The falling green goop was a defining characteristic of Nickelodeon from the 80s onward. When he does, a toilet flushes and the signature green slime that has become so ubiquitous with Nickelodeon pours down on his head. And who would dump that on a kid? Unsure of who their target audience was, Nickelodeon ran syndicated episodes of the Canadian show all the time.
It was a huge hit that helped define the early days of the channel. As the series progressed, one thing was abundantly clear—kids loved the slime. The use of slime spread to other shows. In Wild and Crazy Kids , a competition show for kids that encouraged playing outside, the three kid-hosts got slimed while announcing contests and awarding prizes.
Eventually, the network cashed on slime and started hawking it to kids in various goofy spin-off products. Nickelodeon Slime Shampoo, by Fisher-Price, became all the rage when it pretty much invented the kids haircare market in the late 80s. From until the mid s, the best place to get slimed was at Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando, Florida.
It was a hybrid of a soundstage and a theme park, where they held tapings of shows like Double Dare, Clarissa Explains It All, Legends of the Hidden Temple, and much more.
