Steve Burns ("Steve" from Blues Clues) reveals his inner Holden Caulfield

You thought this was Steve, right?  "Steve Burns" from Blue's Clues?


Ha.  Well, it's not.  It never was.  Meet the real Steve.



Steve is all grown up.  I mean,  all grown up and, boy, is he deep.
Check out The Moth presents Steve Burns: Fameishness which oddly depresses me although  I can't quite figure out why, yet.



Is it...


A.)  Because he's not really talking to the that kid (Me?  My kids?) inside the camera anymore?


B.)  Because he really is that bald?


C.)  Because he let animators pressure him into allowing Snookie do a lap dance on the Big Red Chair?





D.)  He makes fun of the mail dance?  (Do NOT dis the "Mail's Here" dance.)





E.)   The real Steve is gloomier than Holden Caulfield in Catcher in the Rye?


F.)   All of the above.


Yeah.  It's "F."  Duh.

Isn't it bad enough our own kids have to grow up?  or do we also have to witness Steve go bald and wear glasses, too?   

However  this Blue's Clues re-mix of Steve manages to cheer me up.
