Kurt and Courtney - TJ and Spinelli parallel
TJ and Spinelli have some similarities to the 90s grunge couple, Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love.
- Kurt, the lead singer and guitarist of Nirvana, would in this case be Spinelli.
- Courtney, the lead singer and guitarist of Hole, would in this case be TJ.
Both TJ and Courtney are charismatic leaders who love attention.
Both Kurt and Spinelli seem tough on the outside but have an artsy/sensitive side.
Although, it is important now to note: This is only a headcanon. It isn’t a real inspiration.

Time (useful for fanfiction)
- 1 How old would the gang be in each year?
- 1.1 In 1998...
- 1.2 In 1999...
- 1.3 In 2000...
- 1.4 In 2001...
- 1.5 In 2002...
- 1.6 In 2003..
- 1.7 In 2004...
- 1.8 In 2005...
We're assuming the gang was 9 years old (4th graders) in 1997.
They would be 5th graders. Key things that happened in 1998:
- Titanic became the first movie to raise over 1 bilion dollars
- Britney Spears released "...Baby One More Time", changing pop music forever.
- Google was released in a California Garage.
They would be 6th graders. Key things that happened in 1999:
- People all over the world freaked out computers would crash at midnight, 31st December because it would not recognize the year "00".
- The very first episode of SpongeBob Squarepants first aired at Nickelodeon, in May.
- In April, the tragic Columbin…
Fun Fact
Spinelli was created around the riot grrrl movement, in its rising era on the 90s. Her purpose, however, wasn't the riot grrl movement exactly.
- The riot grrl movement was known for its empowerment of females in the punk/grunge industry, similiar to Spinelli's rejection of feminity and agressive personality, something singers like Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill) also had.
- Bikini Kill hits, such as Double Dare Ya and Rebel Girl could make you think about Spinelli. Double Dare Ya is about females being themselves and challenging society's expectations, exactly what Spinelli does.
- Many singers of said movement adapted styles that remark Spinelli, like leather jackets, big boots and etc.
- One of the main features in riot grrrl was aggresivety and screams, whi…
Random Spinelli Headcanon (I'm new to fandom sorry if mistake)
I think Spinelli would listen to Nirvana. Look, she wouldn't like pop and she totally would be grunge/punk. Her favorite song would be "In Bloom" I think.
Gretchen and Spinelli Thought
I had this weird thought about Gretchen and Spinelli. I think that if they were Ninja Turtles fans, Donatello would be Gretchen's favorite and Raphael would be Spinelli's favorite.
Recess DVD and Blu-Ray Release
I want Recess (the whole series) to get a DVD and Blu-Ray release. Does anyone know or have any idea as to why it hasn't happened yet?
Dr. Barker
Dr. Ivo Barker is the science teacher at 98th Street School. He is only seen in the episode Germs and Warfare, when Russ was running to the bathroom.
Barker is the personification of the mad-scientist archetype: He is quite eccentric, but still kind and caring towards his students.
The Nancys
The Nancys are the 98th Street School versions of the Ashleys. Like the Ashleys, they are snobby and rude, but also ambitious.
Nancy Grimhilde (Nancy Gr)
Nancy Tremaine (Nancy T) (second in command)
Nancy Gothel (Nancy Go)

My thoughts of the episode Yes Mikey, Santa Does Shaved
I've had some thoughts of this Christmas episode. I hate it when Randall Weems told the Recess Gang that Santa Claus is not real. But Santa Claus is real in our hearts.❤️

My thoughts of Gus' Last Stand
I have some thoughts of Gus' Last Stand. I didn't like how Gelman is picking on Gus for no reason.
I'm glad that Gus took his father's advice.
Three things he tried to avoid Gelman but failed:
- Sticking close to his friends
- Telling the teacher
- Wearing a disguise
It's better to stand up to a bully, rather than fight back or being peaceful. Violence/fighting is NEVER the answer and doesn't solve anything.
My thoughts of The Break-Up episode
I have some thoughts about the episode The Break-Up in Season 2.
When I first saw the episode, I didn't like how Vince, Spinelli, Gretchen, Mikey and Gus argued about whose best friend TJ is. It was very mean how they didn't want to be friends with him anymore and block him from sitting with them. I don't think that it's TJ's fault about how he couldn't decide.
Im glad the gang was back together and all apologized to each other for being mean towards one another.

My Favorite song of Recess: Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen
I love listening to this song from Recess. Nobody knows the trouble I've seen.
I've heard this song before from The Lion King by Zazu.
Recess Stories; Rigelli's Masterpiece
Rigelli and her friends were playing basketball when Dawson plopped the ball in her face. This made Rigelli attack Dawson, but Mickey restrained her. Rigelli promised to be calm, but still attacked Dawson. After her friends reprimanded her, Rigelli stormed off. She first attacked the Megan's clubhouse, then destroyed some chalk. Rigelli then saw Sesame Boy doing chalk drawing and helped him with it, but she really got into it.
Soon, the gang found her drawing. When they stood on top of Ol' Crusty, the drawing was strange and wonderful, according to Mickey. They then invited other children to look at it. Scammer Kid even sold off Rigelli's math art drawings. There were even students from Woodfleet Art College.
However, Mr Boyd found it and de…
Happy Birthday to Gretchen 2022
After one year, I am here once again to remind you that according to Outcast Ashley, Gretchen Grundler's birthday is on March 23rd.
There is apparently no other known birth-date among other characters.
This means she would be 2A years old today. This was certainly caused by the duodecimal system.
Recess Stories; Economics of Recess
CJ was heading back to school after being sick for a week, complaining about doing long division. When she got to school, her friends welcomed her back and explained that Rigelli took over as leader while CJ was sick.
Just before entering, a guard grabbed CJ's arm and asked for 3 stickers, which Vance gave. The gang explained that the latest craze are Lazestickers, which are stickers of lazy characters, like Lazycus and Lazy the dwarf. When CJ was about to drink at the water fountain, another guard asked for 2 stickers, which Vance paid for again. The gang then saw Brinklow being popular and they said that Brinklow has friend stickers.
At Recess, Mickey gave CJ a single Lazesticker, which was of Lazycus. After school, they found that Morriso…
Recess Stories; Some Friend
The Recess Gang were late for assembly, but they made it, however they were caught by Brinklow and forced out. They had detention where they had to watch assembly on TV. They then had to do a spelling test.
The Gang were upset at Brinklow, but then they remembered a Senorita Fuchion event they were attending that weekend. Everyone did the cartoon call-out, except CJ. Her friends wondered why. She said she wouldn't be attending the event that weekend.
The rest of the gang tried to get why out of their friend the next day, but she refused to let it out. She actually did her homework that evening. Who was that girl.
On Friday night, they saw CJ buying a present at Morrison's, which she said was for a different friend and left. Rachel then came i…
Recess Stories; Operation Field Trip
Every child at 98th Street School were going on a field trip that was treated like a military operation. They were going to their favourite zoo, Magi-Zoo. On Miss Ropey's bus, the one where Eartha was driving, Miss Ropey had them singing This Old Man until they were bored of it.
When Greta had predicted they were halfway to Magi-Zoo, the bus suddenly broke down. When Eartha checked inside it, smoke came out, making all the kids panic. There would be a replacement bus which would take 5 hours.
CJ suggested to Miss Ropey that she let everyone off the bus for a while, which she agreed to. Vance wondered where they are. Greta deduced they were at an abandoned school. CJ pulled cloth off a sign that said Holgates School of Cars.
The kids watched E…
Recess Stories: Principal For A Day
Brinklow was at a stall waiting for nominations for being Principal for a Day, which Rachel put a lot in and Brinklow announced that Rachel could win.
CJ was waiting to kick a kickball with a metal shoe, but when she did so, she sent it through Principal Prickly’s window. She tried to escape, but Mr Boyd caught her. Prickly had her sign something CJ reluctantly did while saying “This A-wors.” When she left, Mr Boyd suggested that CJ be Principal For A Day and reminded Prickly that Brinklow was quite like CJ when he was “randomly” chosen. Brinklow then brought Prickly his mint, which he accepted.
At assembly, CJ was in fact chosen to be Principal, much to Rachel’s shock. The next day, CJ promised to be “the kid’s Principal Charming.” In the m…
Recess Stories: Bad Hair Day
CJ, Greta And Rigelli were going somewhere for girls, which the boys felt was unfair. Then one kid said “That Mickey kid’s going for it again,” Turned out Mickey was trying to blow the biggest bubble from bubble gum. But one kindergartener popped it before Vance could stop it. Now Mickey’s head was covered with gum.
”He’s his own medicine,” one kid shouted, then everyone laughed. Mickey freaked out since this meant that his parents would ground him for a month. Russ offered to cut his hair, which Mickey reluctantly agreed to.
Russ DID cut Mickey’s hair (and called himself “Mr. Roose” while doing it) but Mickey didn’t like it. Rachel spotted it and Russ told her to tell him he has a good cut, which she did while adding she heard that the ban…
Recess Stories; The Game
One day, a poor kid ran outside the 98th Street playground and threw a film into the playground, which Russ found. He showed his friends and Greta explained it was the film and playing sets of Abimko, which kids become addicted to. Mickey got frightened of and CJ unknowingly threw it in the Digger's hole. Jade and Pam went to Morrison's to get more of the films and playing sets and soon, EVERYONE gets into playing it, even Rachel. Soon the playground became quiet.
Even CJ's friends get into it, one by one, so CJ tries to join them, but everyone had become so addicted to the game they had become zombies. They surround CJ, chanting You WILL play, until the kindergartners come kicking a ball, at which point, everyone remembers what they used t…
Recess Stories; The Tooth Fairy Incident
One night, back when the Recess gang was in 1st Grade, Mikey had been to the dentist because one of his grown-up teeth was growing over a baby tooth. The next day, the baby tooth came out and Mikey was writing his letter to the Tooth Fairy, even asking his teacher, Miss Barr, for ideas. The problem was, none of his friends believe in the Tooth Fairy, so Mikey invited them to a sleepover to his house.
When the gang came round, Mikey revealed his intention; his friends were to stay up awake until the Tooth Fairy came. Sure enough, the Tooth Fairy DID come. She gave Mikey 1 dollar and introduced herself to his friends; that her name is Toothclod and she lives in a temple. She then magically poofed away.
The next day, the gang were extremely tir…
Recess Stories; The Trial
One Recess, the kids were having a dirt-clod war, when the Recess Gang heard a painful scream nearby. It was Rachel, who had been hit by a rock. When Rigelli came, Rachel blamed HER for throwing the rock. Most of the student body turned on Rigelli.
The next day, the Megans suggested giving Rigelli a swirley, but Queen Barb said there will be a trial first. At the trial, Greata acted as the jury. CJ insisted that Rigelli tell the true story, but she refused. Rachel told HER story, but CJ said it couldn't possibly be true. Greta called Mickey to the stand, who said similar to Rachel, then cried and said that war is NOT a game.
CJ then called Rigelli to the stand, then her friends told her that it's not right to let people give her a swirley s…
Recess Stories: 6th Grade Christmas
It is Christmas at 98th Street School. Queen CJ and King Vance and their friends Rigalli, Greta, Mickey and Rus are busy decorating for it. Rus is helping his girlfriend Library Kid and his fifth grade friend Sesame Boy. Mickey finds his old friend, Stewart, and he promises to get HER something for Christmas.
When Mickey is at home on Christmas Eve, he helps his family decorate the tree. Suddenly, there was a little rat-a-tat at the door. Mickey opened it to find a stray abandoned cat. It had white fur and was male. The Beaver family decide to take it in. Mickey then spent the night watching his favourite show Tomas and Friends with the cat, deciding to call him Fuffley.
On Christmas Day, Mickey found Stewart and took her home to meet Fuffle…
Recess Stories: Middle School
It is the end of 6th grade for CJ and her friends. King Vance and Queen CJ coronate 5th grader Kyle Haunttowers as the new King. CJ and Rigelli go to Spyro B. Agold Middle School to start 7th grade, only to find that the school was being run by Dr. Hetter (who they opposed in the episode Prickly Is Leaving). Mickey reunites with his old music teacher, along with her husband, who also oppose Dr. Hetter.
They managed to create a scenario where Dr. Hetter broke down and surrendered, making him leave the school in shame. Mickey’s music teacher became the new head of the middle school.
Recess Stories: Rumour Mill
Everyone kept pushing Mickey around one Recess. His friends were sick of him being a pushover, but Mickey was “used to stuff like this by now.”
The next day, Mickey said he “slept like a baby.” When he passed the swings, Dill was scared of him for some reason and offered him his swing, when the previous day, he has snatched it from him. The rest of the gang were confused by this, so Dill told them he heard a rumour that at school the day before, some girl knocked crisps out of Mickey’s hands, so Mickey pushed the girl into the boy’s bathroom, which took Mickey by surprise. Dill said he heard it from Rachel, so the gang went to confront her, despite Mickey’s protests that he wasn’t bothered by rumours. Rachel said that Digger Rachel told her…
The Recess Gang of The Future
What do you guys think of The Recess Gang of The Future?
This was taken from the show's third season episode "A Career to Remember".
I've seen the episode a while back and I thought it was pretty interesting seeing the members of The Recess Gang being depicted as adults with careers.
A couple of things I didn't like about it though were Mikey being depicted as a bard/minstrel and Spinelli's negative behavior.
The first reason is that his parents were dressed as hippies. The second reason is that he was seen meditating with Guru Kid in the show's second season episode "The Break-Up". The third reason is that he was dressed as a hippie in the "My Green Tambourine" music video at the end of School's Out. The fourth and last reason is that Spinell…
Recess Stories: The Gashonie Kids
One Recess, CJ and Vance were reading The Gashonie Kids. It was about a girl and a boy who solved mysteries. They decided THEY wanted to solve mysteries too, despite Greta telling them that it’s a difficult task.
At lunch, the 2 kids could smell strawberry jam pudding. They also wondered why Mr Boyd was leaning towards the hot food. Suddenly, a janitor “accidentally” bumped into them and was rude to them. They wondered where Harry was. They interrogated Rachel and she told them that the janitor’s name was Gaylord Ramon and he was substituting for Harry.
They asked for Gaylord’s record and Brinklow only let them have it after Rigelli threatened to beat the snot out of him. They also found a bubble gum wrapper with the numbers 19 16 and 25 on …
Recess Stories: Bonny Fever
Note: Since it’s my birthday this Wednesday, I figured I might as well do this story about Mickey Beaver’s birthday to promote it.
Mrs Beaver took Mickey to the bus stop as she checks what he has for school, “Book bag, lunch money, tissue, underpants.” She then reminded him that it was his 10th birthday that Wednesday (because it’s MY birthday that day) so starting Thursday, he can wait for the bus on his own, which made him miss his mom doing stuff for him.
At Recess, Mickey’s friends talk about what they will do when THEY turn 10. They then see Mickey watching the Kindergarteners. When the bell rang, the kindergarteners rush past and Mickey notice that one of them had dropped their sippy cup. He noticed that it was modelled after Bonky the …
One Piece-Related Topic
I don't know if there are any One Piece fans here, but if there are, I'd to pose a question. If T.J. and the gang were big fans of One Piece, who would their favorite Straw Hats be? I'll start with my picks.
T.J.-Luffy
Vince-Zoro
Gus-Usopp
Mikey-Sanji or Brook
Spinelli-Nami
Gretchen-Robin or Chopper
Recess Stories: The Pest
Miss Ropey’s class were reading out of a textbook, when Greta kept being prodded by Godfrey Darkssage, who was sitting behind her. She kept getting in trouble just for saying « OW! »
At Recess, Greta complained to her friends about it, so her friends confronted Godfrey about it. At first, Godfrey denied it, but then said it was because he loved Greta, then he shouted that out loud for everyone to hear. This led to all the students singing « Greta and Godfrey, Sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. »
Eventually, Godfrey became equally annoying, making Greta chocolate pudding. Greta tried to correct everyone’s beliefs by telling them it was a one-sided crush, but they just mocked her instead. All of the students kept singing « Greta has a boyfriend…
Happy 25th Anniversary to Possibly the First Recording Day of Recess Ever!
Hello everyone, today is the 25th anniversary of when Recess had its first possible recording day ever. The first take was heard during the beginning of the Recess Gag Reel, and it had differences to the final version of "The Break In" since it was pitched as a pilot and does not have additional removals and revisions at the time. There may be some other recordings that are also recorded on that date as well. Well, that's all I can talk for now. Hope you have a great day, and stay safe.
Recess Stories: The Shiner
CJ’s parents were driving her to school one day. Mrs Rottweiler says that everyone will be amused when they find out what happened to her eye the previous weekend. When CJ arrived to school and met her friends, they all asked what happened to her eye, but she refused to tell. Her friends then all came to the conclusion that she had been a hero, which Rachel overheard and told everyone.
Everyone treated CJ like a hero, even Miss Ropey and the gym teacher. Shulman even gave him cookies, so CJ agreed to all this treatment. Queen Barb knighted her Dame CJ the Brave. Then there was a ceremony, in which kids gave her gifts. Sesame Boy gave her a sesame which was in the shape of Baberaham Lincoln (the female version of Abraham Lincoln). CJ was abo…
Recess Stories: Dawson and his Crew
Towards the end of term, Queen Barb was giving the Recess Gang medals for foiling the Superintendent’s plan to make them were school uniform. Dawson was jealous, HE wanted that glory, so he fired his 2 team mates and recruited Craig Jones, Swinger Boy, Marsh the Worst, Brinklow and Rachel to be in his version of the Recess Gang. Brinklow introduced them to the main gang after they calmed down a war between 2nd and 3rd graders.
Eventually, Dawson’s new crew started being one step ahead of the gang, from pulling a prank how Mr Boyd to peaceful protesting against the ban on chocolate waffles, which they got glory for, to which Miss Ropey clapped to. Soon, they did everything the gang could have done, like setting up a stall for cootie shots. D…
The Game is Released!
June 6 is Paul Germain's birthday! To celebrate this special day, I decided to release The Game today!
The Game is called Ajimbo and appeared the first time in the episode written by Peter Gaffney. However, after this episode, there are only some minor references.
It is possible that no one knows how to play it, I am hoping someone manages to play my implementation and learn something else about it.
I have been planning to develop it for several months, but I managed to do so during this week.
Do not worry, no one is going to become addicted to it, it is barely playable.
Enjoy it here: https://tggtt.github.io/TheGame/
Update: I released the source as CC-by-SA, just like the wiki. Now you can reuse the graphics here as well if you wish: https://…
Recess Stories: The Dudette
The Recess Gang were heading into the vicinity of 98th Street School when they noticed a woman swinging on the swings. Mickey wondered if she was “Swinger Boy’s mom.” They went up to her and she said it was “good to be back at good Ol’ 98th Street Elementary,” and said her name was Frankie Dudettecow, which CJ recognised as the name of her heroine. Suddenly the bell rang, which Frankie recognised. Russ wasn’t sure who this “Dudettecow girl” was. CJ took Russ to the pavement and pointed to a patch which read “Smallfoot Boyd was here.” Russ remarked that Miss Dudettecow had to have gone to Bowland Wild Boar Park to be Prankster Princess, which CJ confirmed and glorified over the fact that she shook her hand.
In class, Miss Ropey introduced Mi…
Recess Stories: The Girl Was Trouble
One Recess, Mr Boyd gathered all the students in line to seek out a “culprit.” This culprit turned out to be Greta Grobler. Her friends tried to convince Mr Boyd that Greta is the best kid in school, but Greta claimed that she was “nothing but trouble.” Mr Boyd then took her to Miss Orange’s office, where Rita Bassey was waiting. She asked Greta what she did to get into trouble. Greta hesitated, but then began to tell her:
It all started on Greta’s birthday, where she was given a personal computer, on which there was a brainy ogre called Cooper, which she loved. Greta took Cooper to school with her, where she showed her friends and even had it tell Miss Ropey to repeat a question slower. She even played chess with it.
But one Recess, she ask…
Lottie Danger
Lottie Danger is Dottie Deidger’s 98th Street School counterpart. She is an grumpy old lady who loved to do dangerous stuff in her youth, as her name suggests, and thus she is a retired stunt double
Whenever a ball gets kicked into her yard, she would put it in her shed to keep it safe and thus, her yard is known as “The Yard of No Return.” Because she did dangerous things, and because she wore a radiation suit, she was known as a “dangerous robot” to the kids at the school next door.

This means she would be 33 years old today...
This also implies that Galileo would be at least 23 years old now.
I wonder how it would look disassembled! Would it look like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Galileo?
Recess Stories: Call Me Ray
Harold was rushing to give his “safety man,” Russ, a note. When he saw him, he ran, but tripped up over his laces. Russ tied his shoes for him and Harold said that his mom wants him to pick him up that Thursday. Kids then pushed him and his glasses fell in the drain and Harry had to get them out. Everyone started to like him without his glasses and think he’s a new kid. Eventually, Harry got the glasses and told Russ “on your face or in your case.”
Russ decided that night he was going to be “cool” from then on. And his name’s not Russ.
The next morning, Russ came to school looking cool, threw his glasses on the roof and told his friends to call him “Ray.” That day at school, they were learning about myths surrounding Boars, but Ray misread i…
Recess Stories: Outcast Aubree
The Recess Gang were on their way to school and waiting for Greta to join them. When she finally came, she was in a big box. When asked about it, she said she was hoping to make it into a periscope to see the sunset. When they went to school, they saw the Aubrees (excluding Aubree E) outside wearing pink. They asked Greta if she was “sending herself to Planet Nerdoid.” Finally, Aubree E arrived but wearing blue.
The Aubrees reminded her that Pink Day marked the anniversary of when they met; they were wearing pink that day. They banished her from the clubhouse as well. Aubree E tried to join the Megans, but they were rude to her. Aubree E then met Greta, who was working on her periscope and lent her help. Over time, Aubree and Greta became f…
Recess Stories: Jacques’s Old Folk’s Home

Finally CJ came, so Mickey was about to tell them that he was thinking of taking them to see the old folks at Jacques’s Old Folks Home over the weekend, but CJ tells them that there is a Senorita Fuchion fest. Mickey tried to convince them into going to Jacques, until he went as far as to manipulate them. CJ then agreed to do so for half an hour.
When they went and knocked on the door, an old man told them to go away, but it turned out he thought they were salespeople. He introduced himself as Jacques, the owner of the Old Folk’s Home. Each member of the Gang got different people, Rigelli got Jacques. One woman bored CJ with a story about her being in WW2 with 2 commanding officers, …
Recess Stories: Sphinx Barb
One Recess, there was a fight going on. Mickey wanted Queen Barb to stop it, but it was amusing Barb. Barb then mentioned Queen Wendy, who was Queen was Barb was in 1st grade, between Queen Xandra and Queen Jaqueline, but no one seemed to remember them, which lowered Barb’s self-esteem.
In class, Barb’s teacher mentioned that sphinxes had pyramids built so everyone would remember them, which inspired her. Queen Barb announced to the kids that they were going to build a pyramid, which everyone was looking forward to, and Barb chose Greta to supervise. Greta went to the library to borrow a book about Ancient Egypt. When they started, Russ was worried about getting his clothes messy, so Mickey told him to turn his clothes inside out.
Four days …
Recess Stories: The Pale Kids
One Recess, the Recess Gang were playing kickball against Eric Dawson. Dawson kicked the ball and CJ moved to catch it, which she did, but broke her arm in the process.
After lunch, Mr Boyd said she had to got to Room 101. Dawson laughed at this, because this meant she had to spend Recess with the “Pale Kids,” who were the kids who choose to stay inside during Recess. Dawson told everyone about Tiny Jaywick who got sent to Room 101 and the Pale Kids “got” him.
CJ went to Room 101 where the Pale Kids were playing a Princess board game. They invited her to play. They got their Princess or Prince names by reciting their names backwards. Flint was “Prince Tniff,” Stephanie was “Princess Einahpets,” Carly was “Princess Ylrac,” and Randy was “Prin…
