I’m gonna say just like in my state of Vermont when I was a kid, I’m gonna guess that in the town where 1990something take places, The Disney Afternoon is on an NBC affiliate (preempting soap opera: Santa Barbara), due to the fact that the Summer Olympics in that year were on NBC. I used to watch the Disney Afternoon on my Vermont NBC affiliate: WPTZ Channel 5, but they didn’t show it until the second season in 1991.
@ Jayster- Yeah, I can see that, Jenny trying to get the gold medal for hucking mud at cars goes too far when the girls and Jenny starts throwing mud at each other for Jenny’s interrupting the cheer squad’s “car wash for unknown charity.”
Cookie eating is not an Olympic sport.
Dan and Dave? My Lore: 1990’s Olympics Games skill is a bit weak in anything that isn’t Izzy-related. Someone older than me, or well-versed in this stuff, care to explain?
Is this going to be the “Jenny is bored” strip that we’ve all sort-of-awaited? One girl, no cartoons, out to leave a trail of destruction behind her of burned out cars and played to death playground equipment, ending in her eventual arrest. Or not, but I don’t think that she’s going to dream sequence herself into a 1960’s music band, which leaves her to drag Eric into whatever the chapter title doesn’t give enough information to guess at.

Then… Ask Michelle to build a time machine, and use it to go back to ancient Greek times, Jenny? Huck mud at their chariot? ^_^
For anyone who, like myself, is confused about the “Dan and Dave” thing, a quick Wikipedia search provided the answer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_%26_Dave
Jenny? Board? How god help us all!!!
Huck?
Is that a verb?

THIS one, BTW (not some original iteration) https://1990somethingcomic.com/comic/february-23-1992/
@Zach Kenny – That actually sounds more interesting. It’s kinda rare seeing these two hang out together for an entire storyline.

@ Jayster: Or maybe she’ll be wanting to go all in on whatever her scheme will be, like that last Olympic comic.
An Olympics arc? This should be a fun one.
Watch Michelle inadvertently give Jenny the idea to start her own Olympics and get blamed for it lol
