video: enjoy an entire episode of nickelodeon game show “legends of the hidden temple”

nickeloden game shows fall into two camps: shows for cool kids, and shows for pussies. shows for pussies include “finders keepers”, “nick arcade” & “get the picture” (where the biggest risk you’d take would be not getting the correct picture). lame. nobody even got covered in slime.

nick’s best game shows involved putting regular kids in dangerous situations with the hopes of winning a nintendo. shows like “g.u.t.s.”, where you’d have to climb a mountain while having foam rocks thrown at you, are what i’m talking about. “wild and crazy kids” involved actually having to go outside - take that, “make the grade”, you bunch of fucking assholes. all you had to do was answer some trivia questions and maybe do a “fire drill”, which was just ripped off of double dare anyway.

god i’m pissed off today. anyway, legends of the hidden temple was pretty dope - the stunts were hard, you’d win “amulets of protection”, and your host was a giant talking face named olmec. if your team won, you’d run through the temple, where you’d be routinely assaulted by natives who’d try to scare the shit out of you (and easily scared the shit out of me). out of amulets of protection? then boy, you’re fucked.
