Damn the answer “I can’t answer that due to the fact that i’m 40” was sadly not the answer I was expecting from a 2004 sitcom. Glad it was tho. Awesome show
Yeah, knowing the Dan Schneider stuff, I was always surprised how unproblematic this show was.
@@TheSorrel that's cause this was one of those few shows NOT by dan .
@@TheSorrel When Alex said "Someone should show this part to Dan Schneider" that was some great comedy right there
@@HorrorDiva01 Yes but even around like 2015 Nickelodeon still had a few pretty great shows that weren´t made by Dan Schneider the problem is they were only interested in giving new season to those that were and the rest got cancelled too soon, such as Bella & the Bulldogs, The Haunted Hathaway, Max & Shred, 100 Things to do Before High School (this one even had some Ned Declassified vibes), WITS Academy, etc
Yea that’s y no feet were involved
Ned's Declassified is one of the most well-aged Nickelodeon sitcoms from the 2000s
Like a fine cheese.
Yeah Dan scheneider didn't have anything to do with it 😬😅
😂
It because dirty Dan wasn’t involve in this show
@Don't Read My Profile Photo ok
This was a good show. There was an episode where Moze blew off studying for a test, thinking she could just wing it because she was smart and always did well. She ended up doing poorly, and the lesson was that you should always study ahead of time and make sure you're prepared. Even if you get A's, never think you can just wing it. A genuinely good lesson that I wish I implemented more in some of my college classes.
agreed it's funny and offers some good advice.
Every episode usually has some kind great lesson you can learn from. It’s very wholesome
okay, but real talk, Ned's holds up. it has like good continuity and feels really relatable to middle school. it is a fun time, and i re-watch it from time to time
Despite the show being weird, all the characters added something to the show! Missy, Loomer, the teachers. Really good actors who obviously enjoyed doing the show!!. That's rare to see in shows today.
And they were all multidimensional in some way, especially Loomer and his friends (like the one who likes sewing, I forgot his name)
@@minnakha5101 true, I like how Mose and Susie started as rivals and became best friends
@@minnakha5101 I think you mean the curly haired kid. "I am in the sewing club!" And everybody else was like: 😮 Hahaha!!!
Yeah, I like how even though Loomer was a bully, he was also a romantic too.
@@emilyz.9112 Yes, he was in love with Moze and was always trying to do something nice to call her attention, which was complicated since he picked on her best friends
We're still just as weird today 😘
I remember it being 2013 and my dad actually recommended me and my sister to watch this on Netflix because HE wanted an excuse to binge watch it. And we watched an episode after school everyday!
Not what binge watching means.
You know the characters from this show strike me as students that would ultimately come back to be teachers
If that's not what they're coming back for then we riot, that's genius :OOO
@@anniemouse3853 Ned is a teacher, Cookie is the schools I.T. Guy (in place of the janitor) and Moze is the Principal.
@@SixMajinMiss or alternatively she comes back as either the gym teacher or the woodshop teacher
honestly yeah, i can see that, I think it may be due to the fact the shows teachers have just as wild and goofy personalities as the kids and I could see the kids becoming teachers themselves. except for Claire sawyer, she's going to be a future lawyer
What I loved about this show was how the random music and sound effects made it like a live action cartoon.
This show really was a Gem like some of the lessons still run true plus it has one of my favorite casts of a sitcoms. Definitely peak nick.
I really liked Moze!!! She wasn't too much of a "I'm not like other girls" but still not a girly stereotype
She's normal and well balanced. If anything, she's a decoy. At first you'd expect her to be a 'pick me'. But she's nothing like that, at all
Me too
“It burns my eyes” and the end legit made me laugh for like 5 min straight!
The show is really different without the sound effects going off every other second. And I’m saying that as a bad thing cause I love those sound effects.
Gordy was my favorite, and it was cool as a kid seeing the real-life actor who voiced Timmy’s Dad and Cosmo on the Fairly Odd Parents.
It's kind of interesting how this shows is one the only one of Nicks shows that the actor can actually look back on fondly.
Where did you go to middle school? A Disney Channel movie?
My favorite part of the show was the use dummies when characters were yeeted or falling from great heights
this show really shaped a lot of our humor without us even knowing it
3:10 You know the weird thing about this take is that when I was younger I genuinely thought Ned was Jeff Kenny's son or something. They just looked so much a like.
The janitor doesn't get paid enough for this
I love how half the sound effects in this show are just some guy playing like an Ibanez with a lot of distortion and doing whammy tricks
Actually cookie was wearing the first good version of of Google glass
I always like how Shows are renamed in other languages, this for example would translate to Ned's Ultimate school mania in German. 😅
0:04 A big group of my friends convinced me to watch this in middle school. This was at a birthday party for my male friend, and he specifically requested that another friend, who owned the disc, bring it over. Needless to say, it was an experience. I would honestly rewatch now, but definitely not sober.
So happy you madre this one about Ned’s Declassified, it was one of my favorite shows
I started growing out my hair the summer of 8th grade. My mom said I had to "at least trim the bangs" literally ended up like a blonde coconut head/ looked like a Dutch foreign exchange student. Best part was picture day was the first day and those same pictures are used for the yearbook. Was a rough couple months, until it grew back.
NGL, Ned's tip to keep your locker one number away from the final number of the combination was something I actually used lol
D'aww! I used to watch this with my big brothers and our mom all the time. I was pretty young, but I have a lot of good memories of all four of our insomniac butts staying up late and watching it.
I loved Ned’s Declassified it was on Teen Nick everyday after school when I was in 6th grade which was the 2013-2014 school year. That was a great time
I remember this show. The moldy bread from the science fair episode was a scene that stuck with me lol
This was the first co-production between the U.S. Nickelodeon and Canada's Family Channel (which was their version of rival Disney Channel at the time), hence why it was filmed in Toronto and had a cast of both American and Canadian actors.
cookie is not a cyborg, he just has great technologic tools
I love this show so much! The humor, the characters, its all soo good!
Something that was deeply buried in my memories until seeing this video just now is that one of the actresses from Hey Dude was a faculty member at my middle school, so they'd play an episode of Hey Dude after the morning announcements every day. That was so far buried for some reason, it's so surreal remembering that now.
I remember being 10 when this aired on canada's family channel. Runescape was pretty new at that time and i remember playing every summer morning and watching this and kim possible, etc
I watched every episode of all 3 seasons and actually used a lot of tips from the show to learn about surviving school. I think that most worked
Personally I love the translation into German for the series which retranslates roughly to "Ned's ultimate school mania"
This show was like cocaine for me as a 7 year old I swear to god
Cookie’s not actually a cyborg, he’s just really good with computers, and that kind of technology wasn’t very accessible at the time this show was made.
Good god I LOVED this show. It was such a well aged and funny show. I would watch any and every episode of I had a chance, even if it meant running home at lunch for 20 minutes
My shame is that I was the Backpack Kid in school (like ALL of it, college included). Not because I was ruining my back, but because I wasn't doing it even a fifth as well as the kid in the show. No grill or nothing, the SHAME.
I love watching these videos of yours mostly because I grew up on them, but they were dubbed in dutch and it messes with my brain that these actors actually have different voices
Oh, I have such fond memories of watching this show. I still go back and watch episodes, and I still love it to this day.
Fun fact: All That and The Amanda Show = Dan Schneider’s paws are all over em.
I watched this show everyday before school and I genuinely think its why my sense of humor is the way it is
Lol, no idea why RUclips didn’t recommend this, but I’m glad I found it, very entertaining
I remember when I was in 3-5 grade elementary school when this show got released and it didn't help me prepare for middle school at all. lol
The three mains have a podcast together now.
2:25 and 2:33
Are we gonna ignore the fact the blonde in the green and white striped shirt is a GOD DAMNED DEMON CAPABLE OF TELEPORTATION?!?!??
This is the show that taught us how to Survive the craziness of Middle School
It has weirdly good comedy bits for a kids show
The Amanda show was the real fever dream that show was just out of pocket
My woodworks teacher had no middle finger
If everything Max wrote in Sharkboy and Lavagirl came to life, then it means that Lavagirl had amnesia because Max GAVE HER amnesia.
I was just doing a rewatch last night and now this pops up
Ok but Princess and the Pauper lmao
This show was a major part of my childhood, and my favorite show to watch growing up, thank you for covering it!!
When I used watch this show back in the day for whatever reason I thought this show would help me but apparently didn’t help me
PLEASE DO PRINCESS AND THE PAUPER
The girl farting on the couch killed me 😂😂😂
Who wanted to “canoodle” with Lisa Zemo more than they wanted to “canoodle” with Suzie Crabgrass?
Any parent that names there kid Cookie, shouldn't be a parent.
Watching this one for a second time after getting to the end of Del Toro's Pinocchio
Yo the Dan Schneider burn was on point!!!
Fortunately the Ned cast had a great director & positive environment. They had it really good compared to the workers in Dan's shows
@@SlashinatorZ Yeah seriously. I feel bad for the actors that were under Schneider, dude had some weird stuff going on in those shows looking back on it now
I’m ready for Ned’s Declassified Life Survival Guide.
But Ned is fundamentally different from the Wimpy Kid because Ned wanted to help other kids with his guide while Wimpy Kid wrote his diary as a guide because he thought he was better than everyone else.
I was already 20 when the first movie came out, but I actually enjoyed the movie for the same reason that most people hated it. I LIKED that Greg was a selfish jerk. I liked seeing a main character that was flawed that had to learn to grow from those flaws. It was a refreshing change of pace to not have a child main character who was a goody-two-shoes.
Harryanna Hook (she has an opinion channel here on RUclips) even complimented how Ned is a great exemple of when they make a "perfect character" work with some good-writing, because we see a lot of shows that try to make their characters flawless just because they are the main characters but we as the audience get annoyed by this because they do make mistakes and the show won´t acknowledge that, but with Ned he is really nice and just wants to help others, even when he does "wrong" things such as stealing a notebook to study for a test, tricking his teachers to get info about some other student or change the way people see him he still does it in an funny way and it never gets awful consequences either for him or his friends or the school staff so we can´t get angry at him
So wimpy kid is like a live action Daria?
@@dapperfan44oh no the movie is great. But in the book he just kinda stays a jackass the entire series.
Also, Diary of a Wimpy Kid was originally an online comic that came out in 2004. Not to mention Jeff Kinney started working on the book with his publisher in 2001, the publisher even confirmed this. Definitely wasn’t copied. If anything, ND complied Wimpy Kid
The charm of Ned's Declassifies is precisely the absurd, the cartoonish, but well made.
Well thank you ;)
On the podcast I heard it was made by Scott Fellows who also wrote and produced Fairly Oddparents so you can see the absurd, cartoonish, exaggerated world of Ned's Declassified. But this is one of the best shows similar to Big Time Rush.
7:02 swy
Agreed!
Neds declassified school survival guide is in my opinion one of the best live action shows to come out of Nickelodeon. I would get excited watching the hijinks that occur on the show.
@DoNotreadmyprofilephotostfu
I completely agree! The actress who plays Moze did an interview recently and she said they made her wear jackets to hide her chest because they thought she looked too old. She said it made her feel really awkward all this focus was always on her chest. So great show not so great for the actresses unfortunately
I'm so glad you wrote out the whole name. That's the way it's supposed to be said
Great show but I like iCarly the most.
@@WhitneyDahlin she looked older already but isn’t that much older than ned
I'm surprised no one is taking about Ned's tips. They were honestly quite useful.
Especially those for school tests, running for student council, making friends, choosing after clubs among other things.
I swear those tips would have been so useful if I was rewatching this so around my teen years.
The best part, all characters mattered and weren't just there. The vice principal and Mr Sweeny despite being an authorized figure had characteristics that were different from the perspective of Ned. VP being there to watch out for kids to help them which was his goal after changing careers from a cop. And Mr Sweeny who despite being seen as some evil (Ned and his schoolmates prescriptive) but truly did care for his students. From tricking Ned into using his old notebook to study his test to not ratting him out in the finale episode.
There were kids who had careers planned out for themselves, like the lawyer girl.
Teachers to guide students and even connect on a personal level (choosing a career episode)
Even the janitor was made so likeable and not seen below others who worked at the school. He was given a personality that to me made him the best character, I character who's absence would ruin the show in a way.
This was such an underrated show. I'm annoyed it's not mostly known.
I remember Ned had a tip during a dodgeball game in one of the episodes to throw a ball in the air to confuse your opponent so that they’ll attempt to catch it, which in turn leaves an opening for you to hit them on the side. I thought of Ned and used this tip/strategy back when I was in the 6th grade and it worked LOL. Thank you Ned
@@JayceeLabrador that is so damn cute+
Structured procrastination. A tip I still use to this day
Most helpful episode for me was the baby powder episode 😭
Some of those tips were lifesavers in college, especially the note-taking one
I heard someone recently say Ned’s was like Scrubs for kids - good lessons, great humor, dreamlike surrealism, and the satisfaction of watching a group of people start something as newbies and then complete it.
There is even a crazy janitor.
funny thing is this came before scrubs I think
@@tooncastfan5151 nah scrubs started in 2001 and neds started in 2004.
omg YES! this! the janitor was one of my fav charakters xD
The majority of the main cast were first time actors. It was awesome to see their growth. Miss this show
The fact this show was grounded and mostly felt real and had no laugh track was enough for me to be a favorite, but also has a great overall plot, the characters are its heart and soul AND it's funny without being obnoxiously physical, this was peak Nickelodeon and it's sad how underrated it is because it came in the age of Drake&Josh and iCarly
I would say Drake and Josh more so since iCarly started 3 months after this show ended
Gordy, the janitor, was also the voice of Timmy's dad in "Fairly Odd Parents." I loved that he never did any actual work, just "letting the night guy take care of it."
He also played Budda Bob on "Big Time Rush" and voiced Cosmo on "Fairly Odd Parents"
even when they had a replacement that was great at cleaning. He kept his job because he was better with the students.
Yep Daran Norris legendary VA
@@timsheppard6204 Darren Norris is an absolute treasure.
Also, the art teacher is played by Nolan North, who is best known for voicing Nathan Drake
I don’t say this lightly, this show is one of the greatest shows ever.
Agree!
@@melissasalazar1606 same
no seriously
Yes . This dude hates everything
@Eddy Rivera Comic Dubs you clearly didn't watch the video
watching ned's declassified after school will always be a core memory
yes one of the best childhood memories growing up 😪
Same here!
Great middle school memories lol
I need to keep that "I can't answer that because I'm 40" line tucked away to get my students to stop asking me if their peers are hot. Why do they want my opinion so badly? I don't understand!
"It's a trap!"
you kinda look like a pedo ngl got a face that matches the opinion
Wait why DO they want your opinion?
Because all children are insane😂😂
I don't know, @@therealsapdad1942! God knows they don't want my opinion on literature and how to think critically about what they're reading!
This show has surprisingly aged well.
This show really deserved better. The humor has aged so well and it's still funny and fun to watch even at 25.
I am 30 and i agree.
I was hoping you'd mention the "I can't answer that due to the fact that I'm 40"
I haven't seen this show in 15 years but that line always stuck with me
Same! It's honestly the only acceptable answer in that situation yet for some reason other shows make it okay for adults to comment on children's appeareances
It’s one of the funniest lines for sure
We stan wholesome Gordy (who is also aware of statutory laws).
just watch at 10:00
They did talk about it.
The three main actors from the show just started up a new podcast called “Ned’s Declassified Podcast Guide” that is pretty fun and they’ve been going through episodes and just talking about some of the fun they had on set and some insecurities in being a child actor. I’ve found it pretty enjoyable.
This show will always hold a special place with me because I was literally starting 6th grade when this came out. They aged with me and really felt like the show was directly for me.
Same!!
Same, and most songs in pop culture aged with people that were born in 1992 like me, LITERALLY
Ned’s declassified actually had some legit tips for surviving middle school
And the one about how to organize your papers and supplies is definitely useful.
I used the locker lock trick all the time. Where you enter the first and second numbers of the combination, then when your rushing to your next class you put in the last number.
@@oliviashearer Wait, that was a tip? I've been doing that since i was in middle school, and i never even seen this show
The ones I remember the most are: if they won´t let you run in some part of school try "fast-walking", whenever a teacher says something twice highlight it because it will be on a test, don´t carry too much stuff on your backpack otherwise you´ll look like a turtle and if you´re afraid of going somewhere because there may be bullies there ask a friend to go with you
i still remember the episode about procrastination, still use those tips :)
Okay but seriously Barbie: Princess and the Pauper is such an insanely brilliant movie. Shocking and true.
It and Barbie and the Nutcracker are my faves. I really hope Alex covers it one day
@@unfabgirl I mean, he said he wouldn't do animated stuff bc it wouldn't really work with his animation style, but then again, he did do Miracolous or whatever it's called, so ... there may be hope?
PREMINGER… I can’t even, best antagonist to DATE
@@cherusiderea1330 The Miraculous video is what gives me hope
@@lmc1022ITS A TEMPORARY SET BACK, ITS A MOMENTARY *?*, BUT CONVENIENTLY MY EGO DOESNR BRUISE
Still my favorite Nickelodeon sitcom. Its one of them that haven't been ruined due to Dan Schneider.
Thx Scott fellows❤
@@YungRomeoX Hi, Im Brian Fellow
This along with Big Time Rush. I also enjoyed School of Rock. That was probably the last good live action Nick show.
I fucking LOVED Ned's Declassified! I never forgot that one episode where he talked about note-taking and said to double underline something that a teacher says twice - got me through my masters!
But also real talk: the Amanda Show was also great! I still remember the freaky doll that would go "MAHA!"😂
Totally Kyle was good also
I gotta admit, Amanda show, even as a kid, was weird to me.
YOU’RE SO HURTFUL!!!!
To be honest, there could be a good plot to a reboot for the show. Ned and his friends out of college trying to figure out how to live an adult life on their own. That's definitely a struggle for a lot people. There is no need for more than 2 seasons give or take on how long and how many episodes there are.
They're starting a podcast about exactly that, my dude
I’m afraid it would have the same end as ICarly, the reboot is so uncomfortable with the adult themes
Actually, they kind of did that.
There’s a channel somewhere where they made a skit about surviving college and the main character brings out Neds guide to help them. His friend thinks that’s lame and useless since the guide was for middle school so he tries to throw it away but it gets caught by, get this, Ned himself making a cameo (like the actual actor shows up for the skit). He then calla forth a new updated guide for college and gives it to the main character before he disappears into the sunset.
I think they pitched one where some are going to college and others have jobs and it's tips on getting through college and doing jobs and adult things like balancing check books, how to negotiate mortgages, and do taxes ... all things my highschool decided all the students needed to know. Anyways, I think the pitch was rejected by nickelodeon.

@@UriosEditz I didn't grow up in the 90s
@@TokuBoyStudios oh
@@UriosEditz Yoooo
@@darkincognito3826 what ?
I think the characters were amazing, diverse, and ahead of its time as well.
Moze had ALL the potential to be those "i'm not like other girls, ew girly things" type of girls, and this trope was at peak during the 00s.
But instead she was just a regular tomboyish girl who happens to be bffs with 2 boys. She never shames other girls for being feminine, and she also yearns for a girl bestfriend.
Even her rivalry with Suzie brings out the best of both characters and had nothing to do with competing for a boy's attention. It was just perfect and wholesome!
as insane as the show is, I love how they totally lean into the insanity - this show knows exactly what it is and what it's doing lol, I re-watched it last year as a 25 year old and was super surprised how enjoyable and funny I still found it to be
To me Ned's Declassified has the same charme as Malcolm in the middle. It never get's old and you just have to laugh. You can watch the episodes a billion of times and ist's still funny. Both series aged pretty well and the characters are so diverse and interesting. Hard to top that. :)
I see where you are going. They both had a realism to it. And both covered the awkwardness of adolescence well
Agree 100%!! ;D
YES! Same vibes!
@@pleaseshutup7053 Not to mention that both main characters break the 4th wall.
Thanks for FINALLY doing Ned's Declassified Guide. This series was top Nickelodeon, the premise was simple and each an every chapter was fun, the cast was solid and the story ark for each and everyone of them all see a conclusion throughout the series, which is something plenty of series dropped the ball latter on. This is one and Drake & Josh are the only early 2000 nickelodeon series I can still recommend without the fear of creating some sort trauma.
This wasn't just a great show. It was an ACTUAL SURVIVAL GUIDE
I swear Alex says what we are all thinking but no one talks about. ‘Middle school is twitter in real life’. Holy hell, what an accurate description.
My sister was born with a very rare chromosome disorder that gave her weakened breathing which caused her airway to be very small. Meaning she couldn’t talk normally as her vocal cords didn’t vibrate like normal. Somehow she taught herself to whisper talk. It was amazing. Anyways, long story short her health conditions kept her from experiencing normal things such as a normal school life. She was often home sick with pneumonia most years.
This show gave her hope. It let her feel what it was like to have friends and have goofy jokes and things happen to you at school. She felt as if she were a character in the show herself. It was amazing seeing her joy whenever this show came on.
Sadly my sister passed away suddenly at home 2 years ago. This show will forever hold a special place in my heart and memories. My sister lived her life through her shows she watched. They gave her hope.
Oh my gosh! Your comment warmed my heart! God bless you, your family, and your sister and may your sister rest in peace! :) If it's okay for me to ask how old was she? :(
I'm sorry for your loss :(
*Response*
My sister was born in 1998 and passed away in November 2020. When she was born the doctors at the time told my parents the best thing we could do for her was to put her in a facility. My parents refused outright. A lady at the hospital was giving flowers of all sorts away at the doors leading outside. She gave my parents a sunflower and from that moment till now that flower has held a lot of meaning. On my sisters grave we were able to have sunflowers etched into her nameplate.
My sister was born with a digeorge syndrome. She was a fluke, the rarity for her illness was a 1 in 6 million chance. Since her passing we’ve now learned that my sister was actually born with an illness known as 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. It’s a real head scratcher to explain, but simply put it is an extremely rare condition.
My sister has been in countless medical journals and teaching materials for doctors to learn from her so that her life might be help for another child to live a better and more healthier lifestyle than my sister.
🌻🌻Rest In Peace Gracie Lou 1998-2020🌻🌻
You know what, the janitor in this show was the lawyer in Veronica Mars so Ned was right to bring him to the lunch table 😆
Lol, I recently watched Veronica Mars and was shock to see him there, but your absolutely right.
He was! i forgot about that. Another good 2000s show altho i'll be honest, i didnt get passed season 1 lmao
He was also in izombie
He's also Cosmo from the fairly odd parents and he's voiced several anime characters. :D
He also voiced Cosmo in fairly Odd Parents!
I remember watching this show as a kid and my dad actually liked it and wanted to watch it with me. Which is one of the few times outside of Avatar: The Last Airbender that he wanted to watch a kids show with me. Just speaks to its quality
If you're reading all the praise about Ned's Declassified in the comments and wondering if it's all the hype or not, let me assure you: YES. It's a phenomenal show and has aged extremely well.
the amount of character growth between the premiere and finale is amazing. Im so excited for their podcast
The friends to lovers relationship between Ned and Moze is one of my favourite things about the show! Just love their growth
This show feels like a fever dream! I remember liking it as a kid, but I was always completely obsessed with Drake and Josh. Looking back now and knowing about all the controversy with Dan Schneider, I realize this was one of Nick’s least problematic shows. It aged well.
It was actually created by Scott Fellows and not Dan Schneider which hugely helps by a long shot. Lol
It’s one of the few Nick shows that the cast looks back on fondly
@@callsigncoyote7931 Same with Big Time Rush, and I think that was also made by Fellows
I think it's super interesting that, according to Alex, American middle schools really do have similarities to series like this (even if, of course, a lot of it is exaggerated for comedic purposes). When the series was released under the name "Neds ultimativer Schulwahnsinn" ("Ned's Ultimate School Madness") in Germany in 2006, I was just 12 and had been enrolled in High School, since there is no middle school in Germany. When you're 11 or 12, you're just sent to the same school as 18-year-olds. And back then I always imagined that such schools didn't really exist and watched the series more like some kind of fantasy series. XD I learned much later how the American school system works.
My middle school shared a building with high school kids, with gave the middle school kids an advantage with the option to take some of the high school standardized tests before high school (I ended up finishing high school a year early because of this). However, you also had to share the gym with another older group of students and man did that mess with my self image😅😅
This is my favorite Nickelodeon show. Every character was incredible, they had their own music and personalities, and they all merged incredibly well to one another. And the humor of the show is great. Wacky, ridiculous, but grounded in the sense that we all went through those things they did. Also, the sound effects were great
Great summary!
