"Down the Chute!" That's easy!TMBJon @ Mar 9 2007, 10:46 AM wrote: What was the name of the part of the Double Dare obstacle course that resembles a giant mouth?

Oh, and "What Would You Do?" was from the nineties, not the eighties, you young'un. The eighties Nickelodeon was all about "Double Dare" and "You Can't Do That On Television."

Late '80s, early '90s Nickelodeon was gold as far as programming goes. I was just telling my friend that the network has nothing worthwhile on it now, except possibly SpongeBob. Stuff like Double Dare, What Would You Do, All That, Hey Dude, Are You Afraid of the Dark? etc was great.TMBJon @ Mar 9 2007, 04:46 PM wrote: Jeremy, in all of the game shows especially "What Would You Do" there used to be moments in which members of the studio audience had to choose between getting pied and getting slimed (supposedly, all slime was made from that geyser that used to flow outside of the studios).
I once visited the Studios when I was, I dunno, 7 or 8. During the tour I was the only one who could answer this trivia question and therefore was given the chance to be slimed: What was the name of the part of the Double Dare obstacle course that resembles a giant mouth?

Once 1999 hit, the show, and network started to go downhill. I recently watched the network. Terrible. Kids today have a lot of terrible programming. I sound all old, and I'm only 23.Barney Slayer @ Mar 10 2007, 07:44 AM wrote: All That was great when it first started out. Then it gradually went downhill and now it's at rock bottom.

Don't feel bad... I'm only 19, and kids in general - not just the programming aimed at them - make me feel old. There seems to be nothing but troublesome brats in my neighbourhood, and their language alone shocks me because when I was their age, I got my ears boxed (figuratively speaking... mostly) for saying far less than they do! (Whiny little snots... hmm, maybe I should continue this little rant in the "When I Was Your Age" topic!HappyGilmore @ Mar 11 2007, 01:11 AM wrote: Once 1999 hit, the show, and network started to go downhill.

I heard of that, but haven't seen it. I did see two episodes of this show called The Naked Brothers Band. Some critic said it was like Spinal Tap for kids. Terrible terrible show. It seems like when I used to watch the network, even the bad shows then were better than the 'good' shows on there now. Bring back a show like Pete and Pete. THAT was entertainment.Barney Slayer @ Mar 10 2007, 05:14 PM wrote: I have a younger sister who watches Nickelodeon a lot, so I have to sit through most of their programing. They just put out a new show that I've seen, it's really stupid. It's about a kid in Mexico who's also a wrestler who fights crime, or something like that. I forget it's name.....

I don't even want to get started on the kids around here. We used to have good kids around. Not anymore. If I did half the stuff they did, I'd have been shipped off somewhere, probably.NerdyNyara27 @ Mar 10 2007, 05:20 PM wrote: Don't feel bad...
