Be Kind, Don’t Copy

Who Knew Anyone Even Watched 'The Amanda Show'?

Leave it to YouTube to lead a moral crusade against Jack Black. Some old school Nickelodeon fans are up in arms because Black’s new movie, Be Kind Rewind, greatly resembles an episode of The Amanda Show circa 1999. It weirds us out that anyone remembers that, and we’re even more bothered that someone cared enough to make a video for YouTube about it.

You’d be surprised. Go to X-entertainment.com and see how much one person can remember from their childhood.

I’m surprised the person who created this video (looking at you, Amanda Bynes) didn’t take credit for Borat’s schtick too
