Has it really been more than ten years already? Blue's Clues was my kids' favorite when they were little, and it has since become a world-wide phenomenon.
Here are some really fun Blue's Clues sites, if you're interested in anything from printables, online activities and e-cards, to learning more about the American hosts, Steve and Joe.
Step into the world of Blue! With me and you, and my dog Blue we can do anything... that we wanna do!

Blue's Clues - Blue's Big Musical Movie
This is an "Amazon.com essential video"! Editorial review:
Blue bounds into her first feature-length film ready to sing. She gets sidetracked along the way, of course, but that's part of the brilliant Blue's Clues formula. In this story Blue; her human companion, Steve; and their cadre of talking-object friends are scurrying around, preparing for a backyard music show that day. Everybody picks a number to perform; Blue's is a duet with Tickety Tock, but the clock contracts laryngitis. Who will be Blue's new partner? A game of Blue's Clues reveals the hardly reluctant replacement. The standard discovery of three clues followed by the usual wind-down song would add up to a colossal disappointment in a feature film, so substantial rounding-out is provided. Steve stumbles onto a keyboard inhabited by a note called G-Clef (the unmistakable voice of Ray Charles), who gives a tour of how to make a song. First you pick the notes, then you work on rhythm, then comes tempo, and, last but not least, "you've got to give it soul." This movie's themes include perseverance (Tickety Tock can't sing but finds a way to contribute anyway) and self-empowerment. Blue's Big Musical Movie is a feast for little eyes and ears; the sets are so colorful they hurt grown-up eyes, and the songs--especially the one that gets the Charles treatment--are all sing-along-with-me winners.

2. Really interesting and fun interview from the Australian show The Panel.
3. Clip of Steve's guest appearance on Homicide (NOT FOR KIDS) (I think this was during his BC run).

Odd Couple: Blue and... Hello Kitty??
In what I consider a really odd pairing, Sanrio has announced it will begin to produce merchandise featuring our girl Blue with its very own Hello Kitty. I just don't see those two doing the buddy boogie.Read the article from the Taipei Times. Traci Paige Johnson is quoted as saying that Hello Kitty was a "tremendous influence" in creating Blue. Huh?
