    as you all know, there hasn't been a single episode air since the airing of Le big switch/ fungus among us on septem,ber 30th, 2007

    it's all been marathons and weeks

    and guess what, another one is coming.....

    they should really stop, why can't they air episodes week by week anymore

    the nick schedule has nothing on its time but reruns

    nickelodeon is out of it

    I, for 1, Loves Marathons. Don't get me wrong i like the single episode every other week. I just like the Marathon's better.

    I agree, Nickelodeon is taking premiere weeks too far. Before, they would do it just as a treat, but now that seems to be the only way they air new episodes. So far in 2008, they've done it with twice with SpongeBob, twice with The Fairly OddParents, once with Tak & the Power of Juju, once with H2O, once (secretly in the mornings) with El Tigre, once with Mighty B, and they're soon going to do it with Avatar. Come on, give each show their own weekly premiere time slot like every other network does it. Also, it's a rip-off how whenever they have a premiere week for a cartoon such as SpongeBob, they only air a single 11-minute short each day. So rather than 5 episodes, they're just airing 2 and a half.

    I think this is getting annoying as well. In fact, the only three episodes from season six that have aired on Fridays are Nautical Novice, Spongicus, and Pest of the West! Nickelodeon should just get back to the Friday premieres, I liked those better.

    Most of you are very eager to watch Goo Goo Gas. Is Nickelodeon getting weaker?

    i hate weeks because i usually miss them because of work, and its too much to catch up on.
    I like H20 weeks however because nick just keeps running out all the episodes of that show.
    I mean they show back to back new episodes on sundays and they have another week of new episodes coming, so pretty soon H20 will be out of episodes which im glad cause I HATE THAT SHOW.

    New Episode weeks are awesome! You've got something to look forward to each day. I'm glad they're airing SpongeBob episodes together. I can't wait to see next week's H20 episodes too. It's my favourite show ON Nick right now.

    They aren't bad. I hated it in DP's case for the last time they did it, but for SB, it's great! I hate sitting through marathons, and I like watching it each day rather than waiting another week to see the next episode! It's especially great during the school year because it gives you something to want to watch after school, but sadly, it's poor during summer, because you're just too busy going places and doing other things. Well, it's alright for Avatar cause it's at night, but terrible for shows like FOP and Barnyard cause i will most likely miss those due to having plans. El Tigre has the worst case cause it was at 6:30 a.m., and I'm never up at that time during the summer or whenever there's no school(unless Danny Phantom or Storm Hawks is on)!

    Also, I like the week things better than Saturday morning airings! Besides, now that I watch Ben 10: Alien Force every Saturday at 10 a.m.(because that show's AWESOME!), I always miss the premiere episode of Barnyard for a premiere Ben 10: Alien Force episode!)

    They'll just air reruns over and over on Sundays once they've finished. Kinda unbelievable that they run out that show early, though. Most shows end late, but this one ends early! Now that's a first!

    I can see that there are Pros and Cons for these Weekly new Episodes, and some either like it or don't like it, and they each got their reasons as to why it is a good or bad thing.

    Well, the only thing I feel like saying is that, for these Weekly Episodes, a Pro is that I think it kinda spreads it out and Happy friday usually plus it has you feel the nice Anticipation for a New Episode. the Second one is if that its a Show you like, them Spacing it out and only showing one New Episode a Week can help the Show last longer and it gives them more time to prepare an Episode so they won't have to rush as much and hurry through the Show by trying to Air as many Episodes as Possibleso they can endit so quickly.

    Come to think of it that may be why they're showing all of these Weekly Episodes of SpongeBob, to rush through it and end it because of all the Negative Reviews and such may be why they're tryin to end this Show as soon as possible.

    Nah, they just do it for ratings, which bring them money.
