Nickelodeon (ended 2012)
Idk, the Gravity Falls review doesn't really make me want to see it. It seems similar to Adventure Time/Regular Show/Cartoon Network shows. I've never grown up watching CN and I still haven't, but I've heard they are good. I've always been more into sitcoms than cartoons, with the exception Nickelodeon and a few adult cartoons.
IA that ever since they changed writers after the Spongebob movie it seemed like a completely different series. They should have ended it with the movie and called it a day(it would wrap up the series nicely).
These are the animated series coming to Nickelodeon
1. Sanjay and Craig
Something about two rebellious best friends? I sort of have high hopes for this one, because the writers that did "The Adventures of Pete and Pete" (the best!) are producing this.
2. Monsters vs. Aliens
Based off of that movie I had free tickets to yet still didn't see. I'm sick of Nickelodeon using Dreamworks tv series. It'll probably be like the Barnyard and Kung Fu Panda ones that flopped. It probably won't be as good as the Penguin one(they are actually sort of marketable and amusing).
3. Some Nick Jr. show, I forgot what it was. Maybe there are 2 of them
4. Bad Seeds(not yet greenlighted though) is about a good bird hanging with a bad crowd.
This one has Spongebob alums as writers and the creator of Chowder. Even though I don't like that show, I think it has the potential to be good. I hope Nickelodeon will approve this one.
Overall, I think Nickelodeon can start to get their game back starting with those 2 cartoons. Plus, they still have Legend of Korra. It's probably Nick's most popular show now, which is good. iCarly and Victorious ending shouldn't be making people HAPPY if they hate it. Sam and Cat AND Gibby are going to replace those 2 shows. If you don't like iCarly, do you honestly think you'll like these two shows?? Unless they just hated Carly and Tori or something, then maybe. At least Gibby is going to be singing. I think it's great that Nickelodeon still has Dan Schneider. I think sitcom wise it is as close to old school Nick as they get. Like I said, I really think iCarly has the old school Nick humor. It's like a combination of stoner humor, innuendos, and bizarre/random stuff....yet still very family/kid oriented. He could go downhill with his writing, but I'm not going to judge yet. Wendell and Vinnie sounds like it's going to be really good for Nick @ Nite. They are improving their network, I think.
What they really need to do is get the people who do BTR to make a show more similar to Ned's Declassified again. They need Bucket and Skinner to be cancelled. The ratings for that show sucks. They need to stop trying to make How to Rock happen. I don't care if Master P or whatever wanted this for him and his daughter, sorry. She's not Lil' Romeo. They need to bring back Legends of the Hidden Temple and other game shows besides Figure it Out. They need more slime, maybe slimetime live or something. Keep Dan Schneider. Add a few more cartoons. Cancel Fanboy and Chum Chum(I thought it ended last year damnit). End Fairly Odd Parents and get those writers to make a new cartoon. Also, get them to advertise and air this chiz better. They should bring Amy Poehler back and make a new show, Parks&Rec and Amy is flawless. I never watched The Mighty B, but she would be great for Nickelodeon. [/dream for Nickelodeon.]
BTW, I watched 2 episodes of Jessie on Disney so I could understand the comparisons people make of this "babysitting" storyline and she SINGS. Badly. In the other episode, she wants to be an ACTRESS. What the heck? Come on now, Ariana and Jennette are talented and likable. Plus they aren't going to be always singing/being famous. If they were, at least they'll actually sound good and have a good song.
I was slamming the keys on the keyboard of my computer while typing this really long post. So much frustration lol.

I love Sopngebob! I know it can be a bit much at times, but I love some the classic episodes. I know someone mentioned a 90s kid. I love some of the new ones as well. |

Still wondering when Nickelodeon will release a finale date. |
Well I guess everyone has theiropinion. I find that art and characters are beautifully designed and that the animation is very smooth. Especially during the opening credits. It reminds me very much of the 90's. The only show I've seen nowadays with horrible animation is Fish Hooks and Johnny Test.

Yeah, I mean it's already been said it was in November that the very final episode of iCarly would air, but I'm beginning to wonder how that'll work with we're getting so close to that time and there's still several new episodes left. |

Nickelodeon ends up changing it's air dates fairly regular, it's not a smart move. They need to space out the new episodes by about 2 or 3 weeks; it's all over the place at the moment. |
Yeah, unfortunately I doubt that will happen.

Yeah and Nick's sporadic with their new episodes. You might get one a week later, then the next will be three months down the line! Or they just do what they did last year, have them all surge into one month, then wait another several months before the next episode.
Quite frankly, it ticks me off
