Today, I was thinking about the last 5 years, in terms of this whole "Classic NIckelodeon" movement, if you can call it that. It seems that around 2004/2005, as the internet was growing, message boards, websites, and petitions started popping up everywhere about bringing back the Nickelodeon of the 80's and 90's. When I first discovered this whole underground movement some 5 years ago, all we had to quench our thirst for Nick's past were old VHS tapes, if we could find them. Now, we're at the end of 2010, and although it may not seem like we've made any progress, I just thought I'd recap all the things we've gotten. Maybe signing all those internet petitions and writing all those letters to Nickelodeon actually paid off.
When it comes to DVDs, we now have the following:
Clarissa Explains it All: Season 1
The Adventures of Pete and Pete: Season 1

Plus, if you have Comcast Cable, you get "Nick Rewind" OnDemand for free. This includes 4 episodes of Doug, The Angry Beavers, and Hey Arnold!, and 8 episodes of Rugrats. Every couple of months, they put up a new batch of episodes, so that is the closest thing we have right now to a "Nick Rewind" channel.
So keep on writing those letters and sending those emails to Nickelodeon, because who knows, maybe they actually are listening.
