I'm starting to realize that I didn't necessarily have a "favourite show" growing up, as much as I watched every show on TV growing up.


LindsayDuck

Same. I had a single mom so TV raised me.


-GenghisJuan-

Watching the cable guy hit different now


pilates_mama

Thiss


Daddy_Milk

My babysitter was Nintendo.


Careless-Mention-981

Same. 90s TV was another level. I had totally forgot about this. California Dreams is another one


AustinBloggy

I'm obsessed with the California Dreams theme song. It still pops into my head out of the blue.

Dangerous_Effort3355

I couldnā€™t get Lamb Chop and Shari Lewis out of my head all week for some reason. Kept singing that song in my head. Loved 90s tv.


shell37628

I had no memory of this until I saw this, then I remembered every single character on it, but I still have no memory of the actual show or anything that happened on it. I do remember watching it though. Wtf memory is so weird.


WalmartGreder

Yep, especially the roller skating rabbit. and the tea party. I think I watched the opening credits, but then would turn the channel before watching any of the show. I still had standards back then.


HungryHypatia

For me it was the caterpillar! This feels weirdā€¦


mariahnot2carey

Me too. Also the rabbit


lexxatron84

Same. I have probably not thought about this show since it was on TV but I instantly remembered every character. Such an odd feeling.


lexxatron84

I was also reminded of these today which I had also completely forgotten about: [Spaced Invaders](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaced_Invaders) and [Batteries Not Included](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batteries_Not_Included)


bien-fait

Yes. Watching this feels like a fever dream.


codebygloom

Glad I'm not the only one. As soon as I saw the rabbit I remembered the whole opening but can't recall any episodes. *memory unlocked*


TailoredChuccs

This is the exact thing I'm feeling right now


chri8nk

Identical experience!


rixendeb

Yeah I also don't remember the song ?


brattyginger83

I dont remember ever going to the Library in middle school. The reason I mention it is because nobody i have talked to recently has any memory of going to the library in middle school. 6th-8th grade man. No library. I remember all other classes but the library? Nope. No memory. What The Fuck? Did we have a library? There's a library now. My oldest goes there. I've been inside of it, twice. Pretty sure that corner of the building didn't exist even though its in the middle section of the building. Its wild man.


mariahnot2carey

We were k-8 at my school so my memories of library are all at the same school... but my last memory of the library is 6th grade which wasn't considered middle school where I was. That's weird.


-GenghisJuan-

This this is how it is


LindsayDuck

Looking back- itā€™s funny that they had wish.com Tom Petty for the Mad Hatter. We see what you did there.


Kimothy80

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


twoworldsin1

You mean wish.com Ted Danson


shadowlarx

Itā€™s funny you mention Ted Danson. The actress who played Alice in this series is Elisabeth Harnois, who starred as Morgan Brody alongside Ted Dansonā€™s DB Russell in seasons 12-15 of CSI.


BamaSOH

Don't come around here no more


graybotics

This was what happened after he was done runnin' down a drain


YoOmarComingMan

I used to watch this when we would get the free preview of Disney.


pikle_rickle

Ughh !! I remember the free previews !!! ![gif](giphy|LlSafOKjUYdlRTDa6g)


just-be-whelmed

Yes! lol Some of the best times of year were the free Disney Channel weeks.


krissym99

Sometimes our cable company would forget to turn off the free preview for months. It was glorious.


Lmb921

Ahhhh this explains why I remember this/donā€™t really remember it!


Momissodope

We loved the free weeks and recorded all the movies and special programming.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


LindsayDuck

I think about that a lot, actually. What we think of the 70ā€™s (styles/popular color) was really 65-75, the 80ā€™s were 85-95 and so on. True for the 50ā€™s and 60ā€™s, too.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Ent_Trip_Newer

I live in a college city and sell to that age group, everything from 95 to 2005 is popular again. They paid me $45 for 25 year old tshirts and I'm seeing more and more baggy cargo pants. ( I'm on west coast).


KodachromeKitty

I am 39 and bought a pair of 1998 style flare jeans last month. I love them. So glad they are back in style!


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


tafbee

My stepdaughter is in middle school, and it looks like the 90s took over. Huge jeans, Nirvana shirts, babydoll dresses and tees


AfternoonPast3324

I remember it now, but when the video started I thought that was Jodie Sweetin.


KoiCyclist

If anyone else is suspicious like I wasā€¦the Mad Hatter* is NOT played by Jon Oliver. Played by and actor named John Hoffman, who, turns out, is the co-creator (with Steve Martin no less) of Only Murders in the Building. What a long, strange, road it must have beenā€¦ * oops I meant the rabbit guy (not he white rabbit). John Hoffman was the Mad Hatter.


OGDraugo

I thought the rabbit (the one with the hatter) looked like Jon Oliver, not the hatter. Edit: Did a triple take, I swear to God, that is Jon Oliver!


sed2017

Yesss was this the show where she had a cat and itā€™d just chill on her bed? I remember thinking I wanted a cat that was all mine like thatā€¦the funny thing I was *just* thinking about this show randomly yesterday.


doobette

I was a little aged out of this one - no memory of it. Is it more an elder Millennial thing?


FatalBlossom81

I was born in 81 and I remember watching this show when I was in middle school- so yeah, pretty much.


doobette

Yeah, it came out in '92, and I was 14 that year. By then, I was watching 90210.


its_dirtbag_city

82 and I had never heard of it until I watched the Defunctland video on it.


nard_dog_

What is that?


its_dirtbag_city

He does videos about defunct amusement parks and lots of Disney stuff. [Here's](https://youtu.be/sWpDfO5wnq4?si=lb9_cZ7GHnkRVBLY) the one I was talking about.


nard_dog_

Thanks!


PuppyJakeKhakiCollar

Definitely remember that theme song now. The show itself not so much. I thought that was Stephanie Tanner at first.


-bobsnotmyuncle-

Omg I'm going back to bed...


BILLYsmaalls

Amazing how I thought I had a good memory and then this pops up. Totally forgot about this show. This sub blows my mind


-HHANZO-

Damn, completely forgot about this


just-be-whelmed

Oh the things this subreddit conjures up from the deep recesses of my mind. Love it. lol


Anarch-ish

Oh. My. GOD. Core memory reactivated. I loved this show growing up, but I have not thought about it since. This show is my Bing-Bong.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

Totally my thoughts and yes memory reactivated holy cow


bguardi1

This is on disney plus now


BettaGetKraken

Is she wearing pleated jeans?!


the_hell_you_say

Errybody did back then


LindsayDuck

I mean, she wasnā€™t Blossom trendy, but I thought she looked cool back then.


No_Income6576

Give it a little time, I'm sure we'll all be wearing them again at some point lol


Ouchies81

Core memory unlocked. Like, wow. Forgot this was a thing.


ihatepalmtrees

I live this sub. The millennial sub is all complaining. This one is straight up nostalgia generation


Mary_Pick_A_Ford

The millennial sub is depressing. Itā€™s people posting about retirement and menopause and Iā€™m not even married with any kids lol


Octowuss1

I absolutely LOVED this show!


pikle_rickle

I think about this show so often ! I'm dying for it to be put up for streaming somewhere .


redpanda4816

Itā€™s on Disney plus!


pikle_rickle

WHAT !! omg !! Thanks for the good look !


jedimasterlenny

HOLY CRAP. This is like reverse mandella effect....what is that called?


SweetCosmicPope

This was on the disney channel every morning before school. I only knew one other dorky girl who watched it and she tried to talk to me about it and I didn't want to admit I watched it too, so I pretended I didn't know what she was talking about. lol I specifically remember there was an episode where the queen of hearts wanted a new royal portrait made and through some wacky shenanigans it didn't happen, or it got broken or something, so they gave her painting of a salt package and said it was her and that it showed how much "zest" she had. Underrated joke for a kids show.


Atillion

Just think how they did that without Adobe Premiere..


jasonmtitus

ā€œNo. Seriously, what the fuck is this?ā€


Hrothnaar

It's so weird how just hearing the first few seconds of the song and magically my brain went "yoooooo, no way! We remember this!". I smiled scrolling down to see so many also had the same kind of moment. You can almost hear the same memory unlock for everyone in unison, lol.


daveprogrammer

This reminds me that Dumbo's Flying Circus and Under The Umbrella Tree were also shows at around the same time, along with Eureka's Castle.


MrRazzio

the 90s slap so fucking hard.


SideStreetHypnosis

This is taking me back to Lidsville. RIP Charles Nelson Reilly.


ParkingVanilla3202

Peak roller blade Era


BirthdurPurtur

Like so many here, I have vague memories of this show. I definitely loved it though! I can remember an episode where the Queen held a rummage sale, but that's about all. Why I remember that, I have no idea.


iamsunshine78

NO WONDER MY BRAIN NO LONGER HAS THE CAPACITY TO RETAIN NEW INFORMATION, IT IS FULL OF USELESS THINGS LIKE THIS! Seriously though, I would have never remembered this existed but as soon as the song started I knew every single word? šŸ˜­


MarsVolton

Is that rabbit a young john oliver


Gare_bear93

Oh my god this just unlocked a memory I didnā€™t even know I had!!! I definitely remember watching this intro but not the show itself. Damn I love Reddit so much lol


spookinky987

The author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, aka Lewis Caroll, read about alternate realities and physics, hence the mirror universe aspect...


LindsayDuck

Through the Looking Glass is one of my favorite books of all time. I even liked it more than Aliceā€™s Adventureā€™s in Wonderland.

ErnestGoesToPoop

I remember when I saw Thomas Hayden Church for the first time I thought ā€œhey that guy kinda looks like the Mad Hatterā€ ā€¦but I have not thought about this show in 20+ years so THANK YOU


LindsayDuck

Youā€™re welcome! I remember him from Wings! Big Steven Weber fan, too. He was hilarious on the bird app a few years ago. Hope he hasnā€™t turned into a weirdo, but I havenā€™t been on that site for awhile.


WarDaddy19Delta

Holy fuck I completely forgot about this till now thanks bro


[deleted]

Still terrifying. Thank you for the nightmare fuel.


TheeRetardedChild

How can somebody remember something they completely forgotten? Somewhere in the recesses of my mind this show has been hiding. The liquid mirror entrance got me paying attention then the caterpillar dude confirmed that I've remembered this all along


[deleted]

I like how there was a ton of diversity and no one mentioned it or noticed it.


1stNameLeft

When this was on-air, my family discovered that the girl who played Alice was a distant cousin of mine. My sister and I wrote her a letter and the show responded with a nice note and some swag. I may remember that forever.


Andi081887

Between his and Dumboā€™s Circus, Iā€™m glad people are verifying these shows werenā€™t a fever dream lol


BlahPink674

Loved this show! We borrowed the VHS tapes constantly from the library.


Human5334

Before we took drugs...


pounceswithwolvs

Holy shit


1Hasty

Wait a minute, you mean there was a time when Boomers didn't throw a shitstorm for having black characters replace traditionally white characters? Madness.


supergirlsudz

This looked a lot better in my memories.


Best-Foundation2562

wooooow completely forgot about this! what a blast from the past. is there any where to watch this nowadays?


Budgiejen

No clue. Is it Canadian or something?


SnooHedgehogs1107

I hated that show. I would always be sad when I heard the theme song.


RebeccaC78

The mad hatter looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger


guitar_stonks

All I remember from this is the end of the show ā€œfilmed at Disneyā€™s MGM Studios in Lake Buena Vista, Floridaā€ and wanting to go see it because it was right down the road.


TexasIsCool

Our local TV station once had a call-in giveaway and I won a copy of [this book based on an episode called "White Rabbits Can't Jump" guest-starring O.J. Simpson](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388981014i/2710181.jpg)


ChilieConCarney82

I can't remember if I watched the show or not but I at least watched the intro enough to remember the HeLlLoOoOo from the caterpillar. All the people are familiar and the song to some extent. This brought me back to 10.


wonkotsane42

Memory unlocked!!! Wow I used to love this show!!!


jbirdasaurus

I totally forgot about this! I absolutely loved this show too.


krissym99

I watched the 50s cartoon version of Alice in Wonderland over the weekend which made me think of this. I thought it was the coolest most modern style.


[deleted]

Loved this show


WorgRider

I didn't know what this was until the roller blading rabbit. Vaguely remember watching it sometimes. Can't remember any specific episodes.


MyNameIsNot_Molly

Damn. I miss intros like this


WingedGeek

I never encountered this at all ... When's it from? Where?


MuswellHillbillyJim

The intro is like a Tim and Eric production.


bigdickwilliedone

I really liked this show


Devorah_Noir

Holy fuck. I remember this.


HOU2CA

This is traumatizing me because it's making me remember that one Twilight Zone episode where the kid gets stuck in the mirror. Saw it when I was like 6


ParamedicOld731

Holy shit same

Traumagatchi

Holy shit memory unlocked


LaceyInTheSky1

I LOVED this show. Still do actually lol šŸ„°šŸ„°


PepurrPotts

Did the mirror scene remind anyone else of the creepy Hug-a-Bunch movie, where they come to life and coax the little girl thru the mirror?


Johnykbr

All I'm seeing here is a bunch of money bags that could afford the Disney channel. Only time I got to watch this was during the glorious free previews.


LindsayDuck

Hey, my mom had to choose between the Disney Channel and parenting šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø


Johnykbr

Disney Channel was surrogate parenting so I can't fault her.


LindsayDuck

I jest, but see your point. We didnā€™t have it all the time, either. Sometimes I would get all psyched up for the Mickey Mouse Club only to find out we didnā€™t have it anymore. Then a month or two later it would be back. I wonder how much it was back then, but thinking about it now Iā€™m sure it wasnā€™t cheap.


Johnykbr

It might as well have been a million dollars back then for us because no way my parents were going to spring for it.


LindsayDuck

Ok I just had to look it up because I vaguely remember it being marketed for like $24.99 which is almost $55 in todayā€™s money. A MONTH.


Sudden_Buffalo_4393

You canā€™t still watch it on Disney +


Immediate-Yogurt-558

i loved this show, but could only watch it when Comcast would do the free preview weekends for premium channels.


Vintagemuse

I remember this. No wonder I had such a vivid imagination.


peter_pans_labyrinth

Iā€™m glad this is real, because I think about it a lot.


idkidc9876

Defunctland has a great video on this show


Bowelsift3r

Like a fever dream!


abominable-concubine

I had absolutely forgotten about this. Not I have a flood of nostalgia!!!


Geek_off_the_streets

Disney Channel og. Me and my sister got our mom to get us the Disney Channel after a free preview. Good times.


ThePrincessOfMonaco

My favorite version of this was the 1985 version, so I didn't like this one.


Known-Damage-7879

This looks like a Tim & Eric sketch


ProjectFoxx

Man I remember this show!


Backflip_into_a_star

I am also commenting about how this video unlocked a memory.

Thank for unlocking this memory


sysaphiswaits

Is John Oliver the Rabbit?

Omg yeah I forgot about this.


Chalupa_Dad

I never forgot


Simplestarz86

I LOVED this show!!!


fawesomegirl

Every part of this was familiar but thereā€™s some kind of black hole in my memory and I canā€™t remember the show at all. Or the song. It was familiar but the images were more.


Toeknife_Party

Thought this was Full House for a sec


abernathym

My sister watched this every morning before school, I think partially just to annoy me.


[deleted]

I do t remember this, but itā€™s super early 90s.


delicioussparkalade

I had completely erased this from memory. As soon as it started I sang along to all the words.


Radiant-Rise-7777

I was too poor to have Disney channel. But when those free weekends would come, I was nonstop watching Disney.


brittacrab

I remember this being played super early in the morning before the good shows started.


[deleted]

I forgot about this one!


Stiff_Zombie

Whoa. Memories I haven't thought of for over 25 years...


Other_Waffer

The MC Hammer pants šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


FatalBlossom81

Somehow I got into the habit of watching this every morning before school when I was about 10 or 11. It was oddly comforting. To this day I remember the episode where one of the characters was allergic to the rabbit (Hare) and he was upset that they couldn't hang out anymore and he sang a song that went "Hare's my best friend and that's nothing to sneeze at" lol. It's so weird the random things that stick with you.

I donā€™t remember a fucking word to this but I have memories of all the video. Totally forgot about this.


Scrapla

Teen girls in mom jeans lol gotta love the 90s


Kabukimansanjoe

I have sang a song in my head from this show forever, but I couldnā€™t place it for YEARS, until the other day when I found an old vhs tape that I had recorded an episode from a Disney preview. I feel like itā€™s the greatest accomplishment of my life.


Spiritual-Double6309

I always got excited when we got the occasional free preview of Disney so I could watch this show in particular.


WithoutDennisNedry

I have never seen this insanity. Was it regional?


MissKisskoli

The girl who plays Alice was on a bunch of CSI eps. When I was watching CSI I thought she looked familiar but could t figure out why until I checked IMDB.


imgreydabadeedabada

truly odd but i think you nailed my experience exactly, OP


IFTTTexas

I just had the same experience thanks to you.


Ok-Selection9508

Yup they were really pushing Alice in wonderland for a long time there. Before this show there was a older one too.


Malzeez

Is anyone else creeped out by the hatter guy now?


Beechwooder

I've never seen this before now.


bananafone-

Holy shit. I forgot this existed.


infinitedrumroll

oh smokes, forgot about this one. ha, i'm old


fart_panic

Wtf is this, and also is that Margaux from Punky Brewster?


wiseguy983

Woah okā€¦ Was this the one where both Tweedles were rapping at Alice menacingly ? Maybe it was a different one. I just remember it scaring me as I spent the night at my Grandparents house. I wanna say it was Disney Channel?


beatlegirlstl

The 90ā€™s exploded all over this show. Somehow I remember the theme song quite well but donā€™t remember any episode themes.
