Bro

[@Pepsiman2006]

I was there for the Pinball era. I remember when the station went off the air in the evening. Theme song still rings in my head. Hopefully the executives would consider reviving it for some anniversary year.

[@matty6598]

Unfortunately they probably wont do that :(

[@ndhunter]

Finally, the ID back from when Nickelodeon would end its broadcast day at 7:00 Central time, even before Nick at Nite came along. I loved knowing that the National Educational Association recommended that I watch "You Can't Do That On Television". Classic!

[@stevebragg4256]

Recall A & E would come on at 7 p.m. or 8pm

[@user-qr7vu8hg5h]

Una capa sin héroe :')

[@sixeleven637]

This is old and I'm am just a child and this still make me cry

[@Logo3930]

0:32 This Channel Was Recordmized By The Mini DVD Video Production

[@emilyyamasaki4968]

This song sounds so nostalgic and familiar but how could I have heard it before...I was born long long after this was over

[@christianpool]

Back then, this sign off was a signal for children of the 80s that it was time to go to bed.. So glad was born in 1989..

[@josephD32]

Depended on what year and what cable systen. Sometimes, Nick would sign off as early as 4pm, and A&E would sign on the same channel immediately after. Sometimes In between, you'd actually hear the network dial in on TV.

[@emilyyamasaki4968]

Joseph Duncan wow. Having been born in 2004 it’s difficult to comprehend that.

[@geebee6010]

Yes channel’s actually went off the air.

[@MacrossSD]

Yeah, come to think of it, I don't think I've seen an NEA recommendation for them since they went to the orange blob logo!

[@fredrios9163]

Why is that?

[@theweathercat2002]

The Channel got a bit more creative

[@MissHoneybeezy]

Crying because I've just accepted my childhood is over.

[@Imaginethat77]

Ever notice that all the good shows died in 2004? Not just Nickelodeon, but Cartoon Network too. RIP Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network! The Golden Ago that ended in 2004 will be missed. :'(

[@Logo3930]

Huh?

[@Angie2343]

This reminds me of the old Universe of Energy attraction in EPCOT center.

[@daniellepluzsik178]

Star-Lord be like

[@Tanzim-Kazi]

I remember that video when I was young, and I like the music.

[@KratostheThird]

All I can say is this brings a tear to my eye when I watch these older promos and segments. Nickelodeon was so good at this time that it seemed like a heaven for kids and teens alike. Now, it's pretty much like every OTHER TV network out there today. Bland, boring, and saturated. I can't look forward to watching new shows. Because the feeling isn't there anymore.

[@thatkaidonchannelcountryba3606]

Still the same

[@Idoljunky32]

This was when Nickelodeon was worth watching! I grew up in the pinball era of Nick! Great shows! My favorites were YCDTOTV, Mr. Wizard's World and Nick Rocks! I'm so glad I was a child of the 70's/80's!

[@BaarBear]

My god, I haven't seen this bumper in years! Thanks for posting it!

[@dgwaters]

That is so true! Today the NEA would not even consider recommending Nickelodeon or the Disney Channel

[@Scarpia9111]

Growing up as a kid in the 80s was really a wonderful wonderful time!

[@MizNelson]

Great clip. I remember being in sixth grade in the late 1980s watching "Double Dare" every day at 4:30 after school. Then the Nick at Nite programming would begin out here at 5pm, because it was 8:00 Eastern time (I didn't get it either). Sadly, Nickelodeon was a shell of its former self by the mid-90s.

[@Diskoboy1974]

You kids not old enough to remember the Reagan years sure did miss alot. Gen X witnesse SO MUCH in our lives - the dawn of the digital age. The birth of cable TV, then being able to record it! I used to dispise this when it came on nightly, back in the early 80's. Up until last year, I remember longing to hear this again. Now it just puts a giant smile on my face. To me Nick peaked in 1984, they started phasing in the current logo, then Nick didn't feel right, anymore.

[@xreddragonx]

EXACTLY, dgwaters. The NEA wouldn't touch post-1990 Nickelodeon with a 10 foot pole.

[@xreddragonx]

Nice to see an observation here from someone who was actually there. Although I am sorta envious of your memory span, since my memories of being 4 yrs old (1986-87) are extremely vague, even more when it comes to TV. Luckily much of Nick's great early shows were still airing from 1988-90.

[@211bill]

Thank you !!!

[@mattdawg83686]

Oh wow! Now this brings back memories! It's been more than 20 years since I've seen this!

[@FunkyStudios]

Just so you know now it's almost 40 years now....

[@jfunk513]

I remember this ident well as a kid which was usually something I hated to see at the time, because it meant the end of Nick for the night and the beginning of the stage acting and cultural shows that A&E were showing at the time. But now that I have seen it some 20 something odd years later I think very fondly of it and miss the Nickelodeon that I grew up with.

[@VanHalenFreak99]

so, I was born in '99, and I remember all of the good shows were still on. Today, i look at the shows and I'm like man what have they done. But,This is amazing. I didnt know nick was from 82!!!!!!!!!!

[@emilysabol4159]

i missthat old nickelodeon

[@tbo452]

Fun fact - in 1982 there was a very non PC show that made it debut on Saturday January 2,1982 and then moved to Wednesdays at 4 PM and 7 PM EDT beginning on January 6, 1982. I am pretty sure the NEA did not see or even know about this show. :) This show was the exact opposite of just about every single thing nickelodeon had on the air at that time. One could say the kids only tuned in to Nickelodeon only on Wednesday afternoons during the first part of 1982. :) This program contained a scene with blood, guns, smoking, people being shot at a firing squad, dungeon torture, and a lot of politically incorrect stuff, and a girl who could not keep her mouth shut. :) Of course it was the very show described above that became Nickelodeon's #1 smash hit when the mid '80s arrived. :) The most 'infamous' thing from that show is what most of nickelodeon's promos and merchandise were centered around. :)

[@YuukiTakemoto1996]

You Can't Do That On Television!

[@timothymcgervey5401]

Come along. Come along. We can find...a world of magic. Come along. Come along. Come along. We can make...the world your friend. Silver ballll in the air. See it gloooww everywhere. Nickelo. Come along. Nickelo. Here we go. Nickelooo...deon!

[@ILiekTrains2024YEG]

*music kepet playing*

[@Kazuo1G]

This intro is the epitome of 80's graphics and art. :D

[@tvguy1979]

It was actually American. You might think it was Canadian because it had a lot of Canadian shows.

[@mattdawg83686]

I miss the 80's so much because of this!

[@Jal8919536]

I now miss watching television, going to the movies and afterwards renting from the movie libraries on Friday evenings as a result. :(

[@princessevie-topic7495]

I know this bumper promo was in the 80s. But back in 1998 I remember watching this. And also I sang along to it. Witch I still remember.

[@djmutt2000]

Back when Nick wanted to empty you of your stress! Now they want to empty you of your sanity!

[@kolaboy7727]

Ah, thank you :) Now, I hope that the 1981 montage opening will surface soon.

[@Jal8919536]

Thanks. The same goes for the current television/movie industry. I used to look forward to watching television, going to the movies, and renting from the movie libraries then, as what they had out was good then, but now I don't do that anymore as the stuff the media is dishing out these days is not as good or educational as what it was then. : (

[@TheInkPitOx]

I always wanted to create a retro Nickelodeon, using the pinball as its logo.

[@matty6598]

I did that once on viloud and it got taken down rip

[@KapusaDaCat]

I thought this channel was memey, there was only Nick bumpers 😭😨🙏

[@19thcenturykcory_kwekkwek92]

1981 Is Beautiful

[@LDTV22OfficialChannel]

This is one of best television themes out there

[@dgwaters]

Dude, you are SO right! For me Nick's best years were from '84-'86. And don't forget about Nick at Nite!

[@onesetofpajamas3873]

I really, really like this

[@Jal8919536]

I love the early Eighties woodwinds/strings/brass R&B typical of the period for this ident. ; )

[@Jal8919536]

To think Nickelodeon used to approved by NEA, and just look at the channel now. Like the Disney Channel, Nickelodeon (both channels used to be educational) has now jumped the shark.

[@Trance88]

Wow. This bumper (channel ID) is sooooo retro compared to today's. Nothing beats the bumpers from the 90's though.

[@TBONE_2004]

I can see how Viacom changed everything in 1986 and transformed Nickelodeon into what it would become in the late 80s and early to mid 90s.

[@RealElmerFudd-uv8zy]

Channel name is "amogus" and he uploaded this video 16 years ago bro is a time traveler

[@liteskinnededgal]

That is cool! I wasn't even born yet at that time.

[@marioTmaggot]

Being a kid in the early 80's was the best.

[@kolaboy7727]

One Nick programme that I've never seen excerpted is the music video show "Popclips". I think it only aired for a few months in early 1981. If THAT turns up on here, I'll be a happy camper.

[@jrzbob]

If I was born in the early 70's,I would've been a TV star by age 11 or 12

[@freeonlinealltime]

Happy music!

[@kolaboy7727]

I've been hoping someone would eventually upload the ARTS sign-in. And, some of the intros Ann Baxter did from Père Lachaise Cemetery....

[@strangerinastrangeland5314]

Where can i download this perfect music?

[@1Soniccool]

in 2009 this logo on the sliver ball looks like this

[@vertz1515]

that tremble

[@strangerinastrangeland5314]

Great!

[@NobodyCaresBro]

@Zipperman2000 And before this ID it was called the Pinwheel Network, right?

[@Idoljunky32]

Ahh! Those were the days! You Can't Do That On Television, Pinwheel, Nick Rocks, Mr. Wizard! I'm proud to be a child of the early Nickelodeon years. It's a shame that NICK is crap today. I wonder if they have a vintage Nick channel that shows old shows like those from the early years of Nick. That would be awesome!

[@Cavillier1970]

@store275 Its funny I was thinking the same thing. Do you realize that all the stars on the current shows on Nick werent born when the Silverball ads last aired.

[@juliana.lymond2622]

1982 Was The Same Year KNIGHT RIDER Premiered.

[@mapleplatoon]

Imagine what Nickelodeon would be like if they kept this logo up to now.

[@wcclyne]

how did you get this video on you tube

[@niok123]

i grew up with 90's nick, nd i miss it!!!!! it was wacky!!!! P.S. this is random, but this was 2 years before apple introduced the Macintosh

[@HypnotizedByTv]

I was born in 1997 I remember the late 90s shows would be mixed in the with the new stuff in the early 2000s like they showed old all that episodes w. New all that episodes after

[@WonderfulFlashTV-PLUS]

Space Stars Air on Nickelodeon in 1981 to 1984

[@eluruguayo2019]

chorizo181 its 1981 to 1986

[@toucansam3]

And just like that, an entire generation of children was introduced to the wonders of dropping acid.

[@MalekMasoud]

This was taken from the time Nickelodeon was owned by WASEC (Warner-Amex Satellite Entertainment Company), the same company who owned TMC (The Movie Channel).

[@sunswift]

If nickelodeon was a Saturday morning cartoon

[@christopherward9037]

That Nickelodeon logo is very old-fashioned.

[@jomzjmteYT]

I wish I was born in 1970s to see this

[@tvguy1979]

No. When Nickelodeon first launched, it's IDs had a mime on a black background who would look into an actual nickelodeon.

[@tvguy1979]

What montage opening?

[@myfirstlovesong]

do you have any of the fill ins with the stupid mime

[@Meshal11YouTube15]

@NobodyCaresBro 1984. This one lasted from 1981-1984.

[@raptonx]

*would like to see the silver ball roll over spongebob or shoot multi colored lasers at him* God I miss the days when nick was awesome.

[@MorgueWatcher]

i dident know nick used to be educational???? i learn somthing new almost every day lol..

[@tvguy1979]

Correct.

[@Timbrock1000]

NICKELODEON WAS ONCE RECOMMENDED BY THE N.E.A, but not anymore! Back then, Nickelodeon had an educational value via its shows "Pinwheel", "Kids Incorporated", "Livewire", "Mr. Wizard", and others. But today, it's been hijacked by the idiocy of Sponge Bob.

[@smophie6260]

They would’ve gone bankrupt if it wasn’t for the revamp

[@newandused1998]

i miss 80's and early to late 90's stuff...now all i hear about at my school is people hwo have gameboys and cube. BRING BACK RETRONESS!!!

[@huskobon]

Agreed.

[@ezetielve3177]

Dude this is the signoff

[@tvguy1979]

ARTS merged in February 1984; Nickelodeon changed its logo in the fall of 1984.

[@eluruguayo2019]

no

[@dylanaruto20]

i know they canceled old nick also the 90's are all that only shows all that, kenan and kel, catdog and hey arnold

[@riceboy1701e]

@Rulinator THANK YOU! MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY! ENOUGH OF THE STUPID "THUMBS UP"!

[@bustyrandit]

@makindsmanahome I read somewhere the original name of Nickelodeon was Pinwheel and it started on the Cube cable network out of Ohio in the Late 70's.

[@xreddragonx]

@laurendanella Wow, thanks for sharing that lol. Even though it has nothing to do with anything lol.

[@NobodyCaresBro]

When did they change from this logo to the orange splat?

[@allrighter0413]

In 1985 the Silver Ball melted in a foundry and turned into orange slime.

[@FlorafoxNights]

Then a "Magic Paintbrush" Wrighted NICKELODEON
