14 Throwback TV Shows We ALL Wish Were On Netflix Or Hulu

In This Article:

Growing up in the early 2000s, Nickelodeon and Disney had some of the best television shows out there. Now that I'm in my 20s and Hulu and Netflix have come to be my main source of television, I find myself longing for those throwback shows we all used to know and love. It may seem like it's a lot to ask, but I'm sure if you took a poll of kids growing up in the early 2000s if they'd be more likely to invest in either streaming company if they added these shows they'd wholeheartedly agree.

1. "Kim Possible"

Giphy

As kids, we all wanted to kick butt just like Kim Possible and have a trusted best friend sidekick like Ron Stoppable.

2. "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody"

Giphy

Who didn't want to live in a hotel and run around and have fun like Zack and Cody did when they were growing up? Even if that meant having Mr. Mosby running around always yelling at you trying to kill your vibe.

3. "That's So Raven"

Giphy

Being able to see into the future? Yes, please! Even if that means that sometimes the visions we get lead to all kinds of disasters and mayhem.

4. "Hannah Montana"

Giphy

Ordinary girl by day and pop star by night, sign me up! Whether she was Miley or Hannah, sweet nibblits did Miley Stewart and her friends know how to have a good time.

5. "Jonas"

Giphy

Three famous singing brothers all under one roof trying to live a normal life what could possibly go wrong? Honestly though, this show brought a fun twist to high school and made us all wish we went to high school with the JoBros.

6. "Emperor's New School"

Giphy

The movie spinoff version of this show can be found on Hulu, but that just isn't enough Kuzco to satiate our childhood obsessions.

7. "Wizard's of Waverly Places"

Giphy

If you didn't know all the words and dance to the funky hat song as a kid were you even cool? The Russo siblings had us all wishing we'd grown up with magical powers and all the obstacles that come along with trying to be normal teens with powers.

8. "The Wild Thornberry's"

Giphy

The original Irwin family? Probably so, but that didn't stop us from all wanting to go out in the wild and exploring it all had to offer us with our family.

9. "Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide"

Giphy

There's no better show out there to show kids how to navigate middle school in the most absurd of ways. While it wasn't fully realistic, it made my experience in middle school that much more worth it at the end of the day.

10. "Spongebob Squarepants"

Giphy

As a kid, this was probably one of my favorite shows. There was just something about the friendship between Spongebob and Patrick and the animosity between Mr. Krabs and Plankton that kept me coming back for more.

11. "Zoey 101"

Giphy

Pacific Coast Academy may have been the one boarding school that every kid wished they could go to. No parental supervision required and having fun day and night with our friends, who could possibly turn that down?

12. "Jimmy Neutron"

Giphy

Life would be great if we were all as smart as Jimmy Neutron and able to make super bomb inventions to help save ourselves and the human race.

13. "Scooby-Do"

Giphy

Nothing like solving crimes with your best buds and a talking dog. Also, you'd be lying if you said you never wanted to ride around in the mystery machine at least once.

14. "Fairly Odd Parents"

Giphy

Life would've been so much simpler as kids if we each had our own set of fairly odd parents to help us out whenever we needed it.

Here's to hoping that this article got you back into your childhood feels. I don't know who to talk to in order to begin trying to get thee shows out there for the world to indulge in, but we need to show kids these days what they've been missing out on. If you can think of any other shows that made up your childhood let me know!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
