Steve Burns is back. The green-striped rugby shirt is gone, along with the hair, but the Blue’s Clues star’s presence will always be a comfort to the millions who grew up watching — and he seems to know it.
The day after the election, with tens of millions of Americans suddenly suffering from depression and dread at what’s coming, Steve returned to give us a moment of peace.

In an extremely calming TikTok video, he wordlessly offers us a cup of coffee and just sits and takes a moment to breathe in the fresh, cool, country air. It’s a moment so many of us need. Ch-ch-check it out:

Aw! Tons of followers let him know just how helpful this was, too! The comments section lit up with love and appreciation from fans:
“I bet you didn’t think you’d still be raising us all these years later, Steve, but thank you for still being here.”
“He didn’t say A WORD and said everything at the same time. This man should be guarded at all costs and I also want to marry him lol ”
“Didn’t even say anything. Just cried.”
“Steve I’m trying real hard not to cry at my big girl job today but it’s not easy.”
“We are not ok Steve. This was not in the notebook ”
“I just saw Steve, Sesame Street, and my Korean dad all comforting me back to back, and I don’t know what that says about my needs right now”
“Thank you for sitting with us.”
“You are exactly what we need right now.”
