What is Nick thinking?!

[webhead731]

Jeez, The Naked Brothers Band?! Are they on drugs now?

I don't even watch Nick anymore, I watch Nick@Nite, which advertises this crappy new show. It's about little 8 year olds in some band that has very bad music. They get all these 15-20 year old women going after them like they're good. They also play music videos all the time and it's really bad.

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G7Q-hJC2jw (WARNING, I suggest having good music handy after listening to this)

Is this suppose to be real? I'd hope not...

 

[Savage]

It is. My friends and I share your pain. Each video is cringe worthy...

 

[Warhammer]

Oh God.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I watch Nick in the morning since nothing else is on. They always play their stupid music video between shows. I always mute it.

 

[webhead731]

Good! I wish I could do that too. I'm too lazy though lol.

 

[JackBauer]

*sigh* I remember when Nick had good shows like Doug and Rocko's Modern Life. looking at this makes it feel like centuries ago.

 

[zer00]

wonder why kids are so ******ed these days

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Because their parents are?

 

[zer00]

well that is one side

 

[webhead731]

It's really sad how shows for kids these days are,

1. Really gay, making kids gay.

2. Just plain stupid.


I don't understand why we can't have good stuff anymore.

Because this generation's parents want their kids to grow up to be P**sies. Pretty simple really. I miss my violence and actual attempts at humor. Kids today would cry if they saw Ren and Stimpy. Probably why Zim was cancelled.

Zim was the last true Nick show. That show was great. I watched an episode on the Nicktoons channel (basically all of Nicks older shows) and I still laughed.

 

[NDX]

It sucks that the only time I get to watch Rocko's Modern Life and Ren & Stimpy is 3 and 4 in the morning. And goddammit I keep missing Zim!

 

[Spidey-Bat]

They used to have Doug and Kablam on but they took them off

 

[The Question]

Nick used to be at the pinnacle of children's programming. Now it's one of the worst examples you could find. The only things on it now that are as good as Nick's old stuff are Avatar and occassional bits in Spongebob. Fairly Odd Parents and Danny Phantom would have been average by Nick's old standards. And the rest is crap.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Avatar is interesting and an attempt to make something decent on Nick. It should be on Cartoon Network though.

 

[NDX]

Danny Phantom was a good show, but had no real replay entertainment. If you saw the episode once, that was about it. Shows like Ren & Stimpy, Rocko and AHHHHH! Real Monsters you could watch over and over weekly.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

That's true about Danny Phantom. Every episode is the same. Plus the whole idea is a cliche (it's basically Spider-Man but with ghost powers).

 

[NDX]

Although Aunt May never tried to obliterate Parker. At least, not that I recall.

 

[webhead731]

Well, she does become Carnage.

 

[The Question]

Avatar is interesting and an attempt to make something decent on Nick. It should be on Cartoon Network though.

Why? It should be on Nick to up the quality standards there.

 

[AllThingsComic]

What's up wih little Jimi Hendrix? Every black musician who plays guitar has to resemble Jimi? A little racial, no? lol

 

[04nbod]

only good thing on nick thats not a repeat(some of the time at least) is fairly odd parents.

 

[PenanceStare]

The real question is why does Nick at Nite suck so much right now. The only have like 3 shows, Roseanne, Fresh Prince, and Cosby Show.

Is it just me, but between all the marathons, and showing like 2-4 episodes a night, hasn't Nick beaten the Fresh Prince reruns to death? I mean, its a great show but it was only on for 5 seasons, which for Nick it takes like 3 weeks to get through before the restart again.

 

[webhead731]

They have Full House but who cares.

I love Nick@Nite and Fresh Prince and Roseanne alot. I can watch them over and over.

But they had shows from summer 05 that they could bring back. They had new shows this summer that dissapeared.
