Ugh, who didn't want to sport a sick Red Jaguars, Blue Barracudas, Green Monkeys, Orange Iguanas, Purple Parrots, or Silver Snakes shirt while they received challenges from a talking rock named Olmec and were scared half to death by a hidden Temple Guard?

A gigantic scavenger hunt in a two story home where no one would yell at you for making a mess--I kind of wanted to live there.

I was largely an un-gifted child, but that didn't stop me from wanting to be on the one show that made the infamous Nickelodeon green slime famous.

Fun Fact: The three panelists who were in the most episodes are: Lori Beth Denberg (115 ep.), Danny Tamberelli (96 ep.) and Amanda Bynes (52 ep.)

The whole show was just you playing arcade games and then when you won you would get to play in a virtual video game---my life goals as a kid.
