Double Dare
Nickelodeon's messiest game show: take the money or take the physical challenge — and the physical challenge always meant getting slimed. Marc Summers, the giant obstacle course, and the human nose you dug through.

Figure It Out
A kid with a weird secret talent, a panel of Nickelodeon stars guessing it word by word on Billy the Answer Head, and the ever-looming Secret Slime Action ready to douse someone for "looking to the left." Summer Sanders kept order; nobody stayed dry.
Nickelodeon Gak
Mattel's stretchy, squishy neon compound that made a loud fart noise when you squished it back into its star-shaped container. Named after what the Double Dare crew called the show's on-set slime messes, Gak's genius was the noise—which was the entire point for most kids.
Nickelodeon Studios
The working Nickelodeon studio tucked inside Universal Studios Florida — the one with the giant Slime Geyser erupting green out front. Kids toured the soundstages, watched real game shows get taped, and dreamed of being the one pulled from the crowd to get slimed. For a 90s Nick fan, it was a pilgrimage.
