Last week, I found myself thinking of old-school Nickelodeon and its awesome TV shows. I searched "Hey, Arnold!" on DirecTV, and--what do you know--I got results! I remember trying before and coming up empty. Anyway, I was really excited; I've been watching everyone's favorite football head, along with everyone's favorite (human) babies (Rugrats, not Muppet Babies).
It gets even better. Stick Stickly is returning. YES. You read that correctly. I busted out my awesome Stick Stickly T-shirt (it's really more like a nightgown) and took a couple pictures.
I am one stylin' '90s kid.
Back in the day, my cousins and I wrote letters to Stick Stickly (and Alissa and I still remember his address. Allie might, too).
Stick Stickly PO Box 963
New York City, NY State
10108
+10 cool points if you remember it, too.
Allie, Alissa, and I painstakingly penciled letters to our beloved icon and intended to seal Edison pins in the envelopes with our love notes. (My uncle works for the company.) Ah, good times. I don't know if we ever actually stamped and mailed them, though.
So! Back to Hey, Arnold! The information for one of tonight's episodes made a grave error. Try to spot it:
MIRIAM does not spend time with her father. HELGA does. Any '90s chick worth her salt would know this!
(Note to Alissa: Remember Brainy AKA Cantino and how he teamed up with Mr. Lee in our cracked out, awesomely weird stories?? Shake it, fast~!)
What are some of your favorite childhood memories?
I wrote to stick stickly soooo many times!
ReplyDeleteHehe, awesome! Those were fun times. I hope if/ when I have kids to introduce them to some of these shows; they seem to trump a lot of today's, but that could be my nostalgia talking. :)
DeleteNo, I really don't think its your nostalgia talking lol. When I have kids i'll do the same! They wont know about the current shows in their time just the ones I've grown up with lol. :)
DeleteInterestingly enough- Shake it fast came on the radio and all I could think about was Brainy :D
ReplyDeleteHahaha. :D :D
