Is it true?
Mm-hmm. I do, Id, I do-o :pac:

Loved nick when I was younger but I've no idea what they're showing these days and I wouldn't expect to like them, in fairness.

DancingQueen:)

I loved all of those programmes and now that you mention it I do miss them :rolleyes:

Rugrats - still watch it if it's on. A class part. The first two films were excellent.

Clarissa was a truly awful show! Doug was very good. I went to see the film.

Red Sleeping Beauty

90's kids telly was much better than today. At least the kids didn't mimmick the yankee accents.

Rugrats, Hey Arnold, Earthworm Jim, The Tick etc. all fantastic.

My favorite cartoons (Not Nickelodeon though) were Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain. They were just pure genius. Especially the nations of the world song.

In terms of Nickelodeon shows, Ren and Stimpy were just fantastic. So disgusting, witty and original. There will never be a cartoon to match it.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

A Classic Nickelodeon station would be pretty awesome or just a pre-2000 kids tv station where they can only show things that began in 1999 or earlier.

Haven't heard of Tucker in years!

What about The Adventures of Alan Strange or Alex Mack - Alex Mack wears a hat!

Angry Beavers was brilliant too.

MultiUmm

I remeber that show "Sista Sista" :P Aah, what good days the 90's were compared to the relatively s*it "noughties"

ronnie3585

Ah Tia and Tamera. I was in love with Tia when I was about seven.

This is some oldschool TCC stuff.

Purple Gorilla

I remember all of that I also remember in early 2000s there was a cartoon called The Weekenders..loved that!

Stevecw

Aw Keenan & Kel, what a show!
Remember nearly crying when one of them had to move house or somethin & not live with the other anymore!! Whatever way they did it, was very emotional & so so sad:(

But yea Sister sister was as it happens my sisters fave show at the time...so i used to end up seeing it...but oh god yeah that Tia was hot!! Never into Tamara so much!!

They're identical twins... If you think one is hot, then the other is hot also. The difference is with the personalities.

No they weren't identical at all!! Tia was hotter, there was a few differences for sure. Twins maybe, but identical never!

Did Sister Sister run on Nick? Did Pinky and the Brain? They don't sound very Nick-like?

cena

yeah sister sister was on nick.i'm not too sure pinky and the brain was they are made by wb

But when Sister Sister first air in the mid-1990s? I don't think Pinky and the Brain, Animanicas, tiny toons or Batman Animated series would have aired on Nick. I know they did show repeats of Sister Sister in the early 2000 and could continue to do so.

Is it just me or did kids TV seem a little less kiddy than it is now, Zoe 1O1 seems very childish in comparision to Sister Sister. And at the same time Zoe reinforce allot of sterotypes <<<< Thinking about that too much TBH.

I don't think The Tic would have either.

I agree, we had much less childish shows back in the 90s, but then came the moaning parents complaning of "adult themes" (e.g. relationships between teenagers, a simple reality of life!)

And yeah, Zoey 101 is full of stereotypes, but its still an okay show (that is, if i was a small bit younger!)

i would of thought that batman and others would been shown on the channel tcc or what ever they were called. sister sister was a nick programme. the ones mentioned above are all made by wb,but nick could of shown them on the nick channel

TCC wasn't Nick different company. and I don't think TCC had very many quality kids shows general the cheaper ones.

THE DEN, CBBC and CITV would have shown things like The Tic and Batman. I also don't think Nick or TCC broadcast Earthworm Jim but I could be wrong about that.

Nick have their own set of US shows so they generally don't buy from other producers who would have their own kids TV channels or have licence arrangements in individual countries.

I would definately question if Sister, Sister was air from 1994 to 1999 on Nick. It says on Wiki it was on between 1995 to 2000 with C4 having UK terrestrial rights.

sister sister was diffently on nick from start to finish. as i got to see the last ep that year it finished up on nick. i lnowit was on channel but nick had it before them. earth worth jim was on tcc.batman was also shown on bbc etc. maybe some of them could been on the carton network channel.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

I don't think they put Sister Sister in nick until years after it was shown on Channel 4 and RTÉ 2.
