nickelodeon started showing its old 90's shows late at night, and having watched them a couple times back then, i wanted to check them out again and relive a little bit of my youth. i tried 'all that' which really sucked, and 'clarissa explains it all'. i remember this one kinda being for girls, but that didnt stop me from watching it from time to time back in the day! rewatching it now i was surprised at how fun it is! the show follows clarissa as she deals with her family and pesky brother with the help of her best friend sam. the fun part of the show is that clarissa talks straight to the camera and shares whats on her mind. melissa joan hart is a lot of fun as clarissa, but my favorite character is her little know-it-all brother ferguson. the stories are very simple and rarely leave the confines of their house, which leads to the four family members very well fleshed out and the show actually has some pretty good character writing. over the course of the summer i'm pretty sure we watched all 65 episodes that were created! its a simple show for teens, but its still quite fun for those of us who left those teen years decades ago.
