You’ve already covered a lot of the shows from my era of Nick Jr. Eureeka’s Castle, Adventures of the Little Koala, and The Elephant Show. But one show I always loved was “Little Bear.” Very imaginative and told a lot without using words.
Blue's Clues is my biggie, for sure, but I'll be happy to see most of the stuff that aired on the block circa 1999-2003 get their time in the spotlight since that's the era I have the most personal nostalgia for
Whichever one where you also cover the block's rebranding where they made the channel's mascot Face. Fascinated with the creative intent behind that one, would love to know more of how they came to decide that.
Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics and Papa Beaver's Storytime are my top 2. Most of the rest of the shows I've seen from Nick Jr have already been covered. I remember watching Grimm's though. Especially "Jorinde and Joringel".
Gullah Gullah Island is really fascinating to me for cultural reasons and also the setting. But it's also interesting to me in that, it kind of seems like Nick's answer to Barney, but very different
Gullah Gullah Island! I LOVED it as a kid. Still sing the theme song sometimes!
Also excited to learn about Face, who was probably my favorite thing about Nick Jr. growing up. I had a big love for the weird mascots like Face and Stick Stickly and definitely want to know about their history.
Its a tie between Blue's Clues & Dora the Explorer, both are iconic Nick Jr shows for me as I watched them during my pre-school years, even have a Blue's Clues VHS tape. Dora is more memorable for me thou, as I feel like I watched that more than Blue's.
I honestly didn't watch a lot of Nick Jr. growing up, but I caught a lot of it secondhand when my younger brother was the appropriate age. Those two always stuck out to me as being really well-made.

Today's Spe--dang it!

Hh...I can't think of any I grew up with that you haven't already covered....
I wanna say...Zoobilee Zoo, but I'm not sure that was ever on Nick...🤔
I guess maybe the ones my kids grew up with, Blue's Clues, Dora, Wonderpets, etc.
Or Little BIll in a train wreck kinda way.

or maybe Dora the Explorer.
LazyTown would surely be a great one, but is too far out.
Both are nostalgic to me thou
Otherwise, I'll be basic and say Blue's Clues.
