A New Blue's Clues & You for the Next Generation

Diclaimer: The Fandads were provided with a review copy and giveaway copy in exchange for a review on the new Blue's Clues & You DVD. All thoughts, opinions, and flashbacks to the original show are our own.

It's crazy to think that the original Blue's Clues first aired on September 8, 1996. By that time I was not watching children shows, but I had younger cousins that would watch them. I remember watching Blue's Clues every now and then and just liking the songs and the shear joy of the show. It was fun watching Steve, Blue, & Magenta go on these little adventures each episode all while learning a lesson or two.
Now 23 years later, a new version of the show premiered called Blue's Clue & You and it features a new host Josh played by Josh Dela Cruz. Being that my children are part Filipino, it is awesome for them to see a fellow Filipino on the screen and relate to him. Representation does matter. This new iteration of the show is fantastic and perfectly picks up from where the last one ended. Josh is superb on the show and my son loves watching him.

Favorite episodes on the DVD:

Meet Josh - Not only because this is the first episode, but because we get a special visit from some old friends.

Playdate with Magenta - It is always great when your favorite characters from the old show appear. It is great to see Magenta on the show. If you loved Magenta, you will love this episode.

The special features on the disc are not only fun to watch but also educational. One of the new things from this version of Blue's Clues is the inclusion of sign language. A few of the special features teach you and your children American Sign Language.
