"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 To Develop Movie Based on “Legends of The Hidden Temple”

As a part of Nickelodeon’s plan to expand its programming within the next couple of years, the kids' network will roll out a series of new television shows and movies including All In, a reality docu-series featuring Cam Newton; Crashletes, a clip show filled with crazy viral sports videos; a two-part Hey Arnold! movie and a live-action TV movie based on the classic 90’s game show Legends of The Hidden Temple. The movie’s plot line is similar to the original series where three siblings face a series of obstacles to remain alive in the mystifying, mysterious temple. During their daring journey, they will encounter various elements seen on the original show including Olmec to reveal the secrets behind the temple, The Steps of Knowledge and cameos from a green monkey, red jaguar, silver snakes (and probably temple guards and hopefully Kirk Fogg), to name a few. The movie is scheduled to air late 2016.
