Howdy all. To prevent hijacking the other thread in the Nick turtles section, any further, I decided to make one here. So, did anyone watch and enjoy You Can't Do That on Television growing up?

I definitely did and is one of my earliest Nickelodeon memories...about 1985, but the did rerun the previous seasons (1981 - 1984) at the time, so I could see those. What did you like about it? Any favorite cast members? Eps? Sketches? Gags?

Please share, and if you disliked it, why?

I loved that show. I was a big fan of Moose for some reason. I miss it and have been kind of sad since around 1989 or so, whenever they stopped showing the reruns. It was one of the earliest shows I remember making it a point to watch, waaaay back when I was like three.

I was always amazed at how the whole "slime" thing eventually became general shorthand for everything "Nick" in general, but along the way it was swept away and forgotten exactly where the whole gimmick started in the first place. Always bugged me for some reason.
