Blue’s Clues
In 2000, Patton took over Steve Burns’ role as Joe, the second host of Blue’s Clues, a children’s television show on Nickelodeon. Patton saw his initial setup for a role in Blair Witch Project 2 as a fortuitous coincidence. After 1,500 tryouts, he was chosen and commended for his sincerity and performance. Burns gave Patton hosting training and counseled him not to view the program as kid-friendly television. Compared to Steve, Patton’s character was more innocent and resembled a preschooler, which put him more in line with the preschool audience. He starred in Blue’s Room, the spin-off, and stayed on the show for 50 episodes until its conclusion in 2006. Throughout the course of the show, Patton and Burns had recurrent roles. In 2022, they co-starred in the Paramount+ film Blue’s Big City Adventure.
Gabby’s Dollhouse
He voiced CatRat, a Gabby Cat who is very sneaky, but cares deeply for his friends in the American live-action/computer-animated Gabby’s Dollhouse. He is the lovable, fun hoarder of everything sparkly. You never know when he might materialize out of nowhere from someplace inside the dollhouse because of his delicate bone structure, which allows him to fit into and out of any location! Even though he can be a bit of a know-it-all and believes he knows the solution to every issue that comes up, he actually has a nice heart and never fails to make his friends laugh.
CatRat is a dark blue-marked cyan blue cat. He has marks on his stomach, a white muzzle, and black eyes. He has a long, striped tail in addition to Medium Stone Gray paw tips.
Clarence
He was the voice of Mr. James “Jim” Reese, another teacher at Aberdale Elementary, and is usually seen watching the misbehaving students in the Detention Room for a majority of the time in the American animated television series Clarence. Mr. Reese is a middle-aged man who is tall and obese. He sports a mustache and is balding. He wears a green shirt, brown slacks, and shoes that are deeper brown.
Although Mr. Reese is typically shown as being lighthearted and loving doughnuts and coffee, “Dream Boat” demonstrates that he genuinely cares about his kids’ success because Sumo’s account of building a boat moved him to tears. Many of the episodes demonstrate how much he despises Belson for his constant imprisonment and excessive rudeness, although in “Dingus & McNobrain,” the two did get along a little. He thought Ms. Shoop’s attempt to ban Clarence’s farting cactus cartoon in “Freedom Cactus” was unfair because he loved it. It is shown in “The Substitute” that Mr. Reese need assistance from Ms. Baker in order to operate the coffee maker.
Team Umizoomi
He plays Bot for the entire Team Umizoomi. Bot is a friendly robot and one of the three characters in the Team Umizoomi series. He is Geo and Milli’s assumed protector and greatest buddy. They are all members of Team Umizoomi. Bot is an awesome robot outfitted with a variety of great gadgets and gizmos, including his Belly Screen, which can show the crew almost anything! He’s a singing, dancing, mechanical marvel who can extend his limbs and legs to any length. Bot can always provide Team Umizoomi with the information they need to succeed, regardless of the task!
