About This Quiz

Oh, so you thought Nickelodeon was only about 20 years old or so? Well, think again. This children's TV channel has been around for twice as long and is geared toward children aged 2 to 17 years old. During the 40 years that the channel has been around, it has had many, many TV shows. You might be familiar with shows like "Drake and Josh," "iCarly" and "Victorious." But before that, there were shows that the kids today will never understand. So if you're a (late) Gen X-er or (early) millennial, you'll probably be nodding your head in agreement with all we've just said. Let's take a trip down memory lane and see which old-school Nickelodeon TV show you are. 

Are you the show "Fifteen?'" It was a drama that dealt with issues like divorce, alcohol abuse and other very serious issues in the 90s. Or are you "You Can't Do That on Television?" This show was a sketch comedy that related to pop culture in the early 80s. Do you remember "Double Dare?" This game show included answering trivia questions and completing physical challenges. Or maybe you're "Little Bear." It was an animated series based on books of the same name.

If your nostalgia for "Clarissa Explains it All," "Pete and Pete," "Hey Arnold!" and "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" is driving you wild, then take this quiz and relive the golden days of Nickelodeon! Stick Stickly would want you to.
