List of Blue's Clues episodes
The following is the list of episodes for Blue's Clues, an American live-action/animated educational children's television series that premiered on Nickelodeon on Sunday, September 8, 1996.[1] Producers Angela Santomero, Todd Kessler, and Traci Paige Johnson combined concepts from child development and early-childhood education with innovative animation and production techniques that helped their viewers learn. It was hosted originally by Steve Burns, who left in 2002 and was replaced by Donovan Patton.
