Meet the Minds Behind Your Favorite Nickelodeon Shows

In this reel, we're throwing it back to the '90s when Nickelodeon dominated our Saturday mornings. We meet with the creator of "Clarissa Explains It All," the songwriter from the everyone's favorite game show, "Guts," and took a trip back to "Gullah Gullah Island."

This story is a part of our Human Condition series. Come along and let us connect you to some of the most peculiar, stirring, extraordinary, and distinctive people in the world.

Disappointed that John Kricfalusi (of Ren and Stimpy fame) declined to be interviewed. He's quite the character.
