a stuffed duck named Boris. He owns a Handy Dandy Notebook similar to Steve's, but it is larger and shaped like the Thinking Chair. In later episodes of Season 5 and 6, Joe normally does not draw clues in his notebook and instead watches magically-animated versions of the clues appear. Although sometimes silly and younger than Steve, he seems to be more mature and straight-talking as he never gave out wrong answers during thinking time thanks to Steve advising him not to give out wrong answers. In the reboot series Blue's Clues & You!, Joe now runs the Present Store and appears as a recurring character. Josh (played by Joshua Dela Cruz) is the host of the revival series Blue's Clues & You! and the current host of the franchise. He is Steve and Joe's younger cousin and a talented singer. Josh's double-sided Handy Dandy Notebook has a phone on the other side, which he uses to communicate with the other characters. He is of Filipino descent as revealed in "Blue's Big Baking Show". Josh's favorite color is blue, and he wears a long sleeved blue striped shirt, blue jeans and blue sneakers with red laces. Josh plays an acoustic guitar in nearly every episode, his guitar has red swirls on it similar to those on the thinking chair. Josh is easily excited and, like Steve, occasionally gives out wrong answers to Blue's Clues before coming up with the correct answer much to Blue's amusement.

In each episode, Mailbox delivers a letter or informing an incoming e-mail after the host sings a special song called "Mailtime" and sits on the Thinking Chair. His letters contain video messages from children around the world that relate to the episode's topic. Mailbox has a thick Brooklyn accent and likes to crack jokes. He wants to be a comedian when he grows up and has a collection of postage stamps. Although he is normally stationed on a stake in the ground, he can use an "extendo" arm to move anywhere around the
