I finally watched that weird 90s show my friend kept pushing

Was totally skeptical about 'Space Cases' on Nickelodeon, thought it was just a cheap kids' sci-fi knockoff. The episode where the crew gets trapped in a sentient nebula that feeds on their memories actually had some solid writing. Anyone else remember this one or have another forgotten 90s gem?

That sentient nebula episode really stuck with me too. It makes you wonder how many other shows from that era had surprisingly deep ideas hidden under the cheap sets. I spent a whole summer trying to find something as weirdly good, and it led me to "The Odyssey," that Canadian show about the boy in a coma world.

The Odyssey actually started in 1992, which puts it a bit later than most of those classic cheap-set shows. You're right though, nancy351, it had that same weird depth with its coma world idea. It's a shame more people don't remember it.
