"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.

The idea for this show is really genius. It's about a comic book with hosts Henry and June who flip the page to the different comic sections. The regular segments on this strange anthology show were Action League Now!, a superhero show with action figures as the main characters. Life with Loopy, a stop motion cardboard segment about the adventures of a little girl, narrated by her older brother. Sniz and Fondue, a traditionally animated segment about two cats (?) that get in to mischief. Promethius and Bob was a claymated segment about an alien trying to teach a caveman. The Off-Beats was an occasional segment that resembled the Peanuts. This show was just really great. The Henry and June segments had this horrible animation that worked so perfectly, and my personal favorite other segment was the very imaginative Life with Loopy. Try to find this classic Nick show.

Kablam! was one of the funniest animated shows I've ever seen. Very creative and diverse. A lot of people involved. Great writing and concepts. From "Prometheus and Bob", about an alien trying to show a caveman how to live, to "Sniz and Fondue", great voices and great animation style. Wait! There's "Life with Loopy", a sort of paper cut-out animation, "Action League, NOW", animated dolls often done in by the Evil Mayor which sounded a bit like Ronald Reagan. I guess some people didn't get it. But my kids and I REALLY miss it! Ernie Kovacs would be proud.I wonder why a collection of these shows has not been put up for sale (at least I am unaware of any). I think Nickelodeon still airs it at various times, but I never get to see it. Nickelodeon, if you're listening, market the whole series in a DVD. I guarantee brisk sales.NOW do I have enough lines for a submission?

This is as fun as Liquid TV, better than cartoon sushi, and has a lot of the same animators. Favorites would be Life with Loopy, Sniz and Fondue, and Prometheus and Bob. Check it out on Nickelodeon!!!
