Oh Steve… How My Children Adore You
Do your children ever ask you what happened to Steve from Blue’s Clues? I know mine sure miss him (sorry Joe). Check out this great article from Babble! Steve talk’s about his experience on the show, getting nudie pictures from moms (wow..), and what he’s up to now a days. I was really happy to see that he was doing well (and not dead…..). I’m definitely going to check out his music on iTunes.
In 1995, a twenty-two-year-old Steve Burns got on a bus from Pennsylvania to New York and auditioned for what came to be known as the wildly popular Nickelodeon TV show Blue’s Clues, wherein he solves puzzles with an animated puppy named Blue. Despite the “bad hair and poor choice of clothing” he was sporting at the time, Burns impressed the creators of the show and spent the next six years taping more than 130 episodes of Blue’s Clues, with millions of kids (and hot soccer moms) tuning in to watch the doe-eyed host gently croon the “Mail Song.”

I like Steve
My kids always liked Steve and my youngest will not watch it if Joe is on.
My boys both love him. The always ask where he went when we watch the episodes with Joe.
Yep, we miss Steve too — He had a way of doing the show with out talking “down” to the kids — he was really good!
Joe’s just a bit too… hmmm I don’t know how to say it… stagey? for me. Plus, I don’t like all the changes they made. I liked it when it was simple.
This was fascinating! I wondered what had happened to him.
My daugher was born Post-Steve, likes Joe just fine. I do to, but he doesn't do the handy…dandy…NOTEBOOK part right. Just sayin.
Bman loves Joe.
