"Double Dare" Returns To Nickelodeon For One-Episode Special In November

In addition to debut of the new Legends of The Hidden Temple movie – which now has a confirmed date of November 26 – Nickelodeon is also bringing back Double Dare next month for a one-off retrospective special. The half-hour episode airs November 23 in honor of the show’s 30th anniversary and features host Marc Summers, announcer (John) Harvey and Robin Marella reminiscing about the series. Viewers will also have a chance to watch exclusive behind-the-scenes content, vintage footage and new games taped earlier this year. 

Nickelodeon's The Splat Celebrates 30th Anniversary of “Double Dare”

TeenNick’s late night throwback programming block, The Splat, is celebrating the pearl anniversary of Nickelodeon’s first and longest-running game show by hosting a live edition at San Diego Comic-Con on July 22 and airing reruns of various incarnations of Double Dare on the network beginning July 25. Double Dare will be officially turning 30 on October 6. At Comic-Con, Marc Summers returns to host the live nighttime event. Lucky fans will be able to watch teams compete in trivia and physical stunt rounds in hopes of advancing to the famous Obstacle Course to take on classic challenges including Down The Hatch”, “The Wringer” and the seemingly impossible “Pick It”. The exhibition will be streamed live on The Splat’s Facebook page beginning at 9:30pm PT (12:30am ET). The Double Dare event is part of Nickelodeon’s activities at Comic-Con, which will also include a "25-year retrospective of Nickelodeon animation" panel, a "women in animation" panel and a "Back to the ‘90s reunion" panel.
