Back when Nickelodeon first launched their throwback block of programming in 2011, The ’90s Are All That, I was ecstatic. The problem, however, is that it’s two hours long (which means only four shows can be in rotation at a time)…and it airs from midnight to 4 am. Now, I love my 90s Nicktoons just […]

Lost Signals: Bug Juice (1998)
Recently the Disney Channel in America premiered their new teen sitcom Bunk’d, a spin off of their hit show Jessie, set in a summer camp. This isn’t the first time Disney has invested in a show about summer camps, though. In 1998, they carved out their own version of Real World which focused on teenagers […]

“Think Anawanna-wanna, speak Anawanna-wanna, Live Anawanna-wanna! Ugh!” Salute Your Shorts is a relic of a time where Nickelodeon was just… “better.” Thankfully, the show has barely shown its age since it premiered almost 25 years ago. Sure, there’s the neon clothing and mullets are bound to make an appearance, but Salute Your Shorts still works […]

So Bad, It’s Good: POPCORN
The year 1991 wasn’t a great year for horror films, especially original horror films. In fact, it was absolutely dominated by abysmal sequels. 976-EVIL 2, Alligator 2, Child’s Play 3, Howling VI, Nekromantik 2, Freddy’s Dead, Omen IV, Puppet Master II (and III!), Silent Night, Deadly Night 5, Trancers II, and Sorority Babes in the Dance-A-Thon of […]

After the success of the Impel’s previous run of Marvel Universe cards, the mighty Marvel Comics made sure to follow it up with another great set for fanboys to battle over. You can learn more about the history of these sets over on the Multiversity Comics, but in the meantime let’s take a gander at […]

In the mid-90s, the Cartoon Network experienced something of “new genesis” in terms of programming. Rather than airing classic MGM, Hanna-Barbera and Looney Tunes shows, the network instead began investing in original animated programming. Originally known as Cartoon Cartoons, the experiment was a success and allowed the network to usher in a line-up of quality […]

It’s pretty weird that in the annals of 90s television, New York Undercover is rarely talked about. Aside from being a great series, this American police drama marks one of my favorite childhood memories. While coming home from a doctor’s appointment, my dad and I stumbled upon the series being filmed.* The series’ two main […]
