pete and pete, solute your shorts, now there are some good shows. there is almost no good shows on nickelodion any more. the only good one i watch is invader zim. i try to catch ren and stempy too but it almost never comes on.

speaking of stuff that went away. what ever happen to surge? rember? it was supposed to be like a mellow yellow on steriods or something? it got all this hype then just kinda faded away.........

--"Salute Your Shorts". It featured Danny Cooksey, the voice of Montana Max on Tiny Toon Adventures. I guess he just got to old to play a teenage hellion--actually, he's about my age and married with a kid or two!
Some of you really old Methuselahs might, like I, recall Cooksey as a little feller on Diff'rent Strokes, in the later seasons he played Sam, Arnold's stepbrother. He came on the show about the same time Dana Plato got knocked up and the producers forced her off. She went on to do skin flicks, and--just as she was getting her shattered life back on track--died of a drug overdose the day after she appeared on Howard Stern's show. Some conspiracy nuts think ol' Eagle Beak drove her to it.
But to get back to the topic--yes, I am very disappointed in Nickelodeon. They're bringing in a lot of shows from the 80's, like Facts of Life and ALF to put on Nick at Nite. Nothing against the eighties--it was the age of Reagan and a period of great prosperity--but g.d. it, I'm not ready to consider shows I watched as a teenager classics yet! :eek:

Well, first I should keep myself from jumping the gun and say I remember the show VERY well (although I enjoyed Pete and Pete much more). But anyway I remember those episodes! That network has gone to junk alright. It's been years since I've watched anything on it.
