In many ways, the sticky substance glued the network together. As Nickelodeon's original programming expanded into animation and live-action sitcoms, a new show, Slime Time Live, began airing between the commercial breaks of popular shows.
Marc Summers has announced on Twitter that Nickelodeon has sadly decided to cancel and not renew it's Double Dare revival for a third season.

Most temple games lasted for a maximum of 60 seconds but some were untimed. After each challenge, the winning team received some portion of a protective Pendant of Life. The first two challenges, pitting single members from each team against one another, were worth one half of a pendant, while the final challenge, involving both contestants on both teams, was worth a full pendant. If a temple game ended in a tie, both teams received the pendant value of that game.
Teams have four minutes rather than three minutes to complete the Temple Run in a redesigned temple. The winning team receives $2,500 just for entering the temple, which is increased to $10,000 if they reach the artifact, and to $25,000 if they exit the temple before time expires.
Olmec began the round by telling the remaining teams the episode's legend of the featured artifact, which became the theme for the remainder of the episode. The legend centered on an artifact which the winning team searched for in the final round. At the end of the legend, Olmec told the teams the room in which the artifact could be found. After finishing, he asked the teams a series of questions to test their memory. Each multiple-choice question had three possible answers. A team attempting to answer signaled by stomping on a button on their step, causing the front of the step to illuminate (if Olmec was still in the middle of asking a question, he stopped talking immediately). A team who answered correctly moved down to the next level. If a team answered incorrectly or ran out of time (three seconds after being called upon ), the other teams were given a chance to answer. The first two teams to answer three questions correctly and thereby reach the bottom level advanced to the next round.
The team had three minutes to retrieve the artifact and leave the temple with it. If either contestant grabbed the artifact, all remaining temple guards vanished and all locked doors in the temple instantly opened, allowing the contestant to escape unhindered. For entering the temple, the team automatically won a prize. If a team member picked up the artifact, the team won a more expensive prize as well. A team that retrieved the artifact and exited the temple with it before time ran out earned the grand prize, in addition to the other two prizes. Starting with season 2, the temple had an actual gate that Olmec would lower before the round started.
The set design of Legends of the Hidden Temple was based on the Indiana Jones movies, and Marianne Arneberg of the Orlando Sentinel described the program as "a combination of Jeopardy and Raiders of the Lost Ark ". The set design has been described as Mayan.
Legends of the Hidden Temple is an American action-adventure TV game show that broadcast from 1993 to 1995 on Nickelodeon. Created by David G. Stanley, Scott A. Stone, and Stephen Brown, the program features a fictitious temple, "filled with lost treasures protected by mysterious Mayan temple guards".
Olmec narrated the stories told in the steps of knowledge and temple game challenges (although in the first season, Fogg narrated the temple game challenges). Each episode centered on a particular legend regarding an artifact (real or fictional) from around the world that found its way to the temple.
Remember when the television landscape had game shows aimed at kids that actually featured kid contestants? If you do, you likely grew up during the 80s and 90s. For whatever reason, there doesn't seem to be anywhere near the number of kids game shows today, so we decided to take a look back on the best ones the 90s had to offer. +1 to Nostalgia!
Premise: Two teams comprised of a boy and a girl on each competed against each other by answering questions, playing in messy stunt games, and racing around a track . The winners got a chance to run through the final Fun House obstacle course.
Premise: Based on Brøderbund Software's computer game series, the live-action game show was created after a National Geographic survey found that one in four Americans could not locate the Soviet Union or the Pacific Ocean on a map. ( "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, uh, people out there in our nation don't have maps...") Three contestants, known as "Gumshoes", have been recruited by ACME Detective Agency to track down Carmen Sandiego and her henchmen by answering geography-based trivia questions. The Gumshoes were given Crime Bucks to start out, rewarded with more for each correct answer, and allowed to wager their Crime Bucks based on how certain they were as to the criminals' location. The Gumshoe with the lowest bank account at the end of the first round did not get to continue on.
Premise: Similar to a Candid Camera -type show, You're On! featured kid contestants trying to convince strangers to perform certain tasks while the adults were unknowingly being filmed. The contestants were assisted in the field by remote hosts and were allowed to work together to complete three related tasks, usually silly but harmless things like playing hopscotch. If the kids managed to get someone to do all three tasks in less than 10 minutes, they won a major prize; failing still won them a prize, just a smaller one. Since the remote tasks were pre-recorded, a parallel game called Runaround involved audience members - kids and their related adult guardian - guessing how many of the tasks each of the contestant pairs would successfully get strangers to complete. Adults who lost this game would end up getting slimed or having to do some other disgusting task.
Each step along the way triggered trivia quizzes, video puzzles, instant-win prizes, enemies and video game challenges; Points! Puzzles! Pop Quizzes! and Prizes! The winning team got a chance to play in The Video Zone, a massive bluescreen background in front of which contestants would act as the character within a game, attempting to beat three levels, including one of three Video Game Wizards of the day.
Reason for Ranking: If the name of the show's bonus round creeps you out, then you can understand why it's ranked 14th on this list. Only slightly less creepy than having teenage cheerleaders running around the set, Think Fast! had contestants run through a mock-up locker room in order to match a pair of locker doors. The trick is that each door had a puppet which would distract the player with water cannons, confetti, or any number of crazy things. While Think Fast! gains points for its variety and difficulty of its levels, it doesn't climb any higher on this list thanks to the dreaded locker room.
Premise: Taped at the San Diego Zoo, four child contestants competed in a series of mental and physical challenges for a chance to win the grand prize of being zookeeper for a day.
The game had to be routinely paused because of players crying, having panic attacks, and even throwing up.
The series was eventually canceled for being too dark and scary for children.
Creepy Crawlers centered on a kid who was interested in magic and had a job at a local magic shop. The show beings when he accidentally creates man-sized bug-like mutant creatures who are capable of magic abilities when using a device called The Magic Maker.
15 Beetlejuice (1989-1991) - Creepy. Beetlejuice the animated series is based on the movie of the same name from Tim Burton . The series follows the ghostly and charismatic Beetlejuice in his misadventures and re-imagines Lydia as his partner in crime.
The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy follows two oddball kids who befriend the Grim Reaper and go on various adventures with him. Billy and Mandy go through normal problems that kids go through from issues with family or school, but some of the episodes focus on more paranormal adventures.
Scary kids' shows were usually created in the 90s or early 2000s and the animation style for several of the series, like in Courage the Cowardly Dog, contributed to its creepy factor.
Created to be a kid-friendly version of the popular HBO show, Tales from the Crypt, Tales from the Cryptkeeper was a popular cartoon that was a sort-of anthology series. However, unlike its adult HBO counterpart, the Cryptkeeper character was much more a part of the plot in the cartoon.
Nickelodeon's athletic game show pitted three teens against each other in extreme sports competition, culminating in a final climb on the Aggro Crag.
Chris Hardwick hosted this show where stuff was at stake. Teams of two brought three beloved objects each from home, and if the opposing team beat you to the correct answers, smash went your CD player. MST3K' s Joel Hodgson and comedian Brian Posehn wrote and occasionally starred in question sketches.
Real talk, none of us really forgot this shopping-centric show where contestants would answer questions and guess prices in hopes of making it to a final, literal supermarket sweep where whomever racked up the biggest tab won the game.
This MTV gameshow had four contestants pick their "savant category" — something they were unusually well-versed in - and play through an entire week, with the winner of the day getting to play a bonus game and the winner of the week walking away with a grand prize. Questions were often framed as comedy sketches played by the show's writers.
Fox's slightly racier version of The Dating Game had two guys go on dates with three ladies, then answer questions to win little hearts — whomever had more would be the tiebreaker should more than one couple correctly choose who wanted to date whom at the game's end.
Video game trivia and blue screen technology combined to let one lucky team enter the Video Zone, where they live-action played three levels to reach the final boss, a Video Wizard. Before that, players competed in Mikey's World, where game-related trivia and mini-games moved character Mikey around a board.
Marc Sommers hosted this pie-centric punishment game show, where contestants would watch pre-recorded segments that would be paused at specific points, whence the title question would come into play, before the tape was un-paused and the actual results were seen.
