S2 E18 Eye of a Stranger

In class, Robbie, Hamilton and Allen’s teacher are assigned a black history oral report. Hamilton and Robbie discuss their report plans. Allen says he’s ready to go, but his report is on the color black, rather than black Americans. The teacher pulls Allen aside and clarifies the report is on black history. She gives him a second chance.

Allen and Robbie talk about race in the attic. A robot crashes in the attic. The robot says it’s come to Earth for its career. The robot and Allen talks trash about humans, which Robbie gets upset about. Josh shows the robot a tour of the house. The robot decides to eat Robbie’s project and she gets mad.

The robot tells Allen about slavery and the civil rights struggle, and the next day at school, Allen confronts Robbie about how she didn’t tell him about slavery, and they get into an argument. Robbie tells Allen to find out the truth for himself. Josh shows the robot around Delport, but he fails to grasp human society.

Allen decides to remove the spray paint from a mural, and a bad boy gets mad & almost beats up Allen until a crowd of beachgoers gathers around him and scare him off. At home, Josh says he has the memory banks of the robot, and Allen sees humans aren’t as bad as the robot says it is.

The robot freaks out when the main 3 confront him and runs into a dump truck. Josh decides to get onto a moving dump truck and recovers the robot. At school, Hamilton gives his black history report on a guy who helped the development of trains. Allen does his report on many different black people. In the attic, the robot leaves to go home. Robbie and Allen make up.

My Allen Strange Story + Show Review

I was born during the original run of the show, so I never had a chance to watch it on TV, and I was a huge fan of Nickelodeon as a kid, but from 11 1/2 and-a-half to 21-and-a-half I didn’t watch it.  I got back into Nick thanks to Drake & Josh, and I haven’t looked back since.  Aside from Allen Strange, I watch Drake & Josh and Double Dare pretty regularly and sometimes iCarly, Victorious, Big Time Rush, Legends of the Hidden Temple and Kenan & Kel when it comes to Nick. I didn’t watch Allen Strange until 2025 because the a lot of the series (including the finale) was lost media and I didn’t want to watch a show with missing episodes, especially if I had no way of knowing how the series was going to end. I made this blog to one, show my appreciation for this great show and two, serve as an archive for the show if it ever gets taken down again. I liked a lot about this show.  I liked all 3 of the main characters & Hamilton, the acting, the writing, the pac...

S3 E17 Life of the Party

Allen eats pop rocks with soda, and bubbles of his head form Xelan style. Then the theme plays. Josh needs someone to watch him during Robbie’s track thing, so Allen gets Manfred. They get Mr. Stevenson’s credit card. On the walk home from school, Josh talks to Plato while Hamilton gets nervous when Allen brings up his birthday. Josh talks about throwing a party, which Allen thinks would be good for Hamilton. At home, Manfred blocks the TV screen from Josh and Allen’s video game. After Josh suggests that Manfred try on Mr. Stevenson’s clothes, him and Allen order food from a bunch of places. Mr. Stevenson calls Manfred and he lectures the two boys after they make a mess and are late for school. Allen and Josh hang out with Plato as Josh prepares his gaming thumb. Hamilton comes to the house and is surprised with a birthday cake, which brings back PTSD of a house fire to him and he freaks out. Manfred quickly ends the party, but more people come anyway. Josh tricks Manfred into thinking...

Character Review: Robbie Stevenson

  Robbie is a 15 year old girl played by the obscure actress Erin J. Dean.  She’s a surfer, she’s on the track team and she also makes jewelry. Supposedly she has bad grades on the show, to the extent that she was excited to get a B in one episode (I don’t remember which one) because she had never gotten a grade that high in her life, and she was 15. I didn’t see her as stupid. Robbie may not always get along with her brother Josh, and sometimes even Allen, but they always find their way back to each other. The friendship between Robbie and Allen was so close that I was surprised that they didn’t kiss by the end of the show like Aang and Katara did in Avatar’s finale. Robbie has her angry moments and she can usually win an argument, but she’s usually calm and when she’s calm, she’s a friendly and pleasant person. 95% of her actions are on the side of good, and when they aren’t, they’re usually not too bad to begin with. Just selfish teenage girl BS, not actual evil like Sam Pu...
