Why did Muppet Babies air on regular Nickelodeon?

Not only did it not even air any new episodes on Nick, since they got it in 1992, but it's clearly a show for 3 year olds. It should have stayed exclusive to Nick Jr. rather than airing on both. It's a good thing that Muppet Babies reboot stayed exclusive to Disney Junior

Why did Nick air Gumby?

They already had enough original series to air, they didn't need to get broadcasting rights to air Gumby reruns in 1994! Regular Nickelodeon (Not Nick Jr. or Nick at Nite) could have filled their weekday lineup with mostly live-action shows and Doug and Rugrats, since those ones were Nick original series and they had enough episodes to air on weekdays by 1994

Why was Hey Dude so popular?

People say the show was boring, but it lasted for 8 years in reruns after ending in 1991

Which Nicktoon character is most like you as a person and why?

Considering everything about you and your personality, who would you be out of all the Nicktoons and why exactly?

I'm an equal mix of Judy Funnie and Arnold because I'm an artist, poet, & musician, and I'm a good listener, try to help people, and I love jazz.

Did you ever “meet” the Eureeka’s Castle “puppets” on set?

I remember R.L. Stine told this story about a girl who visited the set and she got so scared that she found out that the characters were not real, they were puppets.

Something about the karaoke machine just made me love it.

I loved the colors. I wanted that so badly as a kid. The colors are just so pleasing and exciting. I still want it now, as an adult. ALL GROWED UP og special.

Does anyone have the episode with the kid….

This would be for Double Dare——That apparently had fragile bone syndrome? Obviously, he never told producers or did it ever air.

Thanks to whoever found my double dare episode!

Someone found my episode when I was picked out of my 5th grade class to compete on double dare! I spent 50 seconds stuck on the sundae slide and totally gave up! I remember feeling SO humiliated!

Thanks to whoever posted this!

Spongebob's name was originally going to be "Spongeboy" but it wasn't used because a cleaning product already had that name (go figure)

Also, the creator of Spongebob came from the writing team of Rocko's Modern Life and the first pilot was finished in 1997.

Growing up, which friend group/ location did you wish you grew up with/ at?

I’d definitely have to choose growing up with Arnold, Gerald & the gang. The vibrant city, interesting characters, urban legends, and the music all seemed perfect for me growing up.

I would have also loved to visit the Thornberrys for a few weeks during summers just to travel the world.

Helping find this christmas special/episode from early 2000s

I've been trying to remember the name of this christmas episode or special that most likely to my memory aired on Nickelodeon in the early 2000s (according to memory, I don't know if it could have aired elsewhere)

From what I could remember, it was about this black kid who is asking about Santa and theres even a scene where he's asking God about him. He wants this certain thing for christmas and on the morning he only gets socks from his family until Santa actually does get him the gift he wants (I can't remember what it was specifically). Like it was definetely a heavy black culture themed kind of special (and I don't know if it was part of a regular program that was/use to be on).

EDIT: I FOUND IT! It was called A Boo Crew (or Thugaboo) and was made by the wayans brothers. Wierd it says it aired in 2006 but I somewhat remember it airing much earlier than that.

Good Burger will always be amazing

And I don’t care if Dan Schneider is in it. It’s not like he’s playing himself. Does anyone else feel the same way? Good Burger is OUR movie. I’m not going to just never watch any of my favorite Nickelodeon content ever again, that has Dan involved. That’s just silly. I still love Dory the Fish even if she’s voiced by Ellen.

Does anybody knows What Is this logo called?

I've seen a wiki compiling various Nick closing logos from various shows (such as the Nick Atom from Kenan and Kel, the baseball cap from Alex Mack, the Nickelodeon productions lightbulb from shows like the Amanda show to iCarly, etc.) but most of the articles seem to forget about this logo that appeared on episodes from Ren and Stimpy or Rugrats and almost never mention It, so i wonder, What Is this logo named?

Double Dare

I was a contestant on one of the very first original episodes of double dare. They had all red uniforms- I got stuck on the sundae slide and sprained my ankle. I just remember how we ate bonkers in the green room or purple room and sported a brand new pair of Reebok kicks. I remember the day- they felt so bad I had a sprained ankle they invited me back to be in the audience for another schools taping. We’re talking like early 80s- I filmed without having seeing the show so I had no clue what to expect. I remember Marc summers was trying not to laugh at me as I struggled for 50 seconds on the 3rd obstacle course, the sundae slide- and didn’t win the trip to Disney. Won a Walkman, Garfield phone and $240
