Nickelodeon's Slime Time Live is a television series that aired on Nickelodeon from 2000 to 2003, lasting 8 seasons. During its run it was hosted by Dave Aizer, Jonah Travick, and Jessica Holmes and Produced/Directed by Jason Harper. The show was located outside of (or if weather did not permit, inside) the former Nickelodeon Studios at Universal Studios Florida. The show was used as filler during regular commercial time.
[edit] Interactive games
During the show, viewers would phone in to play interactive games with players on the show. The most common game was to make a match of "Nicktoons" (Nickelodeon's original animation series) from off a tic tac toe grid. The board was scrambled before game play and if a match was made the home player would win a prize and the contestant would be slimed and often pied as well. If no match was made, host Dave Aizer would receive a pie in the face. The show holds a world record in the most people pied in 3 minutes, 1,000, year 2001, and most people slimed year 2003 (the episode in which this happened wound up to be the final episode)(also, this sliming, because of the amount of slime that was used, had to be done on the set of Double Dare 2000.
Over the seasons, more interactive games would be played, many celebrities from other Nick shows appeared often, and in most shows, the end game would play off called the Big Shaboozie, formally known as the Super Sloppy Slime Off where 2 teams of three (teams included 2 home players) sat in a machine where above them a long trough called Shaboozies was located and the home player winners would win a grand prize and the in house contestants would win the grand prizes as well as get dropped with 15 gallons of slime.
[edit] Final season
In the last season of STL, the show began recording prior to the days it was set to air, and aired in the AM hours, which contributed to poor ratings as many kids during the AM hours were usually busy getting ready for school. This was the second to last show that was recorded at Nickelodeon Studios Florida.
Near Slime Time Live's final season it would often connect with U-Pick Live (Florida to New York) and U-Pick Live would take over as Slime Time Live would end.
[edit] Friday Night Slimetime
A few years after STL's cancellation, Friday Night Slimetime premiered on Nickelodeon, but unlike the original version, its segments were pre-recorded. It was canceled after only a few episodes. The most common prizes on these shows were either a bicycle or athletic balls.
