Blue’s Clues is an American animated/live action children’s television series broadcast on Nickelodeon’s Nick Jr. channel. It follows the adventures of Blue, a blue spotted puppy, her owner, Steve Burns, and Blue’s friends. Steve was eventually replaced by his in-show brother Joe, played by Donovan Patton.

The show premiered on September 8, 1996 and continues to air today, although production of new episodes ceased by 2006 but started up again when a reboot was announced by Nick. A Tweet from NickSplat announced that the reboot’s host will be Filipino actor Josh Dela Cruz. Another source confirmed that the title of the reboot would be Blue’s Clues & You.

Versions of the show have been produced in other countries, most notably in the United Kingdom and Portugal, where Kevin Duala and Duarte Gomes physically appear as their respective country’s hosts.

On July 27th, 2006, Behind The Clues, a 12-minute documentary about the history of Blue’s Clues, aired on Nickelodeon. In the documentary, we find out that Steve left the show because he didn’t want to go bald on children’s TV. We also see a few clips of the pilot episode, Blue Prints. Not only that, but we catch a glimpse of one of two Korean versions of the show, hosted by Hyunshup Shin. This version aired on Korean TV channel KBS2 while the one aired on the Korean Nickelodeon channel was a dub of the American version.
