(see this users gallery) Cousin Skeeter aired from 1998 until 2000 on Nickelodeon.
Cousin Skeeter, a sort of updated version of Alf, was a live action sitcom about a shy 13 year old black kid whose family moved from Los Angeles to New York City and promptly took in a cousin from Atlanta who became his new best friend. Bobby ( Robert Ri'chard), was your typical insecure teen, but their was nothing typical about Skeeter ( voiced by Bill Bellamy)-he was a loud, wisecracking, trouble-causing, girl-chasing, cool-dude, who also happened to be a puppet ( though nobody seemed to notice). Skeeter dragged cautious Bobby into all sorts of exploits, which in the end, we were told, helped the lad open up and " bring some fun into his life." Andre and Vanessa ( Rondell Sheridan, Angela Means), were Bobby's easygoing parents, and Nina ( Meagan Good), was the chatterbox neighbor girl, on whom Bobby had a crush.
Theme Song Lyrics
You know how he does and you know he'll stay afloat
And I anta do is hug ya cos I like your style
And I did the way you move, and the way you do your thing
Skeeter keep it coming on cus we love you crazy. Skeeter's the one for me.
He knows how to get down. Knows how to party, baby.
All the girls know his style.
Skeeter drives us wild with his sly profile.
Skeeter Stays on my mind (on my mind) I watch Skeeter all the time.
Got to watch his every show (every show, yeah). Got to let the people know.
Skeeter stays on my mind (Skeeter's what I want)
I watch Skeeter all the time (and Skeeter's what I need)
Gotta watch his every show (I love your pretty brown eyes)
Got to let the people know (lets sit back and watch TV) |
