Title: Anyone catch the Double Dare ep of The Goldbergs?
Post by: weaklink75 on January 21, 2016, 11:23:43 AM

This aired last night- I thought it was a nice homage (cute fact that the people that played the DD casting directors were played be two people who actually appeared on DD that the creator of the Goldbergs knew), and I'm not gonna be nitpicky about things.

I noticed that the Obstacle Course props were all slightly different from those featured on the actual show (Pick It looked like it was made out of cardboard, the Sundae Slide seemed less strurdy, shorter). Could these be the same props used on the Nickelodeon road shows back in the 90's? It would seem odd and wasteful to build them all from scratch when they should still be in storage from DD2000.
