Anyone notice this series on Nick Jr.? They basically took the dog from Blue's Clues, converted her into a puppet, and made her own imaginary world, ala Elmo's World. The puppetry is well done and the character design is on key with the other shows. It just seems odd they'd make a non-talking character have a voice in this show. Imagine if Beaker or Animal started having actual dialogue! Yipes. What do you think of the show?

I personally think it's kind of an odd spin-off. The puppetry is pretty good, but the whole talking thing kind of takes the uniqueness away from the original plot and makes it just another talking animal show.

Ew. Beaker with real dialogue. Blech.

All I can say or Blue's room....


you got to hand it to Nick... they made a WORSE show than Blue's clues. The whole thing smacks of "cheap SS ripoff on a cable channel." The puppets look fairly good, but the puppetry is horrid, and the voices are patronizing to children.

There will only always be one Sesame Street,
