In this episode of the 90s Rewind Report, hosts Michael Reagan, Nate Lane, and Brayden Decker rewatch The Adventures of Pete & Pete, Season 2, Episode 2: “Grounded for Life.” which originally aired on Nickelodeon September 4, 1994.
Little Pete is grounded for the entire month of July after one of his wild science experiments destroys his dad’s precious lawn. It couldn’t come at a worse time—just before the long-standing lawn rivalry with neighbor Mr. Lerdner comes to a head. The stakes? The loser has to mow both lawns all summer.
So Little Pete, naturally, starts plotting his great escape. Think Shawshank Redemption, but with more crabgrass. His deadline? Independence Day.
This episode dives deep into the Wrigley family dynamics—especially the relationship between Little Pete and his dad. There are themes of pride, ego, forgiveness, and unexpected friendship, all wrapped in Nickelodeons signature quirky 90s tone.
