The Journey of Allen Strange ran on Nickelodeon from 1997 to 2000. It is a mostly forgotten science-fiction show about two siblings, Josh (Shane Sweet) and Robbie (Erin J. Dean) who befriend a young alien (Arjay Smith) stranded on Earth after his spaceship takes off without him. He disguises himself as a human and lives in the attic of the siblings' home. The kids name him Allen Strange and protect him from anyone who would suspect anything as well as his two main pursuers, Shaw (J. Kenneth Campbell), the leader of ARC, an alien-hunting government organization and deranged journalist Phil Berg (Dee Bradley Baker).It was created by Thomas Lynch, who also created The Secret World of Alex Mack. | |

Secret Test of Character | |
| The Journey of Allen Strange / int_3f7a958b | comment |
Secret Test of Character: One episode has Allen temporarily become human before he undergoes a rite of passage to prove his worth as a Xelon. He heads up to the highest point to complete the four tests, not realising the situations he finds himself in along the way (protecting a young girl from a hungry dog, telling a salesman that the money found among a pile of apples is not his, struggling up the mountain) are really the tests. He passes the final one when he thinks of Robbie rather than getting his Xelon powers back. | |

Blank Slate | |
| The Journey of Allen Strange / int_5020cc4a | comment |
Blank Slate: The mannequin brought to life to play the role of Allen's father. The mannequin acted very oddly, saying random things, and needed to have his behavior molded to be more appropriate. | |

Murderous Mannequin: The alien Allen Strange needs to blend in on Earth. To this end, he takes human form and brings a mannequin in a sports store to life so it can pose as his father. The mannequin is given the name Manfred Strange and throughout the series needs fine-tuning to properly act like a human. | |
