Does anybody remember that? When Fox sold those scratch and sniff cards and 3D glasses for the Simpsons, Revenge of the Nerds 3 (I think), and I'm guessing other programs.

Edit: Smell-o-vision was something different. That was for a movie in the 60's called the "Scent of Mystery." What I'm thinking of was AeromaVision, and it was for Revenge of the Nerds 4. Whoopsie.

    They did the same think for Nick in the 90's. I found it being extremely lame....

      Yeah, they did that on Nick, like DMoney said.

      I remember you had to get a little card that had various scents on it that were numbered, if I remember correctly. Then you'd watch Nick, and a little nose with the corrosponding number would pop up whenever you had to Scratch and Sniff.

      I tried that once, and I didn't smell anything. Either the card I got was faulty or the whole thing was just a "hoax."

        Yeah, I remember having to go to, I think, 7-11 to get a scratch and sniff card for the Revenge of the Nerds thing I was talking about.

          I remember my Dad going to some movie in the mid to late 80's that had scratch and sniff cards that were numbered for different scenes. One was for a fart, and we would try and get people to sniff it all the time. Good times!

              I remember the 3-D and the smell-o-vision episodes for Married with Children. The card just did not see to work and the glasses never came with our TV Guide. Nice attempt back in the day but it failed.

                I had those, my card smelled like pickles

                    Scratch & Sniffs were very popular in the 90's :)
