vh1

Stands for Video Hits One. A second music video channel started by MTV in 1985. Originally hyphenated as "VH-1" until 1994. Currently owned by Viacom, who also owns MTV, CBS, Showtime, and Nickelodeon.

While VH1 doesn't show many videos, it does more interesting stuff like "I Love The 70's/80's" unlike that boring, predictable, and fake reality TV crap shown on MTV.

Nickelodeon

A cable channel started by Warner Cable (the same company that invented MTV) in 1977 as "Pinwheel". The channel changed names to "Nickelodeon" in 1979 with unforgettable shows like "You Can't Do That On Television" which originated Nickelodeon's "sliming" trademark.

heaven

A place that seems to get further and further away as humans' scientific knowledge improves.

About 100 years ago, Heaven was right above our heads. Then, when we started flying airplanes, it wasn't there, so it was moved right above the atmosphere. Finally, when we sent people into outer space and to the moon, it wasn't there either, so now Heaven is way past Pluto somewhere.

DIC

Stands for Diffusion, Information, and Communication. An animation company that brought us Inspector Gadget, Sonic The Hedgehog, translated (and apparently badly if that's possible)that Sailor Moon crap from Japan, and, infamously, made M.C. Hammer's own short-lived cartoon "Hammerman".

Their end logo is well-known: the kid in bed with the bedroom window open, in which the camera zooms out of as a star swirls around dotting the I in DIC, and an unseen kid says "DIC" as that happens. Weird idea to feature a kid in bed in my opinion.

DIC is not pronounced "dick", although that would be funny!
