Plots(1)
In the early 1990s, the children's cable network Nickelodeon produced a spate of television series that were funny, smart, and never pandered to--or insulted the intelligence of--its predominantly pre-teen audience. The girl-powered comedy CLARISSA EXPLAINS IT ALL was one of the most beloved Nick offerings, deftly capturing the pre-teen zeitgeist of the early '90s with charm to burn. Melissa Joan Hart shot to fame as the series' spunky teenage heroine Clarissa Darling, who maneuvered through the mini-dramas of adolescence and the zaniness of her unconventional family--especially annoying younger brother Ferguson (Jason Zimbler)--with problem-solving savvy, a frequent demolition of the fourth wall, and impeccable '90s fashion sense.
