reaf reafOG 2002

i didnt start watching tv till i was like 7 or 8, and it was just basic tc so if it wasnt on 2 4 7 or 11 i didnt see it

it was on Nickelodeon I think. I watched waaay too much tv as a kid.

reaf reafOG 2002

Oh, then i definalty would have never known about it, we didnt get Nickelodean till like 98-99

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

same here...we used to have to stand by the tv and hold the rabbit ears so we could watch Electric Company (which by the way was the inspiration for No Doubt's "Hey Baby" video---see i'm just full of useless information) then my parents got a vcr and it changed our life i think we have the most taped from tv movies of anyone i know. The Little Mermaid was our first purchased movie and we practically wore out the tape.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

ok4now ok4nowOG 2002

morgan freeman was on EC...i used to watch the PBS ROCK-BLOCK...sesame street, electric company, magic garden, mr. rogers, and zoom

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

i loved all those shows...whenever i babysit i make the kids watch sesame street and zoom instead of nickelodeon shows...they are much more educational...i used to watch mr. wizard on nickelodeon though and that was like a super dry zoom

ok4now ok4nowOG 2002

i forgot about mr. wizard! i used to always turn his show on about 4 mins before it was over...so i just got to see something blow up and whatnot

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

i used to get up early to watch it with my dad before he went to work...we also watched zoobalie zoo and mousercise

iwz iwz

You've got your looks, your pretty face, and don't underestimate the importance of body language.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003

WOW! Look at this, it's a dinglehopper!

reaf reafOG 2002

haha, me and my sister had the book, and it came with a cassete tape, so we knew all the words to all the songs on it, we even made dances to some of them, our favorite dance we did was the jig...haha.. I think by far little mermaid is our all time favorite walt disney.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

we were definiteliy obsessed. my mom bought us a book of the songs to play on our recorders. she also bought us a puzzle we did while we watched the movie. whenever we went in our pool we played mermaids and put diving rings on our feet to keep them together.

reaf reafOG 2002

haha, HOly crap, we did that to with the diving rings...lol

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 reaf

awesome---i taught it to all the kids i babysit for so the next generation knows ;)

iwz iwz forrestina

haha, little kids with rings around their feet and water sounds like a recipe for disaster!

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 iwz

no we were like fish my mom threw us in the pool to learn how to swim...actually i fell in in the winter and swam across under the cover so i could get out at the ladder and i had never swam before that
