Marc Summers is best known for his eleven seasons of The Food Network’s hit show Unwrapped, but for millions of us twenty-somethings, Summers was the host of Nickelodeon’s iconic 80′s game show Double Dare. I, like many of my friends wanted to be a contestant on Double Dare and “take the physical challenge” through the wackiest obstacle course ever created for television. The show’s popularity (over 500 episodes!) changed the way youth centric shows were developed and many credit Summers’ wit and charm for Nickelodeon’s early success.
