The DEATH of Nickelodeon

[@Cartoonshi]

19/11/2024 EDIT: Sorry for how jarring the opening 10 seconds is now. ATLUS have been on a copyright spree with their music recently and I have no idea why, given they've been fine with me using their music for years. The new music may not be in sync with the video but it's better than having no music at all.

Nicktoons should be Nickelodeon's version of Boomerang, air their old school 90's and early 2000's shows instead of it being a graveyard channel.

[@DefyReality-ll2cg]

It was that for a while, you could watch Oh Yeah Cartoons, Invader Zim, Chalkzone, Teenage Robot, Rugrats, Ahh Real Monsters, Angry Beavers, hey Arnold, As Told By ginger, Seasons 1-3 of SpongeBob, but then they changed it in the 2010's when they began adding the live action shows to the network plus current episodes of Spongebob and Loud House along side making it their dumping ground for shows they didn't want anymore.

[@Drake_Waffle]

Nicktoons isn't even a graveyard anymore, it's literally all spongebob, 24/7, literally nothing else, but yeah I agree

[@CCaster2000]

You know how badly I wanted Nicktoons when I was a kid because it was airing all the cooler cartoons that the main channel wouldn't? But now it's just crappy. As for Boomerang, they only show classic cartoons (y'know, what they advertised the whole channel around) leither late at night or early in the morning.

I hope nobody believed in Dan's apology. why didn't he apologize years prior. He also only apologized for things from the documentary. He and the executives did alot of bad stuff that was surprisingly never brought up in quiet on set. Why is dan always taking the blame though, I mean the writers put the actors in uncomfortable situations. Do you ever think dan got petty or jealous when ever a sitcom got made that wasnt made by Schneider Bakery?" Ok my final edit" I decided to rewatch dan's apology to see if I got some things incorrect. There are things the apology video left out. Dan Does not apologize for the cake incident. Dan does not apologize for replacing that little girl katrina with amanda Bynes. No mention of Jennate's book Either. The video is only 19 minutes long so I shouldve expected that. What did I expect with the same guy after apologizing he decides sue for quiet on set.

I always remembered Nickelodeon for its smaller shows like Backyardigans, Wonder Pets, Ni Hao Kai Lan, and Yo Gabba Gabba. I did also watch Dora the Explorer and Blue's Clues, but those first four I mentioned made up a good majority of my childhood. It sucks that Nickelodeon doesn't give those shows the love they deserve, because all of those were entertaining in their own ways.

[@JustEpic_Yt]

Speaking of Nick jr sometimes I think they had a better lineup than the normal channel in the 2010’s. They had 2000’s left overs like Dora, fresh beat band, ni Hao Kai lan, backyardigans, & wonder pets with great 2010’s shows like team Umizoomi, bubble guppies, and wallykazam if you remember that. Early 2010’s Nick jr was a great time bc it seemed like every show was there (even little bill for a short while)

tbh whilst that is good for you and obv everyone has a different perspective imma have to disagree with you on this breadwinners was a crap show and i hated it even as a kid i just felt it was disgusting and not enjoyable whatsoever when you consider on the other side you had uncle grandpa, clarence and we bare bears which all dropped around the same time of breadwinners it kind of makes breadwinners look forgettable and annoying and just bad in comparison

[@pablocasas5906]

I was an young adult when Breadwinners came out, but some of my younger relatives watched and I saw some bits and it seemed very annooying, the designs were weird and while the animation was sometimes nice and energetic it kind of made the same mistakes that all cartoons have to be constantly moving to grab kids' attention. The only major positive I can say is that the voice acting was great, at least the Neutral Spanish dub, which is the version I saw, where SwaySway had the same voice as Billy from Billy & Mandy and Jim from Trollhunters, while Buhdeuce had the same voice as Star-Lord, Legoshi from Beastars and Buster Bunny in Tiny Toons: Looniversity

In the UK, the main Nickelodeon was just live action shows with SpongeBob and one random Nicktoon that would leave and come when they felt like it. Nicktoons was where all the cartoons were.

[@TheGuyWhoGotRickrolled]

How to summarize Nickelodeon 1990’s: All 3 Children’s Networks were in their embryonic phase but It was off to a great start (Especially Nickelodeon) 2000’s: Not just the peak of Nickelodeon in quality, but the peak of Nickelodeon in ambition (I think Invader Zim and Avatar 2005 were the top 2 most expensive animated children shows across the three networks) 2010’s: A pretty big downgrade in quality, but at least kept its popularity and a few ok shows 2020’s: Officially had no telecast that reached 1 million views since January 2020, and SpongeBob officially died out

[@thedrewster0408]

1990s Nickelodeon also had Nickelodeon Studios at Universal Studios Florida which was like the first time for a regular kid outside of Los Angeles that you could experience on what film or television production was actually like. However, due to the state of Florida being a “right to work” state aka non-unionized and the state being way too hot and humid for regular film production many of the producers preferred to just film in LA and not have to fly over to Florida all the time. Which was often one of if not the main reason why Nickelodeon Studios had met its demise by 2005 after being open for 15 years of operation. As well as the network moving towards working on animated programming rather than just game shows or live action sitcoms by the late 90s. Case in point, the studio at Florida wasn’t equipped for making animated tv programming.

[@waters228_91]

The fact that Glitch Techs got prematurely canceled perfectly demonstrates how far contemporary Nickelodeon has plummeted. It just seems every network, company, business, etc. is just all cash grabs and less passion. It especially hurts for people who dreamed of getting their own made cartoons greenlit for whichever network they see is available. I'm beginning to believe the only way we'll ever get new, unprecedented cartoons these days is if the television gets new channels.

[@thebrightdiamondtp7871]

Indie seems to be the way to go right now, as long as you have a way to manufacture merchandise to fun the series

[@SlamTF2]

one of the biggest problems in general is that the internet and handheld devices have completely taken away Children's attention spans. I'm not a doomer that's gonna say "kids have ZERO attention span", but any 9 year old with an iphone would rather just browse youtube to find the exact content they want with little to no ads (much of it brainrot or specifically made play on children's attention spans) and stare at that all day. As a result there are much less kids watching Nick/Disney/CN and thus a larger percentage of the networks' audiences are adults who are only there for the shows they grew up on. This makes it extremely hard for new shows to gain a footing that makes the executives of these dying networks want to keep them around over just re-running proven money-makers.

Exactly. But to be honest, Nick's not doing much. They need to bring back NickRewind to compete with Checkered Past. They need to rerun the classics - Rugrats, Jimmy Neutron, Rocko, daytime Ren and Stimpy, and much, much more.

Nickelodeon died, when SpongeBob became the only relevant thing in it (even after the death of the creator) they still continue pumping out brainrotted episodes which are not even close to the OG 3 seasons

[@quangamershyguyyz7166]

Spongebob doesn’t have to be exactly like the first 3 seasons to be good. It’s perfectly fine to not be

[@ogome2927]

yh this is the truth it basically started to fall off a cliff beginning in 2004 and tbh there is stats to back this up bc if you compare the animated nick shows that came out between 1991-2004 there is a far better library there then in comparison to the ones which have come out between 2005 onwards now and even the good shows from 05 onwards were never given a good chance like el tigre or harvey beaks

[@abdullahibouraleh6919]

​@@quangamershyguyyz7166 Exactly. I don't think people would like if they tried to copy that "typical" kind of humor today, they would call it "nostalgia baiting" or a pale imitation. Seasons 4 and 5 are, in my opinion, the closest to the first three. I personally consider the first 5 seasons the best. (My favorite since is season 11.) After a while, you have to shake up the writing, otherwise it would feel formulaic - and not in a good way.

I used to be a hardcore Nick fanboy when I was like 8, I would defend their awful programming to death, mainly just because I liked SpongeBob. Eventually though I realized that CN and Disney Channel had been putting out higher quality series in general and to be honest, I think Nick might be the weakest out of the three in terms of overall history. It could be argued that Avatar is better than any show put out by Disney or CN, but other than that, I really don’t believe Nicks show lineup is really as strong as the others, even considering their 90’s series.

probably not, they’ll just write off their newer shows (except The Loud House) and leave the 90’s-early 2000’s untouched thanks to that iconic Nicktoon brand they killed for “preservation” after 2011.

The only thing that can save Nickelodeon now is another animated avatar series after TLOK

[@MaximizedAnimation]

As someone who actually caught quite a few episodes of Rock Paper Scissors on TV, I gotta say it's actually pretty good. Sure the animation isn't the best quality and a couple of episodes lean more towards lowbrow humor, but most of the show is really witty and charming, the characters all have fun dynamics with each other, and even if some jokes don't land, they're delivered in such a charming way that you can't help but have a good time with it. I highly recommend people give it a chance, especially because for a while it seemed like it was gonna be the show that reached Spongebob and Loud House's level of success, but is now falling behind

[@mariahs6]

Nickelodeon poorly treating shows (Glitch Techs, Harvey Beaks, and Making Fiends especially) always comes to mind when I think of the network, they deserved better. I’m worried about Max and the Midknights. Nick barely advertised it and I haven’t heard anyone talking about it since its premiere… It’s sad because it’s another adaptation of a Lincoln Peirce story that’s going to get treated poorly (like, my jaw dropped when the Big Nate show got removed from Paramount+. I guess Nick just wanted people to pirate it, then…).

Disney Channel is the least likely actually... Nickelodeon and CN can exist as brands in a post-cable world. Disney Channel is literally just Disney with the word "Channel" slapped on. When cables inevitably dies, there will be no difference between something like Toy Story and something like Phineas and Ferb.
