Nick tells Andy Cohen it's a "buzz kill" when fans run up to him and his wife and quote Jessica Simpson.

There are few things we enjoy as much as nostalgia, and Nick Lachey is just full of it.

The former frontman of 98 degrees and ex-husband of Jessica Simpson stopped by "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen" Thursday night to take several different trips down memory lane. Though he's now happily married to Vanessa Lachey (the couple have three children together), Lachey was happy to indulge Cohen, the audience and several curious callers.

Nick has no regrets about "Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica," the reality show he filmed with his then-wife, because he says it gave a "platform." However, neither he nor his wife Vanessa appreciate it when fans run up to him and quote some of the show's most famous lines, i.e., "Is this chicken what I have, or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it...it says 'Chicken by the Sea.'" According to Nick, "that's a buzz kill."

"That show gave me a chance to kind of show who I was," he explained. "'Cause when you're in a boy band, nobody really knows who you are as a person, so although that chapter of my life is obviously closed, the show gave me a great platform to say, 'Hey, this is who I am.' And I got a lot of fans to this day because of the show."

"It does fascinate me, though, that it's been 15 years, and people are still talking about it! They think about it like it was yesterday," he added, noting that he and Vanessa "don't sit around and watch it at the house, if you could imagine. It's not [for] family viewing."

Nick famously went on one date with Kim Kardashian in 2006, six months after his split from Jessica. He's said in the past he believes she tipped off the paparazzi that night.

When a caller asked him whether he ever heard from "his ex" after he dressed up as her and her then-husband, Kris Humphries, while guest co-hosting "Live" with Kelly Ripa on Halloween 2011, Lachey was quick to clarify that referring to Kim as his ex was "a little bit of a liberal use of the term."

"I think we went on one date together," he said. "But no, I never did hear from Kim on that one. Ironic timing."

"That was an interesting one because I was hosting with Kelly, and we played Kim and Kris Humphries at the time," he recalled. "I was on stilts and the whole thing. And then maybe 20 minutes after we wrapped the show, they announced their divorce."

Pressed by Cohen for more details on his short-lived romance with Kardashian, Lachey revealed the two went to see a matinee showing of "The Da Vinci Code."

"She left about halfway through and went to the restroom, and then shockingly, there were 25 paparazzi when we left the theater," Nick said. "I think there were other things in play on our little rendezvous."

"Couldn't be a nicer girl," he added. "We had a great time. But no, we don't keep in touch anymore, to answer your question."

Though the pop group went on hiatus in 2003, Nick still has fond memories of the band he formed with brother Drew Lachey, Jeff Timmons and Justin Jeffre. But given that it was Halloween, Andy said the Bravo Clubhouse was "haunted by the ghosts of Nick's 98 Degrees bandmates." It was their monograms, and not Cohen, who posed the "shady questions."

"Jeff Timmons" appeared to ask Nick which boy band he felt was the most overrated. "I would go with an English boy band," Nick replied. "There was a group called Five, which we toured with years ago, and I legendarily hate Five. So by default, yes, way overrated."

Then "Drew Lachey" showed up to ask his brother which 98 Degrees song still haunts him to this day. "The one I actually probably least like to perform is 'Una Noche,'" Nick replied.

Last but not least, "Justin Jeffre" appeared to inform Nick that Justin Timberlake's wife, Jessica Biel, recently revealed she doesn't know any NSYNC songs. He then asked if Vanessa knew any 98 Degrees songs. After a smile and a brief pause, Nick said, "She does now!" adding, "She will be the first to say that she was not a fan of 98 Degrees. She was more in the NSYNC groupie category. So unlike Jessica Biel, she knew every NSYNC song but knew none of our songs."

Nick Lachey Talks About His Former Reality Show ‘Newlyweds’: ‘It’s Not Family Viewing’

Nick Lachey can “vibe” with his former reality show, Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica, but fans might not want to mention Chicken of the Sea around him — especially if he’s with his wife, Vanessa Lachey.

The singer, 45, sounded off on the 2003 MTV series — which chronicled the first years of his marriage to Jessica Simpson — on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on Thursday, October 31.

Lachey told host Andy Cohen that he’s grateful for the experience. “That show gave me a chance to kinda show who I was,” he said. “Because when you’re in a band, like, a boy band, nobody really knows who you are as a person. So all of that chapter of my life is obviously closed. The show gave me a great platform to say, ‘Hey, this is who I am.’ And got a lot of fans to this day because of the show. … I vibe with it.”

That said, Lachey is surprised by the show’s enduring popularity. “It does fascinate me, though, that it’s been 15 years, I think, and people are still thinking about it like it was yesterday,” he said.

The show ended with its third season in March 2005, and Lachey and Simpson, 39, filed for divorce that December and finalized their split in June 2006. The fashion designer moved on with Eric Johnson — marrying the football player, with whom she shares three children, in 2014. For his part, Lachey married Vanessa (née Minnillo) in 2011, and they too have welcomed three kids.

On WWHL, the America’s Most Musical Family host said that he and Vanessa, 38, are happy to leave Newlyweds in the past. “We don’t sit around and watch it at the house,” he quipped. “If you can imagine, it’s not family viewing.”

Cohen, 51, asked about fans coming up to the couple and talking about Chicken of the Sea — referencing the famous Newlyweds scene in which the canned tuna brand confused Simpson — and Lachey confirmed it’s not one of his and Vanessa’s favorite topics of conversation. “Yeah, that’s a buzzkill,” he said.

“She doesn’t love that,” Cohen observed.

“Nor do I,” Lachey responded.

Vanessa Lachey Reveals Holiday Plans with Husband Nick Lachey, Their Kids and Extended Family

"It's go, go, go all year, and it's really nice that everything shuts down over the holidays," mother of three Vanessa Lachey tells PEOPLE

Where Christmas is concerned, it’s the more the merrier for Nick and Vanessa Lachey.

Vanessa tells PEOPLE that the couple and their three children — sons Phoenix Robert, 3, and Camden John, 7, plus daughter Brooklyn Elisabeth, 5 next month — are celebrating the holiday alongside a famous family member.

“[Nick’s brother] Drew [Lachey], [his wife] Lea and their kids are coming in on Christmas,” says the Top Chef Junior host, 39, who has partnered with children’s reading app Epic!.

“We’re excited to have them here because when we used to live next to each other in [Cincinnati], we always had Christmas together,” she adds of her 98 Degrees member brother-in-law and his family.

“And now that our kids are older, it’s hard to have Christmas away from home because they’re like, ‘Where are our presents?’ ” Vanessa says, noting, “And not that it’s about that at Christmas, but when you’re 2 and 4, that’s what Christmas morning is.”

While Vanessa and Nick, 46, have three children, Drew, 43, is a father of two. He and wife Lea, who tied the knot in 2000, share son Hudson Nicholas, 9½, and daughter Isabella Claire, 13.

“Since [Drew’s] kids are older, they’re going to have Christmas morning and then they’ll make it out here and we’ll all get to celebrate,” Vanessa says. “So I’m really excited to have family in town for that.”

“We always love doing family traditions during the holidays, but I think they become even more special because Phoenix was born on Christmas Eve,” she continues, adding of her anticipation of the low-key vibe surrounding the season, “I just love being home with the family. Honestly, it’s go, go, go all year, and it’s really nice that everything shuts down over the holidays.”

“So you actually can’t force yourself to make yourself over-busy,” Vanessa points out. “We’re really lucky this year that we get family.”

Speaking of Phoenix’s yuletide age milestone, this year marks the first that he will have had an actual birthday party to commemorate the occasion.

The mom of three goes on to explain that having his birthday on Christmas Eve has been a challenge when trying to plan a party for her youngest child — and that after his first year, the family simply wanted to celebrate their “miracle baby” together following his birth art 10 weeks premature after an umbilical-cord prolapse and subsequent hospitalization for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

“He said, ‘Am I having a birthday party?’ Because he’s seen his bigger brother and sister and he’s been to some [classmates’ parties],” Vanessa shares. “And I’m like, ‘Yes, Bubba, what do you want?’ He goes, ‘Pancakes and donuts with sprinkles!’ And I’m like, all right. He’s like, ‘And syrup.’ I said, ‘Okay buddy.’ “

“So we’re going to do a breakfast the Saturday before Christmas,” the proud mom adds.
