As pointed out on my friend’s awesome blog, For Cinephiles by a Cinefille, Teen Nick will have a 90′s programming block from midnight to 2a.m. called “The ’90s Are All That.” It will be devoted to all of the classics: All That, Clarissa Explains It All, The Adventures of Pete & Pete and Rugrats! Yes, 20-somethings who grew up with these shows, our prayers have been answered.

Typically, a show’s season starts and its arc begins to climax during “sweeps” (the months of November, February, May, and July).
