  lol looking at that list reminds me of how great tv was…the music for inspector gadget has been resampled so many times over by indie techno and rap songs.

  These are all great, but Rugrats belongs on here too. Fine work by Mark Mothersbaugh from Devo.

  Great job!
  I also liked the Gullah Gullah Island theme song.
  Does anyone remember “Welcome Freshmen” or the teen soap “15″.

  Seeing that Pete And Pete Theme Song brought me back to when I was 8. Good Times.
  P.s.-Are You Afraid Of The Dark? Why no representation?

  I can’t believe you left out Turkey TV! I remember little about the show itself but the theme song has been stuck in my head for about 25 years.

  Simply awesome. I wish Danger Mouse was on this list seeing it was on the time slot after Mr. Wizard.

  Other than that… great list. A mixture of old and new.

  And yes I agree… Nick went to hell after 1999.

  Honorable Theme Mentions:
  Danger Mouse
  Banana Man
  Double Dare
  Nick Arcade
  Welcome Freshmen
  Kids Court
  and of course…. the old Nickelodeon Sign Off**

  Such great memories!!! I remember everything from You Can’t Do That On Televison & Pinwheel in the early 80’s all the way until the later 90’s!!! They were all good in the 80’s through the mid 90’s but the later 90’s started going downhill!!!
