> Do you remember what time period you saw this in? "All That" has been on for a while - if it is still on, that is. I haven't watched Nickelodeon in a while, but I loved it as a kid in the '90s, and I vividly remember the first few years of "All That", but I never saw a dunk tank skit.

> But I do remember "Wild and Crazy Kids"! They had so many games that required the kids to go underwater - I remember one game where they had to retrieve watermelons from the bottom of a swimming pool or something. And there were never bathing suits; the kids always went in fully clothed. I credit that show for really jump-starting my interest in clothed swimming. I didn't even understand why I loved watching those underwater games so much, but now it all makes perfect sense.

> It wasn't just the game shows, either. There were other classic Nick shows with great clothed underwater sequences - I vividly recall an episode of "The Adventures of Pete and Pete" where Dad is bent on catching a legendary fish called Bob. He gets a high-tech fish finder at one point and tests it out on Little Pete; he finds him laying face-up underwater in the bathtub with all his clothes on, blowing bubbles through his nose (I guess to simulate a fish - it's this sort of unexplained weirdness that the show was famous for). Years later, when I mustered up the courage to take my first clothed bath, that scene certainly stuck out in my mind!
