Hey everybody!

I cant remember the name of this show. I vaguely remember it. It aired on the Disney Channel(?) in the early 90s, and it had a boy and a robot. They both always hung out in their basement. I remember there were lots of computers, and i think they would show cartoons. Those aren't great details, but do any of you know this show?

I think you're talking about "Wake, Rattle, and Roll", a show that originally ran in syndication in the mornings. It had live action segments interspersed with animated shorts (a new version of "Wacky Races" was one of them). When Disney reran it, they aired it in the afternoons and changed the name to "Jump, Rattle, and Roll". Check out http://www.toonarific.com/w/wakerattleroll.html to see if this is what you're thinking of.
