'Little Pete' Grew Up to School Ma$e, See Jessica Biel's Boobs
Danny Tamberelli is THE child star of the 90’s. No, really. Besides being in The Mighty Ducks, he was on all of Nickelodeon’s best shows: The Adventures of Pete & Pete, All That, and Figure It Out. If Nickelodeon were every 90’s kid’s dream town, he’d have been the mayor.
The show ended in 1996 but has recently been resurrected thanks to the internet’s obsession with nostalgia and all things 90’s. Just by searching “pete and pete” you’ll stumble across multiple articles and Reddit rabbit holes that state that the show ““>invented the modern-day hipster.”
The 32-year-old New Jersey native was only seven when he auditioned for Pete & Pete. “I went up and auditioned in New York and when I came out of the audition the director, producer, and casting director walked out after me,” he remembers. “My mom had thought I had done something wrong because they don’t usually come out after you, and she was like ‘Oh my gosh! What did he do?! I’m so sorry!’ And they were like ‘No, no no! We want to use him, we think he’s great!’”
Pete & Pete first aired in 1993 and followed two red-headed brothers, both named Pete, in an unconventional examination of suburban life. Tamberelli’s character “Little Pete” would always get into trouble, and his older brother “Big Pete” would narrate their adventures.
