Wow, blast from the past!
Sorry about that, guys. I didn't realize that I had never posted the link to the article. Here you go: Top 20 Kid Shows from the 80’s & 90’s This was a tough list to compile, and will certainly not satisfy everyone, but hopefully it's an enjoyable read. |
Re: Your Top Ten Childhood Shows?
Nice list :up:
A lot of my favorites are on there but I am surprised that All That made it to #1. I liked the show but I thought there were a few better shows around that time. Thats IMO of course as I probably would have put Salute Your Shorts and Pete & Pete up higher and Are You Afraid of the Dark? would have been #1. |

Re: Your Top Ten Childhood Shows?
Well-written article and a fairly good order. I'd say that while All That wasn't my favorite show I think it was pretty accessible to most kids without being too terrible and I appreciated the variety-show-for-kids format. Since you asked about Nickelodeon shows and a vast majority of the shows on the list are from Nickelodeon, those that are different (TMNT, MMPR, Fraggle Rock) feel a little out of place. Still, nicely done.

Re: Your Top Ten Childhood Shows?
My favorite shows growing up that were actually aimed at kids?
- Kids Inc - Growing Pains - You Can't Do That on Television - Don't Just Sit There - Pee Wee's Playhouse - Kidd Video - Adventures of Pete and Pete - Eerie Indiana Shows I watched as a kid (pre-teen) that were probably not appropriate for kids but that I loved - Young Ones - SNL - SCTV - Night Flight - 20/20 - Friday the 13th The Series |

Slightly off topic from the regular TV show threads, but...
I'm working on an article for an online publication that counts down the top 20 childhood shows. These will mostly be from the late 80's to the mid 90's, so it would help if you were born in the late 70's or early to mid 80's. But I'd love to know what people's top ten (or even 20) childhood shows were so I can get a gauge of what people liked, and what shows seem to repeat on everyone's lists. Thanks. **NOTE***: I'm looking for more shows that were geared towards children specifically. Meaning, I'm not so much looking for "The Cosby Show" as I am, say, a Nickelodeon show such as "Are You Afraid of the Dark" or "Smurfs." Double Dare You can't do that on Television! Star Blazers Gummi Bears Darkwing Duck Uncle scrooge and the nephews? (I forgot what this was called) Hey, Dude! Ren and Stimpy Smurfs Alf Spidey and Friends |

Thanks for the link, you did a commendable job. It's a tad heavy on the Nickelodeon shows though.

My top 5 Nick shows from when I was in the target demo would be: Salute Your Shorts Doug Are you Afraid of the Dark Rocko's Modern Life Pete and Pete They weren't great shows, but I did enjoy most of the Nick gameshows too. |
