Dirtydutch 8 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I just downloaded the complete series, and I forgot just how much of my early life's creative euphemized cursing is owed to Little Pete. That show it still the tits, and if you watched it as a kid, I recommend revisiting it. Link to post Share on other sites
Zilla 0 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Funny the group that was originally targeted for this show was 15-25, but it ended up doing best with the 9-15 market at the time. Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtydutch 8 Posted July 31, 2007 Author Share Posted July 31, 2007 15-25? Really? I guess that explains the music. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I remember the days of Nickelodeon when they had the Pete & Pete shorts. Those were slightly amusing, but when they got the series, they created one of the most creative and endearing sitcoms in history. It's so ridiculously character rich and quirky. It's a shame the series wasn't able to run longer than it did. I recall the end being somewhat sporadically drawn out. And then for years, they were completely absent from TV and video. As soon as I came across the torrents a couple of years ago, I grabbed them up. Unlike some other shows that I liked durng that period, they hold up to the test of time.

Vandees 0 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 My favorite was the bully, I think he was nicknamed "papercut", because he would play roshambo and always throw paper. ANd people were so scared of getting beat up if he lost they always threw rock. But not little Pete. The scene where he throws scissors twice in a row is priceless.Great show.

Endless Mike was really the most recurrent bully. Link to post Share on other sites

Then there's Pit Stain...It's amazing how they were able to create such a bizarre alternate reality without any special effects. Yeah, but rewatching this brings me back to every Saturday afternoon/night of my childhood, even memories of waiting for Hey Dude! to be over so something that wasn't boring could come on.
