Pete and Pete

Does anyone remember this show on Nickelodeon. I just loved it when I was kid. Remeber Artie the strongest man in the world. GOd I wish I could find it again.

petunia

I think that was the thing that made me wanna get a tattoo when I was a kid

That was such a great show, they always had cooler shit to do than I did.

ahh, Ginsberg for kids. I adore that show. I always will.
everyone go and buy this album right now (yes, its actually still printed):
Music From The Adventures of Pete & Pete by the band Polaris.
And no, no one knows what the 3rd line of the theme song is. no one ever will....

I really loved that show. That and Salute your Shorts.

salute your shorts was great.

Donkeylips

Zeke the plumber!

Strongest man in the fucking world.

MAN GOD BLESS ARTIE WHERE EVER YOU MAY BE

Hell yeah. If I remember correctly Nickelodeon plays reruns of Pete and Pete every summer. I recently saw Salute your Shorts (Camp Anawana we hold you in our hearts...) somewhere and I don't remember where

remember when Michael Stipe from REM played Captain Scrummy? HAHA!

Was Pete and Pete the show with Iggy Pop?

god i miss that show. Actually i miss all of the Nick shows from my childhood. If they put out a DVD box set of the complete runs of Pete & Pete, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Clarissa Explains it All, Salute Your Shorts, Fifteen, and Eerie, Indiana (technically it started on ABC but thats just splitting hairs) I would seriously pay $200+ for it. God I miss kids shows that werent all about selling toys or a video game. Back when they assumed kids had half a brain and could process things like plot, dialogue, and charachter development. Alas they learned thier lesson and kids wont be getting anything like that any more

Eerie, Indiana I loved that show! Wow memories.

That was far too long ago.

He did make an appearance in one episode I saw playing some girls father. These kids went around destroying peoples pumpkins on Halloween. The kids got caught and were cleaning Iggy's porch. Iggy knelt down in front of one of them, said "You missed a spot...", spat on the porch and called the kid a "Stooge".

That show was one of the best ever!

I loved Pete and Pete. Remember when little Pete traveled back in time during daylight savings time by eating riboflavin? Or something...I can't quite remember how that goes.

Best TV show ever. Oh, and yeah, Iggy Pop was in a few episodes. So was Steve Buscemi.

It had something to do with the drive in movies with old pete also I think.

iggy pop played nona's father, he was in a bunch including one where he sang this really cheesy song for nona at her school dance. steve buscemi played ellen's father.

i'm the biggest pete & pete geek. i seriously think that show was BRILLIANT. the one where ellen is the dot on the i in the marching band is a work of art that rivals the mona lisa.

nickelodeon used to be a really awesome channel, they dumbed it down so much. i turned it on the other day and it was a bunch of gyrating 12-year olds in some music video.

did anyone else get nick magazine when it first came out? that was the shit.

I know little Pete, he's a friend of mine. He goes to the same college I went to. Real nice guy, although i've never seen the show.

i got kicked out of a club in hollywood once because i saw donkey lips in vip and got entirely too excited. i was shouting "dude, you are fucking donkey lips, do you have any idea how fucking cool that is" (over the velvet ropes which i had no chance of crossing). well apparently he did in fact know that he was donkey lips because i was promptly asked to leave but i left while screaming "ZOLTAN" and attempting to recreate the Hal Sparks worshipping arm signal. perhaps this explains why the pick up line i hear most often is "so your friend is hot, hook me up"
