When it comes to children’s TV, few shows left more of a lasting impression than Hey Arnold!
The Nickelodeon series, which ran from 1996-2004, dealt with themes of poverty and addiction within the framework of an animated kids’ show, and many moments have stuck with its viewers.

The classic cartoon is due to return in two new TV movies, while lead characters Arnold and Gerald will get another new home…on the jerseys of two minor league baseball teams.
Arnold will adorn the Frederick Keys’ jersey, with Gerald taking his place on that of the Lynchburg Hillcats.
It’s part of the Keys’ ’90s Nickelodeon Night’, which will take place when the two teams meet in Frederick, Maryland on June 17.
According to a release from the Keys, the night will involve other Hey Arnold!-themed events, including a Sugar Chunks box top rip-off and a Stinky Peterson pudding eating contest.
Now we’ve got to work out how to get our hands on one of those jerseys.
