For those of you who don't know Marc Summers was the host of Nickelodeon's Double Dare and What Would You Do?, in the mid 80s. He is often referred to as one of the greatest tv personalities amoung children of the 80's. This spot has sparked my curosity on what ever happend to him. Apparently, Summers suffers from obsessive compulsive disorder. He figured out he was OCD after an interview in 1996. Summers returned to Nickelodeon in 2000 as a consultant on Double Dare 2000. The show only lasted two years. So, where is he now? As of 2005, he was hosting the Food Network's Unwrapped. He currently resides in California with two daughters and a wife.

Also watch this music video for a glimpse at (an older) Marc Summers. Good article megloveskyle -- Summers really does epitomize OSN and it's good to read about his post-Nickelodeon life.
