>considered by its fans to be the best live action Nick show ever made
>critics loved it
>it's even considered a show you don't even need to have nostalgia for to fall in love with
>yet it wasn't even the most popular live action Nick show when it was airing new episodes
Why were stuff like Clarissa Explains It All (which was towards the end of its run in new episodes when Pete and Pete premiered as a full series), Are You Afraid of the Dark, All That and The Secret World of Alex Mack more mainstream than Pete and Pete if Pete and Pete is usually considered a better show than all of those ones? The show was still a popular one, but it never was as mainstream as the ones I mentioned.

>>222452278
I've even seen people say it's the only live action Nick sitcom that holds up and yet, it wasn't even the most popular one when it was at its peak of popularity.

Unc here who watched all those shows as a kid. Yeah I liked Pete and Pete but it was probably the show I was least excited for. Always found it boring, if a little charming. I much preferred Clarissa cause MJH was hot and I liked the segments when she solved the episodes problem with video game graphics

Expound on your claim.

The show is underrated even though it aired in a mainstream channel kinda like radiohead and pink Floyd are famous but not appreciated by everyone.

Blake holsey high was a sci fi mystery show that was similar in vein to Alex Mack. Very cool and Saturday morning kino.
>>
>>222452542
I don't think Blake Holsey High was on Nickelodeon.

>>222452312
What made All That a better show? That's a show I've seen people say you had to be a kid to enjoy it, while Pete and Pete it doesn't matter what age you are, you can get something out of it. It was a kids show, but a kids show that wanted to also appeal to people of any age. It was a unique sitcom.
>>
>>222452596
It wasnt but it captured the essence of a fun kid's mystery while being entertaining as well. Same way Pete and Pete capture oddball adventures and quirky characters.

From what I remember there weren't that many epsisodes so it didn't get rerun as often as other Nick shows. I think it only came on once a week. It was my favorite show that wasn't a cartoon, but I barely remember getting to watch it all that often. Pretty sure it wasn't on that afternoon block with Salute Your Shorts or anything.
>>
>>222458937
Yeah, it usually was only on the weekends. Occasionally it would air on a random weekday during Nick in the Afternoon with Stick Stickly, but it never had a regular 5 day weekday slot like Clarissa Explains It All, Salute Your Shorts (which had 26 episodes, less than Pete and Pete), Are You Afraid of the Dark, Alex Mack or All That had when it comes to shows that had new episodes during Pete and Pete's run. Also, Legends of the Hidden Temple, but that show was sort of created for weekdays since it went to weekdays very soon after it premiered like 6 or less months.
>>
>>222458703
Somehow I remembered all the lyrics to that before clicking on it, haven't thought about the show in forever.
>>
>>222452278
I'd be surprised if anyone preferred Disney Channel over Nickelodeon in the 90s considering not only did you have to pay extra just to get Disney Channel meaning it was for rich kids, but also Disney Channel was so meh. It was very bland and it was mostly just reruns anyway aside from a few preschool original series and a few other bland originals. Nickelodeon had a lot more fun and creativity to it.
>>
>>222459309
Yeah, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network had a big head start over Disney. I remember my little brother watched it, but I was a bit too old for it by that time. I'm sure plenty of kids grew up loving As Told By Ginger, but that came years after the real Saturday Morning Cartoon era.

Revisionist history. I never watched Spongebob, but I remember how crap a lot of Nickelodeon shows were before Spongebob turned the network around. I sure as hell wasn't watching Catdog and Rocket Power.
>>
>>222459432
Unfortunately, Nick was already going downhill before the Sponge started invading the schedule. SpongeBob didn't even start airing everyday until July 2001. Around 2000, Nick doubled Rugrats' weekday slots from two slots to four and the channel was losing variety as well. If SpongeBob didn't exist, Nick would've probably just spammed more Rugrats.

I remember it was hard as fuck to find shows in the 90s with switching timeslots, sports, and abrupt cancelations.

>>222452278
Something interesting about Nickelodeon back then is you'd expect their weekday lineup to mainly consist of original series since even by 1994, they had plenty of original series on their lineup, several of which had either ended or were created for weekdays specifically by then. Back then to get on weekdays you had to either be made with weekdays in mind, have ended or made it to 65 episodes. However, most of Nick's weekday lineup was syndicated reruns. Even in 1994, Nick's weekday lineup while it had stuff like Doug and Rugrats and Clarissa Explains It All, it also aired shows like Rocky and Bullwinkle and Looney Tunes. Even in 1997 it was mostly syndicated stuff. Tiny Toon Adventures was a pretty big part of Nick at one point, despite it already ending by the time it came to Nick.

it was like proto philosophy packaged for early teens. For single digit aged children like myself at the time I got more enjoyment out of the high energy in your face laugh shows. I recently watched pete and pete and it's still good and the messages are still relevant. I started rewatching are you afraid of the dark and even though it's still entertaining i got bored after like 3 seasons. I would never go back and watch something like all that or salute your shorts now though.

SNL has classics from every era and what of Mad TV? Nothing. Key and Peele was the only decent thing to come from there.
Mad Magazine was fucking awesome though.

Guess it depends on how old you were at the time. I’m around the same age as Danny Tamberelli and I could certainly discern the difference in quality and craftsmanship behind Pete & Pete compared to cheap looking kids sitcoms of the era.

Roundhouse surprisingly didn't last too long in reruns after it stopped having new episodes. Reruns were basically completely gone not long after the show stopped having new episodes. That might sound typical of shows, but considering Nickelodeon used to rerun their shows for years after ending, it's odd that Roundhouse was gone only a handful of months after new episodes stopped.

Late 1998-mid 1999 is when Nick shifted into the Y2K Era (SpongeBob, Thornberrys, CatDog, Rocket Power) and got rid of so many of their pre-Hey Arnold shows, even in reruns: Hey Dude, Salute Your Shorts, Pete and Pete, Clarissa Explains It All, The Secret World of Alex Mack, Nick Arcade, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Are You Afraid of the Dark, etc. This may be why a lot of younger Millennials haven't heard of these shows.

Every episode made you nostalgic for being a teenager, even if you were a kid. It achieved retro kitsch novelty while taking place in modern day. It also attracted a bunch of good talent. It is bizarre that they won’t be able to make something like it again.

That's true and surprisingly, even Angry Beavers was removed not long after those shows. Well, Angry Beavers was removed from their regular lineup in 2001, but still.

I will say Are You Afraid of the Dark was still on until 2000, because it had new episodes again during 1999-2000.
>>
>>222471159
The reason I say surprisingly Angry Beavers is because that came out after Hey Arnold.

I've looked at old Nick schedules (thanks to Nickstory) and while Angry Beavers still aired sometimes after 2001, it was mostly gone after 2001. It wasn't even on for that long either. I think only like 4 years on the regular lineup.

Everybody debates over whether Alex takes the antidote to remove her powers or not. I say she does out of guilt to her parents for all the years of lying, but it's not a permanent fix. However, they overlook the scene of the chemicals that gave them to her in the first place leaking into the sewers, and odds were Season 5 was going to have Paradise Valley turning into a superpowered Love Canal.

This actually illustrates why I love Pete & Pete so much. Unlike iCarly or Victorious which featured characters living in cool cities and wanting to be famous, Pete & Pete was about normal looking kids growing up in the average suburbs.

They're not comparable shows what a stupid opinion its like saying you like onions more than shovels

>>222475305
I also hung out with the strongest man in the world.

That’s the magic of the show though. As a kid in the suburbs, you find ways to make the ordinary special.

Didn't someone break into the warehouse where they had all the produced but unreleased copies of the the season 3 dvd set and leak it online? Pete & Pete was my favorite show when I was young. I didn't give a shit about any of the other live action shows except Are You Afraid of the Dark and Goosebumps.

>>222478919
Based knower. Always skipped salute your shorts. All that was a hit and miss like snl.
>>
>>222478919

No other those other shows still have the emotional impact of Pete & Pete as an adult for sure.

The comments are saying they tried to get the rights for the pixies but it fell through. Who plays at the end then?
On another note, it was cool to see the actor in halt and catch fire.

The creators said on one of the DVD commentary tracks that they wanted to use a Pixies song but it would’ve been way too expensive. Always thought this one would’ve been good:

Hey Dude fucking sucked. The only reason why people remember that trash is the theme song. At least Salute Your Shorts had Zeke the plumber.
>>
>>222480475
>>222480578
Yeah, Hey Dude doesn’t hold up at all. It was shot on tape so it has that cheap soap opera look. It’s only really notable for the theme song and Christine Taylor being in it.

Pete and Pete was weird. Clarissa, Hey Dude, and Salute Your Shorts were all better shows.

>>222482039
What a contrarian opinion you have there. Cute.

Somehow Pete & Pete had a ton of legit indie rock cred. The theme song is a certified banger. The show was honestly too hip for booger-nosed kids.

Disney Channel had really good original movies but their cartoons and regular shows sucked ass compared to both cartoon network and nickelodeon. I had all 3 growing up and from my recollection the best Disney Channel original movies were Smart House, luck of the Irish, Brink, and of course Halloweentown though I'm sure I'm forgetting more. Zenon was pretty dumb but got a pass from me because I had a crush on the main actress.

OP, the only thing that popped in my head was…. It was punk rock. I loved Nirvana so it was right up my alley. Like…. Idk how to explain it. I was a boy in the 90s with a little brother so I could totally relate. But yeah idk man…. This show is SO fucking good. Supposedly there was a partial 3rd season that was filmed that’s locked away in warehouse somewhere… or am I thinking of Salute your shorts… which never had any physical releases.
Anyway, as much as I love both those shows…. They kinda make me sad at the same time. Like…. Melancholy might be the closest word I can use to describe the feeling. Being 40 sucks
>>
>>222453477
whoa whoa whoa......what are you talking about? There actually was a season 3 physical release? or....did it just air on tv?

True! but.... the cool thing about pete and pete was they had a whole dedicated band that made music for them. They are actually pretty good ngl, i used to listen to this full album all the time.

I still find it crazy that Nick reran stuff like Lassie and Flipper in the 90s.
>>
>>222481862
Cousin Skeeter was way after all those shows. That's very late 90s bordering on 2000s slightly since it was late 1998.
>>
>>222480475
I tend to forget that You Can't Do That on Television apparently had regular reruns til 1994, but in its last years I think it was only on either saturday or sunday. Maybe both, but I wanna say last I checked it was only one of those two days.
>>
>>222452278
It often was the first live action show after a long block of cartoons that started in the morning and ended late in the afternoon. So naturally, it was a difficult transition for Nick's audience. As a kid, it was basically a sign to turn off the tv and go to bed or do something else.
>>
>>222485771
I remember when nick would play i dream of Jeannie and bewitched and taxi. George Lopez show still feels contemporary to me. He has had two shows since then. Flabbergasting.

For a while, Nick was trying to make the next Alex Mack, but most of them didn't really find the same success and vanished fast. Then they gave up and focused solely on kid sitcoms.

Songs, plural. Polaris acted as the 'house band' so to speak and provided several great songs for the show. I actually find it similar to how The Pillows provided the soundtrack for FLCL.

Kids don't need Jews to like black music. I liked Stevie Wonder when I was 6 and bought Mix-a-Lot's Swass on cassette when I was 10.

You act like if it weren't for Jews TV would have been nothing but white people. Jews ARE white.
And only a moron would ignore all the other demographics.
You schizos are so retarded. It's so tiresome seeing all your bullshit posts every day.

lol, if you need to be told someone is not white then they're white. Sorry, I don't make the rules. You can reference "early life" all you want and make sure everyone here is informed that so-and-so is Jewish, but no one fucking cares. We just see them as white people.
So do you. You're just fronting that you're some strict anti-jew bigot. You don't avoid movies with jew involvement because you'd be left with nothing.

You're a fucking retard. All of you are. Too much time online. Not enough friends or sex.

Everyone involved in that show had their kids vaccinated and there was no Measles in the United States.

You fucking morons were broken by covid. If not you were even dumber and broken by Jenny McCarthy.
Vaccines save lives.
Except when they KILL YOU. Of course that's always two weeks away. I had six boosters and I'm fine.

That may or may not be true. But I suffered no downside and neither did anyone else. Again, this has nothing to do with retarded hicks keeping their kids from Measles, Mumps, and Rubella.
You're missing the point. You're all just generally anti-vaccine now because you're too fucking stupid.

You didn't know either. Because it's not apparent. No one in the world can pick a jew by sight. The fact that you research that about people just shows how stupid and hateful you are. Jews have no bearing on your life whatsoever. This is all in your conspiratard mind.
