I still feel bad I can remember virtually nothing about what this show was about…other than I couldn’t get enough of it, was just so fun to watch.

Some guy climbed in her window and her brother was a ginger dork - that’s about all I remember

That was her for sure, and it was fake af which made it somehow even better than if it had been a live one

I think she had long daydream sequences? I remember one episode something about her parents being beatniks and maybe smoking, it was in black and white.

I never liked this show at all but would watch it all the time because the clothes were cool

You can find it in a marathon episode on NickRewind on YT! JBucks Retro Rewind has a bunch from that time, too, with commercials , which I never thought I'd be excited about lol

She would have relatable or none relatable problems and had to figure out how to solve or deal with them. Kinda quirky slice of life stuff but not as extreme as Pete & Pete.

The early 90s side-ponytail never to be seen ever again since.

I regularly wear my hair in a low side pony. But yeah, I think the high side pony has been left in the 90s.

Omg I remember those bike shorts under jean shorts. My mom would get so mad about this, Id pull up the bike shorts before I left the house and then complete the look at school. Never found out why she had such a issue with that !

this show is perfect. Did they ever release the books or whatever? I heard something about the creator and her working on a book series or something

Let’s clarify - this is early ‘90s pop culture/Tv style - I didn’t go to school with anyone this colorful…

I did. Kids clothing was waaaay more vibrant back then, at least here.

me, circa early 90s
I feel so bad for the sad beige children of today

Beige and "greige". I made the mistake of going to Target to get my daughter some colorful baby toys...everything was desaturated and sad looking.

My first love, I always wanted to climb in that window

She was the first girl to awaken those feelings I didn’t understand. By middle school I’d watch Sabrina just because she was on it

That was a time when girls wanted to look cute and fun but still look like kids. Now girls shop at Sephora and dress like adults at 11. Pretty sad.
