A 1930's to 1950's (roughly)expression meaning a juke box, which was a machine usually located in diners or bars that played popular music singles on small 45 records. Most were large, streamlined, stylish speaker boxes with neon lighg bands and chrome. So called because of the company that made them, and the price of a song was a nickel.
Hey momma, lets fire up the ol' nickelodeon. I'm "In The Mood" (Popular song title of the time. Instumental "Big Band" song by Glen Miller.)

A producer of cartoons that airs them as well. Famous for Spongebob Squarepants
Nickelodeon is just about the worst cartoon producing company ever. Watch Cartoon Network instead. It will definitely be worth your time

A channel that used to reign supreme in the world of cartoons, but is now complete trash. If Nickelodeon revived classics such as Hey Arnold!, Rugrats, Doug, Kenan and Kel, All That, etc. Nickelodeon might--just MIGHT have a chance to redeem itself from the crap it has become.
Hey Arnold
Rugrats
Old SpongeBob

^^Are a few of the many shows that made Nickelodeon great.

The channel for kids ages 5-17. It has shows such as spongebob, fairly odd parents and icarly. It also aired classics such as rugrats doug kablaam ahh real monsters and catdog. It is full of fun for most ages. There is an orange loge that has been changed over teh years.
Nickelodeon is the best channel ever.

The worst channel ever next to Disney Channel. The last time I watched Nick, they had gay ass shows like Rugrats, Spongebob, and Invader Zim. It's probably even worse today.
Nickelodeon? More like Gayalodeon
