The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo is the first one you spoke of. It featured the second girl who got kicked off All That and was also on Steve Harvey at the time.

MTV had a healthy equilibrium of videos, shows and specials in the early '90s, but all that started changing once Real World took off in '92 (becoming its highest rated series ever). That's when they AGGRESSIVELY sought to change the format of the channel.

MTV was cool around the days of "Remote Control," "Half Hour Comedy Hour (with Mario Joyner)" and "Club MTV (with wubba-wubba-wubba Downtown Julie Brown)." Playing all them d*mn acid house tunes. LOL.

Yeah, yeah. Liquid Television used to be the jump-off. Brothers Grimm (ewww), those black-and-white cartoons with nasty and vile stuff. MTV was really cool back then.

I remember Goo Punch now. One of the supporting characters on My Brother and Me was named Goo and he had a crush on the brothers' older sister. He daydreamed about coming up with a product called Goo Punch and made a pretty funny commercial about it in which the older sister hugged him I think.

Pinwheel was my show!!! I also LOVED The Adventures of the Little Koala, You Can't Do That On Television, Wild And Crazy Kids(the Original with Omar Gooding, Annette Chavez and Donny Jeafcoat),Hey Dude,Today's Special, Danger Mouse and Double Dare. Nickelodeon was soooo damn good back in the day. I remember when it went off at 8p.m....ahh those were the days indeed..

Christine Taylor has come a VERY long way sinceHey Dude..Her Melody character was an afterthought on that show, but she was always cuter than the other girl.

Viacom has killed some once great channels...It's saddening to see what has happend to all of the Networks I loved as a child.

How can we forget about this classic?:

NWF said:

that thing is a bit too phallic for a kids show..

NWF said:

I definitely remember the name of that show, but I forgot its premise.

doctamario said:

yesss!

OMG. We forgot BANANAMAN*!!!

JANFAN4L said:

It makes fun of suburbs and how weird those people are.
2 brothers both named Pete. One's older than the other. They have the same friends and go to the same school. Ellen is the older Pete's gfriend. Artie is the local superhero. The mother has a plate in her head. Everybody's a freak. Michelle Trachtenberg and Danny something got their start here.

when were Bananaman, Turkey TV, and Danger Mouse on(what years approximately) because I don't remember them.

There was also that baby muppets show.

doctamario said:

Bananaman started on Nick in 1983 and followed Danger Mouse throughout the '80s. The show consisted of 5 minute animated segments (kind of like School House Rock on ABC -- very short animated clips dotted throughout shows). Danger Mouse aired on Nick 1984-87 and again from 1991-94. Turkey TV (like You Can't Do That on TV) was a Canadian sketch comedy for youth, Nick ordered it after the populatiry of YCDToTV. It aired on Nick and Nick @ Nite from 1987-1993.

There was also that baby muppets show.[/quote]

Yeah, I remember the Muppet Babbies and Dennis The Menace.

ulysses 31.

"Ulyseeeeeses, no one else can do the things u do"

Stunning theme song. They showed this on fox kids a year back to fill up time. but now kids love it, and dvd's have even been released.

Definately one of the darkest kids shows.

Sk8 TV was that skateboarding show with Matthew Lillard I was wondering about. Yeah, Welcome Freshman went off the air really early and I hardly remember it, but it was good. I don't remember Don't Just Sit There. Roundhouse was one of the original Snick shows.
