had a weird thing as a tween where i hated kids shows with people in them. only really liked cartoons. i just found kid actors and sets of homes and schools really fucked up and condescending, idk.
now i'm kind of animation-averse. but i guess my attitude toward that kind of show is the same, now that i think of it.

We didn't even get UHF as far out in the woods we were. One kid in junior high had the big satellite dish taking up his entire front yard and would come in talking about the cartoon with the spikey-haired boy that the Little Rock Fox affiliate played on Ch. 38.
Only Nickelodeon programming I ever watched was Pinwheel at my grandmother's house in Memphis. (She'd tune it over to that so I would calm down after discovering that there was a Channel 5, what the hell is a Channel 5?)

Channel 2 was PBS.Channel 3 was for the Atari or VCR.
Any other way and you lived in Soviet Russia, for all I knew.

i have fond memories of watching nickelodeon (a lot) as a kid but i suspect most of that nostalgia would be ruined by actually rewatching most of those shows, except some of the animated stuff.

yes, i hated that shit. same goes for disney channel shit that i sometimes saw at friends houses. just seemed so distant from what i experienced as a kid that i had a hard time understanding why kids liked those shows

it's incredible how this guy wrote a fucking book about the history of nickelodeon and from the start 100% of everything he says is wrong. all of it. millions of age 25-35s who had cable grew up on nickelodeon, and this guy, who considers himself some sort of expert, knows less than everyone else. these shows were all popular! 4 seasons for a kids show is huge! dan schneider, literally the biggest behind-the-camera figure in nick's history, makes sure his shows (with some exceptions) don't exceed 60-65 episodes. and the nostalgia thing lol. me and my brother and sister and everyone i went to school with were waxing nostalgic about it as soon as we were old enough to be too old for it. we'd have the same exact conversations over and over again.
dude is literally just a pete and pete/ren and stimpy megafan who decided to write a book about it
also he's racist

Book DescriptionPublication Date: August 17, 2013From Mathew Klickstein comes a new classic of erotic horror: Oliver Maxwell is demented, depraved, and disturbed. He's also one of the most caring young men you could ever hope to meet. In his own words, he both loves and hates women with equal intensity, confessing, "Some I hate so much, I have to see them naked." If you think Oliver Maxwell is complicated, just wait until you read about his sex life...When this conflicted milquetoast discovers a stranger sprawled out and unconscious in an alleyway one night, he decides to take her home with him to "nurture her back to health and consciousness."Oliver soon realizes that in order to take care of his mysteriously cataleptic housemate - the sudsy bubble baths, the muscle massages, the incessant combing of her silken blonde hair - he will need to indulge in extracurricular sexual diversions to keep from inflicting himself on her tender, vulnerable body.There begins a litany of progressively perverted episodes for a man whose fantasies might be others' nightmares... and vice versa. For Oliver Maxwell (and the various paramours he comes upon during his nocturnal meanderings), experimentation is only the beginning. He craves the fear as much as the fantasy, and knows he's not the only one. Along the way, Oliver finds his lost angel in a coma might not be as innocent as he presupposed...Publisher's note: "Rag Doll," is a work of fantasy containing horror and erotic themes that some readers might find disturbing. All characters in Rag Doll are of adult (18+) age.

And if you LIKE what you read, also check out Mathew's other lesser-known books such as: Rag Doll (not for children but his best work to date), My Dog Forgot How to Read (talking eBook for children, no joke), Daisy Goes to the Moon (for children if your children are weird, but probably more for you), Back to Hollywood (if you can find it) and This Book is Called Counter (which you almost assuredly won't be able to find). Also look out for some of Mathew's short videos, stories and the like scattered about the Internet and library archives. Enjoy. America.
