I searched for a board here but could not seem to find one for it. That show use to come on Nickelodon in the 80's it was so funny. Anyone use to watch that?

I remember it, sorry but I wasnt a fan of the show.

dakert · 03-14-2009, 02:11 PM

That was a fun show. I remember watching YCDTOT along with Double Dare.

MonarC · 03-14-2009, 02:15 PM

Yeah, then I think Mr Wizard came on after it. That was a cool show too.

You Can't Do That On Television was actually produced here in Canada. It was shot at a local TV station in Ottawa, Ontario!

I've heard of it but have never seen it. Someone else mentioned Double Dare, which I DID watch faithfully.

Check out the girl in the middle row all the way to the right. That's Alanis Morisette.

Yes I used to watch that show. I'm not sure but that may have been the first show with slime. I know they still use the slime on Nickelodeon.

I saw re-runs of this when I was a kid. Never got into it then and I never got into it now.

I found the show just dumb and the skits were stupid.

For a show with that name it certainly didn't live up to the title. If you can't do that on television... then well.. i guess you can't do it on television and the show had nothing that you could not do on televison.
