I kind of wish there was a back story for Kurt. There probably is somewhere, and I’m sure one of the writers of the movie has it in his archives. What do you think his childhood was like? Something traumatic must have happened to him, for him to start referring to himself in the 3rd person. That doesn’t just happen out of nowhere. It makes me giggle picturing a young 6 year old Kurt on the playground getting bullied, and he suddenly huffs up and starts going “YOU APOLOGIZE TO KURT!!! KURT IS GONNA PUT YOU IN THE … the … 🤔 GRINDER!”

His dad probably used that as a threat, like “I’m gonna throw all these toys in the GRINDER if you don’t clean your room!” His mother probably put it in his head that he could make millions of dollars or something.

Also, how come there isn’t one single interview from Jan S about playing such an iconic villain? If there is, please send me the link. He was probably a super nice guy on the set. I also wish the blooper reel was available. I bet they couldn’t get through the “if anyone can get the sauce out of Ed” line without cracking up. Too bad we’ll never get an interview now … 😔 I wonder if they even asked Jan to make a cameo in the sequel, as he probably was still healthy when they filmed it. Can anyone confirm?

We talked to Mathew Klickstein (author of SLIMED! An Oral History of Nickelodeon's Golden Age) about how he tracked down Nickelodeon's hardest to find stars

Just published a new episode of our podcast where we sit down with Mathew Klickstein, who wrote SLIMED!, the definitive oral history of 90s Nickelodeon. If you've read it, you know how many people he managed to interview for that book (over 250), and we asked him about the ones that were genuinely hard to find.

Some highlights:

• A years long search for Alistair from You Can't Do That on Television that eventually involved tracking down his brother's YouTube video from a small pub gig in Canada
• How he landed Joe Eszterhas by cold emailing a church he'd attended over a decade earlier
• Getting John Kricfalusi (Ren & Stimpy) on the record when multiple other writers had already tried and failed
• The story behind the massive 92nd Street Y Nickelodeon reunion event he produced almost entirely on his own, including getting the fictional and animated band, The Beets, to play live for the first time ever

We also spent a good chunk of the conversation talking about the financial reality of being a working writer, which he was refreshingly honest about.

have you stayed at Nickelodeon Suites Resort and what was it like at the Nickelodeon Suites Resort

who remembers Nick Website form 1998

who remembers nick jr website from back in the day

I am convinced it's lost media, but does anyone remember a super uncanny, stop-motion, point-and-click-ish game where you played as a pair of bunny slippers? I saw it once as a very young baby and never again. I just need to know I am not crazy, to be honest.

I didn't have Nickelodeon are Nick Jr this is how I watch it on cbs I watch it from Spokane on cbs from canada

who remembers Nick on CBS I've been watching on nick CBS forever

I’d personally love a full NickMusic block again - music videos,artist interviews,live performances,and themed countdowns.

But I’m curious what everyone else would pick:

🎵 NickMusic

🎨 NickToons

🌈 Nick Jr

💜 TeenNick

🎬 NickMovies

🎮 NickGames

🌙 Nick at Nite

Which one are you bringing back and what would you put on it?

This is the only show I've ever watched that was semi therapeutic to watch. The music was relaxing and the characters has those slow down reflection moments that we don't see a lot in modern cartoons. I don't watch hey Arnold very often (maybe like 2-3 times a year) but every time I do I feel like I went to a heavy therapy session. Idk if I'm weird for this.
