Roundhouse is an American comedy-variety television series that aired on Nickelodeon from 1992 through 1995. The series was recorded before a live audience on a minimal set and incorporated sketch comedy, dance sequences, and musical performances.
Background
Roundhouse debuted as a part of the original SNICK lineup on Nickelodeon in 1992 and continued airing on the network through the end of 1995.
Each episode revolved around the Anyfamily family and their problems in daily life. The half-hour show, taped in front of a visible live audience, was broken up into sketches, dance sequences, and musical performances by both cast members and the house band. After the storylines were resolved, a cast member would say, "Reprise the theme song and roll the credits!" The cast would then perform a dance routine while singing the opening theme a cappella as the credits ran. On the final episode, the entire cast shouted the line.
