In the series, Clarissa Darling, played by Melissa Joan Hart, is a teenager who addresses the audience directly to describe the things that are happening in her life, dealing with typical adolescent concerns such as school, boys, pimples, wearing her first training bra and an annoying little brother. A total of 65 episodes were produced and aired from March 23, 1991 to October 1, 1994. From August 1992 onwards, the series headlined the popular SNICK ( Saturday night Nickelodeon ) lineup. Reruns of the show have appeared intermittently on TeenNick 's channel block The ' 90s Are All That ( now NickSplat ) since July 25, 2011. In 2015, Kriegman released a novel, Things I Ca n't Explain, which serves as a sequel to the series. In the novel, Clarissa is now in her late 20s and trying to navigate life as an adult. In March 2018, it was reported that a reboot of the series was in development at Nickelodeon, with Clarissa now as a mother.

Clarissa had a pet baby alligator, Elvis, which she kept in a kiddie - sandbox and appeared sporadically in early episodes. Clarissa was credited with becoming the first Nickelodeon series to feature a female lead, which led the network to create other shows such as The Secret World of Alex Mack, The Amanda Show and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo. Its popularity among both boys and girls also helped to debunk a myth that a children 's series with a female lead would not appeal to boys. Clarissa dealt with normal adolescent issues such as first crushes, getting a driver 's license and preparing for college and working. These topics were dealt with far less dramatically than they were on other similar shows at the time ( such as Full House and Blossom ). For instance, in one episode Clarissa accidentally shoplifts a piece of lingerie but is not caught by store security nor punished by her parents ; she spends most of the episode trying to figure out how to remedy the situation on her own. Although terms like `` hell '' and `` sex drive '' were occasionally uttered during the show 's run, most dialogue was kept family - friendly. One running gag involved her friend Sam often entering the scene by a ladder ( accompanied by a characteristic cord of guitar music ) through her bedroom window. A repeating theme during the series was the sibling rivalry between Clarissa and Ferguson, showing their repeated attempts to harm or even ( as in the series premiere ) to `` kill '' each other. Unique to the show was Clarissa 's tendency to tackle the episode 's central theme through the creation of a fictional video game. Characters Main Clarissa Marie Darling ( Melissa Joan Hart ) -- a smart, sarcastic and realistic teenage girl. Despite her rationalism, she often tends to exaggerate any problem she 's facing. She was approximately 14 years old when the series began and was a 9th grader at Thomas Tupper Junior High School. Her interests include computer game programming, photography, journalism and rock music. Though she is usually mild - mannered, she can be just as selfish and calculating as her younger brother Ferguson. Clarissa is best known for her unique fashion sense, typically involving very colorful, mismatched clothing. During Season 1, Clarissa had an alligator named Elvis, but in the first episode of Season 2, Clarissa explained that her parents sent Elvis back to Florida when he grew too big. In Mitchell Kriegman 's novel, Things I Ca n't Explain, Clarissa further elaborated that he `` disappeared under mysterious circumstances '' and `` it took years to get mom to confess that she gave away the reptilian Elvis without telling me after Ferguson tried to shove a pocket watch down its throat thinking it would win him the role of Captain Hook in the school play. '' Ferguson W. Darling ( Jason Zimbler ) -- Clarissa 's younger brother, a mischievous redhead. He and Clarissa continually antagonize each other. She refers to him with several epithets such as `` Ferg - face '', `` Fergwad '' or `` Fergbreath. '' He loves money and comes up with get - rich - quick schemes. He is also a Young Republican who idolizes Dan Quayle and Ronald Reagan. He attends school with her and is about one or two years younger. Despite their rivalry, they occasionally collaborate, usually to the advantage of both. Unlike Clarissa, however, he does not seem to be very popular at school. Samuel `` Sam '' Anders ( Sean O'Neal ) -- Clarissa 's best friend and confidant. Generally more optimistic and upbeat than she is, he often asks `` What 's the worst that can happen ? '' He is perhaps best known for entering her second - story bedroom with a ladder after a distinctive guitar chord plays followed by Clarissa 's `` Hi, Sam '' greeting. He is smart and polite and enjoys skateboarding. His parents are divorced ( mentioned in the pilot ). Janet Darling ( Elizabeth Hess ) -- Clarissa and Ferguson 's mother. She is the only family member Clarissa sees as a voice of reason and thus she seeks advice from her occasionally. She is a teacher who works at a children 's museum. She is also an environmentalist and an organic food enthusiast who often cooks bizarre meals. Marshall Darling ( Joe O'Connor ) -- Clarissa and Ferguson 's father. He is an architect who designs unusually shaped buildings, mostly retail and tourist attractions ( such as the `` Fryfel Tower '' ). Clarissa sometimes comes to him for advice, but he is less reliable in this role than Janet. He often calls Clarissa `` sport '', seldom addressing her by name. He and Janet are former flower children from the 1960s. Recurring Aunt Mafalda ( Heather MacRae ) -- Clarissa and Ferguson 's Canadian aunt whom Clarissa dislikes and tries to get rid of in two episodes in the first two seasons. Clifford Spleenhurfer ( David Eck ) -- Initially a bully who harassed Ferguson in Season 1, he developed a crush on Clarissa when she stood up to him. She later misses his affections in Season 2, and they begin a relationship which ends in Season 4. He appeared in a total of five episodes, the most of any recurring character. His defining characteristic was a tremendous appetite, much to Marshall 's annoyance. Dr. Festerspoon ( Bob Noble ) -- The family doctor, who appears in two episodes in seasons 1 and 4. Hillary O'Keefe ( Sara Burkhardt ) -- Clarissa 's friend from Thomas Tupper High, who appears in four episodes in seasons 2 and 3. Deborah `` Debbie '' Anders ( Susan Greenhill ) -- Sam 's estranged mother who is often on the road with a traveling women 's Roller Derby team. She appears in a third - season episode where she tries to take custody of Sam and make him move to Seattle and again in the fourth season when she stays with the Darlings and becomes a burden. Olivia DuPris ( Nicole Leach ) -- Another one of Clarissa 's friends from high school, who appears in seasons 4 and 5. The Soapersteins -- The Darlings ' mostly unseen next - door neighbors, referred to continually throughout the series. The mother and daughter appear once in season 4, and the family 's dog appears in season 5. Notable guest appearances These are other guest appearances, in single episodes by notable actors known for their other work. Nancy Youngblut as Mrs. Cheesebrow, a school guidance counselor who tries to get Clarissa interested in `` normal '' activities in season 2. Cassidy Rae as Elise Quackenbush, Sam 's girlfriend in season 2. Paul Kreppel as Joey Russo, Janet 's ex-high school sweetheart in season 3. JoAnna Garcia as Fiona, Ferguson 's love interest in season 3. Michelle Trachtenberg as Elsie Soaperstein, Clarissa and Ferguson 's neighbor and the Soaperstein 's spoiled daughter whom Clarissa must babysit in season 4. She also had a crush on Ferguson. Jonathan Mangum as Clarissa 's imagined blind date in season 3 ( seen only in a fantasy sequence ) ; the same actor is credited in the role of a waiter and in the role of a pizza man in a fifth - season episode. Wayne Brady as the second pizza man that crossed Clarissa 's doorstep in a fifth - season episode. Sheeri Rappaport as Piper Henderson, Clarissa 's globe - traveling friend who comes to visit in season 5. James Van Der Beek as Paulie, a boy whom Clarissa attracts as her punk alter - ego Jade in season 5. Shannon Woodward as Missy, a girl whose lost kitten Ferguson finds in season 5. Production Clarissa Explains It All was the second sitcom to premiere on Nickelodeon in 1991, after Hey Dude ended its run. It was one of seven new programs ( three animated and four live - action ) to premiere on Nickelodeon that year, as the network began producing more original programming. It outlived the other live - action series introduced that year, Welcome Freshmen, Salute Your Shorts, and Fifteen, although Fifteen also lasted 65 episodes. Production on the series wrapped in December 1993. The show 's theme song was sung by Rachel Sweet. It consisted entirely of a melody sung on the syllable `` Na, '' punctuated with the occasional `` Way cool ! '' or `` All right ! All right ! '' and underscored by rhythmic instrumentation, ending with a resounding `` Just do it ! '' A pilot for a follow - up series, Clarissa, was shot for CBS in 1995, but was not picked up by the network. The pilot was shown on two occasions on Nickelodeon after the original series had ended production. The new series would have involved Clarissa 's internship at a New York City newspaper. Comedian Robert Klein costarred in the pilot as the newspaper 's editor. Supporting roles were played by Marian Seldes and Lisa Gay Hamilton. In 2002, Hart said that she would not be interested in a cast reunion project : `` No. Shirley Temple taught me one thing. And that was once you finish a career, you move on. '' In her next television series, Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, her character actually did become a journalist.

The second season was scheduled to be released a few months later, but it was pulled from Paramount Pictures ' release schedule. To this date, there are no plans to release the series further on DVD.

In addition, Melissa Joan Hart, Sean O'Neal, and Jason Zimbler also received multiple Young Artist Award nominations. Melissa won three competitive Young Artist Awards during the show 's original run, as well as receiving the association 's honorary Former Child Star Award in 2013 for her role as Clarissa. Reboot In March 2018, The Hollywood Reporter announced that a reboot of the show was `` in early development '' at Nickelodeon. Hart will reportedly reprise her role as the title character, who is now a mother. She will also serve as executive producer on the series alongside original series creator Kriegman, who is in talks to also write the show. The early reports were not immediately confirmed by any of the participants. In popular culture The New York electropunk group, Mindless Self Indulgence referred to the show in the song `` Clarissa '' from their 2000 album Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy. There is an indie rock band called Clarissa Explains It All. The TV show Melissa & Joey, which stars Melissa Joan Hart, features a character with a blog titled `` Lennox Explains It All '', a nod to the show. The New York City based art rock band, Ravens & Chimes has a song entitled `` Clarissa Explains It All '' on their 2012 album, Holiday Life. Comedian Stevie Ryan parodies the show in episode 5 of season 2 of her VH1 series Stevie TV. The show has been featured in an online meme - based campaign to bring attention to racism, called `` Clarissa Explains White Supremacy ''. In 2015, show creator Mitchell Kriegman wrote a novel, Things I Ca n't Explain : A Clarissa Novel, described as a `` re-imagining '' of the show.
