Default Any Other Born Again Teeny-Boppers?

I read once that Capricorns age backwards (so look forward to my ever increasing immaturity, Marissa ), so I have an excuse for this.
I'm watching Smallville these days and enjoying it. Yup, a WB show, one that my students are addicted to.
So what are you too old to be doing, but you're enjoying it anyway these days? (Are you hitting the Atlanta pools in your Speedos, Jason? )

Remember, the coolest of all women once said "I have a really teen-aged personality."

I'm not supposed to enjoy watching Arthur on PBS, but I do anyways.

Besides for that, I think I'm too old. It's reflected in the music I like and the fact that I just bought "What's Happening??" on DVD speaks for itself. I can't wait for Fat Albert.

Fabulous...thanks for the warning, sweetie.

Well, evidently i'm the one that's 34 and you're the one that's nearly 21...lol

Honestly, most of my habits make me seem like i'm old. Seriously. Yes, I do still enjoy the drama of Real World and Road Rules on television (because who DOESN'T like drunken debauchery?) and I will admit to having stuffed animals in my bed (DW from Arthur is one of them). I do like to go out but i've never been a party girl and going clubbing is NOT my thing. I'd much rather sit home than be in some small enclosed space with some sweaty gold- necklace-tight-black-shirt-clad losers while dancing to crappy teen music. Kplznthx.

I love Arthur todeath, it's incredibly entertaining. I've watched the Berenstain bears a few times and that's great, too. Zooboomafoom is unbearable, though.

Remember "Zoobilee Zoo'? I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE that show with a passion. It was the BEST.

I used to love The Berenstain Bears and just the other day I was flipping through the channels and saw they had their own show and nearly died.

Do I remember Zoobilee Zoo?? OMG YES! That was my show....that and Today's Special and The Elephant show. I used to want to be the Kangaroo because she liked to sing and dance and she had music notes on her outfit...oh, and she was pink..that's very important when you're like, 4.

Do you remember Mapletown??? I seem to be the only person that remembers that show...that was another one of my favorites.

I loved the cockatoo on Zoobilee Zoo and the mayor.

And do I remember Mapletown?!?!?! OMG, I used to be so excited for it! I'd rush home after school so that I could catch it on Nickelodeon. Gawd, they had good stuff on Nick back then. They played it right before Inspector Gadget!

Do you remember the Adventures of Little Koala? Another fave. The 80s were good. I used to stay up late with my grandmother and watch Miami Vice, too.

I still own all my Mapletown toys. And I sing the Elephant Show song to my dog.

Anyone here watch Nickelodeon GAS? If you don't, you should They show nothing but old Double Dare, Nick Arcade, Make the Grade, Finders Keepers and Legends of the Hidden Temple.

We are total nerds, doll.

Under the Umbrella Tree was my favorite show on Disney! I used to tape them all. I also loved "Dumbo's Circus", too. Remember that one? And I loved the fairy tales show where Olivia Newton-John told the stories. The old days were so good.

I? Own Ghostwriter books. I loved that show to death.

Remember the "Littlest Gnome"? "Eureeka's Castle"? "Grimms Fairy Tales"? "The Adventures of Tin Tin"? I'm feeling so nostalgic.

Legends of the Hidden Temple was the greatest. I always wanted to be on Double Dare so I could do the obstacle course at the end.

What was the name of that show that Mike O'Malley used to host on Nick? It was a physical challenge-type show, but I can't remember the name.

And does anyone remember SNICK? Every Saturday of my childhood was spent watching that line-up! Clarissa, Are You Afraid of the Dark, Roundhouse, Ren and Stimpy...

I didn't like cartoons as a kid but now can't get enough of Looney Tunes. How can you not love Bugs, Daffy, Foghorn & the crew? Although, I must admit, I've never had any particular fondness for either Tweety or Roadrunner.

I also got a huge kick out of seeing the revial of HR Puff-N-Stuff. That was a blast from my childhood! Anyone remember the Bugaloos?

I loved every Kroft show; they all rocked. Pretty good reason to take an acid trip, IMO.

I must admit, I have a soft spot for Land of the Lost.

See, now I always wanted to be on Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?

The show you're thinking of is GUTS...with the kids from all over the world competing with each other and at the end they had to climb the huge rock thing.

They used to call me Marissa Explains It All in school
