Nickelodeon to air classic shows all month

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

I hope Angry Beavers wins. "Spoot" is one of the best pseudo-curse words ever.

 

Does anybody remember a kid's show from the 80's that starred three people and a person in an elephant suit? I want to say it was called "The Elephant Show", but I'm not sure. This thread got me thinking about it as well as other shows I saw as a kid like "Under the Umbrella Tree" and "Don't Just Sit There".

Not like it's a big deal or anything, and correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this the kids talk show that was the TV debut of Wil Fredle(sp?) or the older brother from Boy Meets World?

According to IMDB, you're absolutely right.

Who are these tools that Nickelodeon has introducing shows? What the hell happens to them when they're let go?

[Art Sandusky 0]

Just give me an old Nicktoons network. Show everything up to about 1998, or whenever Hey Arnold got new voice actors and started sucking.

 

Rocko's Modern Life is actually more enjoyable than Ren and Stimpy to me now. Back in the day, Ren and Stimpy was mah show, but Rocko has more staying power I think.

 

EDIT: See, the episode that was on at 6 is an example, where Arnold and Gerald go to a dance with the 6th grade girls. Funny premise, and the two of them channeling the 70s was the best.

They have one already called Nicktoons TV.

 

It's on digital cable and maybe satellite.

Picks for tomorrow (Friday, June 3rd):

 

My Brother & Me

All That

Hey Dude

Damn, damn, damn. I really want me some old All That (complete with Ross Perot and Pizza Man), but Hey Dude is, after all, Hey Dude.

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

My Brother And me lasted all of like 10 episodes...

 

so my pick goes Hey Douche.

It's a little wild and a little strange

When you make a home out on the range

Start your horse and come along

But you can't get a ride if you can't hold on

 

Singing

Hippy-ti-yi-ya (Hippy-ti-yi-what?)

Like the cowboys say (Sing it again now)

Hippy-ti-yi-ya (Get along little doggies)

'Til the break of day

 

Better what out for those man-eating jack rabbits

And that killer cacti

 

Heeeeey Duuuuude...................

[Guest slacklet]

Hippy-ti-yi-ya (Hippy-ti-yi-what?)

I'm pretty sure it was "yippy kai-yai-aye" or something to that effect.

 

But I like your interpretation better.

Did All That win? I would guess it would cause its got more star power than Hey Dude and My Brother and me...Hell I don't even remember My Brother and Me, and I'm sure the kids have no idea what "Hey Dude" is. So I wouldn't at all be surprised if All That won.

Hey Dude - 89%

 

Booyah.

Good. I'd rather watch a marathon of fucking Catdog than My Brother and Me. I'm embarassed that spooty show took place in my hometown.

Come on, give Goo some lovin'. He was the only bright spot in the show.

 

Maybe DiDi and ...uh, Alphie?'s dad. Him starting a story about flair vs. Valentine is gold!

 

And uh...Goos cousin's...Moo...and....Blue.

 

And Kendall Gill made a guest appearence!

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

And Kendall Gill made a guest appearence!

Oh christ.....I actually saw that one.

Why the hate on My Brother and Me? It wasn't the worst show in the world or anything.

 

 

Are they ever going to show Are You Afraid of the Dark?

[Guest netslob]

Fifteen. It was referenced earlier in this very thread. Ryan Reynolds, who played Van Wilder in the movie of the same name, was on it.

this show was just sooo delightfully bad:

 

"I think Matt has a drinking problem..."

 

"What are you talking aboot?"

 

and what the hell was up with that pinball machine? the damn thing wasn't even fuckin' PLUGGED IN!! they'd just stare straight ahead, hitting the paddles randomly, and spout their lines. god that show was bad...but in a GOOD way.

I'm sure they will. They've got all month.

I loved it when the one guy confronted Ashley about Dylan's drinking problem. It went something like this:

 

Matt: Ashley, we need to talk.

Ashley: About what?

Matt: Your boyfriend has a drinking problem.

Ashley: Why would you say that?

 

:: Matt holds up carton of buttermilk ::

 

Matt: I found this in his locker.

Ashley: OH MY GOD ::cries:: NOT BUTTERMILK!

 

 

It was implied that buttermilk covers up alcohol on one's breath if they had been drinking, so of course they jump to the conclusion that buttermilk = alcoholic.

 

Corny shit.

[Guest Smues]

I like this concept, although I have a feeling all the shows I want will never win. Where's Count Duckula?

[BUTT 0]

Yeah, Fifteen was awesome.

 

Dylan: Well look, it's the Matt Walker. May I touch your raiment?

Matt: My what?

Dylan: It means shirt.

Matt: Where'd you learn that, steal a dictionary?

Dylan: ALL RIGHT, PUSH IT WALKER! JUST KEEP PUSHING IT!!

(Dylan and Matt nearly get into a fight)

The Indian kid on Hey Dude is maybe the WORST actor I have ever seen in my life.

 

How did this kid get a job???

[Guest slacklet]

"well if it isn't the senior staff infection"

 

Awesome.

 

I take back my earlier coimment, Brad was indeed hot.

[Guest slacklet]

Trivia: he died last month

Question. Was I the only one that wanted to have a 3 way with Melody and Brad back in the day?

 

But, looking at them now I think Melody looks cute while I don't think Brad is really that good looking.

[Drury37 0]

Here's another one: There was some dumb soap opara-type show about these crazy kids in high school. I can't think of the title though.

 

There was the jock with the booze problem, some blonde chick that was his girlfriend. Another chick that wanted the jock, and, damn, I can't remember anyone else. I think there was a chinese kid. Oh well...

Welcome Freshman and as I read through the rest of the posts maybe not but Welcome Freshman was still a very good show.

Thanks.

Aw.

 

BTW: My Brother And Me...TERRIBLE show. Do a board search, somewhere I printed every script of that show.

 

"But Alfie!"

I don't think I would've grasped the concept of a "3-way" at that age.
