@@MrBaronbirchum - I'm not so certain. I certainly remember wanting to crawl into her window back then. That said, I was thirteen and all those hormones were kicking in around then.
The fact that a girl and boy were friends without sex getting in the way was one of the best things about this show. I'm a guy and had loads of great female friends in my teens. It hardly ever gets portrayed positively, and this show deserves praise for doing it.
Clarissa had to be one of *the* coolest girls in the 90s. She likes Pearl Jam and They Might Be Giants, AND she makes video games. Is there a more awesome girl?
I'm sure a number of high up people from Nickelodeon invited a number of young boys and girls into their bedrooms thru the window and the front door after offering the world to them; maybe including PJ tix.
Real story. Had this exact scenario play out. Grandparents celebrating 55 years together. Iron Maiden, Dio & Motorhead same night as the anniversary. I told my grandparents the truth. I want to go to this concert and I would make it up to them. I took them to Disney World three weeks later and they renewed their vows during the fireworks show. Moral of the story, just be honest.
I’m 27 and vaguely remember this, I don’t remember much because I was pretty much a baby when this show was out, but the style of clothing is coming back to my generation and I love it!

As I was watchin' _Clarissa Explains It All_ from the 7th to 11th grade, Melissa was that one girl who got me hooked into white girls throughout my survival of the coming-of-age transition of school. There was even one specific girl of my dreams that I wanted to have when was in 10th grade, even though she was two grades ahead of me and graduated with a diploma right on out the wazoo. Afterwards I realized that Melissa was the placeholder of me takin' a liking to girls just like her, it came to me that I had me a lust for herself too. And now, time has passed, I'ms a grown ass man, Melissa's a grown ass woman, and I'm still carrying the lots amount of intense love for her as I did since the 7th grade. Glad to see she still bright, witty and exuberant as the woman I dreamt she'd become to grow up into, and it was worth the while watching Clarissa all over again right from beginnin' to end. What a kooky endeavor.
The set to this show was so good! I always loved her room, obviously, but the kitchen and living room looked like a house you would really walk into back in the 90’s!
twisted view labs the replicas made in recent years are probably around $5-$25. But an actual shirt from 1991-1993 in even decent condition would go for several hundred dollars.
i remember watching this show in 92, i was 8 and all i wanted was clarissa as my girlfriend. she was just the coolest girl and she had the best style and taste.
In my experience with this almost exact scenario as a toddler back in 1991-1993, my own dad simply would have and, well… usually did… drop me off at Grandma’s for a weekend without a second thought when Pearl Jam was anywhere remotely “near” Seattle. Oh, and for clarity’s sake - by “near” it should be noted that for him, this meant the band were playing less than a full day’s drive away. So sometimes these were three or four day weekends at Grandma’s.
0:29 love that musical filler that kicks in.. reminiscent of "ten" era PJ whereas this show is referring to the tour promoting the later Vs. Album. Imagine Clarissa rocking out to Rear View Mirror, outrageous
haha i remember a chapter where clarissa says to somebody ( or maybe somebody to clarissa) : hey, the last of Nirvana ( giving a cassette... maybe Incestiside or In Utero)
Clarissa, I got Tickets for Pearl Jam on the 3th of July in Berlin. Better late than never! Remember when I watched this Episode, was so hyped as well bout PJ...😂😂😂
Times have changed. I'd like to see how well it would go over today, for a young man to climb into the window of his female friend, without the parents knowledge.
Are you bitching because you cant climb into your friends windows without their knowledge? Your point is also irrelevant because that happens in kids shows like this now.
GAAAAAH! It's perfectly possible for boys and girls just to be friends, and the portrayal of Sam and Clarissa's friendship was THE best thing about this show.
The book is awful. Something I can't get over is that the book is obviously set in the present but has Clarissa at least ten years too young as a character, which throws everything out of whack for the TV show, which is so obviously set in the early 90s.
The old bags went to their car across the street and got hit by a car and died (hit and run) and Clarissa said bye and went to the concert and had a GREAT time... It was one of the darker episodes 😔
There is a terrible quality version on dailymotion. This was from a torrent I can't seem to find anymore, even that had terrible hissing that needed scrubbed out of the video.
The show is on Paramount Plus now. However, it’s very disappointing because it’s missing a lot of episodes (like so many other acquired shows on that service).
ah yes, i remember everyone and their cousin loved pearl jam back in the day - that was the brief period where actual bands were more popular than pop acts. then the late 90s came and all the boy bands/girl pop acts came along.
it was 100% Clarissa. I can remember the band mentioned, (no idea about the context) and being so young watching this it made me think "wow that's such cool people music, I wish I were that cool".
Has anyone from the show been interview about this? The only comparable thing to me is the la law Grateful Dead episode except there they actually played st Stephan
Check this. Props to the uploader. Clarissa released an album. I like "Walking in the Cemetary"

Missing Pearl Jam in 93 is an absolute tragedy. This is a case where sometime you just really need to speak up when something is important to you.
There's a episode where she buys nirvana tickets and loses them or something
I was there 2 or 3 times.
You didn't miss anything Shut your pie hole

@@mysterymachine.officialWell of course you remember crying all the way back. You were 40 years old.
Clarissa’s parents were very chill for letting a guy up in her room whenever him and Clarissa wanted
They're like best friends from the crib.
We weren't so overtly focused on sex back on the 90s. 🤷🏻♂️

The 90s for me as a kid. Nickelodeon and Grunge. This Clarissa episode brings them both together.

I was wondering why I never seen this series. Nickelodeon.
She is cute though
MTV had a huge part too! Remember Liquid Television?
Ah...pearl jam and clarrisa. Takes me back

That's great that it turned out well for the three of you. In what year was this? Such a lineup sounds insane!
Loser
I used to love this show! Brings back childhood memories.
Natalie C I know right! And I suddenly have an unexplainable urge to listen to Pearl Jam.
It is
Did you know? The creator of this show also actually created “Bear in the Big Blue House” and “It’s a Big Big World”? I’m serious!
I think after HeyDude got cancelled, this show was the reason maybe, not sure, a shame, Hey Dude was a cool show.
All the old Nick shows were great, hell all shows from the 80s and 90s were fucking great. Go Go Power Rangers!
I had completely forgotten about this show and now the nostalgia almost hurts. Where’s my life gone?!
Thirty years ago!
I’m 27 and vaguely remember this, I don’t remember much because I was pretty much a baby when this show was out, but the style of clothing is coming back to my generation and I love it!
The difference is while Clarissa used to go to Nirvana and Pearl Jam's concerts, Carly went to 1D and BTR's 😕

You act like Nirvana and Pearl Jam are actually good bands. Even in the 90s they were both super mediocre.

Melissa Joan Hart is a truly gifted actress. She was so young
Not really. She is older than Clarissa. By the time she did Sabrina she was already in mid 20s.
@@MrParkerman6 She was barely 20 when Sabrina started airing in 1996.

@@MrParkerman6 Sabrina came out in 1996.
She was born in 1976.
She was literally 20 on the dot.. if not 19 when they started.
Man the music on this show was so great
Oh Clarissa. It doesn't matter where you sit when you see Pearl Jam, you're seeing Pearl Jam!
No matter where you sit or stand, you can’t miss Eddie Vedder swinging from the rafters.
Better than overrated Nirvana
Such a great show takes me back to when I was younger I was born in the early eighties
is there a guitar string on that ladder he climbs?
Lol
I always wondered the same thing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Her hair is so beautiful.
The set to this show was so good! I always loved her room, obviously, but the kitchen and living room looked like a house you would really walk into back in the 90’s!
In case today's kids watching this are wondering, yes, Pearl Jam was, and is a real band. They now have their own RUclips channel.
I don't know why but watching this clip makes me want to time travel back to the 90s as an adult.
_Produced for Nickelodeon, Clarissa DOES explain it all in this popular 1991 series_
I’m realizing that I raised a Clarissa! She reminds me of my 16 year old daughter. 🥰
I remember being young and developing an unhealthy habit of talking to imaginary cameras breaking the fourth wall and narrating my life 😂
Nowadays that’s called social media loll. Oh how the world evolves!
Is that why I do this too
@@Emiliapocalypse Modern kids do it because of The Office and their narcissism.

Omg!!! I used to do the same thing!!
Her outfits!!!! Love them!!!
Damn! Pearl Jam, 4th row, center! BACKSTAGE PASSES! Sorry, grandma
That Pearl Jam shirt she is wearing at 4:31 is worth a ton on E-bay now.
New Damage not really. I've seen it at Savers for $5.
twisted view labs yea he said EBay
twisted view labs the replicas made in recent years are probably around $5-$25. But an actual shirt from 1991-1993 in even decent condition would go for several hundred dollars.

Just because it's retro and plus she wore it yeah it is worth a fortune.
That Sam sound effect is also in Twin Peaks and now I'm scared
LOL...it’s so Twin Peaks. I guess that was the sound of the early 90’s. 😂
Lol
Funny story. So I met MJH at a video shoot for Blind Melon's "Tones Of Home" video in downtown L.A. in 1994.
tell the story. Was she nice? what was she like?
that's hilarious.
Did she give you her number?
@@Mr.Obongo no, didn't ask for it.

haha when i was a kid i wanted my room to look like hers!

Holy crap his is epic. Wow. I need to rewatch all of this.
If only Clarissa had magical powers. This would have been easy for Sabrina!
Kicks in at "Ten" subliminal album promotion?
Every single outfit, ao cool 😎
Pearl Jam would have been cool to see back then, but Alice in Chains would have been my top priority.
And nirvana!🎙🎤🎧🎹🎸
Weird, I was watching a Pearl Jam video and remembered this, my brain is mental. Neural connections! Advertising is very pwerful
Alice In Wonderland Version VHS UK DISNEY 1995
I’d love to have seen Nirvana or Pearl Jam but AIC makes me want to jump off a bridge. They are so awful.
Alice In Chains w Layne Staley were my favorite band, but they are still pretty good. I still listen to them.
the best Pearl Jam tour too
haha i remember a chapter where clarissa says to somebody ( or maybe somebody to clarissa) : hey, the last of Nirvana ( giving a cassette... maybe Incestiside or In Utero)

her good taste was improved :D

beaky cole Stone Temple Pilots right? 😉
Pearl Jam
Sum 41 I think.
Maybe Limp Bizkit?
Wondering how much pearl jam tickets cost in the 90s...today are ridiculous expensive,$800 dollars wtf!
Oh wow, the memory just came back to me.
I didn't get these references back then. I was like seven.

AND I GOT THEMMM
my name is clarissa
It's a lovely name. 👍🏻 I really like it.
I miss physical ticket stubs.
