That Pauly Shore bit at the end. I'm dead.

Krypton 雷の神 "No its not Pauly Shore, this person has talent" lmfao

[@willjenkins4195]

Now the question is what’s funnier saying Pauldy shore doesn’t or brenden Fraser does?

[@dabooda7]

I was a strange kid, for I always felt sorry for the people who had to clean that shit up.

[@obsidianwolf3756]

that's not called strange, that's called logical and reasonable.

[@literallyglados]

woah i never thought about it

[@DumbWolfPerson]

They practically said no to cleaning the place, it smelled like death.

[@boisegameshowguy]

When they filmed in Philadelphia, they HATED the cleaning! Florida was a godsend to Nickelodeon, they could just wheel stuff outside and rinse it off. Warm climates may turn some people into jerks but they are perfect for Hollywood caliber entertainment like this show

[@melissacooper4282]

As a kid I never thought anyrhing of it.

[@bigsleep7242]

"God dammit, we need that money for grandma's operation!" Cracks me up every time!

[@allasar]

It cracks you up because in the US the amount of medical treatment you get is dependent on how much money you have, instead of being a basic human right? Man, you are dark.

[@jimmyzeke13]

"Get back in your taco" makes me laugh every time.

[@thegamemaster5500]

There was a lost episode where a kid broke one of his bones

[@corneliussnow8215]

Yeah. I heard. Something about his family lieing on the form and the kid having a condition that made him bones more fragile or something.

[@maddalonefarms]

Did they get sued

[@corneliussnow8215]

Maddalonefarms I believe they did and they got an undisclosed amount of money in return.........Even though it wasn't the shows fault why it happened.

[@juant8631]

Cornelius Snow Actually, they weren't. To compensate, they gave the kid the seventh obstacle's prize.

[@DiegoRuiz1991]

thegamemaster5500 This shows should have a contract clause where it's like "unless something really freaky happens with our props, fuck you"

[@joeywomer]

Mark Summers had to be God to be able to host a show like this with OCD.

[@quentinparhiala9415]

Your right about that

[@garrettbays6942]

Don't forget, he even hosted the not as crazy, but still sometimes messy and enjoyable, "What Would You Do?"

I remember watching this, Guts, and Legends of the Hidden Temple all the time back when Nick Gas was a thing.

[@rovospire]

Blue Monkey represent

[@Thoralmir]

Also Wild n' Krazy Kids and Nick Arcade. Also, remember how Space Camp was the grand prize of a lot of these shows?

[@garrettbays6942]

Does anyone remember Make the Grade? I don't think it lasted long, but I remember really enjoying it.

[@garrettbays6942]

@Thoralmir Oh yeah, I do remember that. There was a time when that grand prize didn't seem like much to me, but as I got older, and became more interested in the mechanics of space travel, that seemed like an interesting place to see.

[@garrettbays6942]

@@Thoralmir I never got into Wild 'N Crazy Kids as much, but I did love it when they did the go-kart races.

They still have little recreations of this at the Nickelodeon hotel in Orlando.

I'm surprised that Nick doesn't still show gameshows anymore. From what I hear, they are cheaper to make than other shows.

[@panth753]

True.

[@DigiRangerScott]

Their most recent game show, Webheads, didn't do well ratings wise. They brought back Figure It Out from 2012-2013, hosted by network mainstay Jeff Sutphen (he's the Clark Kent to Pick Boy's Superman)

[@femmefuntime]

panth753 they tried to reboot Figure It Out but it flopped

[@DigiRangerScott]

morgan megurine Actually Figure It Out's first return season was a success. It was the second season that was mishandled

[@femmefuntime]

without that one person (lauribeth i think was her name) it was dumb. summer sanders was the superior host and that dj guy from the first one was cool too. also the answer board in the new one looked dumb

[@kaitlynavila9280]

Can you do Legend of the Hidden Temple and Guts next

[@SoujiMonaru]

Kyle Campbell I believe Rob may still read these comments. He said something along those lines during one of the "Real Thoughts" videos. Could be from here, or on their site, but still...

[@DigiRangerScott]

Actually this is from 8 years ago. His KZbin days

[@jeehoondevil]

Kaitlyn Avila Oh man those shows were my childhood. What's even funnier is I was born by the time those shows were actually over, but thanks to rebroadcasts I was able to grow up watching them early 2000s.

[@kaitlynavila9280]

Jeehoondevil Same! My mom and dad got me into these shows a lot

[@mikeburnsy6492]

+Souji Monaru He should review 90s DCOMs

[@puppymolly123]

In Canada we kind of had our own version of this called Uh-Oh!.

[@lewjones3]

I remember on What Would You Do, Mark Sommers used to get pissed and send people to the "Pie Pod" 😂

[@yves0010]

Back when the Nickelodeon Studios were open at Universal. I actually got to do this on the tour. It was a hell of a lot of fun.

[@GamingSuccub]

God I loved this show as a kid. I always loved when a challenge or the obstacle course was won. I wanted my family to get on the show so much but it never happened. It makes me sad that shows like Double Dare, GUTS or Legends of the Hidden Temple are never on anymore. :( RIP Nickelodeon. 1988-2008.

[@PeterTrinkilo]

As someone who also has OCD, I now have a fuck ton of respect for Marc Summers after watching this. He really does deserve a medal (and like, a million dollars)

[@foxjeffworthy4368]

His double dare lyrics are gold.

[@MidnightSonnet]

God this show was so awesome. Nick was so amazing in the 90s. Massive creative teams making great shows. Miss it a lot.

[@Broadwaychica]

Not gonna lie, I felt like saluting when you told the story about Summers having OCD. Just...wow. That's genuinely impressive and weirdly inspiring.

[@yvonnewilson2242]

You know what's really shitty? Mark Summers was supposed to host the revival of Hollywood Squares, but his going public with his OCD battle cost him a job as host of a Hollywood Squares revival.He was replaced by Tom Bergeron. I would've sued but I'm not sure if OCD was looked at as a condition that would've warranted a lawsuit as a disability. Either way, such bullshit. The very fact Mark Summers persevered despite his condition proves he had stellar work ethic. What a shame. BUT THEN AGAIN...HOWIE MANDEL has severe mysophobia (which he takes meds for now), and we all know about his breakdowns on America's Got Talent attributed to his condition...AND he hosted Deal Or No Deal, so Summers might have a case to sue Nickelodeon on grounds of prejudice against his condition...maybe...

[@Broadwaychica]

...well damn, that IS shitty. What a bunch of assholes...*shakes head* Poor Mark. I wish he DID sue, but I suppose that's easy to say from the outside.

[@roblena7977]

Half the time was apple sauce with food coloring.

[@RedShirtWinners]

I also remember he did "What Would You Do?" I loved that show. The best part was the wall o' stuff.

[@dropUrPeaches]

"No. It's not Pauly Shore. This person has talent." XD Well, I do love me some Brendan Fraser.

[@LCHime]

Thank you guys for uploading these classic episodes.

[@iHeartsNostalgiaPit]

we had a similar show like this in Canada called Uh Oh except there wasn't any parental participation well except for a couple of Slime Tour Segments late in it's run. I actually appeared in a Slime Tour segment as a spectator, and felt the brunt end of a whoopi cushion full of food colouring. Needless to say I had an awesome story to tell my classmates when I got to school later that day

[@strifenineteen]

iHeartRyanStiles I remember that show, think one of the cast (the blonde guy with glasses) went on to Big wolf on campus as the goth best friend (I want to say his name was Marty)

[@hung9839]

I have OCD, and you can deal or even enjoy things that go against your order as long as you know you can easily fix it afterwards.

[@arturaraujo73]

What an amazing Captain Jack's impression.

[@femmefuntime]

Artur Araújo pirates or doctor who?

[@arturaraujo73]

morgan megurine Though I prefer the galactic homossexual captain, I have to admit that I was referencing the pirate.

[@MarStoryTime]

Thanks for allowing me to rediscover my childhood. Now I'm going to make some popcorn and watch the series finale of Gargoyles that I never saw.

[@ChariMahariel]

OCD isn't always about cleaniness or symmetry tho

I honestly never got to see the show when it aired on TV, but I remember watching the VHS tape that you used for the majority of the physical challenge clips over and over again. Kings Island had something similar to this when the park was owned by Paramount in the kids' area for one season. God I miss those days.

[@phanpyken986]

I remember in the 2000 version the first few episodes the blue plate special(pb & j) was either third or second to last. If it was the Blt instead of the pb&j it was easy but on a few shows the blue plate special was 1st

We had our own version of this in the UK, lasted a few years.only difference was the teams were just two people on each team, no families. I think double dare inspired Fun House a few years later.

Him being in a messy environment when he had OCD probably helped him a little a huge part of the treatment for OCD is aversion therapy like putting dirt on your hands or in some cases having a mud bath

You have to imagine that for insurance medical purposes that Nickelodeon slime is edible and body safe... in fact it is, it's a mix of apple sauce and vanilla pudding with green food coloring according to a later interview with mark summers the host

[@Anastas1786]

"I don't know if they waxed the floors with banana peels or what, but people were falling and breaking bones like _crazy!_ This place is like a _lawsuit factory!"_ Fun fact: You know those studies that say people injure themselves in their bathrooms than in any other room in their homes?
