It had been years since we last saw him, but there he was, just as we remembered, in his signature green striped shirt and all (and definitely not dead). In the viral video posted to Nick Jr.’s Twitter account, the 48-year-old Nickelodeon alum gave his former viewers a heartfelt 'thank you,' and it seriously pulled the heartstrings.
