I thought that stuff didn't exist until the show came along and Nick 
was desperate to find *something* to market off it! Wonder what they 
used before....and why they issued red, not green, uniforms to the 
kids on "Double Dare".

THREE SEPARATE TIMES!?! Or just once, with three takes. (Never 
mind...now I remember, it was three times!

I was watching the show once and my mom commented that you could tell 
the kids liked what they were doing. Also, it seems like there are no 
former YCDTOTVers in jail, rehab or on the talk show circuit...

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the slime they used 
on "civilians" was just colored applesauce. Of course, I also heard 
that they built Nick Studios in Florida to be close to a large source 
of naturally occuring green slime.
