What is the strangest television show you remember from your childhood?

As a kid of the 70’s, there are so many to choose from. I think this one wins for me though.

There were a number of shows on Nickelodeon that I thought were normal at the time that as an adult I’m learning how dark and bizarre they were. The first two that come to mind are Ren and Stimpy and Rocko’s Modern Life.

@Theyitis My son used to watch I carly, then we all found out later how creepy the show really was.

@Adrift iCarly? I wasn’t aware of anything creepy about that one. Care to elaborate?

@Theyitis look up the Dan Schneider scandals some of the scenes on that show were questionable and creepy.

@Adrift Investigative Discovery did a special last year about the dark side of Nickelodeon tv. Many of these former child actors stated their experiences with Dan Schneider and other producers weren't pleasant at all. Even iCarly co-star Jeanette McCurdy exposes her personal nightmare working on the show and with Dan Schneider.

@Theyitis to be fair ren and stimpy wasn’t originally meant for kids. It was originally an adult cartoon that they just edited some of the scenes out and let kids watch.
