When I worked on “Blue’s Clues Live” in the late 90’s, early aughts, there was a “Planet Song” in the show. “Steve” stopped the song at different moments in order to let the kids sing out the right answer as to what the planets were/did.
Musically, and I suspect to keep the parents interested, one of the logical places to stop the song was at Uranus. “Uranus does what?” was one of the best things to hear Steve say over 1000 performances, and I still have the T-shirt.
BTW, The answer was “spins on its side.”
I don’t think this title is accidental. The first line in the article continues the joke: “Uranus isn’t just gassy”. Somebody had a blast writing this.
