Yeah often times they appear on Sex and the city. Ryan, Cyril, McM****, the guy who played the cello, and Omar white have all been on SATC.

It's wierd when they show up their. Way out of context to what I am used to.

my other favorite shows:

[usfhett03]

Yea, the NFL pressured ESPN to cancel the show because it portrayed the NFL very negatively. Not too mention that ESPN has a mjor contract with the NFL and the television contracts are up in two years. I am hoping that one of the premium channels, like HBO or Showtime would pick up the series.

[neotope]

The one and only - Seinfeld.

[Cmdr.Awesome]

Spiderman on MTV it ruled

[Yummi]

[WallaceD]

Agreed. It was the Joni and Chachi (sp) of sci-fi.

[booyakafoo]

it is still technically a canceled show....

futurama was was good
playmakers was the shizzle

Boy Meets World
The Critic
American Gladiators
Super Sloppy Double Dare
Rocko's Modern Life

[ninoid]

OZ, for sure. It's a good thing I can catch the past seasons on In Demand from Time Warner Cable. I plan to buy all the seasons sometime soon, but each season costs around $70.00 for 8 episods. $40.00 would be more resonable, but since I like the show so much, I'll pay the $70.

Seinfeld is the other show, but all the re-runs keep me entertained. I can see 8 episodes per day, if I want.

And hopefully one that won't come to an end for a long, long, long time, is my ultimate favorite: The Simpsons. What geniuses! I watch at least two or 3 episodes per day, and I record 4 episodes/day on my DVR.

[jackdaniels]

my other favorite shows:

Hidden Hills

Hidden Hills - hands down one of the funniest shows on network TV.

I hate when they cancel the show in the middle of the season.

[pdx77]

The Smurfs

Newsradio
Nightcourt
Star Trek: The Next Generation

[dustman81]

Family Guy
Rocko's Modern Life
The Adventures of Pete and Pete
(Yes, I was a Nickelodeon junkie)

But Family Guy is coming back in January '05! YAY!

[mcurtiss1970]

Adventures of Pete & Pete was one of the best shows ever created. I wish I could buy all the episodes on DVD.

[LoDown3]

animaniacs was awesome until they had to sing every episode. why in god did they have to sing all the time?

I missed the guy that would shake your hand and never shut up, never letting go of your hand.

[Vizi]

There was this really good show on the USA Network called Good Vs. Evil. I guess it didn't catch on to good but I liked it alot.

[michelle]

Three's Company! I loved you Jack Tripper!

[DreamSiren007]

Perfect Strangers, Three's Company, Ducktales, Party of Five, Dawson's Creek, LA Law, Doogie Houser.. and lots more...

Yikes! Doogie Houser, Perfect Strangers??

Remember Life Goes On?

Wonderyears was good until they got old. Then I was glad it was put to an end. Alot of shows just run out of material. What was that spinoff from the Cosby Show? I can't remember the name. That one seemed to just fade away. I'm afraid cutting edge shows like 24 will disappear in shambles cause of the writing it takes to maintain it. X Files was awesome until they got away from conspiracies. Then it turned into a sort of detective show instead. Alien Nation was cool but got stupid real quick. Anyone remember if they ever accepted those bald people?

Hercules and Xena was cool until they got retarded and started singing and going into the future. Then it turned into WWF.

Then there are shows that flop on the networks but get picked up by cable channels (such as family guy). The Tick and Dr. Katz had better success on Comedy Central. Bonzai was awesome but was canceleld quick and is now running on Comedy Central.

Then there are the shows we wish we'd never have to see again! Like America's Funniest Videos. How many times can we see the same clips? Hell the internet has less repetition (with funny clips) than that show!

Sorry, had to rant. :)

[WallaceD]

Speaking of Degrassi... The N shows Degrassi: The Next Generation, and it's very good!

It's quite clever, the concept. The main character is Emma, Spike's daughter (whom she had on the original Degrassi) and she now attends Degrassi Community School. DCS is what Degrassi High morphed into.

Some old school Degrassi grads are on there too (Joey, Snake, Spike... they are regular cast members.)

[nohbdyshero]

oh the Incredible Hulk!!!! i loved that show with Lou Forigno

[chucka]

Does anyone remember "You Can't do that on Television" or "Don't just sit there"?

Those were on Nickelodeon in the 1980's.

[dboogie2288]

Wow, welcome to the early nineties on nick.......

all sorts of good memories on shows here, this is hilarious.

[chucka]

was that the one where if you said "i dont know" they poored green slime on you?

[Matt]

Yes and water if they said "water" . :)

[pdx77]

was that the one where if you said "i dont know" they poored green slime on you?


Yep, that would be the show, also if they said "water" water would be dumped on you.

I think that was one of Nick's 1st shows (other than Pinwheel).

It was produced out of Canada, first started in 1979, and Nick picked it up in 1984.
