Today’s 5pm Quiz was originally posted during ’80s Week last spring. Half the fun of Nickelodeon was tuning in to find out what those kooky producers could dream up next. How often did you tune in? Show us what you know!

Take the Quiz: Nickelodeon

  1. Marc Summers now hosts Unwrapped on the Food network. I think it was the episode about sour treats when he picked up an extremely sour candy and told people to try one and said with a sly grin, “I double dare you.”

    Awesome.

    Captcha: competing there

  2. In trying to convince us non-Pennsylvanians of the superiority of a local Philly cheese steak place, a friend of mine referenced the episode of Unwrapped featuring the restaurant. How could we argue when “Marc Summers, host of Double Dare, HIMSELF” said so?

  3. Wow 10/10. I guess I really did/do watch too much TV. “You Can’t Do That on Television” was one of my favorite TV shows as a kid, I wish they still had re-runs somewhere. And I totally remember Pinwheel, but I only liked the skits that involved the puppets, I changed the channel when the animation stuff started…lol. Ahh, memories.

  4. Interestingly, Marc Summers admits that he has OCD and working on the decidedly messy set of Double Dare was very hard for him.

  5. 9/10. Not bad. I watched wayyy too much Nickelodeon as a kid. I have to say I’m a bit disappointed there wasn’t a “The Adventures of Pete & Pete” question. That had to be one of my favorites.

    As an aside, one of my family friends is from La Crosse, Wisconsin. Her grandmother dated Don Herbert for a little while when he was at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I thought that was pretty cool when I found out about it a few years ago.

  6. Marc Summers of Sam?
