Naughty Teens, Naughty Cable & Naughty Chimps - TV Obscura Vol 1 - July 29th, 1999
July 29th, 1999! Welcome to the first of (maybe) a new series where I pick a random date, pull up the TV listings for that date, and find three shows that failed and forgotten. Today we look at The Teen Files, Love Street and The Chimp Channel! Let me know what you think!

Rated K: For Kids By Kids: "Siskel & Ebert" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
We take a look back at Rated K, Nickelodeon's film review show starring real kids. And in this episode, those real kids are going head-to-head with Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert, two of the most famous film critics of all time. Kind of like sending a toddler out to fight Mike Tyson.

The Fairly OddParents: "Foul Balled/The Boy Who Would Be Queen" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
Hey, it's that episode of The Fairly Oddparents that cracked all those eggs! We take look at a cartoon about gender that feels more important today than it did twenty-two years ago.

Noozles: "How It All Began" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
We take a step back into early Nick Jr, with the final episode of Noozles, a clip show finale. It sure... it sure is a clip show...

Rocko's Modern Life: "Wacky Delly" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
We've seen Ren & Stimpy do a meta episode about making cartoons, now let's see what Rocko's Modern Life does with the idea. We take a look at one of the show's best episodes, and what might have motivated it.

Thoughts on "Quiet on Set"
I imagine, being one of Youtube’s “Nickelodeon Content Creators”, you want to know what I thought.QUIET ON SET, the new four-part documentary detailing inappropriate behavior and abuse on the set of Dan Schneider’s various Nickelodeon shows, starts off on its worst foot, with all the earmark...
Martin Mystery: "The Return of the Beasts" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
It only aired on Nickelodeon for a few months, but that counts for our purposes! We take a look at an episode of Martin Mystery! We learn the origins of Martin and Diana's caveman boyfriend, Java! Plus, slime dinosaurs, frog chasing and convoluted mad scientist plots!
Clarissa Explains It All - Nick Knacks Episode #100
Whoo! Episode #100! Today we talk about Nickelodeon's first true mutli-camera sitcom, Clarissa Explains It All, a popular 90s hit that introduced the world to Melissa Joan Hart. We talk about the show's origins with Mitchell Kriegman's artistic early days, the show's grueling filming...

NFL on Nickelodeon: "Chicago Bears Vs. New Orleans Saints" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
For many years, Nickelodeon just didn't know how to incorporate sports into the channel. Then, someone had the brilliant idea: why not just air a football game? We take a look at Nick's first attempt at broadcasting the NFL ahead of their airing of the Superbowl this Sunday.

The Adventures of Pete and Pete: "Yellow Fever" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
Big Pete, Ellen and their class are going on a field trip to a milk museum! What follows is a tale of secret love, temptation, betrayal, and a death-defying finale! Man, this show has everything!
The Ren & Stimpy Show: "Stimpy's Cartoon Show" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
John K was out, but his backlog of ideas remained. We look at the most meta Ren & Stimpy cartoon, but perhaps its purpose became a little lost in a post-Spumco show.

Hey Arnold: "Helga on the Couch" - Nick Knacks Sample Platter
We return to Hey Arnold, with perhaps the definitive Helga episode. It's the kind of cartoon that gets you talking about mental health, Robin Williams movies and Edward Hopper paintings.

Animorphs Graphix #4 - The Message - Opinionated Animorphs Book Guide
We return to the world of Animorphs graphic novels. This is the one where everyone morphs into dolphins and they find Ax! That's fun, I guess, but I'm starting to think this project is running out of steam...

F Troop - Nick Knacks Episode #099
I'm not gonna lie to you, I have no idea why Nickelodeon aired this. It's F Troop! The 60s sitcom about a Union army fort on the edge of the frontier, with a lot of dated jokes and a LOT of white actors in redface. So much redface, you guys.
