In search of a 90s gem!

Hey peeps, I'm hitting a wall on this one series I used to watch as a kid. It's stuck in my head and won't go away! Early 90s, there was this show, had a group of kids and this one alien dude with weird clothes. They had a secret base kinda thing, almost like a clubhouse? Secret handshakes, all that jazz. It was super quirky, had a bit of a 'Eerie, Indiana' vibe if ya know what I mean, but it wasn't that. Help me out here!

Based on your description, it seems like a conflation between 'Pete & Pete' for its quirkiness & clubhouse element, and 'Animorphs' for the alien component. Though Animorphs is a bit late for the early 90s timeframe. Could also possibly be 'The Tribe', more late 90s but ticks many boxes.

You might be on to something that's not as mainstream. Ever heard of 'The Zack Files'? It's got that supernatural feel with a group of kids solving mysteries. Not an alien per se, but def some weird otherworldly clothing going on in there.

This is a long shot, but you might be thinking of 'The Odyssey'. It's got that secret club vibe, and while there's no alien, the weird 'nother world feel could fit what you're describing?

Hey there! Are you thinking of 'Ocean Girl'? Not quite an alien, but the main character was a mysterious girl from the ocean with some superhuman abilities, and she hung out with a group of kids at a secret base sort of place. There were some sci-fi elements that gave off an 'alien' vibe.

Sounds like every 90s show mashed into a blender lol. Are you sure you didn't dream this up after too much Surge and Pop Rocks?

Hmm, your description screams 'Eerie, Indiana', but since that's not it... was there time travel involved? Because if so, maybe 'Land of the Lost'? They had a club house sort of feel in the weird world they were stuck in.

Doesn't ring any bells on the alien side, but sounds like you could be talking about 'Space Cases'. It was quirky, had a group of kids in space with some aliens including a dude in weird clothes. Not exactly secret base, more like a spaceship, but maybe that's what's sticking in your mind.

omg this sounds SO familiar! I'm pretty sure you're thinking of 'The Secret World of Alex Mack'. It had all the secret stuff, but the alien thing... hmm. Maybe mixing it up with 'My Pet Monster?' Gotta love the 90s amirite? 😅
