am i the only one who dont understand what so funny about it? when i watched it on tv, kids seems to enjoy that. but i dont think its funny at all. even back when i was a kid, i still dont laugh at that jokes. too corny. but their cartoon shows, like spongebob, fairly odd parents, etc, is very funny. i still laugh to it until now.
When I was younger and watch Nickelodeon I thought it was a really stupid idea lol and didn't ever want to be covered in the green slime. But I guess it amuses younger kids.
I'm honestly stunned they're still doing it. It's actually a callback from one of the first shows shown on Nickelodeon called "You Can't Do That on Television" (which originally aired on Canadian TV). Two running bits on the show: every time somebody said "water" (or "wet"), they'd pour water on their head, and anytime someone said "I don't know", they'd pour this green slime down on them.

If somebody happened to say that word, a duck would drop from the ceiling clutching some money, and that money would be handed to the contestant. From time to time, they'd swap out the duck for something else. In this particular case, a suit of armor.

I never really found the whole slime thing entertaining either. I just don't get what is so appealing about being covered in it....
Its not all that funny when everyone knows they're going to do it. However, if its a surprise on an unsuspecting person then it is kind of funny.
