The most underrated TV show of the '90s, if not ever. Featuring the greatest character in the history of television: ARTIE! The Strongest Man... in the World!
So ahead of its time this show was so incredibly brilliant I wished I had recognized that when I was a kid and while was on the air. Man how I’d give Klondike bar if this show would come back on the air. At least we have TH-cam to show our kids what can never be duplicated in this computer animated world of today! My kids will grow up knowing that theme song that still warms my heart today. Pete n Pete 🥰🥰
"Funny, Sad, Strange and Beautiful." I never knew this was the set rules. There was great Nick Toons but Pete & Pete was Nickelodeon's master piece in a live action show. It's a true work of art.
This is great! Artie (Toby Huss) and Bus Driver Stu (Damian Young) seem just as cool in real life as they do on the show and I bet they would be a blast to hang out with. Kids shows were so much smarter, weirder and just over all better back then! We need more shows about random, quirky little towns instead of shows about little pop stars and vapid bullshit. I hope there is more of this reunion/behind the scenes stuff to come ;) Keep them coming!
this bring backs great memories of a time when i was young and life was easier and had joy and less sorrow this show always brought me great joy thank you
I'm so glad I live in a time where, even though I am several states away and had no idea this was happening, I can watch it, in it's entirety, a few days later. Thank you.
I am a old man today 52... I was a young dad just out of the NAVY and used being a dad as an excuse to watch the greatest show ever.... "POTATO CHIPS AND HEINZ 57 SAUCE"
I guess Steve Buscemi is too Hollywood to show up for an old obscure Nick show... is a shame I would have loved to see him take part. Would have been cool if Iggy Pop attended too but still a really cool video I'm very glad you posted it. Many thanks from the bottom of my heart!
Everyone watched Pete and Pete. It lost viewership because on a children's network you need little children and sadly everyone was ageing. The big draw with Pete and Pete was that the humor was witty and cheeky while also surreal. It was a children's show that didn't dumb itself down. It spoke to kids as adults. Little Pete was more accomplished and influential than most people ever will be. He also may have peaked to soon.
@@willdpe1256 No the show lost viewership because Nickelodeon stopped airing it in 1999. It was only on reruns for a brief year on The N from 02-03 but you needed digital cable/satellite to watch that.
Funny, sad, strange and beautiful--that was pretty much always MY checklist while watching the show; I never would have imagined the writers actually used that themselves.
Bob Papadopoulos that's a really shitty thing to say.. Those are perfect descriptives for this show, and this person identified with it.. Why does that bother you? Do you realise how sad it is that you're bullying strangers in the comment section 4 years too late on a 90s children's t.v. show's reunion panel on TH-cam?? That is so much more embarrassing, or bizarre, then a person having a checklist for things they enjoy in entertainment..
Except, really, it's not. If you have a checklist for observing a random tv show, that is well bizarre. They may as well be watching with a Bingo card and expecting the characters to randomly call squares.
Bob Papadopoulos First of all, you completely misread the original comment, they were referring only to their feelings about this show. Secondly, just saying 'No I'm Not' isn't an excuse and denial doesn't make bullying any less pathetic.
Bob Papadopoulos Lol. You're missing the point. Flinging around labels like "Autist" prove you have nothing constructive to say, you're just intent on bullying strangers.. Which leads me back to my original comment, What is wrong with you? You're so quick to judge and label others, yet you're obviously the only one with a problem.. It's really sad.
+sakecity7 Artie hasn't had to compete in those for a very long time. He is automatically recognized as such and the competitors are simply trying to be recognized by reaching some fraction of his Strongestness.
I finally got through all of Pete and Pete for the first time. I didn't remember watching all of it as a kid aside from a few episodes and some bits and pieces and tried watching it all in my 20s but got pretty distracted. Now that I have, I'm glad I got to some pretty unique episodes I hadn't seen or remembered, especially the "Pinned" episode. I'm shocked that Endless Mike "killed" those wrestlers but amused at the way they're killed in those cartoonish violent ways that Ren and Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life had. This show is practically a cartoon in live action style with that very otherwordly portait of the everyday world that's seen in Wes Anderson, David Lynch, and Spike Jonze films.
Guess he's not re-uploading it. I "solved" the problem by opening two windows, one for audio and one for video. Just let the audio window get about 4 seconds ahead.
This was nice, but just like the last one, I wish the actors would've been able to talk about their experiences more..like maybe favorite episode they did.
bbarrera86 yea there was nothing i could do about that. still trying to see if i can get a hold of the ppl that did the stream. so get a raw copy. in till then this is better then nothing
I don't understand. You uploaded the video and you don't have a copy? Not sure how that works, but whatever. There are a variety of ways to grab the video off of youtube. Grab it. Resync it. Reupload it. Not hard.
@RePete85 its not that easy to re synch this video.. i got some good news today i will be geting a good copy of this reunion show from one of the creaters... stay tuned!
if you're going to name 8 people on the panel you could go ahead and list the other 5 rather than saying "too many to name" rather than pulling a Gilligan's Island Season 1. But...great show and thanks for posting.
I went to this and it was amazing. Do you also have footage of the Polaris Live show after the Q&A? I was going to record the audio but forgot my recorder in the car...
It would be sick if they did a new series of Pete & Pete w/ all the same cast. Just a adult version where they are in the same city,ect...Both Pete's meet up with Arty @ a bar and conjure up some crazy stuff! Pretty sure people would totat=lly watch/follow that. Not have them as serious drinkers, but occasionally have a few when they are plotting something seriously nut's!
It's interesting to know that even then the big guys at Nick sucked... but somehow shows like this slipped through the cracks. Probably because it took what it could get, which meant shows that took chances. Everything's more homogenized now, just like the execs always wanted.
especially since they don't seem to mean anything particularly extraordinary... i'm still kind of skeptical whether these are the real lyrics or if Danny is just messing with us
We need this On Netflix!!!☝️the greatest children show in the Face of the earth!!!!
Lucho Corona maybe for privileged white boys who think the world revolves around them
@@mikenorm9791 Jesus, let the guy enjoy the show dick.
Completely Lucho I totally agree with ya
Also Kenan and Kel, Sabrina the witch, Arnold, Malcolm in the middle
@@mikenorm9791 What a jerk.
"Funny, sad, strange and beautiful." That is the most accurate description of Pete and Pete I've ever heard.
The most underrated TV show of the '90s, if not ever. Featuring the greatest character in the history of television: ARTIE! The Strongest Man... in the World!
I agree. I watched it all the time and I'm over 40
My childhood hero
The best show of my childhood hands down
Jose Jose your childhood must have suckeddd this show is wack af
@@mikenorm9791 it’s been 3 years, do any growing up in that time or nah?
@@mikenorm9791You haven't grown up it seems.
It's aged like a fine wine. Absolutely brilliant!

In your defense...I mean, if they had actually _aired_ it more than once in a blue moon....
I would give a Blue Tornado for this show to come back.
The symbolism of Artie leaving the show meant that our childhood was over with and it was time to move on. Great show!!
Man I loved this show so much as a kid...

Iceickled712 nick has gone down hill since 1996👻
Best kids show ever. Magic.
That's awesome that Rick Gomez (Endless Mike) showed up for this. He's a pretty big deal.
this bring backs great memories of a time when i was young and life was easier and had joy and less sorrow this show always brought me great joy thank you
I LOVE THE NOSTALGIC COMFORT THIS BRINGS BACK ITS HOME ITS A PRECIOUS FEELING OF MY YOUTH IT CONTAINS WHICH IM ABLE TO RETAIN WHEN I WATCH IT
A very high quality show, very fond memories of it. And it just so happened to captured one of my favourite eras.
This show just meant so much to me.
This was 3 years ago... Wow... now I am starting to get nostalgic for the pete and pete reunion.
+Bishop Coxcomb Wow... and I completely forgot he touched on this exact subject at 7:58.
This has revolutionized my life. As if the show could do that even more than it already has. Awesome.
I'm so glad I live in a time where, even though I am several states away and had no idea this was happening, I can watch it, in it's entirety, a few days later. Thank you.
I live 20 mins from where this happened and I missed this. FML!!!!!!!!!!
Toby Huss is out of his damn mind. National treasure, that man.
I am a old man today 52... I was a young dad just out of the NAVY and used being a dad as an excuse to watch the greatest show ever.... "POTATO CHIPS AND HEINZ 57 SAUCE"

Wow. Thank you so much to everyone involved!
One of the guys from Polaris was my boss for several years. I love this band, this show, all of 'em.
Protip - Open two instances, mute one, and match the video from the muted one to the sound in the second. ENJOY!

The show lost viewership because little kids grow up.

All the classic nick shows died after 99, I remember back then sponge Bob was the newest show out and it was trash and got 0 play
This needs close ups !!!
Pete & Pete would not be as good as it was without Elen. She was our childhood crush.
They need to do a new one. Man we've come a long way with video quality in 15 years LOL!

Someone with video editing skills should download this, resync the audio, and upload it.
Everytime I watch The World's Strongest Man competition I hope to see Artie.
+sakecity7 Artie hasn't had to compete in those for a very long time. He is automatically recognized as such and the competitors are simply trying to be recognized by reaching some fraction of his Strongestness.
anyone wanna see a death battle Artie Vs Saitama the one punch man?? XD
Update Guys ill be Takeing down this video soon... i will be Reuploading a better Copy!
Lies...
Wheres the better copy?
@@jron3571 lol
Ay man.
I think this is the only reunion Alison Fanelli (Ellen) ever did..

Congrats Cinefamily and Pete and Pete!
Its 5.5 seconds off, if you open the same video in another tab and let it play for 5.5 sec then play the other in mute it makes it works.
for large parts, yes. it comes back into sync for a few seconds every once and a while.
WHAT!?!?!?! HOW DID I MISS THIS!! I OWN MY OWN ARNIE DOLL! D':
that show was so good
i wish there was some sort of donation drive we could do to commission a 2hr special that took place 17 years later
petition for pete and pete on netflix?
Loving this, but wish I could see the people on stage a little more clearly. The camera is so zoomed out to see the whole stage.
That band kicked ass.
thank you
Guess he's not re-uploading it. I "solved" the problem by opening two windows, one for audio and one for video. Just let the audio window get about 4 seconds ahead.
Turn off the sound, open a second window with the same video and fast forward 5 seconds. The audio track will be synced :)
This was nice, but just like the last one, I wish the actors would've been able to talk about their experiences more..like maybe favorite episode they did.
That's awesome, I just found out where my screen name came from
Anyone know how many attended this?
My thoughts exactly!!!
I AGREE WITH YOU Roundhouse is an inspiration to me!
JEHMSZ love that show👻
Where´s Michelle Trachtenberg?
alejomp watching with her sister Buffy
Nona ur biz
No Nona?
Rewatching Carnivale and just now realized Stumpy=Artie
that would be cool! Birmingham's BJCC center or Tuscaloosa's amphitheater are epic
so sad the audio is not in phase with the video
bbarrera86 yea there was nothing i could do about that. still trying to see if i can get a hold of the ppl that did the stream. so get a raw copy. in till then this is better then nothing
+MrNickelodeon90 If you still have the original file, I can resync it.
I don't understand. You uploaded the video and you don't have a copy? Not sure how that works, but whatever. There are a variety of ways to grab the video off of youtube. Grab it. Resync it. Reupload it. Not hard.

@CubeGuy nope i dont but i just got some good news iam geting a good copy of this reunion show! stay tuned
yeah the audio's off
in the whole video?
I may have put this on the other reunion video, but I wonder if they've been to Alabama?
yes
please fix the audio
Is the audio off a few seconds?
You can make a drinking game of all the technical and organizational mistakes lol. Still enjoyed it very much.
I wish toby huss would have opened with "hello my little viking "
Polaris was my childhood theme music
the audio is 5 seconds ahead of the video, and thanks for the protip
if you're going to name 8 people on the panel you could go ahead and list the other 5 rather than saying "too many to name" rather than pulling a Gilligan's Island Season 1. But...great show and thanks for posting.
Oh cool. TH-cam needs a way to realign the audio for problems like this.
the sound is off
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome😊
I can’t see them. Zoom, anyone?
Hardy Rawls was awesome!
Is it up?
cant wait!!!
Who uploads a video without syncing the voice track?
i have a good copy comeing in... from the source
@@MrNickelodeon90 where is it?
I went to this and it was amazing. Do you also have footage of the Polaris Live show after the Q&A? I was going to record the audio but forgot my recorder in the car...
Where is Nona, Principal Schwinger, Pitstain, Monica, Wayne the Pain,Bill, Teddy, The crossing guard....
Was a version where the sound was not off ever uploaded?
When will they rerelease in quality format?!
Love Pete and Pete
Alison looks exactly like what Ellen would look like at that age
lol when lil pete picked up big pete
Rick Gomez will forever be George Luz to me.
Ohhh, I missed the Polaris concert =(
I would've like to see Maris Hudson (Monica)
Wow. Nice.
Why didn't you fix it?
Where's Buscemi!? Was he busy? Its not like he did anything after Pete and Pete.
Probably wasn't invited because he was virtually a non-character who only cameo'd from time to time
im making a television series set in the 90s and I want Maronna & Tamberelli to cameo as funny drug dealers.
Yes like five second delay
someone sync this please!

I don't get why the Polaris guy is opposed to people knowing this lyric. It is actually pretty interesting.

Do you mean Artie...?
especially since they don't seem to mean anything particularly extraordinary... i'm still kind of skeptical whether these are the real lyrics or if Danny is just messing with us
YEAH STEVE AND Michelle NEED A SHARE OF TICKET SALES THE 20K NEEDS TO BE DIVIDES TO INCLUDE THEM
