7 Classic Nickelodeon Shows That Deserve A Reboot In 2016
How amazing would it be if these iconic shows came back into our lives?
You may have heard the 90s TV game show that inspired your competitive spirit is coming back on air.
Yep. Legends of the Hidden Temple is becoming a TV movie!
Since our favorite parts of the 90s are slowly sneaking back into our lives, why not consider what other shows could make a successful comeback? These are our picks for the Nickelodeon shows that definitely deserve a reboot.
1. "Clarissa Explains It All"
Our favorite adolescent know-it-all helped us through all of life's troubles during our most angsty years. Clarissa really understood what it was like for 90s pre-teens, so she should totally come back again to explain adulthood to us. HALP ME, MJH.
Best part? Our dreams may come true! Melissa Joan Hart is currently in talks to reprise her role as Clarissa or "Sabrina the Teenage Witch.
2. "The Amanda Show"
Reviving this late 90s sketch comedy show would be the perfect career move for Amanda Bynes, who's clearly seen better days.
"The Girls Room" could easily be repurposed to tackle modern-day feminist issues, while "Judge Trudy" could tackle public legal disputes à la Nancy Grace (we all know Bynes has been in a courtroom at least once or twice).
Besides, if the dancing lobsters are busy, I think Left Shark and Right Shark might be in need of a job.
3. "All That"
Mostly because we need to see Kenan Thompson sit in a bathtub cracking immature French jokes as a full-blown adult.
Lucky for all of us, the original cast of "All That" is already planning a reunion that will make your 90s-loving heart skip a beat.
4. "Rugrats"
Even those of us who grew up and realized we don't even like kids can admit we LOVED "Rugrats." A short-lived spin-off followed the gang into their teens, but was only around for a short time.
How does the pint-sized group shake out in adulthood? Did Tommy finally take off the diaper so he could lose his virginity in college? Inquiring minds need to know.
5. "Figure It Out"
"Figure It Out" had EVERYTHING: it was funny, it was smart and it was suspenseful (seriously, who knew when the Secret Slime was going to start pouring down?)
How is it that "Jeopardy still exists, but "Figure It Out" was canned? I've still got a lot of bizarre childhood talents I'd like to showcase for Marc Summers.
6. "The Wild Thornberrys"
This nomadic family was #squadgoals before that was even a thing. Is Eliza still living my dream of being a globetrotter who can also talk to animals? Did Donnie ever learn to speak English? Did Eliza become the next Jane Goodall? Good lord, what a cool family.
7. "Doug"
But seriously, how amazing would it be to see Doug all grown up and married to Patty (😍 ), now trying his best to raise a helplessly anxious group of mini Dougs?!? And maybe Roger got a few too many DUIs and now he lives across the street, cooking meals for one. A girl can dream.
