90's TV shows are back!

Back in April, Nickelodeon announced they were bringing back shows from when we were kids to run reruns.

Listen to the two stories I've linked here, it will bring you back...NPR covered it then, and today on my drive home from seeing some clients, NPR was revisiting this as the 90's block premiers tonight...

The "story" here is that as twenty-somethings we were the last crop of kids to use TV as our primary entertainment.  The half generation younger than us (even probably your younger siblings/cousins) had internet from the get-go and now all the playstations/wii's their hearts could desire.

Obviously, we had Nintendo, but for the most part we were glued to the TV vs. the game console/laptop, which is really different in comparison to the youth now, for instance.

So what pops into your mind when you think of the following?
Pete and Pete
Solute Your Shorts
All That
Double Dare
Clarissa Explains it All
Doug

...these were some of the shows that were highlighted in the clips, which sparked all sorts of memories for me.  There are tons more treasures from our youth (Alex Mack, anyone?).

You've probably also played the game "Remember that show?" where you describe the show you remember watching as a kid...it's so fun to reminisce.

Then there are also the elusive shows that you can see in your head when you close your eyes, but when you describe it no one knows what the hell you are talking about?  I had that for a long time with the Noozles. I forget who finally knew what I was talking about, but it was like my inner child had finally been acknowledged because I wasn't the only one who remembered this show.

Anyway.  Just wanted to let you know that Nick will be playing all of our old favorites starting tonight at midnight EST.

Enjoy reminiscing and being brought back to being a kid for a few hours.  Share your favorite shows on this post (below), and let me know if you catch any episodes that you love, now that they're replaying!

Until next time,
E
