Any fans of You Can't Do That on Television here?

[Jeffrey Gray]

Hi,

I recently rediscovered the classic 80s kids' sketch comedy, You Can't Do That on Television (which used to be on Nickelodeon long, long ago), and I was wondering...are there any fans of it here? Come on, somebody here besides me has to have laughed when someone got slimed after saying "I don't know," or got soaked after saying "water"; or when someone would joke about how bad Barth's hamburgers were; or when a kid would be able to trick himself/herself out of getting shot by the firing squad; or maybe those kooky opposite sketches.

Anyone?

I wasn't allowed to watch it as a kid.

But I snuck it whenever I could.

I often wonder what happened to Moose. And that Alanis girl....;)

I used to love that show! But, I did have to sneak it as well whenever my parents weren't around. Don't remember any specific skits, but I get a happy feeling of nostalga remembering people getting "slimed" :crazy:

I liked Christine and Allistair.

I DON'T KNOW
*SPLAT!*

Oh, and Barf in the cafeteria was a trip. They went thru 2 guys to play that role, I think.

Nope. Barth (who ran a hamburger joint, not a cafeteria) was only played by one person, Les Lye (who played ALL of the adult male roles on the show).

Dyaaa....I heard that!

Barth was always the same, but he had an assistant; a kid with a mop or something. I think that's who changed. I never realised until I got older how much this show parralled "Laugh In."

[Fozzie Bear]

I thought the older guy on the show changed at some point. Wow. And I also always thought it was "Barf."

So, is there any website about this show that tells whatever happened to the stars of the show? I think it'd be fun to see a reunion show!!

As I alluded to before. I think Alanis has done pretty well for herself.

I've not heard about any of the other cast members though.

I forgot my other favorite besides Alisdair and Christine, it was Kevin Kubusheski!!

That was a cool site, thanks.

I also didn't realize that Alannys Morriset came from that show!

I too was a fan of the show! I found a YCDTOT shirt at Hot Topic but nobody ever knows what it is when I wear it :p

Eh...I wasn't as much a fan of YCDTOT as I was Roundhouse. Roundhouse still remains my favorite of the variety show-type programs Nick has run over the years (YCDTOT, Roundhouse, All That and The Amanda Show).

Oh, I loved Roundhouse too! Nick was a good station, they had some great shows *sigh* Besides the afore mentioned, my favorites were Clarrisa Explains it All, Pete and Pete, and Salute Your Shorts. Luckily my roomate was a big PP fan so she had a zillion episodes on tape that we watched last year.

[Ilikemuppets]

Yes! Very big fan! Hugs in fact! They need this show out and availible to watch right now!

I had a minor crush on Kevin Kubusheki!:o What can I say...I thought he was cute!
