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"
GiphyAs 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"
GiphyWho 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"
GiphyBeing 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"
GiphyOrdinary 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"
GiphyThree 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"
GiphyThe 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"
GiphyIf 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"
GiphyThe 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"
GiphyThere'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"
GiphyAs 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"
GiphyPacific 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"
GiphyLife 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"
GiphyNothing 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"
GiphyLife 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!
