TV today pretty much sucks, in my opinion.
granted, i watch a lot of bad bad stuff. if it's celebrity-based, i'll probably watch it. and if it's REALLY tabloid-y, i'll definitely watch it. and that goes ditto for all those "fabulous life" shows on VH1, and crap on MTV like laguna (yes, i watch laguna. it is one of my ultimate televised guilty pleasures. don't judge me.) if i'm home when "what not to wear" is on, i'll watch it. and at school, i always made time for veronica mars and gilmore girls (before it started to suck as much as i currently think it does).
but people of my generation remember the spectacular programming that was offered on nickelodeon in the early-mid 90's. with that thought in mind, i bring you a few of my very faborites, as presented and made available by youtube, which i grow to love more and more ever damn day.
