Even though Korn was impressed by the work Ross Robinson had done on their previous albums , they decided to work with Steve Thompson and Toby Wright . Robinson did however work with singer Jonathan Davis as a vocal coach for the album . Korn was shown making the video on KornTV . The reason they exposed themselves making the album was because they wanted to let their fans see what they were doing in the studio and behind the scenes . Follow the Leader features numerous guest vocalists , including Ice Cube on `` Children of the Korn '' , Tre Hardson of The Pharcyde on `` Cameltosis '' and Limp Bizkit 's Fred Durst on `` All in the Family '' . The songs for the album were written and copyrighted in 1997 , with the exception of `` Children of the Korn '' , `` All in the Family '' and `` Cameltosis '' , which are copyrighted from 1998 . In a 2013 interview , the band revealed that they partied heavily during the production of Follow the Leader , with massive amounts of alcohol , drugs , and women in the studio . Davis explained further , saying that while recording the vocals for `` It 's On '' , there were `` people getting blowjobs right behind me , there was girls banging each other in front of me , people getting boned in the closet right behind me , it was the craziest shit I 've ever seen in my life and I sang that song . '' According to Davis , he only agreed to begin tracking vocals when producer Toby Wright met his demands for an eight - ball ( a one - eighth ounce of cocaine ) . The hidden track `` Earache My Eye '' features comedian Cheech Marin of Cheech & Chong Photography and illustration ( edit ) The artwork for Follow the Leader was done by Todd McFarlane Entertainment , with McFarlane and fellow Image Comics artists Greg Capullo ( penciller ) and Brian Haberlin ( colorist ) doing the album cover , and designer Brent Ashe handling the graphics work . According to drummer David Silveria , the band got interested in McFarlane after hearing that `` Todd had actually referred to us as ' the Doors of the 90 's ' '' , leading to them recording a song for Spawn , a film based on a comic book by McFarlane , and eventually approaching the artist to make an album cover for them . The cover art depicts a child hopscotching off a cliff and a gathering of kids waiting to follow , a concept that begun with bassist Reginald `` Fieldy '' Arvizu and sketched by a friend of Jonathan Davis before being submitted to McFarlane . It marked the third straight Korn cover featuring children in a disturbing context , which Davis explained by saying that `` Children are always scared when they 're all happy and stuff . They 're the most beautiful thing in the world , but when you see it in our artwork , the way we 've placed it , it 's just kinda fuckin ' weird . '' The `` Freak on a Leash '' music video features animated segments by McFarlane featuring this cover art . Promotion ( edit ) Rapper Ice Cube is featured on the track `` Children of the Korn . '' Follow the Leader is recognized as Korn 's mainstream breakthrough , and the album that launched nu metal into the mainstream . Follow the Leader was released August 18 , 1998 , and was awarded multi-platinum certification for shipments in excess of five million copies , by the RIAA on March 15 , 2002 . In fall of 1998 , Korn started the Family Values Tour . According to Arvizu , the tour name was due to `` so many of their friends who were like family to us played in bands '' . The tour started on September 22 , 1998 , ending on October 31 , 1998 . The tour grossed over 6.4 million ( 6,400,000 ) . Korn maintained a generally low ticket price , usually no more than thirty dollars . Korn toured with the band Limp Bizkit , as well as Ice Cube , Orgy , Incubus , and Rammstein . The tour was considered to be a major success , and promoted Follow the Leader to sales that were considered to have `` skyrocketed '' . The album was also promoted through Concrete Marketing 's Concrete Corner program . The promotion saw 100,000 copies of a compilation CD featuring tracks of breakthrough artists approved by Korn , as well as a previously unreleased Korn track , being shrink - wrapped to the album at participating stores and given away for free with each purchase of the album . Band artists ( at the time ) featured on this CD included Kid Rock , Orgy , Powerman 5000 and Limp Bizkit . The album had five singles issued : `` All in the Family '' , `` Got the Life '' , `` Freak on a Leash '' , `` Children of the Korn '' , and `` B.B.K. '' Composition ( edit ) Follow the Leader is seventy minutes and eight seconds long . AllMusic said , `` They write songs , but those wind up not being nearly as memorable as their lurching metallic hip - hop grind . '' Entertainment Weekly commented that Follow the Leader was Korn 's `` gimmick '' , while saying the album had `` steely riffs '' and `` stomping beats '' . Tower Records said the album `` combines streamlined metal with ominous industrial touches and an undercurrent of hip - hop rhythm , '' and also said it was an `` urban nightmare '' . The album is considered to be nu metal , but also spans other genres such as alternative metal and heavy metal . `` Freak on a Leash '' Both `` Freak on a Leash '' and `` Got the Life '' are among the first music videos to be retired from MTV 's Total Request Live . The song was a `` boiling straw . '' Problems playing this file ? See media help . The album features 25 tracks , 12 of which last five seconds of silence , making the first 1 minute of the album all silent as respect for a fan named Justin , which had the 10th track , or 22nd , named after him . The concept of the song `` Justin '' was about a boy with the same name dying of intestinal cancer . His last wish was to meet the members of Korn . Winston - Salem Journal writer Ed Bumgardner described Korn 's work as having `` shaped rap , metal , and punk into a sonic maelstrom that is brutal , aggressive - and reasonably musical '' . The Daily News said that `` the band shovels chunky beats into an already complex sound ... '' Michael Mehle of Rocky Mountain News said , `` For the uninitiated , the classic Korn sound comes rumbling out of the speakers on the first cut : It 's On ! grinds fuzzy guitars , thunderous beats , and shouts of gut - wrenching rage into an anthem for the alienated '' , and gave other positive remarks . The Charlotte Observer said the album was dark , but humble . A Zeeland high school assistant principal said in an interview for a Michigan newspaper that the music is `` indecent , vulgar , obscene , and intends to be insulting '' . She said this after giving a student a one - day suspension for wearing a shirt with Korn on it .

Reviewer Jim Farber said that the lyrics `` provide a new blend of metal and remnants of alt - rock . '' Jon Pareles from The New York Times said the album was `` choppy '' , and also said that lead singer Jonathan Davis was `` wrestling with self - hatred , violent impulses , parental execration , and a confused sexual identity ... '' Robert Christgau of The Village Voice said that , although Korn `` deny they 're metal '' , they `` nevertheless demonstrate that the essence of metal ... is self - obliterating volume and self - aggrandizing display . '' Rolling Stone gave the album four out of five stars , while saying that Korn `` have an ideal record for those long , black days when all you can do is say ' What the Fuck ! What the Fuck ! What the Fuck ! ' at bloody murder volume '' . The album is featured in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die .

Clarissa had a pet baby alligator , Elvis , which she kept in a kiddie - sandbox and appeared sporadically in early episodes . Clarissa was credited with becoming the first Nickelodeon series to feature a female lead , which led the network to create other shows such as The Secret World of Alex Mack , The Amanda Show and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo . Its popularity among both boys and girls also helped to debunk a myth that a children 's series with a female lead would not appeal to boys . Clarissa dealt with normal adolescent issues such as first crushes , getting a driver 's license and preparing for college and working . These topics were dealt with far less dramatically than they were on other similar shows at the time ( such as Full House and Blossom ) . For instance , in one episode Clarissa accidentally shoplifts a piece of lingerie but is not caught by store security nor punished by her parents ; she spends most of the episode trying to figure out how to remedy the situation on her own . Although terms like `` hell '' and `` sex drive '' were occasionally uttered during the show 's run , most dialogue was kept family - friendly . One running gag involved her friend Sam often entering the scene by a ladder ( accompanied by a characteristic cord of guitar music ) through her bedroom window . A repeating theme during the series was the sibling rivalry between Clarissa and Ferguson , showing their repeated attempts to harm or even ( as in the series premiere ) to `` kill '' each other . Unique to the show was Clarissa 's tendency to tackle the episode 's central theme through the creation of a fictional video game . Characters ( edit ) Main ( edit ) Clarissa Marie Darling ( Melissa Joan Hart ) -- a smart , sarcastic and realistic teenage girl . Despite her rationalism , she often tends to exaggerate any problem she 's facing . She was approximately 14 years old when the series began and was a 9th grader at Thomas Tupper Junior High School . Her interests include computer game programming , photography , journalism and rock music . Though she is usually mild - mannered , she can be just as selfish and calculating as her younger brother Ferguson . Clarissa is best known for her unique fashion sense , typically involving very colorful , mismatched clothing . During Season 1 , Clarissa had an alligator named Elvis , but in the first episode of Season 2 , Clarissa explained that her parents sent Elvis back to Florida when he grew too big . In Mitchell Kriegman 's novel , Things I Ca n't Explain , Clarissa further elaborated that he `` disappeared under mysterious circumstances '' and `` it took years to get mom to confess that she gave away the reptilian Elvis without telling me after Ferguson tried to shove a pocket watch down its throat thinking it would win him the role of Captain Hook in the school play . '' Ferguson W. Darling ( Jason Zimbler ) -- Clarissa 's younger brother , a mischievous redhead . He and Clarissa continually antagonize each other . She refers to him with several epithets such as `` Ferg - face '' , `` Fergwad '' or `` Fergbreath . '' He loves money and comes up with get - rich - quick schemes . He is also a Young Republican who idolizes Dan Quayle and Ronald Reagan . He attends school with her and is about one or two years younger . Despite their rivalry , they occasionally collaborate , usually to the advantage of both . Unlike Clarissa , however , he does not seem to be very popular at school . Samuel `` Sam '' Anders ( Sean O'Neal ) -- Clarissa 's best friend and confidant . Generally more optimistic and upbeat than she is , he often asks `` What 's the worst that can happen ? '' He is perhaps best known for entering her second - story bedroom with a ladder after a distinctive guitar chord plays followed by Clarissa 's `` Hi , Sam '' greeting . He is smart and polite and enjoys skateboarding . His parents are divorced ( mentioned in the pilot ) . Janet Darling ( Elizabeth Hess ) -- Clarissa and Ferguson 's mother . She is the only family member Clarissa sees as a voice of reason and thus she seeks advice from her occasionally . She is a teacher who works at a children 's museum . She is also an environmentalist and an organic food enthusiast who often cooks bizarre meals . Marshall Darling ( Joe O'Connor ) -- Clarissa and Ferguson 's father . He is an architect who designs unusually shaped buildings , mostly retail and tourist attractions ( such as the `` Fryfel Tower '' ) . Clarissa sometimes comes to him for advice , but he is less reliable in this role than Janet . He often calls Clarissa `` sport '' , seldom addressing her by name . He and Janet are former flower children from the 1960s . Recurring ( edit ) Aunt Mafalda ( Heather MacRae ) -- Clarissa and Ferguson 's Canadian aunt whom Clarissa dislikes and tries to get rid of in two episodes in the first two seasons . Clifford Spleenhurfer ( David Eck ) -- Initially a bully who harassed Ferguson in Season 1 , he developed a crush on Clarissa when she stood up to him . She later misses his affections in Season 2 , and they begin a relationship which ends in Season 4 . He appeared in a total of five episodes , the most of any recurring character . His defining characteristic was a tremendous appetite , much to Marshall 's annoyance . Dr. Festerspoon ( Bob Noble ) -- The family doctor , who appears in two episodes in seasons 1 and 4 . Hillary O'Keefe ( Sara Burkhardt ) -- Clarissa 's friend from Thomas Tupper High , who appears in four episodes in seasons 2 and 3 . Deborah `` Debbie '' Anders ( Susan Greenhill ) -- Sam 's estranged mother who is often on the road with a traveling women 's Roller Derby team . She appears in a third - season episode where she tries to take custody of Sam and make him move to Seattle and again in the fourth season when she stays with the Darlings and becomes a burden . Olivia DuPris ( Nicole Leach ) -- Another one of Clarissa 's friends from high school , who appears in seasons 4 and 5 . The Soapersteins -- The Darlings ' mostly unseen next - door neighbors , referred to continually throughout the series . The mother and daughter appear once in season 4 , and the family 's dog appears in season 5 . Notable guest appearances ( edit ) These are other guest appearances , in single episodes by notable actors known for their other work . Nancy Youngblut as Mrs. Cheesebrow , a school guidance counselor who tries to get Clarissa interested in `` normal '' activities in season 2 . Cassidy Rae as Elise Quackenbush , Sam 's girlfriend in season 2 . Paul Kreppel as Joey Russo , Janet 's ex-high school sweetheart in season 3 . JoAnna Garcia as Fiona , Ferguson 's love interest in season 3 . Michelle Trachtenberg as Elsie Soaperstein , Clarissa and Ferguson 's neighbor and the Soaperstein 's spoiled daughter whom Clarissa must babysit in season 4 . She also had a crush on Ferguson . Jonathan Mangum as Clarissa 's imagined blind date in season 3 ( seen only in a fantasy sequence ) ; the same actor is credited in the role of a waiter and in the role of a pizza man in a fifth - season episode . Wayne Brady as the second pizza man that crossed Clarissa 's doorstep in a fifth - season episode . Sheeri Rappaport as Piper Henderson , Clarissa 's globe - traveling friend who comes to visit in season 5 . James Van Der Beek as Paulie , a boy whom Clarissa attracts as her punk alter - ego Jade in season 5 . Shannon Woodward as Missy , a girl whose lost kitten Ferguson finds in season 5 . Production ( edit ) Clarissa Explains It All was the second sitcom to premiere on Nickelodeon in 1991 , after Hey Dude ended its run . It was one of seven new programs ( three animated and four live - action ) to premiere on Nickelodeon that year , as the network began producing more original programming . It outlived the other live - action series introduced that year , Welcome Freshmen , Salute Your Shorts , and Fifteen , although Fifteen also lasted 65 episodes . Production on the series wrapped in December 1993 . The show 's theme song was sung by Rachel Sweet . It consisted entirely of a melody sung on the syllable `` Na , '' punctuated with the occasional `` Way cool ! '' or `` All right ! All right ! '' and underscored by rhythmic instrumentation , ending with a resounding `` Just do it ! '' A pilot for a follow - up series , Clarissa , was shot for CBS in 1995 , but was not picked up by the network . The pilot was shown on two occasions on Nickelodeon after the original series had ended production . The new series would have involved Clarissa 's internship at a New York City newspaper . Comedian Robert Klein costarred in the pilot as the newspaper 's editor . Supporting roles were played by Marian Seldes and Lisa Gay Hamilton . In 2002 , Hart said that she would not be interested in a cast reunion project : `` No . Shirley Temple taught me one thing . And that was once you finish a career , you move on . '' In her next television series , Sabrina , the Teenage Witch , her character actually did become a journalist .

Hart will reportedly reprise her role as the title character , who is now a mother .

The New York City based art rock band , Ravens & Chimes has a song entitled `` Clarissa Explains It All '' on their 2012 album , Holiday Life . Comedian Stevie Ryan parodies the show in episode 5 of season 2 of her VH1 series Stevie TV . The show has been featured in an online meme - based campaign to bring attention to racism , called `` Clarissa Explains White Supremacy '' . In 2015 , show creator Mitchell Kriegman wrote a novel , Things I Ca n't Explain : A Clarissa Novel , described as a `` re-imagining '' of the show .

Question: who played sam in clarissa explains it all


Capital punishment in New York - wikipedia Capital punishment in New York Jump to : navigation , search Capital punishment is not in force in the State of New York . The last execution took place in 1963 , when Eddie Mays was electrocuted at Sing Sing Prison . The state was the first to adopt the electric chair as a method of execution , which replaced hanging . Following the U.S. Supreme Court 's ruling declaring existing capital punishment statutes unconstitutional in Furman v. Georgia ( 1972 ) , New York was without a death penalty until 1995 , when then - Governor George Pataki signed a new statute into law , which provided for execution by lethal injection . In June 2004 , the state 's highest court ruled in People v. LaValle that the state 's death penalty statute violated the state constitution , and New York has had an effective moratorium on capital punishment since then . Subsequent legislative attempts at fixing or replacing the statute have failed , and in 2008 then - Governor David Paterson issued an executive order disestablishing New York 's death row . Legislative efforts to amend the statute have failed , and death sentences are no longer sought at the state level , though certain crimes that fall under the jurisdiction of the federal government are subject to the federal death penalty . Contents ( hide ) 1 Colonial period and statehood 2 Temporary abolition 3 Introduction of the electric chair 4 Statistics 5 Famous cases 6 Restrictions 7 Furman v. Georgia 8 Grasso extradition and execution 9 1995 reinstatement 10 Statute struck down in 2004 11 Political significance in Manhattan District Attorney elections 12 Legislative efforts to reinstate the death penalty 13 Death row disestablished 14 See also 15 References 16 External links Colonial period and statehood ( edit ) See also : Capital punishment in the United Kingdom During various periods from the 1600s onward , New York law prescribed the death penalty for crimes such as sodomy , adultery , counterfeiting , perjury , and attempted rape or murder by slaves . In 1796 , New York abolished the death penalty for crimes other than murder and treason , but arson was made a capital crime in 1808 . Temporary abolition ( edit ) In 1860 , the New York Legislature passed a bill which effectively , though unintentionally , abolished capital punishment in the state , by repealing hanging as a method of execution without prescribing an alternative method . The bill was signed by Governor Edwin D. Morgan in April 1860 . The New York Court of Appeals ruled the statute unconstitutional , in part , as an ex post facto law . Governor Morgan signed legislation to restore the death penalty in 1861 , and again in 1862 to fully repeal the earlier statute . Introduction of the electric chair ( edit ) William Kemmler was the first individual to be executed by electric chair , on August 6 , 1890 . Further information : Electric chair In 1886 , newly elected New York State governor David B. Hill set up a three - member `` New York Commission '' to determine a new , more humane system of execution to replace hanging . The commission included the human rights advocate and reformer Elbridge Thomas Gerry , New York lawyer and politician Matthew Hale , and Buffalo dentist and experimenter Alfred P. Southwick . Southwick had been developing an idea since the early 1880s of using electric current as a means of capital punishment after hearing about how relatively painlessly and quickly a drunken man died due to grabbing the energized parts on a generator . Southwick had published this proposal first in 1882 and , being a dentist accustomed to performing procedures on subjects in chairs , used the form of a chair in his designs , which became known as the `` electric chair '' . The commission reviewed ancient and modern forms of execution including lethal injection but finally settled on electrocution in 1888 . A bill making electrocution New York State 's form of execution passed the legislature and was signed by Governor Hill on June 4 , 1888 , set to go into effect on January 1 , 1889 . The first individual to be executed in the electric chair was William Kemmler , on August 6 , 1890 . Current was passed through Kemmler for 17 seconds and he was declared dead , but witnesses noticed he was still breathing , and the current was turned back on . From start to finish , the execution took eight minutes . During the execution , blood vessels under the skin ruptured and bled , and some witness reported that Kemmler 's body set on fire . Statistics ( edit ) Main article : List of people executed in New York From 1890 to 1963 , 695 people were executed in New York . The first was William Kemmler on August 6 , 1890 , and the last was Eddie Lee Mays on August 15 , 1963 . Kemmler was the first person in the world known to be executed in an electric chair . Except for four individuals , all of the people executed during this period were convicted of murder . The four exceptions were Joseph Sacoda and Demetrius Gula , who were convicted of kidnapping and executed January 11 , 1940 , and Julius and Ethel Rosenberg , who were convicted of espionage and executed June 19 , 1953 . Famous cases ( edit ) Raymond Fernandez ( left ) and Martha Beck ( right ) . In 1901 , Leon Czolgosz was electrocuted for the assassination of U.S. President William McKinley . Ruth Snyder was one of the very few women executed at Sing Sing . She was put to death in 1928 for the murder of her husband . A lesser known case dates to January 1936 , when serial killer Albert Fish was put to death for the cannibal murder of 10 - year - old Grace Budd . At age 65 , Fish was the oldest person ever executed at Sing Sing . Other notable cases are those of seven members of Mafia hit squad Murder , Inc between 1941 and 1944 , and `` Lonely hearts killer '' Raymond Fernandez and Martha Beck in 1951 , who are believed to have killed as many as 20 women . The most famous execution in state history occurred in June , 1953 , when Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were put to death at Sing Sing for espionage against the United States . Restrictions ( edit ) In 1965 , Governor Nelson Rockefeller , a liberal Republican who supported capital punishment , signed legislation which abolished the death penalty except for cases involving the murder of a police officer . Furman v. Georgia ( edit ) In the July 1972 decision in Furman v. Georgia , the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the existing death penalty procedures across the United States . The moratorium lasted until 1976 , when the Court ruled in Gregg v. Georgia that states could resume capital punishment under reworked statutes . Grasso extradition and execution ( edit ) On January 11 , 1995 , convicted killer Thomas J. Grasso , who had been sentenced to death by Oklahoma but was serving a sentence of 20 years to life in New York , was extradited from New York to Oklahoma to face execution . Grasso was transported to Buffalo Niagara International Airport and flown to Oklahoma . He was executed on March 20 , 1995 . 1995 reinstatement ( edit ) In 1995 , fulfilling a campaign promise , newly elected Governor George Pataki , a Republican , signed legislation reinstating the death penalty in New York , establishing lethal injection as the method of execution . Statute struck down in 2004 ( edit ) On June 24 , 2004 , the New York Court of Appeals , the state 's highest court , held 4 -- 3 in People v. LaValle that the state 's death penalty statute violated the New York Constitution . Governor Pataki criticized the ruling and promised a quick legislative fix . Between December 2004 and February 2005 , public hearings were held in Manhattan and Albany . New York Law School Professor and death penalty advocate Robert Blecker advocated strongly in favor of reinstatement , while Manhattan District Attorney Robert M. Morgenthau strongly opposed reinstatement . In 2007 , the New York Court of Appeals heard arguments in People v. John Taylor , and , in rejecting the arguments of the Queens District Attorney , commuted the sentence to life without parole , leaving New York with an empty death row . Political significance in Manhattan District Attorney elections ( edit ) In the 2005 Democratic primary for Manhattan District Attorney , incumbent Robert Morgenthau 's successful campaign produced television advertisements criticizing opponent Leslie Crocker Snyder , a prosecutor who had stated in her autobiography that in one case , she would have been willing to give a lethal injection to a defendant herself , saying Snyder was `` Wrong on the Death Penalty , Wrong for Manhattan '' . The New York Times endorsed Snyder but expressed concern about her support for the death penalty . For the duration of Morgenthau 's tenure as Manhattan District Attorney , he never once sought the death penalty in the period it was legal in New York . In the 2009 Democratic primary in which Morgenthau did not run , Snyder ran for District Attorney again , against Cyrus Vance , Jr. ( who would win ) and Richard Aborn . Both opponents strongly opposed the death penalty , and criticized Snyder for her previous comments . Snyder accused Vance and Aborn of taking her comments out of context , and stated that her position on the death penalty had changed due to learning about wrongful convictions . Aborn said he would oppose attempts to restore it , and would `` lead the effort against any attempt to revive it '' . Legislative efforts to Reinstate the death penalty ( edit ) In 2005 , supporters of the death penalty in the New York Legislature passed a bill restoring New York 's death penalty in the Republican - controlled State Senate , but the legislation was voted down by a legislative committee in the Democratic - controlled New York Assembly , and was not enacted into law . In 2008 , the State Senate again passed legislation that would have established the death penalty for the murder of law enforcement officers , but the Assembly did not act on the legislation . Death row disestablished ( edit ) In 2008 , Governor David Paterson , a Democrat , issued an executive order requiring the removal of the state 's execution equipment .
