A show that started out on local TV in Canada on CJOH.
Executives of a station called "The Pinwheel Channel" in the US happened upon it and decided it was just what their station need. Then The Pinwheel Channel became Nickelodeon.
Then they had a hit.
Not only boosted the lulling stations ratings but also gave them their trademark slime scheme. Nick doesn't acknowledge this, perhaps because publicizing it will do no good to them. The slime would fall on someone when they said "I don't know." Water would also fall on someone who said "water."
It ran in the US from 1981-1990. It was such a big hit in the US, it left Canadians scratching their heads. Most Canadian children found the show disgusting and it never had a wide audience in its homeland.
Supposedly was cancelled because the show went through kids like a revolving door on crack and it was a tedious task to send royalty checks to 200+ different children.
Alanis Morissette appeared on about six episodes of the show in 1986, as a minor character.

Basically saying do it or don't,it just matters on what happens on one of those choices. If you or someone else is not really wanting to do something, but at the same time you technically can do that thing, that's where the phrase "You either do or don't" comes into play.
Example 1: Someone that works can get up to go to work, but they don't want to, if someone else says or that person remembers the phrase "You either do or don't", they will think about the outcomes of either decision, therefore proceeding with one of the choices depending on how they want it to play out.
Example 2: Have better eating habits to better your health or keep up bad eating habits and then your health declines

Suddenly, Mini-Wheat is put on trial. It's accidental, but the judge is unaware. He sits in fear, nervous of what the judge will do- because of what he's done to the other people. It's 1945, so "Mini-Wheat Discrimination" has not been put into place yet. He is sentenced to immediate execution. No more Mini-Wheat, kids.
