'Blue's Clues' Is Coming Back
In a Tuesday press release, Nickelodeon announced the 20-episode return of Blue's Clues: "The new Blue’s Clues will have a refreshed signature look and casting for the new host will begin this month."
Per the audition notice, those who want to be the next Steve need to get their butts to Burbank, California, on Saturday, April 14.
Nickelodeon is encouraging women and men of all backgrounds to try out, noting "our host will have a comedy background, a natural connection with the camera, and will empower the home viewer to feel important, respected, and smart. Playing the guitar, singing, and juggling are all a plus."
To be clear, the home viewer is meant to be a pre-schooler (and his/her parents, who likely loved the OG Blue's from its 1996 beginnings). Otherwise, the premise is the same. "Puppy Blue invites viewers into her animated world to help solve the day’s puzzles with the help of a live-action host," the press release explains.
Filming is set to begin this summer. Talk about some news you can use, amirite!?!?!?!!!
