playing: N.E.R.D - She Wants To Move
so i called ryan right away about whether or not i should get tickets to the tour ... and somehow the conversation turns to old-school tv. you know how everyone gets back to talking about old-school cartoons (how our cartoons were so much better than the kids cartoons nowadays!) i got tired of talking cartoons. so i talked about gameshows. & i narrowed it down to some of my top favorites (oh, hells yeah! haha):
Where ... is Carmen San Diego? (91-96, 96-98)
ok, ok, i was a geek. the best part was answering the questions before the players did or getting stumped and being all, oooOOOOooooh.


legends of the hidden temple (93-95)
the Steps of Knowledge, Pendant of Life, Shrine of the Silver Monkey ... hahaha ... goodstuff. my favorite team was the Silver Snakes ... haha ... & you all know, i was NOT the only one who got freaked out when those Temple Guards would pop out! haha


nick arcade (92-93)
Mikey, The Wizard's Challenge, Super Ghouls'n'Ghosts ... lol ... i was always like, DUH! JUMP! the prizes were horrible but i think this was during the time where we had just gotten a Nintendo or Super Nintendo! (yeAH buddy!) and gaming was all the rage.


Double Dare (86-91, 90-93)
i liked and disliked this show. sometimes it was boring and other times it was the funniest thing. i think i liked it most because of that BiG NOSE that they had to dig through in the end to find the flag. haha, as a kid, that was the most hilarious shit.
The Crystal Maze
joy and i were committed to this show every Tuesday night back in Japan. I think its from UK or Australia or something. The host was pretty ... uhm, off? but i guess that was part of what made it interesting. the games were either: physicaly, mental, skill, or mystery. ooooh! mystery! haha ... dammit, i wish someone else remembered it! lol ...

other honorable mentions:
+ Global Guts: the AGRO-CRAG! haha, wtf?!
+ Fun House
+ did i miss one? add it in the comments
of course as you grow older, the concepts of some of these shows become ridiculously clear: how retarded?! the prizes were dumb at times and omg, the hosts could be so corny. but you watched it. every week or even day, you watched it. and now that theres so much going on, you miss it. i do miss these ones.
k im done. peace out, kids.
