Twitter recently discovered the major changes that were made to Blue's Clues, and grown-up fans who probably enjoyed the show as kids are not thrilled.


Twitter user MissLady_Leah posted on June 10 an update about the beloved kids program that many may not have been aware of. "I want y'all people with no kids to know.… Blues Clues gets emails instead of letters now," she wrote.


This was brand-new information to many. "'We just got an email' don't even slide off the tongue like 'we just got a letter' I can't sing that," someone argued.

"I feel ......disrespected? Is there no honor left? Is nothing SACRED?" another Twitter user chimed in.

"Does he still draw clues?! Or is he just posting them to his feed?" a third chimed in.

The updated version of Blue's Clues, called Blue's Clues & You! premiered in November 2019. In the older version of the show, Steve (Steve Burns) and Joe (Donovan Patton) hosted the interactive kids series. This time around, Josh (Joshua Dela Cruz) follows Blue's clues to figure out what she wants to do. However, Steve and Joe did make cameos in the first episode of Blue's Clues & You!, a special nugget for older viewers who may be watching with their kids this time around.



The premise of the show remains the same, as Josh looks for Blue's paw prints to decipher what's on her mind and what she wants to do.


Some other changes have been made to the rebooted version of Blue's Clues. Josh receives emails as well as physical letters this time around (who doesn't love snail mail?). Additionally, the handy-dandy notebook is now an iPhone/notebook hybrid. On one side of the device, he has an iPhone. The other side includes a spiral notebook, which he draws on with crayons, just like in the '90s.

Despite these major changes made to the cartoon, some users still thought Blue's Clues & You captured the spirit of the '90s program. "Alright, Blues Clues is trending because the new guy (Josh) is using a phone instead of a notebook and E-MAIL instead of the regular mail. I was pretty upset when I heard about that at first," one user wrote. "However, I started watching the show one morning out of curiosity and I think that the same show from my childhood is still there and Josh is doing a good job."

Blue's Clues aired on Nickelodeon Jr. from 1996 to 2006. Burns hosted the show until 2002, when it was handed off to Patton until 2006. Blue's Clues & You! premiered on November 11, 2019. The reboot was renewed for a second season days later, according to Deadline.

... Really? From letters to e-mails, and THAT is what has parents bitching? At least the Cookie Monster to Veggie Monster rage was justified,this is just pathetic.

Also...

Man, I watch this show as a kid. I was aware of this.
AND I DONT GIVE A FUCK!

I read this and immediately imagined The Tourettes Guy saying this, which makes it 10x funnier

Is it sad that with all the crazy autistic bullshit that these recent months have been, complaints about e-mails in place of letters is a relief? Still autistic but it's tame at least.

He's adorable. Can't tell if he's a chink or a beaner though.
He could be both.
A spink.
