''The Adventures of Pete & Pete'' is an American children's television series created by Will McRobb and Chris Viscardi for Nickelodeon. It centers on the humorous and surreal adventures of two brothers both named Pete Wrigley, along with an eccentric cast of family, friends, and enemies. ''The Adventures of Pete & Pete'' began on Nickelodeon in 1989, as minute-long shorts that aired as interstitials. Owing to the popularity of the shorts, five half-hour specials were made, followed by a regular half-hour series that ran for three seasons from 1993 to 1996. Reruns of the shorts and the shows now run on TeenNick as part of their block The Splat on October 5, 2015. Jason Ankeny of AllMusic called the series "the greatest children's show ever",〔(Music From the Adventures of Pete & Pete - Polaris | Songs, Reviews, Credits, Awards | AllMusic )〕 while IGN called it "one of the most well-written kids shows ever".〔(The Adventures of Pete & Pete: Season One - IGN )〕 The first two seasons were released on DVD in 2005; the third was planned for 2006 but was indefinitely postponed. == Setting == ''Pete & Pete'' is set in the town of Wellsville (the state is implied, but never explicitly mentioned, to be Wellsville, New York). An allusion to its location comes during "When Petes Collide", when the Petes' father runs four hours to the Canadian border to get rid of his bowling ball, Rolling Thunder. Portions of Wellsville were fictionalized for the purposes of the show; Glurt County, mentioned in "Yellow Fever" and "The Good, the Bad and the Lucky", does not exist in any state. The show was filmed largely in South Orange, New Jersey with location shots done in a variety of other spots around northern New Jersey, including the Willowbrook Mall in Wayne, New Jersey. The exteriors of Pete & Pete's house (as seen in the credit sequence and other shots) were filmed on Woodridge Place in Leonia, New Jersey. The football field used for various episodes is that of Bayonne High School in Bayonne, New Jersey. The fictional Wellsville High School's mascot is a squid. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Adventures of Pete & Pete」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
