>>212108421I was there (quite elderly now, age 50). Nick in the early 80s was this, Pinwheel (a rollup of cheap Canadian and off-brand cartoons and puppet skits), random specials, rock concerts (I first learned the Who existed from their farewell concert special that was advertised constantly), weird Brit or Canadian live-action kinda scary shit (to 8 year old me, anyway, Tomorrow People or Quatermass, etc).
Mid/late 80s they went to Nick at Nite after 6 or 7 PM which was cool, got to jerk off to Donna Reed while I was entering puberty.
