Nick's Nickelodeon Notes

Season 4, Episode 14. This is another episode in the series that is widely known as one of the most popular. "Steered Straight" gets Drake and Josh into a whole mess of trouble, and danger. The episode starts with Drake getting him and Josh tickets to see Josh's favorite band play at a nightclub called the Reptile Room, where you have to be over 21 to get into. Drake planned ahead, and got them both fake ID's. Their names were Jefferson Steelflex and Alvin Yakatori. Solid names, this should go off without a hitch right? Wrong. Very wrong. The boys are brought home by two officers who suggest to their parents to enlist them in a steered straight program. The program shows people what it's like to be arrested. Walter and Audrey agree, and the boys are arrested and taken from the house. However, on the way to the police station, the officer responds to a robbery nearby. Things go awry very quickly when the robber steals the police car with Drake and Josh s

Season 4, Episode 1. Josh loves Oprah. He knows it, Drake knows it, we all know it. This episode has to be included in my blogs because it is certainly one of my favorites in the series. As the title suggests, this episode isn't really that joyful for Josh. But we're getting ahead of ourselves, let's start from the beginning! It's Josh's birthday, and Drake forgets all about it. He tells Josh to meet him at The Premiere later in the day, something Josh believes is a surprise party for him. When he arrives to the theater, he finds out Drake threw a surprise party for his new girlfriend instead. When he finally realizes Drake actually forgot his birthday, he gets upset and storms out. Shortly after, Helen breaks it to Drake that it's Josh's birthday too, and Drake then makes it his mission to make it up to Josh. He rushes home to tell Josh he got them both tickets to a live recording of the Oprah show with backstage passes from one of his band members&

Season 3, Episode 16. Throughout the course of the Drake and Josh series, Megan pulled an incredible amount of pranks on her brothers. During the intro of this episode, the boys talk about just a few of the things she has done to them. Drake recalls when she had him enlisted into the Mexican army (classic), and Josh talks about how she once died his underwear pink. He then continues to show his pink underwear to the camera as proof. Towards the beginning of the episode, Megan gets a brand new telescope. She then takes it outside and uses Josh's laptop to control it and Drake's nice jacket so it doesn't get wet. When the brothers catch her doing this, she lays down on the ground and screams until Walter rushes out. She then tells Walter that Drake and Josh pushed her down onto the ground and the boys get in trouble and are sent inside.  That's when they decided that enough was enough, and they devise a plan to prank Megan. When Megan is helping Walt

Season 2, Episode 1. "The Bet" is one of the most iconic Drake and Josh episodes of all time, and for good reason. It has a plot that keeps the viewers intrigued throughout the entirety of the episode, great jokes, and lots of candy. After the boys forget to pick up Megan from a friend's house during a rainstorm, it is brought to their attention that Drake is addicted to video games and Josh is addicted to junk food. They end up making a bet to see who could go longer without their addictions, and Megan drafts a contract for them to sign. The loser has to die their hair pink.  During the course of the bet, things get very difficult for both of the brothers. Josh's grandma (as he affectionately refers to as "Grammy") sends him the newest gaming platform as a gift: The Gamesphere.  Similarly, Drake's body goes into shock without eating so much junk food all of the sudden, and he develops a horrible rash on his face.  Walter and Audry also get

Another one of my favorite episodes from Drake and Josh is Season 4, Episode 15: "Megan's First Kiss". This episode starts with Megan acting strangely and the brothers think she is up to no good. She abruptly ends a phone call when they enter the room and also randomly measures their necks. They start investigating and follow her to The Premiere with genius disguises, only to find out she is on a date. They also made a great catch phrase: The brothers notice the boy, Corey, is intending on kissing Megan during the movie, so they decide to get closer and intervene.  They end up embarrassing both Corey and Megan, and Corey breaks up with her and leaves. Drake and Josh end up feeling bad for ruining Megan's first relationship, and invite Corey over to the house to convince him to take her back. This involves the brothers having to give Corey multiple belongings, including one of Drake's guitars

Season 4, Episode 12 Now that this blog has reviewed the majority of the major characters of Drake and Josh, it's time to dive into some of my favorite episodes the show has released. The first of which is "Josh is Done", which is the highest rated episode of the series on imdb.com (9.4/10) and for good reason. It broke away from the goofy, lighthearted humor that the show normally used (although there was still plenty of that) and added an element of deep emotion that was very uncommon to Producer Dan Schneider's style. It was a turning point for the show that sent a powerful message to treat others with respect, no matter what your social status may be.  The intro to the episode explains that both Drake and Josh have a huge chemistry exam coming up. Each brother prepared for the test exactly how you would expect them to: Josh studied all night every night for a week, and Drake played a lot of ping pong. The morning of the test, Drake leaves Josh beh
