The original Blue's Clues show is a beloved classic that has gained a successful revival that's called Blue's Clues & You!. However, there was a show that came between the original show and the recent revival. The middle show is Blue's Room.

There's a good chance that you won't be as familiar with Blue's Room as the other two Blue's Clues shows. It only lasted two seasons. Also, the seasons were very short. In total, the show only had seventeen episodes. It appears that Blue's Room wasn't able to connect with people as well as Blue's Clues.

Blue's Room takes the Blue's Clues franchise in a much different direction. The other Blue's Clues shows had live-action hosts with animated characters. However, in Blue's Room, Blue and a majority of her friends are puppets. This change of style makes Blue's Room resemble Sesame Street more than Blue's Clues. Also, as the name would imply, the show takes place in a room rather than the classic house. Steve never appears in Blue's Room. Blue lives in a different house with a different cast of characters. The most notable addition to the cast is Sprinkles, because he's Blue's baby brother.

All of these changes might sound pretty surprising, but there's another change that might be the biggest surprise of all. You know what that change is? Blue talks! In the original series and the revival series, Blue wasn't able to talk. Having her talk was certainly a big change that leads to Blue seeming like a much different character. This change leads to Blue being the one that directly talks to the audience.

Making such drastic changes might sound concerning. While I believe that changes can be a nice change of pace, it can also run the risk of taking things too far in a different direction. I do want to make it clear that I don't think that Blue's Room is a bad show. It is an innocent, cute show that has a few interesting changes to make it distinct. However, I will say that it can't compare to the original series.

While hearing Blue talk for the first time is a fun novelty, I believe that Blue is a more interesting protagonist as a character that has to communicate with cute expressions and clues rather than words. I believe that Blue works best with a human host to balance off of. The new characters aren't bad, but they aren't as entertaining or as memorable as Blue's friends from the original series.

While Steve never appears in Blue's Room, the original show's second host, Joe, does show up. At first, Joe was just brought in for a guest appearance in the show's Christmas episode. However, he quickly became part of the show's supporting cast. Since Blue can now talk and host her own show, Joe isn't given as much to do as he did in the original show. However, having him around does help recapture a lot of the magic of the original show.

The original Blue's Clues is a wonderful show that can bring joy to people of all ages. Is the same true for Blue's Room? That's debatable. I do like Blue's Room, but I don't love it in the same way that I love Blue's Room. Blue's Room has some fresh, interesting changes, but I think that the original show works a lot better. If you're a huge Blue's Clues fan, I would recommend giving Blue's Room a watch. I would also recommend it if you like puppet shows.

In my personal opinion, everyone matters. There isn't a single person that's disposable. Everyone that has existed, is existing and will exist matters.

In a world that's filled with rankings of power, it can feel tempting to treat the people with the highest amount of power as the ones who truly matter. However, that's not a healthy or fair way of looking at people.

A person's value shouldn't be based upon how much wealth they have. They also shouldn't be judged upon how much money, fame and fans they have. A person's value comes from the heart.

People often think that certain people matter...

There are times where we don't get everything we need. Because of that, it becomes tempting to feel unsatisfied, disappointed and upset. There are times where it becomes hard to feel grateful of what we have in life.

I believe that most people have moments of weakness where they don't express as much gratitude for what they have in life. I'm certainly guilty of that. As humans, we make mistakes. We can't always make the right choices, but we can work harder to make the right choices.

An important step in that is expressing gratitude. I want to use this article as an opportunity to express my...

Context: For a very brief amount of time, I had the username Atsukokagari. Atsuko Kagari is the protagonist of Little Witch Academia. I didn't accomplish much during that time, but I did write an article that I'm happy with, so it's being reuploaded here. In the article, I play the character of Atsuko Kagari, but the opinions stated are my own.

At the time, my motto was "Fly as hard as you can to your dreams on your magical broom."

Greetings, anybody who reads this. I'm Atsuko Kagari, but my friends call me Akko.

In life, sometimes things get difficult. Things don't work out as well as they...

Something that people often worry about is fitting in. In order to fit in with the crowd, people are expected to behave normally. However, what does being normal truly mean? There is no definitive answer to what being normal is. Depending on the person and circumstances, what's considered normal can have a large variety of different meanings.

People are expected to be what's considered normal, but should they? Should people fit into certain patterns? Should people just try to be like everyone else? I believe that each person should be their own unique person.

Being normal is something that...

Having different opinions on subjects can lead to arguing and fighting. It's sad that a difference of opinion can spark such passionate rage. Personally, I believe that having different opinions is a good thing.

Everybody is unique. Each person has their own distinct identity. Because of that, people have different opinions on different subjects. This isn't a bad thing. In fact, it can often be a good thing. Something that makes each person so interesting and special is that we all have different feelings and opinions. If everybody felt the same way about everything, it would make the world...

There are a lot of things in life that are important and are worth a lot. With so many people in the world and so many responsibilities, it can be hard to share and give as much as we should. However, there is one thing that is very easy to share. It's something that doesn't cost a single dollar. Also, it's something that I believe that we should all share with each other.

What should be shared? Kindness. That might seem vague, but I believe that one word summarizes the most valuable thing that one person can share with another. We live in a world that's full of both good and evil. It can be...
