I mean, I can't lie and say I didn't watch a lot of PBS in my poor backwoods youth because it was literally the only non-adult (news, soaps, etc) TV available. Even when I was well above the age for its very young demo, it was still preferable to the incredibly boredom of those alternatives.*
Which makes it even more evil that they try to use it to push their politics now. I get legitimately mad thinking about how the simple nonsense I used to watch is now also a vehicle to sell their gay nonsense to literal toddlers.
*Most of these days it was either too hot, humid or too many bugs to do anything outside. Because the swamp is fun.
I have fond memories of watching shows like Dragon Tales, Between the Lions, Cyberchase and Wordgirl growing up. There was a lot to love about old PBS. But of course, they're banking on us associating our nostalgia with the new regime's propaganda.
Think you might be confusing it for another show. The only three hosts of the show are all still alive. It might make national news and be a massive day of mourning whenever Steve eventually goes.

Or simply not paying attention at all, and hoping we will just let the kids watch unmonitered because "how could Blue's Clues be a problem?"
I remember Blue's Clues more for the unnerving tendency of its hosts to off themselves.
