"Figure it Out"
on Nickelodeon

March 1, 2002 - As you can probably see, I haven't done much in awhile. However, I just updated the stats page to include Season 3 (of which I have 39 of the 40 episodes), and fixed a few inaccuracies on there. If you find more mistakes let me know. Also, in the future I hope to add more episode summaries to Season 2, even though I don't have all the episode numbers, because I know I wrote them all out at some point. They may as well be on there, just without episode numbers, like I have for Season 3. And, if any of you have anything to contribute to the site, IM me or e-mail me at puck71@aol.com. One last thing: the show only airs these days on Nickelodeon GAS (Games & Sports), if you want to watch it. Catch you guys later!!

May 2, 1999 - I'm up to 31 episodes compiled on the Season 3 page. Also, I'm sure you all saw the ad for "Figure it Out: Wild Style" which is the next season of FIO. Be sure to check that out.

November 14, 1998 - I've put more episodes in the Season 3 episode guide and statistics page. Also, Meagan Good and Joanne Dumas were added to the cast page.

November 1, 1998 - Season 3 is underway!! "Figure it Out - Family Style" is the same as before, but just a little different. As the name implies, in addition to the kid, there is a family member on the show also. I've started the Season 3 episode guide and statistics page, and added some new Season 3 panelists to the cast page.

July 16, 1998 - I thank all of you who have visited this page. I have been updating them, and today I have uploaded all of these changes: New cast members with updated statistics and links!! Again, thank you, enjoy, and put your slime helmets on!!

Most of the information I have is from watching the show every night at 6:00 EST, with a few details coming from the Web and AOL. What's on this site is some basic facts about the show and an episode guide in progress. As I watch each show, I take certain statistics, and put them on this web site.

I hope you like what you see, and if you have anything to add to my page, please e-mail me!
