posted by whatsupbugs

The Past Present and Future has been my dream project to work on. It was a book that I spent years developing ideas for. After finally writing the book, I made spin-offs and sequels.

The characters:

Kate Cornelia: The protagonist. A shy 20-year-old woman that has had a hard time moving on from the pain of her sad past. She seeks a potentially happy future with her new bestie, Penelope.

Penelope Takahata: The deuteragonist. A woman that's around Kate age that Kate meets in college. Penelope's a very caring woman who grows a quick attachment to Kate. She quickly gets a crush on Kate.

Mr. Gorshin: The main antagonist. A businessman that runs an organization that's supposed to help grieving kids. However, Mr. Gorshin is more interested in getting rich and becoming the next mayor.

Tara Lola: Penelope's childhood friend who was a popular cheerleader. Tara cares a lot about Penelope, so she starts getting jealous when Penelope starts spending her time with Kate.

Emily: A close friend of Penelope and Tara. She is obsessed with following the rules, so she strives to become a member of law enforcement. Despite being a stickler for the rules, she has a kind heart.

Lacy Jay: Kate's childhood friend who was like a sister to her. Kate has a hard time moving on with her life without her. An imaginary version of Lacy haunts Kate in her dreams.

Robert: Kate and Lacy's mysterious neighbor who went on to become Mr. Gorshin's assistant. Kate blames him for Lacy's disappearance, while Robert appears to be going through a guilt trip.

Vincent Jay: Lacy's father. A businessman and scientist who becomes obsessed with trying to find a way to bring Lacy back. He thinks of Kate as a second daughter.

Mayor Lloyd Cliff: The current mayor of New York City. He feels that he isn't as good of a mayor as he should be. Mr. Gorshin wants him to step down, so he can become the new mayor.

Brandon Takahata: Penelope's older, immature brother. Brandon strives to become a surfer, but he's too impatient and lazy to train.

Blue's Clues Intros Ranked

posted by whatsupbugs

An intro is an important way of getting audiences excited for a piece of media. Over the years, the Blue's Clues franchise has had four unique intros. I will be ranking the intros from least favorite to favorite. Some seasons mildly tweaked the intros, but I'm only ranking the intros that are distinctly different from each other.

4. The first intro of the original series (used for the first four seasons of the original series)

Unlike the other intros, this intro doesn't have a song. The intro begins with a book that opens up to reveal the storybook world that Blue's Clues takes place in. The...

Blue's Big Change - The Cast

posted by whatsupbugs

I came up with an idea for a Blue's Clues film called Blue's Big Change. In a couple of my previous articles, I described what the film would be about. For this article, I'll be listing the cast that I would want for the film.

For my casting choices, I used cast members from the Blue's Clues series and movies to reprise their roles. I also included some celebrity casting choices, too. A majority of the film would take place shortly after the original Blue's Clues, so I used some celebrities for some of the roles that might need to be recast. However, if all of the original performers were able...

Frozen Collection Updates

posted by whatsupbugs

Frozen has been my favorite thing to collect for recently, especially when it comes to Elsa. My previous computer stopped working, so I had to get a new one. My new computer's been working well, but for the longest time, I didn't know how to take pictures on it. However, I've finally figured out how to do it, so I can share updates about my collection. I hope that you enjoy the pictures.

Thank you for all those who appreciate my collection and support me. Your kind words mean a lot to me. I'm honored, touched and happy to be friends with you. You are very cool people that help warm my heart.

Celebrating the 27th Anniversary of Blue's Clues

posted by whatsupbugs

In September of 1996, a show came around that ended up being an important part of so many people's childhoods. That show was Blue's Clues. Blue's Clues quickly became a fan-favorite show for a countless number of kids. Kids loved helping Steve find clues that were left by Blue. The show's colorful cast of talking objects, as well as the adorable Blue and the lovable Steve, made a huge impact on kids. Like all shows, the original Blue's Clues series couldn't go on forever. However, that didn't mean that the franchise had to end. To this day, the Blue's Clues franchise is still going on and is...

My First Book - Changed Ideas

posted by whatsupbugs

The first book that I worked on was The Past, Present and Future. I first came up with the idea in 2015 but didn't start writing it until 2019. I spent years thinking of ideas about the story. As time went on, the story changed a lot.

Initial idea:

Originally, The Past, Present and Future was going to have a male protagonist. In the story, the male protagonist met a girl around his age and became best friends with her. The two were good friends during their childhood and could have grown to be more. However, the female friend was murdered by her neighbor. After growing up to the age of a young...

Additional Blue's Clues Ideas

posted by whatsupbugs

If the Blue's Clues crew want to make further films, I have an idea that they could further develop into a feature film. My other film idea would take place after the previous films as opposed to Blue's Big Change which mostly took place between the original series and the reboot series. Because of that, the film would take place in the Blue's Clues & You! timeline and have Josh as the host (unless a new host has taken over as host by that time).

Blue's Big Family Reunion: Blue and Josh are excited that a big family reunion is going to be thrown at their place. The reunion will not only...
