Differences[]
- Sidetable and Mailbox have labels in this episode, but Snail doesn't. In the original episode, it was the other way around.
- Josh had his name on the back of his shirt like Steve did but spelled his name instead of Steve.
- The original episode had Steve whisper-reading “The Boy & His Puppy” from A Really Great Book to himself, but in the remake, Josh reads “The Boy & His Puppy” from A Really Great Book out loud to the viewer. The remake also had music to go along with “The Boy & His Puppy” story.
- The part where Steve and Blue read "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" was omitted.
- The original episode's paw print cleanup involved Steve drawing the letter P on the paw print, then it pops by itself. In this episode, Josh poked the paw print and caused it to pop, leaving the word "POP" (which also starts with P) behind in the same color as the paw print behind, which also popped.
- Steve’s notebook was labeled on the back. Josh’s was labeled on the front.
- The moon that was the 1st clue was in a book about space and planets instead of a dictionary.
- Sage and Ginger are with Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper instead of Paprika.
- Blue helps with the grocery list, unlike the original.
- Juice was not included on the grocery list in this episode, but it appeared in place of the eggs in the cabinet where the milk was found.
- In the original episode, the milk and the cereal had their names on them, while the bread had its label positioned diagonally, the banana had its label on its inner curve, and the labels for the brownie and pineapple are round with wavy edges. In this episode, all of the food have labels are positioned and shaped straight and square.
- The cow representing the 2nd clue was a drawing instead of a picture, and the pictures of a cantaloupe and cake were replaced by drawings of an apple and book respectively.
- When Steve drew the cow, he didn’t say, "the face" or, "a splotch on her back".
- The cow that Steve drew had a circle body instead of an oval.
- Steve didn’t say anything when he drew the cow’s tail.
- Blue has cards to sing along to the Mailtime song, but the viewers aren't heard singing along to the words.
- In the reboot, Blue barks after the Mailtime song was finished. In the original, she did not bark.
- In the original, Steve also didn't sing the "Mail" at the end of the song, but in the reboot Josh does sing it.
- In the original episode, Mailbox delivered the letters A, B, and C in addition to the video letter. In this episode, he only delivers the letter E because Josh has an e-mail.
- Josh does not point out the word play Mailbox uses with "Letters" nor does he call Mailbox a funny guy, both of which, Steve did in the original.

- In the original, Steve asked if the moon jumped but remained crooked. In the remake, it actually jumped for real.
