Yeah, I remember that show. My sister and brother used to watch it all the time. Jeff was the mannequin and there was a mouse named Muffy, a night watchman, and a lady who worked in the store.

LOL!!! THAT'S THE ONE!!!!!! Oh, man that takes me back...

Hey Dude! Classic Nick show! I also watched Salute Your Shorts, Wild and Crazy Kids, Double Dare, and Are You Afraid of the Dark (which scared the shit out of me!)

HA!! I watched ALL of those shows!! I soooo wanted to be on Double Dare (psst! I had a wee crush on Mark Somers

)

Did anyone else watch reruns of Soap when they were little? Not your standard kiddie fair but I was, well, not your standard kid. Billy Crystal as Jodie cracked my ass up.

One day I was home sick and had this crazy fever and I was watching "Mr Rogers" and I was like 15 and it was the FUNNIEST SHOW. I couldn't stop laughing at him sing about how you can't go down the bathtub drain. Then he fixed the toilet! It was GREAT! OK

Hee hee! I've been trying to think of the name of that show for days! I definitely remember watching it, but all I can really recall about it was the opening sequence with the door. You know, the one with the polka dots on it...

On a completely unrelated note, did anyone else ever watch American Gladiators? I'd LOVE to see some reruns of that.

 

[senrab]

Yes! I remember Gladiators....didn't they all have nicknames like "Storm" or something like that?
