Salute Your Shorts

Yes, Bad4Good. About ten years ago I was visiting my aunt in Chicago and she took us to the Hard Rock Cafe for lunch. The place was decorated with Bad4Good flyers because they were going to play there that night. About twenty minutes after we sat down, a big table near us filled up with lots of rock 'n roll adults and two kids: Danny (Cooke? Cooksey?), whom I recognized from the later years of "Diff'rnt Strokes," and his girlfriend. We I got home a few days later I told all of my friends that I'd seen the redheaded kid from TV. Only about 3 years ago did I learn that he was in B4G.

thats great.
i can live without hey dude... salute your shorts... danger mouse and the like...

but TailSpin was the ultimate cartoon of all time.

TailSpin makes the world go round.

crrrrrrrrumbs!

I could possibly die a happy man with DVD copies of 'Salute Your Shorts' and 'Pete and Pete'.

Clarissa Explains It All ended when Hart got pregnant, apparently not a good role model for young girls at that time. I saw Pete and Pete on Sat.TV there was some NICK channel it was on.

I remember the Marc Summers Halloween special with Lance Burton back in the day. That was awesome. Then he invented National Talk Like A Pirate Day!

ok, i hope i don't get flamed for this.... who remembers the big orange couch.... roundhouse, some campy horror show and others?

roundhouse rocked!

I went to high school with the little guy 'Sponge' I think his name was Tim. He got a lot of shit for being on that show... and he was nothing like his character.

what about ...

This thread make me feel old. I have no idea what you all are talking about.

Where's the "You Can't Do That On Television" thread?

ycdtot was on at the same time as most of the shows mentioned. i just dug up an old nickelodeon schedule. =]

My hands are starting to shake w/ nostalgia. We had no idea what good times we were living in.

The fact I can bearly remember anything concrete from any of the episodes besides what some of the girls looked like and the intro and the cafeteria guy hasen't kept this mention of it from sending major nostalgia shivers up my spine.

Very funny.

I'm talking about the old skool ycdtotv that started in 79'. I'm talking about Moose! That's all I remember from nick as a kid. Alright, I'll spot you Clarissa, but I only know this one cause I dated a sophomore when I was a senior.

i could want michael stipe as an ice cream salesman... or syd straw as a schoolteacher, or chris elliot as a psychic meterman, or janeane garafolo as a teacher, or frank gifford as himself, or juliana hatfield as a lunch lady, or david johansen as a cop or forest ranger or something like that, or adam west as the principle of a junior high...

and with pete & pete i get it all... i have three tapes full of pete and pete episodes and now i can't find them. i'm gonna panic. if they ever got released on dvd, i would buy the whole set.

i know..those were all repeats that us youngins were watching.

i had a crush on budnick too, but i secretly wanted donkey lips. how wrong is that?

anyway, anyone remember that show with the manequin guy and the mouse on a skateboard?

good lord, i totally forgot Dina. She was one of my first girl crushes
