By The Way (Part Two) - Nick Knacks Episode #004.5
🕑 Added 2019-01-04 00:31:46 +0000 UTCWe never thought we'd find it, but here it as, actual footage of By The Way, one of Nickelodeon's premiere shows in 1979. We learn exactly what the show was, who Josie was, and just what role it filled for Nick forty years ago.

Since I just came to this channel this week, I watched 4 and 4.5 back to back. I'm 42, which means I was 3 when this show stopped airing. I had really vague memories of Josie--her hair, the fact that her bits were not exactly mime but very low-verbal and mimey, and the name--but not of the actual show or its name. Pre-1984 stuff is what I'm most interested in, because that's the stuff I watched every day but which never got rerun when I was old enough to have super clear memories of it. Thanks for putting this together; now that Bob and Henry alerted me to your existence I'm really happy to be a patron even if you're wrong about Dynaman (the comedy isn't in Canadians doing fake Asian accents, it's in Canadians doing fake Yiddish accents and syncing Sentai fight scenes to 1983 pop hits, dammit).
