"KaBlam!" is one of those shows from one's childhood that makes them realize just how awfully generic and unoriginal today's cartoons are. I was a child of the '90s, and I was fortunate enough to see the boom period of originality happen before my eyes. In my opinion, Nickelodeon hit the jackpot with this cartoon, which was sadly only on for 4 years.Hosted by crudely-animated cartoon hosts Henry and June, two children, "KaBlam!" was a melting pot of animated freedom. Any and all styles were welcome, and they were showcased to their fullest potential. With its first (and best, in my opinion) four segments"Sniz & Fondue", "Action League Now!", "Life with Loopy" and "Prometheus & Bob"each containing two-dimensional and hilarious characters, the show was a goldmine in advancing animation's boundaries.I miss this show a lot. I grew up watching it and looking most forward to the "Action League Now!" more than anything else. It's not on TV, and it's also not on DVD, and that's a crime against humanity. When people think of Nicktoons, they think of great shows like "Rocko's Modern Life" and "Doug" before anything else, but "KaBlam!" is a diamond in the rough. It's timeless and hilarious. Even though most of the later cartoons and shorts that replaced the older ones could be boring, Henry and June more than made up for it. Each character evolved as the seasons continued, and that rarely happens in cartoons.In conclusion, I think "KaBlam!" is one of the most original, funniest and most likable shows ever produced. Not just in the cartoon world, but in general. It makes me wish I had a time machine so I could see these old, great shows again. Nickelodeon needs to get their sh*t together and release this on DVD.

I used to watch this show when I was growing up. When I think about it, I only remember it vaguely. However, if you ask me, it was an okay show. Two things I remember pretty well are the opening sequence and theme song. In addition to that, everyone was ideally cast. Also, the writing was okay. The performances were okay, too. I hope some network brings it back so I can see every episode. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever, even though I don't think I've seen every episode. Now, in conclusion, if some network ever brings it back, I hope that you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.

Any hardcore Nick fan as myself, back in the 90s when the programming was good, would know that Kablam! was the best show on the entire station, topping even the SNL-for-teenagers spin of All That! Kablam featured two animated characters, Henry and June, who hosted a comic book-esquire sketch show featuring regular acts (Life with Loopy, Sniz and Fondue...) with special scripts.The show was humorous to the extent that even as a teenager I long to see the show again. But, like all good comedic shows, Kablam! went down just as SNL and All That did, grabbing for new plots until they cancelled. It was a significant loss to Nickelodeon, which now airs shows that aren't in the least bit nostalgic. But we will always have our memories, I suppose. As cliché as it sounds.

Kablam! was one of Nick's best shows on television for three reasons: it was unique; it was smart; and most importantly, it was funny! The show is much like an anthology with different, off-beat cartoon shorts. The show was hosted by two kids named Henry and June, with a little bit of help from Mr. Bigfoot. The shows that regularly appeared on Kablam were Prometheus and Bob, Life with Loopy, Action League Now!, Sniz & Fondue, and The Off-Beats.Prometheus and Bob is about an alien named, Prometheus recording his studies of educating an caveman named, Bob. The results are painful yet, hilarious! Sniz & Fondue is about two cats (or moles, I forgot what they are) living their weird adventures his their household. They're very Funny to watch! Action League Now! was, by far, Kablam!'s fan favorite hit. Filmed using a unique type of animation called, "Chuckamation", the show featured generic action figures as superheroes trying their best to resolve the troubles caused by 'The Mayor'. This show is truly one of Nick's unsung classics!Be sure to check this show out before it's lost to Nickelodeon's vaults forever!
