Sorry about that, I hope that block comes to Nickelodeon UK since we have no TeenNick here.
shareLet's just hope that it will be shown on other TeenNicks across the globe too.
The date set for it is now October 2011.

At the moment, I only know of a Dutch TeenNick channel outside the US. They already have a little bit of a 90s vibe going, with reruns of "Kenan & Kel" and "Saved By The Bell".

I've been in touch with Victor Coolman (a name to conjure with), head of programming for Nickelodeon North Europe and project manager for Nick Jr. Global, and he told me that the "90's Are All That" specials have to do with nostalgia for TV shows programmed at that time, so not with shows like "Pete & Pete" or "Clarissa Explains It All" if they didn't air yet in your country.
This means P&P won't be shown again outside the US, perhaps with the exception of the UK - if I'm right the UK did get some of P&P?
It's only if the series in this slot overall are hugely successful again that they may be thinking of programming other, 'unknown' series, so I think the prospects are bad for reruns of P&P .

We certainly did get Pete & Pete and Clarrisa Explains It All on Nickelodeon UK and all most all of the classics currently airing on Teen Nick in the states.
Thanks for the reply Dicky
Thanks! Well, I do hope that these shows will be aired on TeenNick UK then - if that's still on! And if they're successful in the UK, they may be reconsidering their programming on the Continent.
I also pointed out that most Clarissa and P&P fans are desperate for full official releases of the series and soundtracks, and while I'm not really counting on that, successful reruns might get us a bit closer to achieving that.
Good luck,
Dicky
We are lacking a TeenNick here sadly. But here is hoping for a late night airing on Nickelodeon UK.
Thanks.
