TeenNick goes retro with '90s programming

If you’re a twentysomething who’s been jonesing for repeats of All That and Clarissa Explains it All, then this news is for you: EW has learned exclusively that starting this fall, TeenNick will dust off old faves like Rugrats, Kenan & Kel, Pete & Pete, The Amanda Show, All That and Clarissa and air them in a new midnight-to-2 a.m. programming block dubbed (appropriately enough) The ’90s Are All That. The tween cabler came up with the idea after seeing the huge interest in early Nickelodeon programming on social media sites. There are several Facebook pages — followed by millions of fans — that are devoted to Nickelodeon shows from the ’90s.

“At the time, we were completely devoted to that audience ages 9, 10, and 11,” Keith Dawkins, senior VP and general manager of TeenNick, tells EW. “It was ground-breaking and for the young viewers, a powerful and pivotal time in their lives. Those kids who are now 22, 23 and 24 want to bring that back.”

Over time, TeenNick hopes to use the retro block to showcase other ’90s programming and movies. So if you didn’t get a chance to see Good Burger then…

Hell yeah, I finally get to watch Clarissa Explains it All once again.

Now, if only they add Salute your Shorts and Hey Dude to the block.

Hell.

Yes.

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is pretty awesome, I'm always singing the tune for Clarissa Explains it all!

YEA! I would love to see those shows again! Also Rocko's Modern Life should be put back on as well!I mean Ren and Stimpy is.So why not that show as well?

lol I've seen Rocko's Modern Life come on that NickToon package. I'm 22 years old watching cartoons I watched as a kid

I hope they bring back 'Are You Afraid Of The Dark?'.

I cant wait to see 'all that' with Alisa Reyes fine self

SCOOOOOOOOOOORE

I think it's going to be pretty funny when you guys see these shows that you used to watch to fervently as a kid only to realize that they're shit.

Actually it's very possible I believe.

Clarissa Explains It All is only one of those that I watched but that was one epic show!

As for '90s kids/youth series though; Are You Afraid Of The Dark, The Odyssey, Mirror Mirror, Ocean Girl, The Girl From Tomorrow and Halfway Across The Galaxy And Turn Left were the best ones in my opinion.

Where's the Tomorrow People?

In fact, I don't even know what that is.

I wasn't a Clarissa Explains it All fan when I was watching Nick back then. I recently watch a few episodes and it was pretty good. Same with Salute Your Shorts. And Pete and Pete is an all time classic.

I forgot all about Pete and Pete.
