“I don’t know.”
I mean you can’t do that on television
wait wasn’t alannis morrisette from there?
She was!
Worth a watch, a five-part documentary television series called Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV (2024)
It details the toxic behind-the-scenes world of children’s television programs from the 1990s to the 2000s, with a special focus on Dan Schneider’s tenure as a producer and showrunner at Nickelodeon.
Most of the people who watch Nickelodeon don’t know where it came from either.
I have vivid memories of desperately trying to tell my dad that All That was just SNL but with kids, and it was hilarious. Now my five-year-old has found the All That reboot on YouTube, and I feel the pain that my father had felt.
And think how those of us who watched “You Can’t Do That on Television” felt hearing kids describe all that as SNL with kids when we knew it was just a rip off of YCDTOT
I’m not a kid and haven’t been for many decades. I’ve never watched nickolodeon. Can someone explain why slime is a thing?
One of Nickelodeon’s first staple show was a program from the early 1980’s called ‘You Can’t Do That On Television’. One of its recurring gags was when people got slimed whenever they said “I don’t know”.

It has remained a trademark of the network ever since.
Do kids still watch slime tutorials? I remember that being a thing for a bit.
What do ya thinks in the burgers!?!?!?
I often think about what happened to slime time live.
I’ve always dreamed of being in the game.
