Steve Burns, the first ever host of the popular kids show Blue’s Clues, returned 19 years later on the anniversary of the show.
He explained why he packed up his bags 19 years ago in 2002, bidding farewell to an entire generation of children (me included) and said goodbye to Blue (the blue dog) and hopped onto a 2D school bus.
Nick Jr posted a video of Steve on their Twitter account, with Steve asking viewers: “Hi, you got a second?”
He then asked if we remembered running around and hanging out with Blue, finding clues.
And then one day he was like “guess what? Big news, I’m leaving.”
And we didn’t see each other for a really long time.
He said that he kinda got up and went to college, which was really challenging for him by the way but it was great and he managed to do all the things that he wanted to do.
He then pointed to the viewer: “And then look at you! Look at all you have done! and all you have accomplished ion all that time.
“We started out with clues and now it’s student loans and jobs and families; and some of it has been kind of hard, you know?”
He added that he really couldn’t have done any of the things that he has done without (your) help.
He further added that after all these years, he never forgot (you) ever.
