Full disclosure: I was too old to watch Blue’s Clues when it started its original run on Nickelodeon’s Nick Jr. in 1996. So I wasn’t totally familiar with the work of former host Steve Burns.
But as of late, thanks to TikTok, I’ve seen what he does, and it’s quite emotional.
Burns has made a bunch of videos in which he asks how people out there are doing, and then he just … sits there. He’s not blanked-faced — he looks like he’s actively listening. And that’s it.
His latest video after the 2024 presidential election has everyone in their feelings in the comments and beyond, and you can see why:
