Love it! Okay, people... Guess which shows goes with the quote (I'm gonna make them REALLY obvious)...

"Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society..."

"Shut it, Fergazoid!"

"I don't think this is such a good idea."

"Be quiet, you eeeediot!"

"Dear Journal..."

"...with your host, Kirk Fogg! And, here he is now!"

"It's 'I hope we never part.' Now, get it right, or pay the price!"

LOVED Clarissa, Doug, and Hey Dude. I so wanted to work on a dude ranch for many years of my life. Sad because I don't ride and don't like the outdoors!

"...with your host, Kirk Fogg! And, here he is now!"
Legends of The Hidden Temple

I remember every Saturday night watching the SNICK block. Anyone remember Roundhouse?

[DMsquared2]

"Eureka's Castle", yes. I don't remember the other one.

Fifteen, where Ryan Reynolds got his start.

Now, if ya remember "Out of Control" with Dave Coulier......

I <3 Nicktoons.

It boggles my mind that no one's put Doug on DVD yet.

[BroomstickBoy]

ROUNDHOUSE was my favorite.

I remember Fifteen, and Welcome Freshmen. Eureka's Castle was a favorite (LOVED the Slurms). R.L. Stine, of Goosebumps fame was a writer of that show I believe.

I watched all those shows, except Pete & Pete. I never got into that one. All the others, I was glued to the TV. Back when Nick was actually a decent network.


Remember when they had the Big Help and Kids Pick the President?

[Sandy in Sable]

Posted: 8/6/08 at 10:09pm

Yes, Out of Control with Dave "cut.it.out" Coulier and his sidekick Dizz who was always screeching those loud whistle notes.

[Calvin]

Posted: 8/6/08 at 10:13pm

Dizz was so Cyndi Lauper.

I started to cry when I saw photos of them renovating Nick Studios as a theatre for Blue Man Group.

Calvin, that's exactly what I was thinking as I wrote my post.

For those who don't remember Fifteen, it was a teen soap like Swan's Crossing (as if any of you remember that) that aired on Sunday afternoons. It was one of those so bad it's wonderful shows.

How come no one has mentioned Hey, Dude yet???? That was my favorite show. Christine Taylor got her start there.

I do remember Fifteen, but don't remember watching it very often.

Does anyone remember their two big variety shows that aired in the 90's? The first was a show called Total Panic, which was hosted by Molly Scott and Greg Lee (who later hosted Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?) and aired on Sunday mornings. They had guests, silly challenges (usually pitting kids against their parents), musical performances, and other mayhem. I remember they had Jodi Benson on once, to sing Part of Your World.

The other was an after school show called 'Outta Here. It was filmed at the (then) brand new Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando. They had a number of co-hosts, each one representing a different section of the audience (which was all wearing different colors), and one host who roamed Universal Studios, interacting with guests.

Both were lots of fun, and it's a shame Nickelodeon has nothing like them now.

Anyone remember Welcome, Freshmen? Howie D., from the Backstreet Boys, was on that show, I believe.

What about Wild and Crazy Kids? It's pathetic, but I still remember the names of the hosts, because they were introduced at the beginning of every episode- Omar Gooding, Donnie Jeffcoat, and Annette Chavez (fired after the first season, replaced by Jessica Gaines).

I could go on all night....

Yes yes yes, remember all of that.

My Brother and Me anyone?

[SNLMedia]

Posted: 8/6/08 at 10:54pm

Oh my gosh, this is my kinda thread!

"Clarissa" is still, in my opinion, the most innovative and clever show ever on Nickelodeon, period.

I remember "My Brother and Me". I think they only made like five or so episodes because I remember seeing them numerous times. It had some of the worst acting I've seen!

"Roundhouse" was awesome. A lot of the humor was bordering on mature-adult and I still got it back then. I remember it's the first time I heard someone say "freaking" on Nickelodeon.

Oh, why can't all of these shows come out on DVD? "Clarissa" put out season 1, which I snatched up quickly. Then they promised season 2 the following year, and that was 2005. UGH!

PETE & PETE is on DVD.

Rocko's Modern Life was my favorite. One of the funniest things ever on TV.

[mll85]

Posted: 8/6/08 at 11:07pm

Anyone remember the game show Nick Arcade. I always liked the end when they did that live video game.

I loved The Adventure of Pete and Pete. I would alway try to watch it when it was on.

Suprised no one has mentioned Hey Arnold!, Kenan & Kel, and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo.

This thread is amazing! I love reminiscing about some of my old favorites. I don't recall Fifteen and some of those shows but I loved Eureka's Castle, Snick, all of that. I remember going to Universal in Orlando when I was little and taking a studio tour. I totally saw the Big Orange Couch and from far away even saw Melissa Joan Hart filming an episode of Clarissa. Yeah, I was pretty cool. haha.

Are any of these shows available online? I know Clarissa is on dvd (at least season one) but most of the others are not. Thanks!

What about "You Can't do that on Television" and "Today's Special" They were probably more 80's than 90's but they rocked. And of course Mark Summers on Double Dare.

[adamgreer]

The Secret World of Alex Mack, anyone?

And, going way back to when I was in preschool...did anyone else watch The Elephant Show with Sharon, Lois, and Bram? That was my favorite show growing up, and one of my fondest memories from those early years was getting to see them in concert.
