    I watched Blue's Clues as a child and I genuinely loved it. It was a great show and when the video of Steve telling us it would be OK came out during the pandemic I cried like a baby. It really felt like an old friend was telling me everything would be alright. And now MatPat is here to help me laugh instead of getting emotional

    Guys, wait. Think about it. She's not a alien. She's one of the fae. More specifically a changling.

    2: Dimensional travel.
    3: She came from the moonlight and either mimicked or replaced a regular puppy in the litter.
    4: She has a fairy guardian and a fairy house that hold a dimension of her own.
    5: She was granted to Steve when he wished for her.
    6: Fae are often appeased with sweets.

    Okay, but couldn't Blue's and Rainbow's purpose be just exploration?
    The smoking gun to your claim is the hub world, which stores all the places the dogs skidoo to, so they can re-visit these places later. To me, these resemble memories or collections of experience. Gathering these worlds in this place does not itself imply domination, but it does imply exploration. Given how friendly she is portrayed, the domination is a tough sell. Furthermore, exploration for its own sake is a valid goal. This drive is portrayed in similar popular media; to quote John-Luc Picard from Star Trek, "Space: the final frontier. This is the mission of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before." In short, I think your conclusion of domination and implicit malevolence is a stretch. I understand that subversion may sell, but judging from some of the top comments at this time, it may have been over-doing it. Or did you intend to make a stretch in reasoning to get people like me into making comments like these, thereby promoting this video in the TH-cam algorithm? Were you really playing 4D chess all along? You win this one, Mat Pat.

    My theory is that the rainbow dog thematically represents a dog dying and leaving its owner. A big part is the rainbow imagery.
    You talked about all these points in the video:
    the rainbow dog doesn't have an owner;
    as Blue becomes more like rainbow dog, she spends less time with her owner;
    the rainbow theming reminds me of the idea that when a pet dies they walk over a rainbow and wait for their owner to die as well.

    Fun Fact for MatPat and The Theorists: There was actually a dog named Bluey (yes like the show) a female Australian Cattle Dog born in Australia in 1910 who lived to be 29 years and 5 months according to Guinness World Records. While being an anomaly, this is still really impressive and I figured I'd share. On the tangent of kids shows, and the running theme of dogs, I highly recommend Bluey (the show this time) when Ollie is old enough, it is truly a good watch no matter your age. Also, I need a theory about the functionality of cats in the Bluey-verse because I can't be the only one to question it.

    Since you’re going down the anthropomorphic dog route, I’d like to suggest a theory on Bluey. Because, for a show about a happy dog family, there are a lot of theories. Here are a few you could look at or take a deep dive through:
    - Bandit, Chili, and Lucky’s dad are in a polyamorous couple
    - Chili had a miscarriage before having Bluey
    - Chili’s sister, Brandy, is infertile and can’t have kids
    - Chili’s dad was in the Vietnam war
    - Bandit and Chili separated for a bit after the birth of Bingo. This is why their parenting styles are different and Bluey starts to panic when she sees them arguing in an episode
    - The obligatory, “Bluey takes place in a post apocalyptic world after all of the humans died out”
    - Why can the dogs in the Bluey universe own cats? Why are only the dogs sentient?
    And my personal favorite one:
    - Why does Bluey’s evolution mirror our own? In the episode “Flat pack” (I believe), we see Bluey and Bingo go through the stages of evolution in their play. They begin as fish, then frogs, then lizards, then dinosaurs, then mice, then monkeys, then “cave dogs,” and then finally evolve to be civilized beings who can build stuff. That’s as much as I can remember anyway. So, if their evolution mirrors ours, did they evolve alongside what would have been humans/human-like creatures and beat us out for the top of the food chain? Did humans ever exist in this world’s evolutionary past? What elements of the past animals do the dogs of Bluey still have? Clearly they walk on two legs and have opposable thumbs like monkeys. Would it even be reasonably possible for all of those animals to slowly evolve into a dog? I mean, in our world obviously not. But this is a theory channel and I wanna know if all of the elements could possibly come together to form dogs.

    • @SatinFoxx
      @SatinFoxx ปีที่แล้ว +26

      A few of these (like Chili's dad and sister) are pretty concrete, as in they aren't spelling it out because kids watch it, but as adults we can put those events togeather.
      The polyamory one I don't see being a thing (though I'm not 100% caught up to the latest episode so I may be missing context for this) and the miscarriage one seems...possible while also being the most vague on if it was them a friend or just their knowledge of what this was about to do to Bingo (possibly saw Chilli's sister in that moment going through the same thing which puts 2 theories into 1.)
      All in all I say leave Bluey up to a different channel, but don't rule out Matt getting the urge to tackle kid shows like Bluey and Blue's Clues in the future.

    I guess I want to add into the theory that Steve knows more about this with Blue than anyone else since he manifested Blue first. With him knowing Blues odd age theres a chance Steve understands Blue isn't an ordinary dog and Blue probably tells Steve all about it since he understands his language.

    This all becomes much more terrifying when you remember that in Blue's birthday episode, Steve Skidooed out of the show, without Blue, into a child's living room and brought a clock to life. If Steve, a caretaker, has this much power, imagine Rainbow puppy realizing they're on a show and coming into the real world.

      maybe steve and the others were abandoned alien children and their parents sent blue and the others to find them, help them evolve into their Actual form...

      It's not a bad thought, but I don't think Blue would evolve into a caretaker, or the other way around.

    I don't know if Blue and the others are necessarily malicious, but the POTENTIAL for using that power for evil is there. In this era of remaking old cartoons and shows in a more adult way or making isolated movies with very out-of-character adventures, I could totally see someone trying to access the skidoo ability for malicious purposes. Maybe in a plot where Rainbow is being used or followed and the gang have to get to Rainbow's level to save her. Idk, maybe it's fanfic material.
    I'm glad Blue's Clues is still going with a reboot. I remember when Steve left the show as a kid and I was confused why they had this new dude instead, but now that I'm older, I like our third host and the updated storyline continuing. Why is a salt and pepper shaker family so compelling?
