saw him 😢
I'm a 35 year-old man, and hearing this guy's voice is like listening to my grandfather to my brain. It's the most surreal experience I've ever had. I watched this in tears. I was too old for Blue's Clues by the time I watched it. But I had much younger sisters, and I can remember sitting in the floor with them in the mornings before school and encouraging them to play along with Steve because they were so quiet. We didn't live in a loving home. Steve was my model for how to be a good big brother.
I remember the episode announcing it. My brother and I lost our little minds. 😅🤣 we were like "WHO'S THIS DOUCHEBAG AND WHY DOES STEVE HAVE TO GO TO COLLEGE?"
I never truly realized how smart and thoughtful Steve was. You can tell he's very empathetic. It makes me happy to see how he can talk about his time at Blues Clues so fondly. It just seems like he's learned a lot about himself and the world, and it's cool to hear him talk about it. Very inspirational guy!
He has an album Songs for Dustmites I think was the title. He really gave his all in this album. Give it a listen and you will get to know more about who Steve really is!
His heart speaks through his voice. It’s palpable, warm, caring. My child self feels so safe watching these videos with him and it surprises me every time! Not nostalgia…. I feel love, and appreciation coming from him every time he comes on screen.
I genuinely believe Blue Clue’s changed Steve’s life. He was just a goofy 23-year-old who got a kid’s show gig and it’s shaped his worldview and personality ever since. Who knows who he would have been without the opportunity, and how different we’d be without him.
"I just wanna say, over all of these years, I never forgot you!" When that first dropped, I was almost in tears. Both of my daughters were toddlers when Blues Clues came out and it was such a huge part of our lives and something we bonded over. It was like reconnecting with someone who had a profound impact on your life, who had somehow remained frozen in time like our memories of him. 10 years later I had my first son, and he grew up with Joe. 12 years later I had my second son, and he's growing up with Josh. Blues Clue's is to millennials, gen z and the next generation what Sesame Street was to children of the 70s and 80s. What an amazing show!
It is a shame that he didn't maintain SOME social presence, there are too few good role models these days for western children. We dont have any Mr Rogers or Bob Ross type of people being featured across media anymore "except the resurgence of some of their media online, which is not a big enough exposure for all of us."
There’s just something about him that just calms me and puts me at ease. He really was the Mister Rogers of that time. Now my daughter watches blues clues and loves him!
We watch the originals of blues clues my kids all watched blues clues and my 6 year still watches them! I’m 41 my nephew and I watched when it was new he’s married with a kid and my oldest is 18 youngest 6
I love Steve, but nobody can possibly be compared to Mister Rogers, and what he did for mental health, acceptance of others, and mainly acceptance of oneself and that it’s ok to feel a certain way. I’m not trying to be a dick. I guess just after watching documentaries about Mr. Rogers, how he convinced the government for extra funding because his show was a needed service, and so many other positive things… That dude was a saint.
that was one the things i noticed in original video and was surprised that nobody said anything about in the comments i don't even know ASL, i don't know my country's sign language, i usually only interact with deaf people on uber but i've seen this sign somewhere else and i don't even remember where
I was a original fan at the time of blues clues and thru the years I never ever heard if a death rumor this surprised me to have to see what he had to say lol
They pulled the same B.S. with Lou Gehrig. Just a few years after he retired from baseball, there were rumors that he died as well. I swear, you can't make this stuff up.
@@sc30002001 he left because he was going bald and didn't want to do so on tv. When he left he went to pursue music. There is no evidence of him having any legal trouble.
I will never forget the time Steve drew a cube and it blew my mind: I thought it would have to be just a square because drawings were flat, but he drew two squares and connected them to show a three dimensional shape and my whole perspective of art changed. I remember filling a whole page with 3d shapes in purple crayons that day. 😂😢❤
I don't think we, as a people could ever convey what you mean to our generation. My twin sons were born in 2003 at 25 weeks and we lost one. My surviving son was addicted to your show, and you specifically. You and Dora got me, as a father, through some terrible times. You were a friend to my son in the moments I broke down. Your lessons reached across the age gaps and helped us as a family to live, and love again.
The reason we felt so heartbroken when Steve left was because we were a generation where a LOT of us had dysfunctional, or broken, homes and families. Our needs and emotions about things were brushed under the rug. Steve has such an amazing talent for talking to you as if there’s no one more he cares about in the world. He felt truly grateful for our help, and seemed to genuinely look at us and care about our opinions we were yelling at the screen. Very few people could do it with that much genuineness. He made us feel seen. For me, he was one of very few people in my childhood who made me feel important. It seems silly because it was just a kids show, but it’s true. I waited all day for blues clues to come on. I cried the day they aired the episode of him leaving, even though I was a year or two out of my blues clues phase, I watched with my little brother and was so sad he was going. Idk if he’s a match for Steve, but my kids watch Josh now, and he’s also very talented.
Decades later. Same person, same feelings. We need this in this fast changing awful world.
The world isn’t that bad.
Sorry your world is awful. :(
I LOVE YOU STEVE!!!!
@@Shimenjii You must not get out much... I envy you.
@@jerotoro2021 The point is to, despite all the negative things in tge world, concentrate on the positive things and how you can better your life and yourself
I think we need Steve Burns back in our lives. He's our generations Mr. Rogers. The way he speaks to you, his calmness, his empathy.
Yes!!!! 100% he should be the new Mr Rogers!
I grew up with them both. They are their own men with a passion that is so… rare on TV these days. They are angels we need.
I would pay for this Kickstarter Show. Just call it, "Steve' and have it just be Steve doing random stuff and talking to kids and their parents.
I grew up watching Mr. Rogers, Mr. Dress Up, and Blues Clues...Magic School Bus...Arthur...the 90s and early 2000s were a special time, I wish we could go back.
Omg soo true he is our gen’s Mr. Rogers!

No we all cried trust me
Hell, us parents were sad when Steve left too! Show was never the same after.
I cried, too. That was tough seeing for a second time.
I couldn’t have said it any better. Such a shining light when the 2021 video came out
Nah for sure, I cried at the trailer too!
As a former certified Blue’s Clues kid, I think that the main appeal of the show to kid’s back then, and Steve references this, is the way that Steve spoke to the children. There is a certain level of respect that he gave the preschool viewership, speaking to them like human beings and asking them “What do you think?”
It’s hard to imagine when you’re an adult, but as a kid, adults don’t really talk to you very often. They speak at you, but they don’t engage with you as another person. I think kids appreciated someone speaking to them, through the television set, in a way that made them feel respected and comfortable. I think that’s why people my age became attached to Steve as 3-6 year olds.
Yep. Mr Rogers had a similar effect on children
Exactly
Great comment!
One a Blue’s Clues kid, always a Blue’s Clues kid
Blues Clues kids forever !
Steve leaving the show was so difficult for me when I was little. I actually stopped watching it all together until this year when I had my own son. When that video surfaced of Steve saying he left for college and was proud of us, I was at work and immediately started crying lol. I guess the little girl in me really needed to hear that. ❤
My kids watched it all the time. I’m the one who cried at that prime time show.
Girlll you and me both... Out here grown as hell crying about blue's clues lol look at the world we live in
I stopped watching too. I didn't like Joe simply because he wasn't Steve.
Omg the same for me!!!!!! Josh is pretty energetic and my son is watching this right now and can't stop dancing. He is not even 2 yet!!!
I was devastated when Steve left and I'm the mom! Lol Both my kids and I cried when Steve "came back".
As a mom whose older children watched Blue’s Clues, I just always wanted to thank Steve. He was a joy to watch and didn’t patronize the children, and that is a really tough thing to do. Now, my oldest daughter feels such nostalgia at anything Blue’s Clues and has such a love, even now, for Steve.

I really loved this show and so did my kids. Steve will live in our hearts forever. 💕 He made my kids so engaged that even now as teens they really investigate their world.
I'm 30 now and Blues Clues with Steve was everything to me growing up it was one of the few escapes I had from a really bad childhood
So thank you Steve for being my little piece of peace 🧡
@@isaalva whatever happened in ur childhood, hope ur doing well❤️ happy you had blues clues as an escape❤️
PREACH IT!!!😂
Me too!!!!
Right here with ya
Not gonna lie, if I met Steve in person I’d probably cry. I’m a grown man but this guy means so much to me and my childhood.
Omg same 😭😭
He’s from a couple towns away from me. I always wonder if I’ll see him if he visits family.
I Remember Meeting Steve Back As A Kid During In Kindergarten At School Back In 2000.
I spent many hours with my grandson watching Steve and Blues Clues, it was part of our daily routine for years. Blues Clues was a big part of what formed the relationship my grandson and I have today.
Man what a super wholesome and genuine guy. I feel bad for him having to hear all the horrible things people were imagining about what happened to him.
Personally I'd rather hear death rumors and continue to stay out of the public eye than be accused or horrible crimes :)
@@prismatic9804 There were those too. I heard numerous times he got arrested with cocaine and a hooker.
@@bornofstardust5910 rude stuff :( that's the stuff that coming back doesn't always clear. Better people used a quick 30 seconds on Google instead haha
Yeah I heard he got kicked off the show because he overdosed on drugs. That broke my heart because he was my hero. It's nice to know that didn't happen and he just lived a normal life. But it's also sad that people mad up rumors like that about him just because he left. Smh.

I was a bit too old for Blue's Clues, yet I would watch it sometimes just because it was so positive and colorful and thoughtful. This was cool to see and Im glad dude is alive and well.
Just when I thought I couldn't love this man any more. They should do an adult spinoff catered to the kids who watched him but are all grown now. He seems to have experienced a fair bit and has such a calm comedic aura to him. Call it Blues Clued or something.
I’d watch that. If it was like a limited series or something of that nature I think that would be awesome.
They should do it kinda like the Dora movie where it’s catered to adults but is still family friendly!!
@@brambleheart That's not calming though. It's a very different spirit. And Dora was definitely not catered to adults, but to YOUNG teens and adults who wanted to introduce her to their kids since they had always watched her.
I think why my man up there is saying is more like a chilled out actual hangout in the house with Steve, only now he pets the dog and chats life with you.
Omg hold on an idea for a RUclips I must leave now
A Blue's Clues spinoff geared towards adults would be awesome. Maybe the topics could be more advanced.
Make it a podcast
2021 was the absolute worst for us. My 10 week old daughter died of SIDS. I wouldn’t wish that horrific pain on literally any human. I thought my heart would physically fail to beat. It felt like dying while still alive.
Steve and his message was so comforting, honestly. 💗 Brought back some of those happy memories just when our family needed it most.
I’m just really sorry. I don’t know what else to say but I wish you happiness and peace. And I’m just so sorry.
My heart breaks for you. I am so sorry you had to experience that horrific loss. Giving you the BIGGEST virtual hug right now!
So sorry for your loss, hope you guys are doing better ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss
🙏🏾💞🙏🏾
This takes me back to watching Blues Clues with my oldest son. Such precious memories. I kept the Blues Clues video because I just couldn’t bear to give it away.
That was a great video. Also, that was my first time hearing Steve's voice since I used to watch Blue's Clues as a kid. Holy crap, what a soothing, calming, pleasing voice to listen to.
All the death rumors really devastated me as a kid hearing those first few rumors. He’s such a legend shows and creators from back then were very much good people and on another level 💖💖💖
this man helped me so much in my trauma ridden childhood. Thank you Steve
This was such a relaxing, calm & comforting interview.
I was too old for blues clues when it came out growing up, but I still am extremely touched by everything Steve has been to all of us currently. He seems like the genuine article. Seeing him when I was younger, and seeing him now still pushing such positive messages with such obvious belief in his messages warms my heart. Thanks for everything Steve. You're an American treasure
my childhood oh God it's like a PTSD flashback God I miss it I wanna go back but I know I can't and I'm also okay with that I grew up just like he did the respect that my generation has for this man is just heartwarming
Hearing him call Dora his little sister of all things makes me want a crossover between "Blue's Clues" and "Dora the Explorer" even more now.
I can’t even imagine that they’d probably be arguing about whether to follow pawprints or The Map while the fox steals everything from Backpack and Sidetable drawer now they gotta find a way to work together to get everything back
@@IloveJesusandPillows That honestly sounds so adorable lol
@@rocko5766 thank you well I just wrote the scene like I pictured it in my head. I write kids stories on my Braille writer nothing publish worthy but I read what I wrote when I volunteer at daycares and children’s churches
@@IloveJesusandPillows I'm sure it's wonderful. Your kindness is needed in this cold world. Please, keep on sharing it, my friend ❤️
Edit: cold world
@@rocko5766 I wish i could read and sing with the kids remotely as I’m in bed a lot these days with epileptic seizures and my head hurts pretty bad sometimes. But if i could do something from my bed I could leave immediately if a seizure were starting
He wasn't just 'Steve'. He was Steve, whose voice imprinted on the brain of every child of my age.
I was very fortunate to meet Steve earlier this year. Such a genuinely wonderful person in so many ways.
It’s nice how Blue’s Clues is an homage to Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, another childhood show that means so much to me.
I’ll forever be appreciative of Steve and his presence in our lives.
Did Steve just shade Dora, what a legend
HAHA Steve vs Dora, watch it exclusively on PBS Kids
I’m 32 and this video put me to tears. I don’t know why it hit so hard. But I now know what an awesome person Steve is.
I was a teenager when I discovered Blues Clues, and I should have been way beyond the age of liking that show, but anytime it came on I would watch the whole show… It just gave me good feelings, and I think it helped me through difficult days by serving as a distraction from life. This guy was, and STILL IS awesome. Glad he ain’t dead!! 😂
I was a teenager when he was on, too, and watched with the kids I babysat every week. I loved it as much as they did! When I had kids of my own, we watched all the old Steve episodes because he was, and still is, my favorite. I sobbed like a little kid when he did his 2021 video - it felt like the reassuring hug that I didn’t realize I needed.
You're weird bro.
Me too.
That's why I'm here 😅
So true
I think I was somewhere in my early twenties. I watched cartoons as any kid, and I basically never stopped. I still love animation.
What drew me to Blue's Clues wasn't the animation though, there just wasn't that much there. It was the host, always wearing that green striped sweater. His energy. I mostly remember the little notepad and Steve drawing (as far as in aware, you just saw the hands drawing I think). The drawings were simple, but so satisfying to watch come into existence.
I didn't actively go looking for Blues Clues, often I would watch it because another cartoon I did actively look for would come after. But it was a bit of a guilty pleasure. I very obviously wasn't the target audience, but I still found it entertaining to watch. There is no nostalgia factor for me, but there are fond memories.
Dora is a very different show. I'm inclined to agree there is something to be said for a more open ended question like "what do you think" opposed to "where on the current screen do you see this picture right now?". I don't think I can compare the two shows, they are too different.
Right now, Bluey is the big thing for this particular target audience. And whilst it is also a very different show, I feel like it is more similar to Blue's Clues in spirit. And the name is a nice coincidence. I kinda like the idea of Bluey being a descendant of Blue. Carrying the torch, as it where. I'm sure for parents everywhere Bluey is a lot more tolerable to watch with your kid than Dora ever was, and I feel like that was also the case for Blue's Clues. Not a parent myself though, so it is an assumption. Within the animation fan community (and I'm sure outside of it as well), there is a certain phrase that is pretty universally disliked. "It's just a kid movie/show". This phrase is usually uttered after a line like "who cares if it's poorly/ cheaply animated/dumb/simple/lazy/unimaginative" or "Who cares if it has poor writing/plotholes/cliche characters/etc".
Basically saying that it doesn't have to be intelligent if its for kids, therefore saying that intelligent television is wasted on kids.
That's nonsense of course, and a bad excuse for being lazy/a cashgrab without any creativity. It insults a kids intelligence. Blue's Clues definitely didn't do that. It was aimed at a certain demographic/ age group, but it respected that age group. Dora, at the end of the day, less so. Let me stress though, I'm saying 'less so'. Not 'not at all'. Dora is nowhere near bottom of the barrel.
I loved putting blue's clues on after school. It was such a chill vibe. I don't remember when I first started watching, but I know that I kept watching as school work got harder and harder. Having a calming friendly presence made the homework stack much easier to approach.
The part where :Sreve Burns was throwing shade at Dora killed me lol
He kind has a point though…in Early Childhood Education open ended questions and positive feedback loops are considered high quality scaffolding whereas Dora’s call and response method is good at gauging recall and retention it doesn’t exactly allow for more language and creative thought. Both are necessary for cognitive development, but open ended questions really give room to grow.
I know you didn’t comment anticipating a serious response but I felt the need to say he ain’t wrong lol.
@@AnABSOLUTEBarbarian thanks! Your answer was very helpful, really
@@AnABSOLUTEBarbarian Lovely comment
I started watching the show with my nieces. I CRUSHED HARD on Steve. I mean... kind, curious, caring, a good listener, great with kids, handsome, playful... etc, but most of all, Genuine. And I think we could all feel that. You are so beloved, Steve!!! ALWAYS!!!❤
This man was the most exciting part of my day for a long portion of my childhood. I could not wait to hang out with Steve lol
Steve I LOVE YOU. Was already a teenager, but watching made me feel ok. It let me know, that it is ok to be yourself.
Was alone alot after school, but watching just made me forget life. 💙
I can’t believe people thought he was dead. I’ve been watching his music reviews on RUclips for years now!
I watched Fred Rogers as a child, watched Steve Burns as a parent watching with my children, it was wonderful to experience them both within different life roles.
Years later and we never forgot Steve just like we didn't forget Mr. Rogers. Glad Steve is still alive.
the way we’ve grown is crazy. i can’t believe how different we all look steve looked so different on the show and it breaks my heart to to that and i honestly don’t know. i’m literally breaking down right now 🩶🤍
We need to protect this man at all costs
I'm pretty sure he's an avenger
He can protect himself because he is amazing :D
I'm 22. I'm crying. Thank you for everything. ❤️
That video he put out made me sob,it was like seeing a long lost friend again. I'm glad he's doing well and thanks for the memories steve!
Watching this with Steve whilst we looked back at some episodes, I unlocked so many memories I didn’t know I had. I’m a ‘97 baby and this was part of my earliest childhood memories!
I grew up watching Steve and when he left to college I was confused and it was honestly really traumatic. That one video he made for the 25th anniversary gave so much closure and to see that Blues Clues meant so much to him just as it did to me makes me really happy :)
Me too and I had ALL VHS tapes! They were orange!
Loved you on Blues Clues! My kids grew up with you, and it was a show I felt good letting them watch!! You’re missed, and still very loved. Such fond memories.❤🥰
I'm 30. and I was shocked at how comforting I found his message in 2021. he was my fav person on blues clues. and I remember hearing all the crazy rumors when I was young. glad hes in a great place he seems like hes a pretty decent human irl which is even better!
I just wanted to say thank you for the years of watching your show with my daughter!!
He was so missed before this, and I’m so glad this opportunity for him to share has come along. I cried like a baby during his anniversary message, and the trailer got a couple tears too. I’m excited still, like I’m six.
Steve was like part of our family while my kids were growing up. We love Steve.
Same! My kids grew up with Steve and the youngest with Joe, and Blue's Clues was such a huge part of our day as a family!
I am 20 turning 21 and I grew up watching blue’s clues, it’s so cool seeing him now and him talking about it he was my literal childhood
Yeah. Steve never actually left us. He's always been there.
Oh man. This brought up so much memories.
Blues clues was my favourite tv show growing up. I used to have a blues clue plushie I carried around everywhere. And then when Steve left, it just never was the same and I believe I grieved because I couldn't look at a single blues clues show again
I'm so happy to hear he came back and that he's doing well
I'm glad you're alive and well steve. We miss you. You were a cornerstone in our childhood and we're thankful for your wholesomeness. You're a good dude
When I was a child I watched the episode when he went to college and I really cried knowing that I wasn’t going to see him 😂 I had 3 in that moment…beautiful
what’s insane is I’m exactly 20 years old when this was released. I definitely cried when he came back with that video addressing us. he was definitely my childhood growing up and it’s just nice to see him doing okay ❤️
This guy is so pure and genuine. I love him ❤He still loves his character and the show even if it is ‘childish’
I've always been someone that applied tools to other things and found solutions to problems that may have other solutions, and it's all because of Blue's Clues, I'll always remember the episode about levers, and simple machines. As well as the episode about buying blue a birthday present, the little turtle.
A lesson about learning about others and financial spending, as well as applied thinking. As you said. "What do you think?" Those words definitely resonate in me, and I always ask people what they think, I want to know because my curiousness due to blue's clues knows no bounds.
Appreciate you Steve. I hope to pass videos of your adventures to my kids and encourage that same kind of thinking in them too.
I love Steve Burns! He is EXACTLY what this world needs!
Wow now that's the Steve I knew as a kid. Glad he hasn't changed. We love you Steve and thanks for being a huge part of my childhood.
Every time he's said words about his leaving the show, I've been on time for it. I look forward to what he has to say next.
Steve helped me get through losing my mom at 4. Was definitely my best friend growing up
Steve Burns is a national treasure. Thank you Steve. 💙
I was born in 95 and grew up on this show (of course I stopped watching it around age 6 and haven't seen it since then). My son is almost 3 and I just put it on for him for the first time today (they have it on Amazon Prime). 5 minutes into the first episode and my son is laughing or smiling at almost everything Steve says and does. Now he is an official Blue's Clues fan! 💙 This guy has such a gentle compassionate soul, you can feel his warmth and energy through the screen whenever he speaks. He really is like another Mr. Rogers. We must protect this man at all costs. Love him.
We all love you Steve!! Thanks for being there for us as children. Seeing you talk about life makes me happy. Also that orange VHS blues clues tape made my childhood. Much love ♥
I was so obsessed with this show growing up I used to have the same exact doodle pad and crayon and I remember always getting so so excited to see what he was gonna draw next…perhaps that’s why I like art so much now as an adult. Man…this guy is my hero.😭
WE'LL NEVER FORGET ABOUT YOU THERE STEVE AND JOE BURNS!!!!
I grew up with Steve, me and my little brother always watched him, I remember that video they released with him, and it made me cry. He was the friend we all needed, thanks Steve for being there for us.
I was shocked when Steve left blues clues. I was from school, sick, and I turned on the tv and it wasn’t Steve on blues clues. I was still a kid but older maybe fifth or sixth grade. It tore my heart up!
My local news said you had joined your ancestors and that sat heavy on my heart my whole childhood 💔 this was everything to me seeing you well and alive blues clues was never the same with out you Steve ❤
Omg that color song with Joe has always been in my head. 😂
Decades later and I still know the words to the Planets song. Love you Steve
I'm so lucky that Steve left for college about the same time that I did; I was able to follow his musical career (Songs for Dustmites is full of Blue's Clues-esque songs) and get the weekly affirmations online when the death rumors were swirling!
An icon that I spent most of my childhood with 👏👏👏🙌
This is the kinda guy you wanna sit down and have a conversation with or listen to forever.
When I was a kid, reading those rumors made me so sad because I thought he really died. Now I’m just mad that someone would make such things up like that for clout. 😤
Wow... this is a nice bit of closure for us kids born in the early 90s. To know Steve turned out alright and happy and healthy... not something I knew I needed. Thank you
I was a teenager working in preschool with Steve and Blue in the background of my memories. I love Steve and Joe was great too.
So much better than todays over stimulated shows. Not cutting the scenes speakers to that. Todays shows switches scenes every few seconds cause kids to not be able to focus on one thing too long.
We need to the simpler things again
I love this man❤️
This is the closure I neededdddddd😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Hearing his voice pulls something in my heart.
same same same same
Me too
Loved watching you Steve. You are a big part of our family.
The reason Steve will always by loved and relivent he spoke to you like a adult even though your a kid.
I loved watching blues clues growing up as a kiddo in the 2000s and will never forget that part of my childhood.
I'm too old to have watched it myself. But I babysat my nephew a lot and we watched blues clues together all the time.
This video felt nostalgic for me too.
It was good to hear from you Steve 😝
The part about him talking to "you" the same you as 20yrs previous ,made me tear up
I didn't grow up with Joe, or Josh. I grew up with Steve, so he's like the big brother I never had. His voice and face are the ones I remember. Call it a generational thing that all kids who grew up in the late 90s/early 00s, but to me, Steve is the OG voice of Blue's Clues.
Looking back on it he really helped me understand a lot and his energy/vibe is just unmatched
Yes; after Steve left I tried to give Joe a chance but it never hit the same and maybe that's just what happens when hosts leave a show, but I remember waiting for Steve to come back from "college" and after a while I realized that he wasn't going to so I stopped watching.
@@lizzyrank5405 also joe didnt wait long enough for our answers & found everything too quick 😭 but i will say nowadays its nice to see him because he seems lovely and is pretty hot
Same, l was born in the early 90's so Steve was a part of my childhood too 🤗 I don't remember much of the show when Joe came along, just that he didn't have the same energy or vibe as Steve had and not too long after that I stopped watching Blues Clues.
@@casswashwash1070 He ain't hot IMO haha but he does seem like a nice person and so does Steve 💕
They say don’t meet your heroes, but I want to meet Steve. What a legend.
I had the chance to meet him at NYCC, and he was absolutely wonderful. Definitely worth taking the trip to see him if you can.
I met him randomly when he was in Oklahoma recording his album. He was super nice.
Same!
@@Drewit1I met him at NYCC too and I even went to his his panel and got to video chat with him and he was such a kind and down to earth guy, I was 2 states away from NY but the fact I got to meet him was such worth the trip
I really want to meet Steve too
I like that he’s so fond of the role when many others would roll their eyes that they were on such a childish show
I disagree, I think most actors who do kids shows are proud of them, maybe you mean rolling eyes in a joking manner.
@@kbanghart I don’t think when they get into acting they want to be stuck in a child’s program
@@DP-nl4uq Maybe that's true for some, but some people devote their lives willingly to children's entertainment, and love it to the day they die.
A lot of kid’s show actors love their jobs. Look at the cast of Sesame Street and Lazytown.
@@edcellwarrior right? The Wiggles. Talk about success.
the trauma of him going to college was not just national, it was INTERNATIONAL. I remember the day my brother sat me down and told me Steve had left for college and someone else would be taking over, it's burned into my memory because I think that's the first time my heart cracked open. The message during the pandemic had me bawling like crazy. It's so gladdening to see glimpses of Steve like this, to see that his life turned out well and that he's thriving still.
i was gonna say the same thing 😭
i don’t care
I care
@@markstoyreviews6641😂😂😂
The greatest thing that Steve brought to the show was that he truly cared about the kids he was talking to, just like Fred Rogers. This wasn't just a gig for him. He still cares, which is why we love him.

I’m slightly embarrassed to say, Steve’s little talk with us last year actually made me tear up. To me it was like an old teacher who I trusted coming back to tell me everything will be ok. It felt so real and genuinely warmed my heart
Edit: After seeing everyone’s replies, I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt this way!
Nothing To Be embarrassed about I cry every time I see the regular Show Series Finale 😂😂. Heck I sometimes cry when I see actors who died on TV shows that I loved
@@justinvanveenar2953 Yeah I just cried because I watched an old favorite just now and one the character’s actor died several years ago but it still felt fresh when I saw him 😢
100% true it was like. Steve thanks for coming back to reassure us.
❤
I don’t blame ya I think he gave everyone the closure we needed
I'm a 35 year-old man, and hearing this guy's voice is like listening to my grandfather to my brain. It's the most surreal experience I've ever had.
I watched this in tears. I was too old for Blue's Clues by the time I watched it. But I had much younger sisters, and I can remember sitting in the floor with them in the mornings before school and encouraging them to play along with Steve because they were so quiet. We didn't live in a loving home. Steve was my model for how to be a good big brother.
This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing
Dude, I'm 34. I watched Blue's Clues until I was in 6th grade. I knew I was too old to watch it. I just loved watching Steve. He is awesome.
Aww I hope you have a better home life now ❤

@@thehobbit1901 Blues clues and classical music from little einstein yayy
I never truly realized how smart and thoughtful Steve was. You can tell he's very empathetic. It makes me happy to see how he can talk about his time at Blues Clues so fondly. It just seems like he's learned a lot about himself and the world, and it's cool to hear him talk about it. Very inspirational guy!
Obsequious
He has an album Songs for Dustmites I think was the title. He really gave his all in this album. Give it a listen and you will get to know more about who Steve really is!
@@MrShanester117 ?
His heart speaks through his voice. It’s palpable, warm, caring. My child self feels so safe watching these videos with him and it surprises me every time! Not nostalgia…. I feel love, and appreciation coming from him every time he comes on screen.
I genuinely believe Blue Clue’s changed Steve’s life. He was just a goofy 23-year-old who got a kid’s show gig and it’s shaped his worldview and personality ever since. Who knows who he would have been without the opportunity, and how different we’d be without him.
"I just wanna say, over all of these years, I never forgot you!"
When that first dropped, I was almost in tears. Both of my daughters were toddlers when Blues Clues came out and it was such a huge part of our lives and something we bonded over. It was like reconnecting with someone who had a profound impact on your life, who had somehow remained frozen in time like our memories of him.
10 years later I had my first son, and he grew up with Joe.
12 years later I had my second son, and he's growing up with Josh.
Blues Clue's is to millennials, gen z and the next generation what Sesame Street was to children of the 70s and 80s.
What an amazing show!
I grew up with Steve and now my 4 year old loves Josh. It warms my heart to see him have his own Blues Clues experience.
Funny I was prob 7 when blues clues came out but I still remember it and Sesame Street as well
This man is comfort personified. The world is so lucky to have him.
Even his voice is soothing
It is a shame that he didn't maintain SOME social presence, there are too few good role models these days for western children. We dont have any Mr Rogers or Bob Ross type of people being featured across media anymore "except the resurgence of some of their media online, which is not a big enough exposure for all of us."
Perfect description of him 🥹
so genuine and calm it's the voice idk 😌😅
There’s just something about him that just calms me and puts me at ease. He really was the Mister Rogers of that time. Now my daughter watches blues clues and loves him!
Yess i want to meet him someday, he is too precious ❤❤
part of this has to do with Angela Santomero (a co-creator of Blues clues) who thought of Fred Rogers as her idol
We watch the originals of blues clues my kids all watched blues clues and my 6 year still watches them! I’m 41 my nephew and I watched when it was new he’s married with a kid and my oldest is 18 youngest 6
My son is now in his twenties and he just LOVED Blue’s Clues. It wasn’t the same after Steve left. 😢
I love Steve, but nobody can possibly be compared to Mister Rogers, and what he did for mental health, acceptance of others, and mainly acceptance of oneself and that it’s ok to feel a certain way.
I’m not trying to be a dick. I guess just after watching documentaries about Mr. Rogers, how he convinced the government for extra funding because his show was a needed service, and so many other positive things… That dude was a saint.
1:08 Him doing American Sign Language, however small and simple, for “Thank You” was so beautiful.

This poor guy. He retired, and everyone tried to say he died. Good, lord. Anyway, thank you for making my early childhood so lovely.
I was a original fan at the time of blues clues and thru the years I never ever heard if a death rumor this surprised me to have to see what he had to say lol
@@danmulholland1634 I'm in the same boat with you, it wasn't until one random day I was working with some girls that told me, did I hear that rumor.
I heard he had legal problems and was fired from the show.
They pulled the same B.S. with Lou Gehrig. Just a few years after he retired from baseball, there were rumors that he died as well. I swear, you can't make this stuff up.
@@sc30002001 he left because he was going bald and didn't want to do so on tv. When he left he went to pursue music. There is no evidence of him having any legal trouble.

I will never forget the time Steve drew a cube and it blew my mind: I thought it would have to be just a square because drawings were flat, but he drew two squares and connected them to show a three dimensional shape and my whole perspective of art changed. I remember filling a whole page with 3d shapes in purple crayons that day. 😂😢❤
Omg, i remember this too!!
i remember :)
You unlocked a hidden memory
I remember that a little :O
Mostly the little curly gusts of wind in that one episode, he drew though
I had the exact same experience
I don't think we, as a people could ever convey what you mean to our generation. My twin sons were born in 2003 at 25 weeks and we lost one. My surviving son was addicted to your show, and you specifically. You and Dora got me, as a father, through some terrible times. You were a friend to my son in the moments I broke down. Your lessons reached across the age gaps and helped us as a family to live, and love again.
❤
Hey man, I wasn’t expecting to cry from a RUclips comment. But I love you. Rip to your little boy.
Don't mind me crying in the break room eating a salad
Did you like the Star Wars prequels though?
Much love from the internet Paul. Bless you and your family.
The reason we felt so heartbroken when Steve left was because we were a generation where a LOT of us had dysfunctional, or broken, homes and families. Our needs and emotions about things were brushed under the rug.
Steve has such an amazing talent for talking to you as if there’s no one more he cares about in the world. He felt truly grateful for our help, and seemed to genuinely look at us and care about our opinions we were yelling at the screen. Very few people could do it with that much genuineness. He made us feel seen. For me, he was one of very few people in my childhood who made me feel important.
It seems silly because it was just a kids show, but it’s true. I waited all day for blues clues to come on. I cried the day they aired the episode of him leaving, even though I was a year or two out of my blues clues phase, I watched with my little brother and was so sad he was going.
Idk if he’s a match for Steve, but my kids watch Josh now, and he’s also very talented.
