Double Dare 2000 is an attempted update of the classic Nickelodeon game show Double Dare. As the name implies, it aired in 2000.

Why It Sucks

  1. A terrible host in Jason Harris.
  2. Tiffany Phelps, the co-host, tries too hard to be hip, and is too shrill.
  3. Atrocious Triple Dare Challenge mechanic. Original host Marc Summers (who was reduced to executive consultant) admitted the show would’ve been better without it.
  4. The asinine WCW 2000 week. This was the year where WCW was already at an all-time low, and this event didn't help whatsoever.
  5. Some of the new obstacles are too difficult.
  6. It was so bad, it took 18 years for another Double Dare revival to come.

The Only Redeeming Quality

  1. The logo is good.

Trivia

  • Unlike the original Double Dare series (the Paramount+ release of which does not include any of the episodes that weren't aired on Nick GaS or any spin-offs and some episodes of which run at 30 fps or suffer from tape fuzz, making them look like they were taken from a VHS tape rather than a master tape), DD2000 has been preserved in its original quality and has every episode accounted for.
