In defense of Joe
My husband and I were so used to watching Joe. Yes, we are guilty of judging Joe, too. Our two-year-old son is so much smarter. He sat through one episode after another with Joe leading him on. I was set-up to give Joe a second chance, of course. Now I understand better. I believe other Steve fans will realize as well what the producers saw in Joe. He is just a normal-looking guy who acts himself. I appreciate the fact that he doesn't try too hard to copy Joe's style. There's really no need to play overly dumb. The poor guy has big shoes to fill. Therefore, he suffers from comparison. He reminds me of someone else's second child.

Joe is not difficult to watch especially after so many repeats. The DVD material is just so good to pass on. This collection includes the basic lessons for every toddler/preschooler. They are so worth the money considering the number of times your child will be watching them. The bonus part here is that they are safe to watch. Sesame Street is so much fast-paced and more suitable for kids beyond four. Moms, beware of flashy and fast-faced programs for children under 18 months old. For infants, Teletubbies is more suitable. The slower the better. By exposing your children to Sesame Street early on, you'll find them having difficulty sitting patiently in a traditional classroom in the future. I know so
after having 20 years of teaching experience.

Wonderful
My daughter is crazy for Blues Clues. We bought this set of videos a while ago and still watch them at least twice a week! I wish Blues Clues were still around, but these videos help with that.

Blues Collection
I wish it would have been made clear that these DVDs featured Joe, and not Steve as I thought they did. My daughter is not as much of a fan of Joe. It is nice that are a few "bonus" episodes on each disc that do star Steve. Other than that they are informative and arrived in great condition ahead of time.

Great Toddler Educational Tool!
Very entertaining as with most Blue's Clues materials but more than that, this one captures the interest & motivation of learning for babies & toddlers. We're amazed at how fast our little one is retaining knowledge of the basics & her application of them when not watching the dvd.

This edition is one she chooses often!

We highly recommend for babies/toddlers & for use in daycare facilities & preschool!

Good, But
My kids love Blue's Clues. The show makes the presentation of the beginning to learn the subject given for each show very entertaining. My only problem was that the offered bundle of another DVD at a really reduced rate was one already included in the collection I was originally purchasing. It was a bit hard to tell which DVDs were in the collection, and I therefore thought I was getting a fourth DVD. Instead, I was getting a second copy of one in the collection already.

Good Shows, Frustrating Set-Up
I got this for my toddler who loves "Blues Clues" to break out on a long car-trip. While he and I love the videos (they're fun, calm, educational, and entertaining), the way these DVD's are set up is frustrating. Each one has four shows, but only two are accessible from the main menu, the other two are found in a "Bonus Episodes" section, so "Play All" isn't an option. After playing the first two episodes, I had to pull off the interstate so I could see the DVD screen and navigate to the proper menu and get the other episodes going. Unfortunately, I only found this out when I was going 70mph and got yells of frustration from my toddler in the back seat!

All in all, this is a great collection of "Blues Clues" episodes, but a pain to navigate through them!

Love this DVD Collection
This is an absolute great deal!! I ordered this collection on Sunday, received it on Tuesday afternoon. My toddler watched 2 of the 3 dvds yesterday and finished watching the other one today. I don't understand why others have said that Steve isn't on the dvds. Each one of the dvd's do have bonus episodes, most of the bonus episodes are of Steve and not Joe. I do think there are special features on each dvd. I know one dvd does have an interactive play feature. My toddler was playing it earlier.

Of course my toddler loves Joe and Steve both, so it was a win win situation for us. Definitely worth the money!!

Best price for 3 dvd
Nothing can't complain 3 new DVD for $19.99 with free shipping.
It's just I love Amazon! Glad I found it. It is expensive even at ebay.
My children love those dvd, watching over and over..good for educational as well. Learning colors, shapes, ABC and more. This 3 dvd teaches basic important things for pre-schooler to kinder children for sure.

Educational, entertainig, great for 3-5 year olds
My daughter (almost 4) just loves all the Blue's Clue's stories. And I as a mom don't feel too bad to sit my kids (my son is 21 months old) in front of the TV while I am cooking. Kids can really learn a lot from Blue's Clues and my daughter even responds to Steve or Joe when they ask something. The length of the episodes is just the right one as well.
This collection includes the DVDs Shapes and colors!, Blue's Big Band, and Blue Takes You to School.
