From http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/03/10/te...ing-exclusive/ :

If you�re a twentysomething who�s been jonesing for repeats of All That and Clarissa Explains it All, then this news is for you: EW has learned exclusively that starting this fall, TeenNick will dust off old faves like Rugrats, Kenan & Kel, Pete & Pete, The Amanda Show, All That and Clarissa and air them in a new midnight-to-2 a.m. programming block dubbed (appropriately enough) The �90s Are All That. The tween cabler came up with the idea after seeing the huge interest in early Nickelodeon programming on social media sites. There are several Facebook pages � followed by millions of fans � that are devoted to Nickelodeon shows from the �90s.

�At the time, we were completely devoted to that audience ages 9, 10, and 11,� Keith Dawkins, senior VP and general manager of TeenNick, tells EW. �It was ground-breaking and for the young viewers, a powerful and pivotal time in their lives. Those kids who are now 22, 23 and 24 want to bring that back.�

Over time, TeenNick hopes to use the retro block to showcase other �90s programming and movies. So if you didn�t get a chance to see Good Burger then�
