Nickelodeon had some good shows in the 90's like The Original All That, Clarissa Explians it all, The original Rugrats, Hey
Arnold, The Angry Beavers,and Invader Zim. Then the pot smokers at Nick decieded that good ratings and good shows were bad so they cancelled them all and brought these crappy shows like The new All-That,Unfabulous,FairlyOddparents,
Avatar,and The X's. The only decent shows on there are Drake and Josh, Spongebob, and Ned's declassified.

A channel that used to be good in the 1990s and 2000s. It had amazing stuff like Rocko's Modern Life, Danny Phantom, The Angry Beavers, Invader Zim and Avatar: the Last Airbender.
Now, it has horrible shit nobody cares for like Breadwinners, Fanboy & Chum Chum, Planet Sheen and Pig Goat Banana Cricket.

Nickelodeon is like Will Ferrell......
Constant yammering about nonsense, heavily annoying and no originality at all.
What happened to he greatness of this show?
Ren and Stimpy, Doug, Rugrats, Rocko's Modern Like, Pete and Pete, Afraid of the dark, GUTS, Etc.
Now all it shows are cartoons with crap animation added with annoying characters and with no plot.
They need to bring these shows back.

1. Originally, a smaller silent movie theater, often made out of an old converted storefront, which cost a five cents for admission. The literal definition of the word nickelodeon is "nickel theater", from "nickel" (a five cent piece), and "odeon" (the Greek word for theater).
2. A term applied to any American-made coin operated piano or orchestrion. This usage came about because many nickelodeon theatre owners who could not afford a live pianist or orchestra to accompany the film would buy a coin piano or orchestrion and turn it on and let it play all day, with the assumption that any music (even if it was not coordinated with what was going on on the screen) was better than no music at all! Later, special instruments such as the photoplayer and theatre organ were produced specifically to accompany silent movies, and these could be operated by a single person, either playing manually with the keyboards and controls, or using special "mood music" rolls they could coordinate with the action on the screen.
3. A TV channel for kids, with both animated and live-action shows, some of which are exclusive to that network. It has been around since about c.1990, and the quality and programming has been somewhat controversial.
4. A movie made in 1976 starring Ryan O'Neal and Burt Reynolds. It was directed by Peter Bogdanovich and tells the tale of a couple of early silent film actors/makers. Was not terribly successful, and has been alternately maligned and praised.
5. For some reason, dictionaries have listed the word "nickelodeon" as a slang term for "jukebox", which in itself is a slang term for a coin-operated phonograph. I have never personally heard this usage, as most people who see a jukebox know what it is called. This usage, if indeed it exists, probably comes from the fact that the jukebox largely replaced the coin piano and orchestrion in public places such as bars and restaurants by performing essentially the same function: providing music for money. This changeover happened about 1930 or so.

1. "It's Saturday, what shall we do to-day?"
"Why don't we go down to the nickelodeon and see that new Charlie Chaplin movie, it's supposed to be very funny."
2. barfly to another barfly "Drop a nickel in the nickelodeon; I want some music to go with my 'suds'."
3."What do you think of Nickelodeon nowadays?"
"I think it would be better if they stuck with shows like Hey! Arnold and Pete and Pete, instead of all this new stuff that's really too bland and trendy."
4. {girl to another girl) "So how was 'Nickelodeon'?"
"I liked Burt Reynolds better in 'White Lightning'."
5. "Hey brother, do you have a dime? They got that new Fats Domino record in the nickelodeon."
"That ain't no 'nickelodeon', man, that's a juke box."

One of the, if not THE, most anti-parent television stations to ever exist. They always portry parents as stupid, worthless, and not worthy to be respected.

A channel that used to have great shows like Hey Arnold, Rocko's Modern Life, Ren & Stimpy, Salute your Shorts, Kenan and Kel, Clarissa Explains it all, and many more.
Then somebody decided it would be nice to fuck everybody up the ass by targeting their audience to immature homosexual 6 year old cockfags and canceling all their "inappropriate" shows.
Hell even Spongebob was ok for its first season. Same with the Fairly Odd Parents. But after that, they took a long load of shit off work and just played re-runs and Polly Pocket commercials.
When they came back, they completely gayed up everything. For example, in nearly every Spongebob episode, he is always crying like a baby, or singing in his usual high-pitched voice.
When they made Invader Zim all sanity was thought to have been restored. Then it's canceled. Quickly. What a load of fuck.
Whenever they try to make new shows, they completely fail. They make it, turns out it sucks Ron Paul's balls, and then they cancel it. For example, Catscratch. Or Kappa Mikey. Or El Tigre. Or Just Jordan. Or Marvin Mystery. And Jimmy Neutron (EW that show was so gay).
The exact same will happen with the extremely eye-watering utter fail shows Back at the Barnyard, and The Mighty B.
Nickelodeon used to have events like U-Pick-Live for example. Then they "re-made" it with overenthusiastic nerd hosts. Every day you'd hear them say, "and HERE'S more, SPONGEBOB!!" and it would just be another fucking re-run.
And yet at the "Kid's Choice Awards" they'd bring back Pick boy, and all the little 5 year olds would be like "wtf is he?" because they canceled him a long time ago. :/
And speaking of Kid's Choice Awards, notice how these asshats always pick people like, hannah montana for example, as "best actress", etc. What the fuck is wrong with these kiddies?
They seem so interested with their Naked Brothers Band. Well of course, just like them, their testicles haven't dropped yet. The naked brothers band thinks it "cool" to play sing-a-long songs in front of a microphone, and the lead "singer" with the mole on his face and with bloodshot eyes and greasy hair thinks he's "sexy".
Now here we are again with re-runs of gay shows released at least 100 years ago like Spongebob or the Fairly Odd Parents.
Thank you Nickelodeon. Thank you for making America's children interested in shows in which the characters CONSTANTLY TALK TO THEMSELVES. And sing, and cry, all the freaking time. And have lame, lame jokes.
You have inspired me to kill myself. Thank you, Nickelodeon.

A television channel that at one time owned. But they canceled all the good shows and replaced them with shows aimed at six-year-olds (so what does that make Nick Jr., like, two-year-old shit?), made a brief comeback with Invader Zim, but canceled that and is dying now.
They recently started an American-drawn anime show called Avatar: The Last Airbender. That show sucks more than all the other shows combined.
