This was late millennial/early gen z's 9/11
>>
Why is he bald now?
>>
>>151733256
IIRC he was only like 24 and was already almost completely bald, and he said that he would rather quit the show than be a toupee-wearing phony. They wanted him to wear one, but he hated the idea.
>>
>>151733206
Wouldn't 9/11 be their 9/11?
>>
If you liked him then you were happy for him, bottom line.
>>
>>151733490
i could forgive him if he just wanted to diverge career paths, but thats really the reason he stopped, godamn what a turbo faggot
>>
>>151733206
I'm a 33 year old millennial and remember 9/11 vividly. I was 9 when it happened.
Do Gen X and Boomers think people don't form memories until way later?
>>
>>151735239
Guy stuck to his guns when he could've folded and enjoyed a cushy gig for another several years. I respect it.

>>151735273
I think people just generally like to overuse the "<event> was <group>'s 9/11" to be funny
>>
Can't you still see him in reruns?

Gonna be honest, as stupid as this sounds I think Steve leaving was one of the most important things this show did. It taught a very important lesson that nothing lasts forever and that changes in life will happen, but it’s not a bad thing. It taught kids that people that you like might drift away from you but it doesn’t mean they’re gone forever or that they don’t like you. It’s just life.
This was the moment as a 5 year old where I “graduated” from preschool programming. After Steve left I was also no longer interested in watching Blue’s Clues, or really any show like it. I came to accept that this part of my life was over and so moved on to shows for the next demographic up.
Steve leaving was actually a smart as fuck idea for a show like this to do and I think it ultimately would’ve been less respected or remembered if Steve simply stayed.
>>
>>151739759
Steve's running a youtube channel now where he holds discussions with various professionals about coping with... life, I guess. It's genuinely super heartfelt.
>>
Apparently Steve did the theme song to Young Sheldon

All the kids I knew just kept saying he was going into chemo and didn't want it to show in the character and that's why he left, and I never bothered to check so I assumed he died like a decade or more ago.
>>
>>151733552
My 9/11 certainly was.
>>
>>151741218
Yeah no they were all lying their asses off. Steve himself had to deal with weirdos insisting he was dead TO HIS FACE multiple times.
>>
>>151733206
Accurate AF

My youngest was watching the reboot series for awhile and I'd always pop whenever Steve showed up.

My brother was born in 96 and his memory of it is basically "They suddenly pulled me out of school because something was going on."

Early zoomers do not remember it, the oldest of them were about 4 back then while they're pretty culturally identical to late millennials, it really is THE event to split the two.
>>
>>151735273
My dad was actually working in DC at the time.
I remember the bigass hole in the Pentagon when we drive him back to work when his department opened back up.
>>
>>151744718
Well it's like a show for babies anon, most zoomers were like 3 during the mid 2000s but they would've still been able to experience dora since. y'know it's a preschool show. Maybe reruns too.
>>
>>151744964
Wait I am retarded you're talking about 9/11
>>
>>151744964
Anon I was talking about 9/11 not Blue's clues.
The earliest zoomers remember a lot of millennial stuff because of TV syndication, re-runs, and a lot of those shows wrapping up in the aughts

>>151733552
No because this specific generation subset is known for potentially having faint memories of 9/11, but because they were really young not knowing the scale until realizing way later, so at the time it was not a big deal for them or even something they were aware was a thing.
Any memories would be of it being on tv or being let out of school of early, but not having really any memories beyond that or knowing what was even going on.
Something like the guy they watched daily for years suddenly leaving and telling you goodbye forever is way more of a direct impact for that age range at the time. They had no idea what the Twin Towers were or what 2000 deaths meant, but surely knew Steve.
>>
>>151747202
Late Millennials remember 9/11, I know this because I'm a late Millennial and have a vivid recollection of that day. A clear memory of 9/11 is often used as the dividing line between Gen Y and Gen Z for a reason.
>>
>>151747202
i was born in 92 don't know if that counts as core or just barely late millennial and i always thought blues clues was lame babby shit, i was way way over preschool shows by then besides zoboomafoo because i had a fascination with animals. at that point i was already watching lots of simpsons reruns and whatever was airing on ytv and teletoon at the time for kids. i definitely knew 9/11 was a big deal at the time and lots of people died i just didn't really care personally. i don't think i saw a single episode of blues clues.

>>151747202
>>151748258
Earlier example highlights it
>>151744718
A clear memory sets in at about 4 while solidifying around about 6 or 7.
That is to say. If you were in kindergarten during 9/11 you're gonna have some memories but it's gonna be getting pulled out of school and not really knowing why while everyone around you freaks out because that's how kindergarteners largely saw the event. No one wanted to show them a large violent explosion. You'll notice it's third grade upward where you typically start getting the "wheeled in a TV" stories

I'll never get tired of Steve's story with a Playboy Playmate, funny but also kind of sad in the end.

>>151733206
Our 9/11 was 9/11. This was something else that made people realize that life before 9/11 was better.
>>
>>151747202
The amount of pro-war propaganda in movies and video games at that time was insane. Even shit that was seemingly satirical like Team America was part of this whole ecosystem of propaganda.

9/11 was basically this. Remember World War 2? Remember how the Axis had deemed attacking mainlaind America impossible?
It was a moment where invincibility glitch geography, the strongest military in the world, and everything else seemed nullified for a brief moment. A few intelligence fuck-ups and failure to adequately share some data between agencies causing America to lose its plot armor. It would have been a national tragedy by any metric but the state America was in at the time made it almost mind breaking for the nation at large.
Then there's just a sense of like, the Twin Towers defined the New York skyline back then. Imagine if the Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal, or Tokyo tower got blown up. The national identity was attacked.
Ironically, in a roundabout way, 9/11 worked.
Because we went so damn crazy with the response and the disaster that was Afghan/Iraq, Americans actually started looking into all the crazy shit that the country was actually doing in the Middle East and now nobody wants to enlist because the younger generations are far more aware of just how pointless most of those wars were and aware that we've basically terrorized the entire region in the name of Israel.
