About Double Dare

Double Dare was a game show that aired on Nickelodeon from 1986 to 1993. Hosted by Marc Summers, the show featured two teams competing in physical challenges and trivia questions. The show was known for its messy stunts, including the famous obstacle course at the end of each episode.

Double Dare quickly became a hit with kids and families, and it helped establish Nickelodeon as a major player in children's television. The show's popularity led to spin-offs and specials, including Family Double Dare and Super Sloppy Double Dare.

The show's success can be attributed to its energetic host, creative challenges, and the fun and messy atmosphere that made it a favorite among kids. Double Dare also had a positive impact on its young viewers, promoting teamwork, sportsmanship, and education.

Although the show ended its original run in 1993, it has since been revived several times, including a 2018 reboot hosted by Liza Koshy. Double Dare remains a beloved part of Nickelodeon's history and a nostalgic favorite for those who grew up watching it.
