    I didn’t even know Nickelodeon was around in '92. I always thought of them as being very much a '00s channel, maybe founded in the mid-to-late '90s.

    Amazing that they were not only around, but old enough to feel it made sense to do a time capsule then.

      Ah, the youth of today…

      I was watching Nickelodeon in the 1980s. Pinwheel, You Can’t Do That on Television, Turkey TV, Out of Control, Mad Movies… Nickelodeon was great back then. The concept of green slime, which Nickelodeon has claimed ownership of, came from You Can’t Do That on Television, which was a Canadian show. Alanis Morrisette was on it as a child.

        Turkey TV was the shit. And Mad Movies… No wonder I became such an MST3K fan.

            I bet there are a lot of MST fans on lemmy. Seems like a similar demographic.

              Could be. I’m on the official forums too. It’s very laid back, basically troll-free and everyone is friendly. Even if I didn’t like MST, I’d love those forums. Where else am I going to spend hours posting AI generated pictures of Godzilla doing ridiculous things?
