ALL GROWN UP: All That's Josh Server

Some say age is just a number, some say to act your age & not your shoe size. Some of us age gracefully & get better with time, like a fine wine or cheese ;) ahaha While some of us fade into the background, into obscurity.

The point I'm getting at, is that for 33, Josh Server has aged wonderfully into a very handsome grown man. His baby face that we all grew up watching has disappeared, however we now get a more sophisticated Josh than before :)

Here's some pictures from Josh's most recent photoshoot & you can follow him on twitter @Josh_Server

What do you think, better before or now?!

2011: The Year of Nostalgia


"If every generation has a moment where they adopt a rose-colored perspective of the people and pop culture of its past, the 20-somethings had their turn in 2011." -CNN




Those who came of age in the '80s and '90s now span the demographic that's exiting college or creeping into their 30s. As they do so, various cultural outlets are recreating or referencing the TV shows, movies, fashion and music on which they were raised.
This year, we were reacquainted with the staccato giggles of the animated "Beavis and Butt-Head," which returned to MTV after originally appearing on the network from 1993 to 1997. And then, in perhaps the biggest TV flashback, was TeenNick 's weekly late-night block of programming, "The '90s Are All That."

At the box office, 1994's "The Lion King" was re-released in 3-D in September, and we can now expect 1991's "Beauty and the Beast" and 1989's "The Little Mermaid" to be theatrically re-released in 3-D as well.
It's the same deal with James Cameron's 1997 blockbuster "Titanic," which will also be back in theaters in 3-D in the spring. Not to mention "The Muppets" being dusted off for another theatrical jaunt this year, courtesy of "How I Met Your Mother" star Jason Segel (a series that thrives on the theme of nostalgia and looking back).
This year was kind to the musicians of the '90s, as NKOTBSB -- the supergroup made up of New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys -- pulled in $40 million with their tour, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
And if that wasn't enough, the very depiction of '90s whimsy, Lisa Frank, has added clothing to its swath of school supplies. Of course, they'd be remiss to not have adult sizes.
It seems that while the kids have grown up, a lot of the culture that surrounds them hasn't.

90's Throwback Vid of the Day: Spice Girls Perform on All That

1997

Joe RUINED Blue's Clues, Just Like Jamie Lynn Spears RUINED All That

In a previous post I clarified that Steve Burns, AKA Steve from Blue's Clues is ALIVE & WELL. As most of you 90's kids know, on the show Steve went to "college" and his "cousin" Joe took over the show. EPIC FAIL, right?!
In real life, Steve Burns went on to a pursue a "music career" & well I haven't heard his music, but I think it's safe to say it probably isn't as cool as he was on the show!
After JOE took over the show didn't last another 6 years, and didn't continue to be hugely popular like it was when Steve was on & ultimately came to it's demise. However, we can't place all the blame on poor old Joe, because Steve did leave on his own terms. I imagine it'd be a tough to fill the shoes of someone so well received & liked.
Even though your sister was literally the coolest person on the planet in the 90's, that doesn't necessarily mean your meant to be a star too...Jamie Lynn!
Jamie Lynn Spears only got hired for "All That" because of who her sister is, because it DEFINITELY wasn't for those acting chops of hers!
She came onto the "All That" scene in the 8th season, when the show was basically a watered down version of what it use to be. If Nickelodeon thought she would breath life into the show, they definitely thought wrong! 
FOR WHATEVER REASON, she was able to land her own show after All That wrapped, called "HOEY 101" whoops I mean "ZOEY 101"
Which made shows like iCarly seem like some kind of artistic masterpiece.
Proving that you can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl, Jamie Lynn got knocked up at the age of 16! Ultimately ending Hoey 101 & Jamie Lynn's acting career for good!

Subliminal Messages in Our 90's Cartoons: HEY ARNOLD Edition

Your eyes are NOT deceiving you, this is Arnold's grandpa Phil & what appears to be a penis. Hilarious now, creepy then? Or vice versa?! YOU BE JUDGE. 
However, I'm definitely not gonna be able to look at him the same for now on! ahaha.

On the bright side, as long as we don't have to look at the picture bellow of Helga I think we'll be all good! ahaha

Putting NASTY RUMORS to REST!

There was a paper floating around the interweb this week that sounded good enough to FLY out of your seat & start praising the lord! 
The paper claimed Nickelodeon was starting production back on all their classic shows, and wait for it...EVEN CLAIMED A NOW PREGGERZ "LIZZIE MCGUIRE" WAS TO COME BACK ON THE AIR! (insert ROFLMAO here.) ahaha that should of been the first clue it was a hoax, but ALSO Nickelodeon doesn't use that logo anymore so...NICE TRY BITCHES! ;)
Luckily, the creator of HEY ARNOLD Craig Bartlett was able to put the rumors to be rest!
Although, a 90's kid can still dream...right?!
XOXO

90's Kid's Rejoice EXCLUSIVE: WAS KEL AN ORPHAN?!?!

Was Kel Mitchell the 90's little ORPHAN Annie?!


While it's been under debate for quite sometime in the underground 90's nostalgia community for sometime, it's just now starting to be asked more regularly now that Kenan & Kel is back on the air. WHAT YOU ASK?!?!
IS KEL AN ORPHAN ON THE SHOW?!
Well...all signs point to the obvious...YES! 
Our favorite orange soda loving homie was the 90's modern day ORPHAN ANNIE!
Ever wonder WHY WE NEVER SEE HIS PARENTS ON THE SHOW, or WHY HIS MAIL GETS DELIVERED TO THEIR HOUSE, or WHY HIS ASS NEVER WANTS TO GO HOME EVEN WHEN KENAN'S DAD'S EYES ARE BULGING OUT OF HIS EYE SOCKETS?!
It would certainly explain Kel's enormous gap in between his teeth, right?! The poor kid was suffering from malnutrition! 
WHILE KEL WAS LIVING ON NOTHING BUT ORANGE SODA...SOME PHATTY WAS GABBLING FOOD DOWN LIKE Y2K WAS REAL! (WE WON'T MENTION ANY NAMES.)
DO YOU THINK KEL WAS AN ORPHAN?!

ATTENTION LADIES!!! Get the DOUG FUNNIE LOOK!!!

Doug dresses very plain & preppy, but manages to look super cute doing so! Here's how the ladies can get the DOUG FUNNIE LOOK!








Thou Shall Enjoy the Last Week of DOUG on NICKELODEON! ;(


Yes, it's a VERY sad week for Doug lovers :( Bufflington's head honcho in charge (hear that ROGER!) will be disappearing from our TV sets on SEPTEMBER 5 to "make room" for other shows. For whatever reason I don't know, but we must make the best out of any bad situation & enjoy our final week of Doug! 


This week I will be featuring as many stories as possible featuring Funnie & the gang so be on the look out for those!

Hopefully this isn't a goodbye entirely & they'll realize what a mistake they've made and re-add DOUG to the line up!
OR MAYBE they'll create an all 90's Nickelodeon channel!
(A BOY CAN DREAM RIGHT?!)
