24 notes "I guess it just goes to show how good the early nineties Nickelodeon programming was and that it actually meant something to the people who watched it. It’s part of how I grew up, it’s part of how I’ve become who I am now. I’ve heard the same thing happened to me said to me by people who grew up on the show. They felt similar to how I felt; it directly changed their way of looking at things. It was OK to be weird and to be a little bit off and to not be completely status quo and to not follow the crowd. And I find pretty much that people who come up to me or like the show are like me or are people I would relate to or would be friends with. Similar mindsets, you know? Those are the kinds of people who would be friends with Chris and Will and Katherine, too. It’s a universal mindset. That’s why I do take it seriously: it means a lot to me, it’s my adolescence, it’s how I was brought up."
