Host Kirk Fogg will ruin Legends Of The Hidden Temple for you ’90s kids now

Olmec was just a guy with a microphone operating a big puppet head. The temple guards were sometimes TV writers who wanted to frighten children. And the game was nearly impossible to win because the producers had to stick to a tight budget and could only afford a handful of champions per season. These are among the disillusioning truths delivered by host Kirk Fogg in a Great Big Story video devoted to Legends Of The Hidden Temple. A fixture on Nickelodeon from 1993 to 1995, Legends was an eccentric show even by Nick standards, with its Indiana Jones-inspired set and its frustrating gauntlet of trivia, puzzles, and obstacles. Now that two decades have passed, Fogg is now at liberty to give away the show’s deepest, darkest secrets, the things the producers really kept secret, like the fact that one unfortunate girl puked in the Pit Of Despair. Fogg even admits he pitied the show’s hapless contestants.
