      It’s pretty much an “open secret” that he’s a pedophile who abused a number of the female stars of Nickelodeon shows.

      This is a vine from one of his former stars. I don’t see any way to interpret that except as a cry for help with the thinnest fucking veneer of hiding behind comedy.

      Beyond that, of what I understand to be the openly verifiable stuff, he’s openly a sex pest with a foot fetish as he has had a number of incredibly out of place scenes involving shots of underage female stars feet in the shows he has overseen, and he also tried to start a trend of getting (mostly underage) fans of his shows to write messages on their feet and post the pictures to twitter. I think it was “supposed” to be some sort of campaign to bring a show back?

      Man is at absolute best a disgusting fucking creep preying on the underage for his foot fetish. Tons of circumstantial evidence that he’s much much worse than that.

        Don’t forget, he’s had multiple pedophiles on his set. You don’t just get a bunch of pedophiles in your orbit for no reason.

          its possible to have a foot fetish without being a creep about it.

          Although that’s a perfectly innocent fetish under normal circumstances, it is not Innocent when he’s getting sexual gratification from minors without their knowledge. That’s creepy as fuck. Nobody would care if he was attracted to the feet of consenting adults.

    “If there’s one thing I always wanted to teach the kids who watched ‘Blues Clues’ it’s that you have to be ready to do the right thing,” said Steve from behind the glass in the local jail. “That’s why after watching the ‘Quiet on Set’ documentary I knew I had to take action. I followed all of the clues before sitting down in my thinking chair and thinking about what to do. I soon realized that abused children, Dan Schneider, and my fists all added up to justified vigilante justice. My dog might be blue but I vowed my hands would be magenta after I was done with him.”

      No, he just went to college. Although it is possible he was replaced with a liberal doppleganger while there.

      “hands would be magenta” my guy you probably shoulda googled that word before committing to it.

      Magenta is a purple-ish red color which on it’s own doesn’t really work as a reference to blood, but the author chose that specific color because it’s also the name of Blue’s friend next door, a dog named Magenta.

      Perhaps you should’ve googled that before committing to your comment?

        It also works as the color of bruises, which your hands would be after viciously beating someone.

        I don’t think that’s a reasonable ask, considering it basically requires pre-existing knowledge to consider.

        It’s an awkward line that only a small subset readers would ever get, and isn’t even good with context.

          The target audience is kids who grew up watching Blues Clues. I’m pretty sure most the target audience would have gotten it.

          You weren’t the target audience, that’s fine.

            I actually watched it with my younger brother enough to get it.

            The target audience of that line is people with bad taste in wordplay.

            ZeroCool, are you the author of the article?

            I ask because you don’t quite seem to understand what that word means or the context it would be appropriate for either.

                  They don’t seem upset to me just dismissive. If I had to guess I’d say they probably don’t want to keep explaining to you what a facetious remark is. Which is probably a good idea, because you seem to be very dumb.

          Holy shit HOW do you not know magenta is a color like pink or purple lmao, the dog is named Magenta because it is the color magenta, kinda like how the only other fuckin dog in the show is named BLUE cuz it’s FUCKIN BLUE.

          A magenta colored flower isn’t out of the cards when you Google the word of a pinkish color.

          Your fists don’t go instantly blood red when you punch someone, unless you’re doing something very wrong, there are various shades of pink (e.g.s hot pink and MAGENTA)

          Either smoke a joint and calm the fuck down and try to come to terms with the fact that you’re ignorant instead of getting angry, or go back to first grade and learn colors again.

          hey @[email protected] if you really want to delete your comments, you better come back and delete them a little harder, because until you manually highlight and delete it all and overwrite it with a punctuation mark or something, we can still read your “deleted” comments.

        On a second, more careful review of that wikipedia page:

        I thank you for being the only person to actually address and correct my mistake. While the color I was brought up to understand as magenta and the color of the flower I got when I googled “magenta” and the color of the relevant dog (if you squint, maybe) do not look like any bruise or blood, the color can be fairly said to take up more space in the color wheel than that, and potentially includes many “bruised” colors.
