inMy old DVD player finally quit, which sent me on a weird trip down memory lane for a show called 'The Adventures of Pete & Pete'
That show was actually pretty forgettable compared to other 90s Nick shows. The weirdness felt forced and the episodes dragged on. It's no surprise it's mostly forgotten now.
