I watched this all the time as a kid (4 to 6 year old). but the only eps i vividly remember are the one where the puss driver as stuck at the red light all episode and there was anothwr where a teacher had veins that were a perdect map of their town.

Im sure if i ever rewatched the show other memories would flood back.

>>220764135
Do it, the show is great. Especially if you like 90s alternative music, they had some awesome bands. Magnetic Fields on a kids show? Get out of here.

I always liked it when kid shows/movies had an adult buerocratic antagonist that uses his position to make the children miserable just cause he is jelous.

I also liked how in that show Kids Next Door there was this essential forever war going on between kids, teens and adults. The show was sorta shit cause it never really fully realized its concept

At the end of summer I always think of the episode where younger Pete and Artie fight the tides. I have reenacted that many times.

I rewatched this for the first time in 30 years when Trachtenberg died. Based on my vague memories I did go in assuming it would be good, but by the time I was done watching I was utterly convinced it is, without hyperbole, one of the greatest television shows ever produced. True lightning in a bottle. If anyone in this thread is on the fence, trust me, just watch it.
>>
>>220763899
I was about a year or two too young for this show, and it had already went over my head. I can't imagine someone ten years younger getting it.

Help me out with a repressed memory - was there an episode about extreme summer heat where the kids were trying to do something and they set off as a group but started dropping out one by one?

Because I remember an episode with a similar premise, except it was about trying to stay awake and they started dropping off until the end, but I swear there was a summer one as well.

No he was Artie, The Strongest Man In The World. Didn't you pay attention?

>>220764916
There was a time when we had laughs accompanied by surreal absurdism that let the viewer in on the joke like Fernwood Tonight or Mama's Family.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8NJKS9GLHo
>>
>>220764791
Both of those are real episodes. The one about staying awake is burned in my brain because Nickelodeon used a clip from it where Artie says "I don't believe you can catch me, for I... am super freaky" during flashlight tag in a promo they played a million times.
>>
>>220764959
But then we had other shows that started making the viewer question wtf was going on. Subversion with a bit less malice than we see today. Maybe not much less though.

More like a product of autism. He was an imaginary friend, but Little Pete had the power to manifest reality and Wellsville just accepted it without question.

Zoomers will never understand what it means to come home from school, turn on the TV, check the same 3-6 channels and watch something you don't really care about just because it's the only thing on.

I occasionally think about trying those live action shows like Pete and Pete and Salute your shorts. I hated these shows as a kid. Taking away precious air time from cartoons.

Me too. I just remember younger Pete sticking an eraser or marshmallow or something of.. Martin van Buren? Up his nose and it getting stuck. I didn't remember at all that Buscemi was in it. Maybe I'll give it a watch.

I got the full series for my kids, they were born 2011-2015 and all three of them LOVE this show. I guess they're more alpha than zoomie but do not despair anon, some of us young Xers/old millennials are passing down 90s greatness to our kids.

It's mid and boring and completely unenjoyable as a kid. You need to be 9, or possibly younger to give a shit about it, even way back then. Way the fuck back then with shitty gayass Hannah Barbera reruns, and the faggoty OG My Little Pony cartoon. Not the modern shit. The old My Little Pony, that didn't have the tactc and friendly understanding of modern child psychology and thus couldn't mask the fact that it was made by someone very clearly clinically ill, and you could feel the mental illness through the show.

Pete and Pete is for kids who lived through the 90's as pre-internet kids, and who get reminded of the mechanisms of childhood thinking and local organic communities.

It's far more interesting as a faggotless niggerless time-capsule of normalcy, than an actual show.
