How old was everyone when this show came out? It came out in 1993, so I was 5 (now 19), and living in Richton Park, Illinois. I loved my old town, school and house. Watching Pete and Pete now reminds me of all that.

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
I was eight years old when this became a series, but I can remember the shorts prior to that. I enjoyed the series as a child but I was more drawn to shows like "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" since I love being scared. In spite of that, I swear a part of my young mind nagged at me and told me something was really special about this show and I remember feeling butterflies of excitement when I saw snippets of a new episode. Now, as an adult, it has made me long more for my childhood more than any show, any toy, any song, and any vague concept of what youth was about. This show was pure innocence, joy, and reckless abandonment of one's sel-consciousness. Everyone was different here, and that was okay.
Why isn't life like that now? Just as much beauty, but so much less understanding.

I was 10. Boy, how time flies! I came here after finding myself lost in YouTube for a bit looking at clips of old Nick shows from back then. Damn they played some good stuff. Real cutting-edge, unique, quality programming not like the junk found on Nickelodeon now.
I have a few great memories watching Pete and Pete. I vividly remember watching the episode "O' Christmas Pete" (no, I didn't remember the name, LOL, I had to look it up) one early evening on December 31st, 1996 (so I was 13) before my family and I went to the Rainforest Café for dinner. I remember I got this red skater t-shirt that I was apprehensive about wearing because I'd never worn red before. Hahaha...the stupid sh!t you remember. The night before Christmas I went and saw Scream with my family, too. Oh, here we go down memory lane...LOL
Quit that snifflin' or the boogeyman'll be gettin' ya.
Doubt anybody is reading all of these but I was 12. We watched Nickelodeon all the time.
