The Shari Show - Nick Knacks Episode #059
Shari Lewis was one of the most versatile and creative people in children's entertainment in the 20th century. Today, we look at her life and works through the lens of The Shari Show, a twelve-episode puppet program from 1975 that might be a bit more personal than you thought.

Double Dare (A Franchise Retrospective) - Nick Knacks Episode #056
The year was 1986, and Gerry Laybourne had done a lot to clean up Nickelodeon's image, making it a fun place for kids. But Laybourne still lacked a career-defining hit show. So, she locked four people in an office and told them to make the best children's game show ever. This is the story of Double Dare, from it's humble begi...

From the "was that real, or did I just make it all up" part of your brain comes Spartakus and the Sun Beneath the Sea. We've got secret underground civilizations, we've got cartoon anteaters, we've got punk pirates, and we've got the same two songs repeated over and over and over and over and over...

Duane and Stephanie decide to break into a copyright-infringing haunted house to find a ghost's missing head. It's a pretty classic ghost story plot, so let's see how R.L. Stine messes it up.
