I was born in 1986, and this show came on Nick when I was five. I was a little young during its original run to seriously enjoy it, but now that it's back on Noggin (who are also reviving the genius classic 'The Adventures of Pete and Pete') I think it's one of the most fantastically entertaining shows out there. It may not be the most ground breaking and original show I've ever seen in my life, but it really doesn't matter for the fact that you just can't get enough of it!Clarissa Darling is a hip and smart high school girl who has the coolest outfits (not to mention the coolest room!) and often finds herself in complicated situations (such as dancing in a talent show and going on a blind date). She also has a little brother from hell named Ferguson (AKA Ferg-face or Ferg-wad), who always tries hard to become a businessman, stand-up comic... you name it.The parents are just kind of average, but Sam's awesome because it's not too often you see a girl's best friend who's a guy (on a TV show that is).
So all in all, give this show a shot if you get Noggin. It's a classic for all of us who were born in the '80s and grew up in the early '90s. : )

Clarissa Explains it All is by far better than the other shows on TV. With Clarissa, the smart, funny and informative. Ferguson Darling the business boy, and her parents, and Sam a must watch. Right now it's off TV, but if it comes back on tape it-trust me-I taped and it pays off. My favourite episode is when Ferguson dies-if you watch you'll know!

When I was a teenager, I loved watching Melissa Joan Hart on this show. I would have loved to date a girl like Clarissa. She seems to have it all together. And does not seem to be insacure. She also has annoying little brother named ferguseon and clueless parents. I was hoping for second series of Clarissa. Like the college years. But I guess not. But Melissa Joan Hart had to go to Sabrina The Teenage Witch which was not has funny and charming has Clarissa was.

You know, I grew up on this show. I wanted to be Clarissa, and I just remember the feeling of watching it. Melissa Joan Heart was SO wonderful and I just loved the way the whole show ran. I even watched Sabrina for a while in hopes it would be similar, but you just can't get that Clarissa-esque feeling to it. It was pure genius, and I wish they still played it today. unfortunately they dont, and i havent found very much information on web sites.... But its still my favorite show!
