Aw hell no!
That ain't old school.
Old school is YOU CAN'T DO THAT ON TELEVISION with Moose, Lisa, Alastair, Kevin, Brodie and Vanessa!
Old school is TURKEY TV.
Old school is BELLE AND SEBASTIAN, TODAY'S SPECIAL and DANGERMOUSE.

Best. Show. Ever.
Suzanne: I never use catalogs. I'd rather go in the store and see all the salespeople groveling and sucking up to you.
Julia: Pardon me, I never knew they were so solicitous at the K-Mart.

Ahhhhh the days of early cable. Why back in mah day Nickelodeon only ran 12 hours daily and then would turn into A&E (which actually, believe it or not, would show Arts and Entertainment shows) at 6pm.

Ah the innocence of yesteryear...
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Posted: 12/2/05 at 3:01pmI loved Legends of the Hidden Temple. best thing in the world. REally wanted to be on the show. Survior reminds me of it, sort of. And are you afraid of the dark was awesome too.
<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.
-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

It is a far, far better thing I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to, than I have ever known.

How much of a dork would it make me if I told you I'd found all the old YCDTOTV episodes on DVD -- including most of the very old, very Canadian episodes? And Belle and Sebastian on VHS thanks to an Australian friend who had taped the entire series?
Remember also how they used to show Dennis the Menace and Lassie all the time? I never watched that Star Trek cartoon or that other one about the lost cities of gold. But Today's Special, David the Gnome and Pinwheel entertained me on many a sick day.
And with this post, I am now a legend. Hmm. Five months. That's not too obnoxious, is it?

*dramatic sigh of forlorn nostalgia*
Some of my happiest memories are of curling up in the couch with my mom when I was sick as a child and watching Nick all afternoon. I also LOVED The Little Prince...

I don't watch much TV anymore...when I do, it's usually a surgery show on Discovery Health.
I just LOVE watching people get cut up, for some reason...

I find it funny that Marc Summers (host of Double Dare) had OCD. That show was so messy!
Rockos Modern Life was also a good one....and Doug used to be good...until they sold it to Disney. UGH. DISNEY RUINS EVERYTHING.

Posted: 12/2/05 at 3:34pmOh, I know, drama! I watched it on Disney one afternoon and suddenly Doug and Patti and Skeeter all looked way too cool. And I think they even thinned out Connie. What the hell! Where are the fat girls cartoon characters!

Clarissa Explains It All. Though Clarissa's outfits look completely insane today. :)
Ooh, and Rugrats! At least the episodes before they "revived" it and made the first movie. Afterwards it started becoming all stupid fart jokes. They lost the soul of it.

Posted: 12/2/05 at 3:48pmWhat was that show with the scary stories that were about as lamely scary as the woozles on Welcome to Pooh Corner? (there -- I mixed in an old-school Disney Channel reference to confuse everyone)

The show you're thinking of was "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" I used to watch it with this girl my mom made me hang out with.

Remember how the station used to just have the same lame commercials over and over again? Flexiblocks! I can't remember any others. I'll bet Mr. Wizard would know, though.
"We've got to strengthen our knees -- strengthen our knees for comedy. We've got to strengthen our knees. Strengthen our knees for Ha!"
If anyone remembers where that came from, I'll be seriously concerned.
eta: Yes, KG, that was the show. Ooh! The scarecrow's going to get me! Scary!
