Clifford's Puppy Days Clifford the Big Red Dog (2019)

Someone in a Clifford costume with people all around him.

John Ritter voices Clifford in every episode. By the time the series ended production and the subsequent film Clifford's Really Big Movie was completed, Ritter was back on ABC's prime time schedule, starring in 8 Simple Rules. Ritter's death on December 12, 2009, came less than two weeks before the debut of Clifford's Puppy Days (it is often mistakenly cited as the reason the spin-off was created in lieu of a third season). Reruns aired on PBS Kids Sprout from September 26, 2005 to September 20, 2009.

Though the production of Clifford ended before Ritter's death, voice actors for the main characters have reprised some of their roles for the Ready to Learn PBS Kids PSAs. Clifford's Really Big Movie served as the series finale, Clifford's Puppy Days still continued to air until its cancellation in 2006.

On May 16, 2018, Scholastic announced a reboot of the series of the same name, which was released on December 6, 2019, on Amazon Prime Video and December 7, 2019, on PBS Kids, starring Adam Sanders as the new voice of Clifford. PBS continued to air reruns of the 2000 series until 2022. Select PBS member stations still continue to carry the show.
