im 20 years old and i feel like an old fart because i cant really remember details from the old nick shows. but one thing i do remember after thinking about this show is zeke the plumber. This guy use to scare the *beep* clean out of my intestine. anyone else?
shareHey I'm 19 and I loved this show as a kid, especially Budnick's character. Thanks to whoever posted the link of the episode- I couldn't believe it was out there. I was so creeped out by Zeke as a kid, and after seeing the epidose he still is kinda creepy. I mean old school nickelodeon rocked back in the day! I miss it.
sharegod i was sooooooooooooooooooooo scared of zeke the plumber hahha
shareIt's not camp without a scary story or two.

ahaha im filipino and as a kid it was one of the first very rare references to the philippines on Nick.
"they say he got his nose bit off by a parrot in the philippines!"
does anyone know who played zeke the plumber? if i were on eof those kids, i would have ran like hell!
"look ape I'm on tv!"
"spring breaky!!"
both said by bam ;]
Even as a kid I knew there was something very familiar about his voice, but all I knew was it sounded familiar and it sounded cool.
I saw this episode again recently, and I'm pretty sure it was UG who played Zeke. Check it out and tell me if i'm right or wrong.
I haven't watched the episode with Zeke the Plumber in a long time (even though a link is provided)!!!! I'm 18 and I remember Zeke dancing with this one girl (it was like a nightmare?) and how he threatened to use his plunger on the campers' faces!! Zeke scared me so badly when I was younger.

That was easily one of my favorite episodes. It had so many funny dialogue exchanges, like this one when Budnick is telling the story of Zeke:
Budnick: "Zeke can't tell there's a gas leak, because he doesn't have a nose, and then..."
Donkey Lips: "He makes a big mistake and lights a match!"
Budnick: "(Angrily, to Donkey Lips) Hey, who's telling this story? (To the rest of the people there) He makes a big mistake and lights a match! BOOM!"
Speaking of which, I think that episode also had one of the first scenes in the series when Donkey Lips really stands up to Budnick, that was good. Also, Budnick demonstrated a surprising amount of ingenuity and cleverness with all those traps he set.
i agree with the other poster. im pretty sure Ug played Zeke. it looked a lot like him in the episode, and im pretty sure Ug did it to scare Budnick. He pretended to be Zeke to scare him and get back at Budnick for all his pranks.

I turn 20 Friday. I remember that I used to have nightmares about Zeke the Plumber. You're right, he was scarier than anything on Are You Afraid of the Dark.
shareI always found it cool. Im filipino and in the 90s, hell even now, the phillipines was never ever mentioned on tv it seemed to me. But they said somewhere that zeke got his nose bitten off by a parrot in the phillipines haha. Why they said the phillipines and not vam' or china really confuses me. For that reason Ill always remember that episode
dude, im 16 and i remember that episode.
zeke the plumber scared me so much!!!!
