Possibly home to the best television shows of all time (of all time), Nickelodeon programs during the 90s make us all d'aww with nostalgia, especially if you see some of the, pardon my french, crap that they have on there now (iCarly makes me giggle sometimes, is that wrong?)

Well I say to you, my fellow 90s babies, weep no more, because this fall Nickelodeon will be rerunning some of the classic shows of our childhood. No, your eyes are not deceiving you, Nickelodeon is dipping its lucrative hand into our hippocampi and plucking our beloved memories of the best shows ever made and putting them in the 12am-2am time slot this fall.

So far 5 shows have been confirmed:
Clarissa Explains It All- Melissa Joan Hart breaks the fourth wall and tells us her life and all the teenage drama llamas that accompany it, as well as dealing with her little brother Ferguson. 10CC to whoever names their child Ferguson. Hard to decide whether I liked this show or Sabrina the Teenage Witch more, something about shooting magic out of my finger seemed appealing....ladies.


Pete & Pete- I don't actually remember watching this show, but I do know it was about two gingers. This fact, aided with the ideas of philosopher John Locke, has led me to theorize that while I was watching the show, my soul left my body in order to populate theirs, leaving me with no memory of the experience.


Kenan & Kel- Who loves orange soda? Kel certainly did, and in a time before the government could regulate the use of welfare on sugary drinks (he had to be getting the money somehow, I mean where were his parents?), I believe it was the main theme of the show. Chris's mother must be very happy about the forthcoming reruns.

Or not...

All That- Probably my favorite of the classics, this "SNL for preteens" had a variety of hilarious sketches performed by Nickelodeon's most beloved of cast members. Excuse me while I list every skit that comes to mind; Detective Dan, Earboy, Randy & Mandy, Dear Ashley, Good Burger, Principal William Baines Pimpell, Repair Man..man..man..man, and my personal favorite, Vital Information for Your Everyday Life with my girl Lori Beth Denberg.


The Amanda Show- Amanda Bynes.


While there are sooooo many more shows that I miss that are exploding out of my heart like last night's episode of House as I write this, I simply cannot wait to sit in a puddle of nostalgia-y goo and watch my favorite shows as they bring back all the pleasant memories of my childhood, this time without having to block out the background noise that was my parent's unstable marriage.
 
Kenan and Kel is one of the greatest works known to man.

I am quoting this because it is so damn true. I loved this show, and because of Kenan i now love SNL 100 times more. This show was just freaking great.

They need to start showing Kenan & Kel again! The Amanda Show would be nice to see on again, too, I guess.
 
Is this for only Teen Nick and Nicktoons? Or will they be running these on basic cable Nick as well?
 
Not to kill anybody dreams or anything but Nickelodeon is toying around with the idea to re-start some of the shows from the golden age.

Don't know if this is real or not but I always love to dream...

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
And omg. I love Inspector Gadget! I can sing the whole theme song and I'm pretty sure as a child, I had a crush on him. Whoop whoop! Lol.

Nickelodeon was great in the 90s, but you have to give credit to Warner Brothers for their kids entertainment during the decade. They did:

Batman: The Animated Series
Tiny Toon Adventures
Animaniacs
Pinky and the Brain
Freakazoid!


Oh, and mad props remembering The Adventures of Pete & Pete. When I bring the show up to any of my friends who grew up during the 90s, no one knows what I'm talking about. Also:

I just miss Power Rangers :(. have you watched the new ones? they are lame
 
I remember Pete and Pete! That show was good times.

Although, all I want is Ahhh Real Monsters, Doug, Rocko's Modern Life, and Rugrats (which Rugrats is still played on nick in the morning time around 7am or so.)
