God the kids in this were so bad on the last level.

Way fucking worse than Legend of the Hidden Temple kids.

But nothing beats the kids who had to fuck around in who knows what kind of goo in Family Doubledare, all for a lame-ass karaoke machine.

    That's the documentary that shows Billy acting like a huge prick, right? I saw that on tv a while back, and that's the only thing about the movie I remember.

    That, and the twin galaxies game ref.

    I went to "Nickelodeon Live" as a child and the host from Nick Arcade nearly knocked me down and trampled me while he was running up and down the stairs at the auditorium it was hosted in, picking contestants for the game shows.

    Actually seeing the kids set up in front of a green tarp so they could matte in the video-game elements was both fascinating and extremely disappointing to my childhood mind. I'd always assumed there was something more to the show than them standing in front of/on top of a green tarp and watching themselves on a monitor off-screen to avoid getting hit.

    Turns out, nope.

    No. Fuck no.

    The kids were WAY worse on the final level of Legends. It's not even a contest.

    I mean of course the kids on Nick Arcade were fucking dumbasses. I don't think I ever saw a kid get the orbs on top of the second screen without taking stupid hits.

    But like, I was always inclinded to cut them a little slack because of the green screening aspect. In Legends, that shit is real. And the mistakes they made were MUCH more stupid than just not crawling low enough or jumping at the wrong time. Nick Arcade was primarily mistakes of execution, but the kids on Legends showed zero fucking cognitive ability or preplanning.

    FUCK YOU THAT MONKEY ISN'T HARD TO PUT TOGETHER! WHY DIDN'T YOU WATCH THE HALF DOZEN EPISODES FILMED EARLIER THAT DAY FOR TIPS?





    I also used to get seriously pissed off at the kids on Guts. I mean they were probably more athletic than I was, but I'm 100% sure I could have won the vast majority of the episodes (there was the occasional genuinely strong competitor) just by not being a fucking idiot.

    And don't even get me started about the strategy of choosing when to dare on Double Dare.

    Nadine from that worst of Nick Arcade thing (and is also on some "Worst Nick Arcade Contest Ever" YouTube videos) responded to a message I wrote a few months ago. I made a comment about the host's sexual preference and she then suggested that I'm also a homosexual. But I went to her YouTube channel and she's not a bad looking gal. She didn't have any videos but she had a profile picture.

    And yeah, the green screen made those games extremely difficult. They should have let the kids practice first on them.

    As for Guts, the scoring system really annoyed me. You can get your ass handed to you on the first few events and then win that Aggrocrag thing and end up the champion.

    So really, a smart contestant should have just dogged it for the first three games (or however many there were) to conserve energy, and they go flat out on that mountain for the win and that glowing piece of whatever.

    As for Double Dare, I don't know about anyone else, but I regularly pleasured myself to that female stage hand whose name I can't remember. Jesus Christ, she was built. Even in that loose Double Dare t-shirt, you could see that she had some real jugs.
