Classic Nickelodeon Show "Clarissa Explains It All" To Make A Comeback In New Book "Things I Can't Explain"

The entertainment news website Digital Spy is reporting in the following article the exciting Classic Nickelodeon News that Mitchell Kriegman, the creator of the Classic Nick series "Clarissa Explains It All", has announced he plans to pen a brand new novel called "Things I Can't Explain", which will pick up with the show's heroine, Clarissa Darling, played by Melissa Joan Hart in the retro Nickelodeon show, as an adult.

The book, scheduled for publication in late 2014, will follow a 23-year-old Clarissa Darling as she attempts to make her way as a journalist and deals with a series of romantic troubles.

The original "Clarissa Explains It All" TV show aired on Nickelodeon between 1991 and 1994. A pilot for a spin-off show called "Clarissa Now" was shot by CBS in 1995, but was not picked up to series. Melissa Joan Hart previously mentioned in an interview with Digital Spy that many fans still associate her with the role of Clarissa. "Now it's come back to Clarissa," she said in 2011. "It's a little cult hit." Reruns of CEIA have appeared intermittently on TeenNick's programming block "The '90s Are All That" since July 25, 2011, and is currently being repeated on Nickelodeon UK as part of a similar block:
