Thanks Again for All Your Help Blues Clues

  • "Happy birthday, Blue. I love you."
  • In "Steve Goes to College," Blue and her friends gave Steve a scrapbook to remember them by, wishing him good luck. Blue then gave him a phone as a present to keep in contact with them. Then he said goodbye to Blue and the viewers.

    Steve: ... I'm gonna miss you. (Steve hugs Blue and turns to the viewers) I'm gonna miss you, too. I'll never forget how you helped me find all those clues. You really are so smart! Which reminds me... will you take good care of my brother, Joe, while I'm at college? ...Great, cause sometimes he needs a little help, kind of like me.

    • Steve then wishes all the other residents goodbye, and just before he leaves, he turns to the viewers again.

    Steve: Thanks again for all your help.

    • The epilogue scene: Blue and Joe are playing around and Joe gets a call from Steve, who then talks through the viewers. To say it's heartwarming is an understatement.
    • For the 25th anniversary of Blue's Clues, Nick Jr.'s Twitter released a video of Steve Burns reprising his role of Steve talking to adult fans about what happened to him after he left for college. This whole thing is just a treat for the adults who watched Blue's Clues as a kid and were saddened by Steve's departure from the show. The video has Steve go over his time at college, both the great stuff and the hardships. And just like in the show, he addresses the audience directly as if we're part of the conversation. Thus, when Steve sincerely thanks the audience for supporting him throughout the years and says he'll never forget you, it definitely pulls at the heartstrings. Fans returned their love in droves as the tweet got over 2 million likes.

    Steve: And I wanted to tell you that I really couldn't have done all of that without your help. And in fact, all the help that you helped me with when we were younger is still helping me today. Right now. And that's super cool. I guess I just wanted to say that after all these years, I never forgot you... ever. And I'm super glad we're still friends. Thanks for listening. (Steve signs "Thank you".)

  • The end of the season 1 finale "Blue's News." It turned out that the answer to Blue's Clues was that Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper had a baby. Steve is about to sing "We Just Figured Out Blue's Clues" when he has a Double Take as he realizes that they had a baby, and he promptly books it to the kitchen while quietly singing a shortened version of the song as he goes to see them. The rest of the episode, where Steve, Blue, and the viewers are introduced to Paprika, is too precious for words.
  • At the end of the episode "Meet Polka Dots," when Blue and her stuffed toy Polka Dots are playing astronaut, we get a song (called "You, My Friend") sung from Polka Dots' point of view. It's sweeter than it sounds.
  • Later in the series, there's a five-episode story arc dedicated to the birth of Cinnamon (Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper's second child, and Paprika's little brother). The third episode has the residents of the house celebrating "Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper Appreciation Day" to show how much they appreciate them, and they even sing a song about it near the end of the episode.
  • The ending of "Our Neighborhood Festival" reveals that the episode was dedicated "In loving memory of Fred Rogers. The neighborhood won't be the same without you." Complete with a short arrangement of "Won't You Be My Neighbor?", and the iconic Neighborhood Trolley appearing in the Blue's Clues art style during the end credits. Clearly they truly meant it, as several of the show's staff would go on to create Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood.
  • The 100th episode - the characters actually thank us for teaching them so much over the 100 episodes.
    • The best part about this episode is there's a special guest—do you know who it is? Steve! You'd probably think that after "Steve Goes to College", we'd never get to see him again, but we got to see him one last time in the series.
  • "Blue's First Holiday," which sees Joe and the gang watching home movies, has several moments:
    • How did Steve get Blue? One Christmas, when he was a kid, Steve got a present in the mail: a book, called "About a Puppy"... which featured a certain blue puppy, wondering who could be her friend. One night, before going to bed, Steve said he'd be the puppy's friend. The next morning? Blue skidoos out of the book to be with Steve.
      • Blue as a baby in general is just adorable, especially after skidooing out of the book.
    • As an intermission of sorts, Joe and Blue go and answer a phone call in the living room. The caller? Steve.
    • How did Blue's Clues get invented? Blue wanted to let the others know that Baby Joe's blanket was still outside, by the snowman in the front yard, but there was an obvious language barrier.
    • The ending, depicting Blue and Joe going sledding, just like she used to do with Steve.
  • In "What Is Blue Afraid Of", when Blue is too scared to skidoo into the picture by herself, Steve offers to jump in with her. Also, when Blue gets a better look at the owl (which is the answer to Blue's Clues), she makes friends with him.
  • When we figure out Blue's Clues in "Blue's Big Treasure Hunt", it turns out that the titular treasure hunt was set up by Steve's grandmother. After having found the treasure inside Mailbox, Steve reads a card saying that she's standing behind the tree. When Steve turns around, his grandmother happily jumps out, and you can't help but love her grandson's reaction.
  • What makes Blue happy from "I'm So Happy?" When us (the viewer) come to visit, followed by Joe singing a song about how much we make him happy. Talk about appreciating the viewer.
