SK8 - TV

If you were skating in 1990, you may remember the short lived skateboarding show on Nickelodeon called Sk8-TV. This was actor Matthew Lillard's first appearance on TV/film, and even then he was annoying. I guess he's best known as one of the dudes from the movie Scream. At the time SK8-TV was the only show on TV about skateboarding, this is before skateboarding was actually considered a sport with X-games and ESPN recognition. I certainly thought it was worth a second season but I guess the ratings weren't as great as 'double dare'. It was the perfect time for a skateboarding show, this is when street skateboarding was really taking off, all the new, smaller, companies were opening up, and tricks were starting to get real crazy...



Now if you post these SK8 - TV episodes on youtube they get ganked immediately, let's hope my blog here won't get shut down as a result of me posting. I have about 7 full episodes of the show out of the maybe 12 that were made? I'm going to try and get all of them up. This one here features Ed Templeton, Joe Johnson, Dave Duncan, Mario Rublacava, and Tom Knox.
