I feel so dirty watching Nickelodeon. The way they treat their properties and actors, hiring creeps and knowingly letting them hurt people, it's awful

[@LoneWolfO1]

Same and I grew up on Nick in the 90s due to not getting Disney until 99 and CN in 01. Plus they owned my home state theme/amusement park Kings Dominion from 1992/93 to 2006 with Paramount Parks... I mean yeah last time I watched Nick was when Korra was airing and mainly kept to the old 90s shows since but still.

Yeah they always gave me the icks when I was a little kid now I understand why and now I can shove this in my sisters face

[@kootunesscrewy]

To tell you the truth... I always loved its sister network, Nicktoons, tbh. Even if it stinks now, it still had a impact with me. Unlike the main network. Heck, even most of the old bumpers were unique looking than the main network's ones.

[@andrewgarfield9898]

I always had a sense that something was wrong in those live actions shows. Like especially in Victorious things just felt wrong at times and as a kid I didn't know why I felt that way. But now I get it

Even stuff like SpongeBob?

[@Jordanse7en]

“The world could’ve survived without the Amanda show if it meant these kids didn’t have to be emotionally abused on set.” That is the perfect take. No project that makes any amount of money should come at the expense of decency. The crew members AND parents need to seriously be looked at.

Hypothetically speaking Imagine if all of this drama with Schneider and "Quiet On Set" were to lead to Nickelodean permanently closing it's doors and or shutting down, Which of course would mean all of their current running shows would be cancelled never to be aired again. And that would honestly be a small price to pay for everything that they let Schneider get away with. And in case anyone ask's, The reason I say "Hypothetically speaking" is because while it is true that Nickelodean has been facing hard times because of everything with "Quiet On Set" I doubt that it would actually cause the network to go bankrupt and permanently shut down.

Many of which had older shows I discovered for the first time like Ren and Stimpy, My Life As A Teenage Robot, Mr Meaty and especially Invader Zim, and original shows like The Secret Show, Kappa Mikey, El Tigre, Edgar & Ellen, Making Friends.

The only exception were any of their movies that got popular enough to franchise (Descendants & Zombies) and KC Undercover so they could include Zendaya in it because she herself is popular. But it really illustrates how much things have shifted from how things were 15 years ago.

It's sad that Nickelodeon throughout the 2010's never had an actual renaissance like Disney and Cartoon Network did, with a bunch of their shows getting canned way too soon for arbitrary reasons while putting out subpar or low quality shows, with exception of The Loud House (which that show is already getting stale by the first couple of episodes). Nickelodeon barely innovates and push the animation medium during that time and plays it way too safe while multiple bad actors in that studio doing all the heavy lifting .

A couple years later i was staying with a family who had children and they were often watching Nickelodeon. I remembered being grossed out a lot and feeling uncomfortable, but I kinda thought thats just how childrens entertainment looks to an adult, the way dirty jokes got put into cartoons that we shouldn't catch till adulthood. To find out it actually was uncomfortable and gross makes my heart hurt

[@8644mec]

Literally this. I "aged out" of being a Nick kid around the late 90's. Hey Arnold was probably the last Nick show that I was a major fan of and that came out in 1996 and ran a few years. I remember seeing some of the shows from the late 2000's and early 2010's on in the backround of family's houses with kids when visting and thinking the same as you.

My tinfoil hat theory is that Schneider sabotaged the animation department so he could push his sitcoms. The rise and fall of each department is oddly perpendicular and the dictate that all new cartoons needed to have Spongebob levels of success is "incompetent" to the point of malice. I noticed that there are more animated shows on Nick now than live-action... so what this guy sees as a problem-- all their cartoons are in their first season-- I see as a sign that the world is beginning to heal.

10:48 Because agencies that deal with child actors have deep ties to the record label industry. Remember that Miley Cyrus and Arianna Grande both got a start to their careers with Hannah Montana and VicTORIous respectively, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Why do you think FRED had a music album after the first movie came out? Why do you think they attempted to make Miranda Cosgrove into a popstar at one point? Why do you think Kidz Bop exists? It’s the music industry with all of these connections, and they put these kids into sitcoms as a marketing avenue for their music careers.

I've long held reservations about Dan Schneider's work, save for a few exceptions like The Amanda Show and Good Burger. Recent revelations have only confirmed my unease, prompting me to disengage from his productions. Nickelodeon urgently needs to overhaul its management practices, implementing stringent protocols to prevent individuals like Schneider from exerting unchecked influence. Regarding Rugrats 2021, it's release amid the SpongeBob spinoff discourse was ill-timed, even though that wasn't the intent. Being CGI (even if executive mandated) and the overblown controversy of Betty being a lesbian (Which mainly started because of that AV Club article) didn't help. Despite this, the reboot manages to honor the original while incorporating modern elements. While it doesn't surpass its predecessor, it offers some solid episodes, sometimes coming close to reaching the highs of the original Rugrats, though you would be willing to have to overlook the CGI and certain changes. I hope Nickelodeon heeds these concerns and redirects its focus accordingly.

I applaud the coworkers also taking action to show their distain against the network too. Zoey101 hurts the most for me. It was the one I grew up with, and that I have the most nostalgia for. It's quite known now that most of the cast are genuine scum, or enablers at the very least. Watching the show fills me with dread now. Hearing Alexis' story the first time was so heartbreaking. It's one thing that Jamie, Sean, Matthew, Erin, Christopher, Kristin, Victoria and much more bullied and isolated the poor girl (and whom haven't apologized for it as adults 🤨), but even more that Dan himself participated in this too.

I can't help but wonder if Cartoon Network ends up being completely absorbed by Adult Swim (seeing how AS has been taking over more and more of CN's time with every passing year), with the more GA animation migrating over to Nickelodeon. Imagine a world where Spongebob and Teen Titans Go share a network - just _yeesh._

I find it sad because Nickelodeon was a HUGE part of my childhood. SpongeBob Squarepants was my favorite show growing up, until around the time I was 12 or 13 where I started to lose interest in it, but even then Sponge continued to be one of my favorites until I turned 17. At the same time as SpongeBob I also loved Jimmy Nuetron, Fairly Odd Parents, Back at the Barnyard, Paw Patrol, the 2012 TMNT. Granted I did watch a fair share of Cartoon Network shows, as well as Phineas & Ferb and Gravity Falls on Disney, but Nick was my go-to. I never really watched the sitcoms on any of the channels with the only Nick one I cared about being iCarly and Disney being Suite Life on Deck (never watched the original), so it's sad hearing about all of this now. What makes it worse is that my favorite show when I was 13 was replaced by another Nick show, The Loud House, which was then replaced by My Little Pony not soon after. Now, I don't really care about Nickelodeon much and prefer some of the cooler, lore filled shows on Cartoon Network, but there are still 3 shows I like from Nick: Avatar, iCarly, and I want to check out Invader Zim. Never seen it. Oh and maybe Jimmy Neutron and Robot and Monster. It hurts that Nick had all of this shady stuff behind the scenes, especially with one of my favorite shows right now being created by Dan. I like to separate the art from the artist but I really don't know how my veiwpoint on iCarly will be, since... Hello! Live action! Watching and seeing Dan's victims while they are there!
