There was nothing quite like kicking back and relaxing while you watch the newest episode of Hey Arnold! after a long day at the park with your closest friends. Dad had burgers going in the backyard while Mom made some freshly-squeezed lemonade that reminded you of home. Those were the days!

Nickelodeon, home to some of the most nostalgic television shows of the '90s, isn't what it used to be. Now, that might have something to do with the fact that the 90s were three decades ago… But let's not think about that right now. Instead, let's look back and reflect on how great these shows made our childhoods. Tommy Pickles from Rugrats was our best friend on Sunday mornings and Rocko from Rocko's Modern Life was our trusted Aussie pet. Nothing else in the world mattered when our comfort shows were flashing their technicolor hues on our tiny little television screens, and in that moment, life was simple.

If you're looking for a little simplicity in your life today, scroll below and prepare for some nostalgia overload.

It's not fun to think about the fact that we're adults now. I look at kids today and want to shake them while urging them to stop growing up so fast, but isn't that how it always goes? When you're 10, you want to be 21. When you're 21, you want to be 5. If only we knew what we had when we had it…
