Honestly, I don't think it would be a terrible idea to end SpongeBob. I mean, the show is being aired for almost 20 years, and I think it would be very cool if they end the show with the third movie that is coming soon. And I don't want SpongeBob turn into a Simpsons-like cartoon. Also, the fact Nickelodeon changed their website makes me really sad, it reminds me the days I spended playing SpongeBob flash games at that website and watching the episodes from the show too. That was the site's golden days :')
Nickelodeon sure did have a rough year, Butch Hartman leaving Nick, Dan Schneider scandal that's going on and being fired from the company, and especially Stephen Hillenburg passing away from ALS. I just hope Nickelodeon will do better in 2019
I still pine for what could have been with Harvey Beaks. Fantastic show aimed at younger kids with modern, nuanced lessons and ‘morals.’ It’s a shame Nickelodeon crapped on it and didn’t give it an honest shot.
Harvey Beaks actually had all 52 half hours air. But the show got moved to Nicktoons after season one, meaning season 2 aired on Nicktoons. It's a shame.
@@technologyproductions-ye3px Agreed, it's sad to see that the majority of show-runners now are motivated by money and not telling a good story with their shows.
@@eztrix0342 I mean corparations in general that if left unchecked can be unhinged and corrupt corparations like to go to the government to get their way or pressure a platform into giving them all the power.
Due to Hillenburg's passing, I believe the show should end because while younger and newer viewers might not know who Hillenburg is, older viewers will be constantly reminded. I also believe that continuing a show after a creator's passing (I know all of the RWBY related comments coming my way), it's doing the creator a disservice. So just put the end to it and maybe, just possibly, they'll get a new cash cow in the future.
I respectfully disagree and feel the opposite. While Hillenberg was a major part of the show’s revival, he wasn’t the sole hand behind it, he lead a team. And I think it would be a greater disservice to him to end the show now and make his efforts to bring it back from its dark ages in vain.
I stopped watching SpongeBob and Nickelodeon consistently a long time ago while SpongeBob is getting better it still isn't as good as it was back in the early 2000s and it will likely never be that good again personally I don't care if the show ends or continues its just kinda mediocre now and I've completely lost interest in it.
@@LendriMujina But with Hillenberg gone and some iconic voices from the cast like Ernest Borgnine (Mermaid Man) no longer with us. How much longer should/can the series go on, before it loses anymore familiar people
I honestly doubt even if for whatever reason the crew wanted to end Spongebob, that Viacom would let them. It is a cash cow. So, it's gonna be dying a slow and painful death. But ignoring the financial side of things? Sure.
Nickelodeon is 95% live action and not even the good kind either and the other 5% is cartoons and they are mediocre. (Except for The Loud House and Some SpongeBob.)
Once Henry Danger wraps up I'm terminating my relationship with Nickelodeon indefinitely. Henry Danger is the only live action show worth while and The Loud House will no doubt get the Danny Phantom or Jimmy Neutron treatment, or even worse, the My Life as A Teenage Robot treatment and never be mentioned again after the 4th season.
Well, Nickelodeon used to be a live action channel back in the 70s and 80s before Rugrats involved with the channel to become cartoon channel that we all in love.
The only thing i wish Nickelodeon can improve is to stop making live action shows. Don’t get me wrong, I love their live action shows like drake and josh, Zoey 101, icarly, victorious, big time rush, etc. But I just think it’s time for nick to just focus on cartoons and leave the live action shows for good. As for sponge bob, I don’t mind it still going on for a while, but if I had to end it, i think I rather end it after the third movie, and have one final special episode to close the show. But overall, I think spongebob Is doing well.
I don't know. I mean, yeah, a lot of people prefer Nicktoons over their live action shows, but life action shows are and have been a core aspect of Nick from the very beginning. the channel's first show was life action (Pinwheel), its first line up of shows were package shows with life-action segments. Hell, if it wasn't for You Can't Do That On Television, a live action show, Nick might haven't made it through the 80s. Giving up on Live-Action all together and just focusing on its cartoons would be turning its back on a genre that helped it in its first decade of operation. And as you pointed it out, it's not like Nick haven't had critical success with its live-action content. it just needs to find a way to do it again.
I disagree. Live action has been a staple of the network and I don't think they should completely abandon it. I can't say I watch the current group of live action shows though but I feel if Nickelodeon abandoned live action completely then I think Nick would suffer along with CN in ratings as they both would essentially be trying to compete for the same audience. That being said the competition could give more cartoons a better chance to succeed.
It's overusing reused plots and things. It's run its course. And I actually like some of the live action. Cartoon Network is the home of cartoons only. Both networks would be committing creativity suicide if they both did nothing but cartoons. Every idea would be exhausted and we would have to go on a 20-30 year hiatus from animation to give creators time to refuel their wrung out brains.
Last year, PETA, the animal rights activist group, asked Nickelodeon to give the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles "vegan pizza." I honestly would say that it is uncalled for and profoundly dumb, mainly because they should not interfere with fiction and turtles in real life are omnivores. And no, I am not a supporter of them, but even I have standards such as caring about "certain" animals.
Gerald Singer uhhh some animals eat other animals too so... PETA I respect that you wanna fight for animal rights I feel animals deserve their rights too but tackle actual animal abuse not petty stuff like this.
No more Schneider...no more Hartman...no more Hillenburg...no more Zarghami...heck, no more website. 2019 will be a wholly new landscape for Nickelodeon. It'll be interesting to see the directions they take this year.
Inspiration Date so far looking good more Nicktoons are on the way half the sitcoms got cancelled All That is one of the most promoted shows Nick is up to something
I can't do NickToons anymore. Most of it is descending into the pit where only 8 to 10 year olds will watch it. If I need a cartoon fix I'll actually go to Cartoon Network or Disney. Sure it's hard dodging Teen Titans Go, but it's better than seeing the sadness that is Nickelodeon. Side note: It would be funny if you started your next video with "Alpha hey from the Alpha Jay".
We got a free trial of Nicktoons a while back. Couldn't watch it because the majority of the shows they show are the terrible ones (i.e. Bunsen and Alvin and the Chipmunks). I did manage to DVR some classic FOP though.
Tmnt 2012 was my childhood. Like how the 1970 version was the childhood of the older generation. Rise of the TMNT is just one of those shows which will always be criticized by older fans but be loved by newer ones. For me it’s difficult to change from the three dimensional animation of the 2012 version.
At the moment, at a large scale, I think all Nickelodeon really needs is to bide its time until its management changes hands. Even in its current state, it has more than enough momentum and power to survive until a change occurs naturally. So the network entering a _slumber_ is preferable to it being a repeat of, say, the Fanboy & Chum Chum/Breadwinners/Sanjay & Craig/Dark Spongebob era. Right now, the channel’s playing it safe. A tactical retreat. In *that* era, though, it was a full-packed minefield that was actively harming its own reputation. Though speaking of Spongebob, I feel cancelling it _right this moment_ would not only not be respectful to Hilleburg, but it would be a flat-out _insult_ to his legacy. He and his team worked long and hard to bring it back from its abyss. Why make their efforts in vain?
Couldn’t have said it better myself really. Ending the show right now would be disrespectful to what he’s done. I always felt like Stephen had faith in Spongebob. He and his team have brought it back to glory. They’re finally out of a bad period with the show and they shouldn’t end it because Stephen passed.
If your gonna end Spongebob, at all even; at best leave it on a high note. As for how to end it on a high note. be something as close to how when the 1st movie was for Spongebob, only in this case have the finalie be where he finally got his driver license.
pichugirl6 Heck, there’s a lot more character arcs to close than that. I mean, take an episode like “The Original Fry Cook”; there’s so much of what Jim said about how Spongebob’s working at a greasy spoon like the Krusty Krab for a money-grubbing boss like Mr Krabs is preventing him from being a truly great frycook that’s worth looking deeper into. (Yes, I know how confusing that sentence is; I can’t figure out how to untangle it.) Or take EmpLemon’s video about the show and the interplay of Spongebob and Squidward that makes the early seasons so iconic (ua-cam.com/video/cYu7Y52iiYI/v-deo.html ); Squidward has a lot he could potentially learn from Spongebob about finding joy in the life you have.
@@KnakuanaRka I was gonna bring up about how Spongebob could move on to being a better frycook. but given how this show cliche a few times where he quit either by thinking he's a famous movie star in one commerical, thinking of being a model in that one episode that got away of what is spongebob's equivalent of a porn show. Not two mention the 2 infamous bad episodes where Mr. Krabs fire Spongebob to save a nickel even thou Spongebob helps to bring in all the customers, and then the episode where he makes all his friends mad that he leaves Bikini Bottom and loses his memory. If their gonna do make him quit, be tactful, and not for a cheap comedy.
To be honest: Given the rumors of Rugrats getting a return to the network and the other TV films based on 90's Nick shows, I would at the very least give Spongebob a break after its upcoming film. At least allow it to go out quietly and let new shows take over for a while. That way the overall network can continue to grow with new shows and animation series for a new generation. Right ?
I think spongebob should do a farewell episode and a tribute to the creator. Like sponge bob or mr krabs moves away. And then it point to the sky and it says in loving memory of Stephen. But idk lol
I feel like Spongebob should continue for around a year, and if it’s bad, they can shelve it. The creator of the show leaving doesn’t necessarily mean the show will become bad immediately. MLP:FiM survived for nearly 5-6 years before going into a decline during Season 8 after Lauren Faust left the show during Season 2.
Eh. I'm not a huge fan of the "school" setup, and tbh "everycreature" is even more awkward to hear than "everypony". Also I don't really care for the Young 6 as much as the Mane 6, although there's basically nothing more they can do with the Mane 6 at this point.... it's not bad per say, but it lacks the same spark it had in seasons 1-5. Thankfully they're ending it soon, before it can actually get bad.
ehh there are so many proplems with the school like most of the mane six suddenly being teachers when not only do they have day jobs but they also aren't teacher material. The closest is Twilight and she still failed on a few reguards with Starlight. The student six had so little screen time that it is damaging and they regressed some of the characters (namely AJ and RD) to a desterbing point. Yes there are good things but over all, not as many as I and many others I spoke to expected. Which made it feel like a down grade.
@@cameoshadowness7757 Yeah, the Mane 6 definitely aren't teacher material. I would've been more on board if it was just Twilight teaching a small group in her normal castle, since she's the only one without a real job and has enjoyed teaching students before (Twilight Time and Top Bolt come to mind, but I'm sure there are others.) And I can't help but find it a little odd that they're teaching friendship in classrooms now... when in earlier seasons it was emphasized that friendship is something unique that you have to build, not something you can just teach with books and tests... but I digress. I think I've said enough, and I don't want to sound negative.
@@Commenter839 I understand your point of view. Honestly the show isn't making much sense at this point and although there are things that are good, they easily get over taken by the bad. Honeslt the show does feel like it hit season rot at this point.
Honestly I don't like nick very much. I like some shows but not many. Nick seems to be focusing on the younger and younger people. As I get older I don't like that very much. It was a huge part of my childhood and I wish it the best.
Tilt Assault I have the same viewpoint as you do on Nickelodeon. I enjoyed the channel when I was younger, but now that I’m older I don’t ever seem to want to tune in.
When The Loud House first came out, I stopped watching Fairly Oddparents. Now every time I try to watch it again, I find it very annoying because The Loud House is very relaxing
Woah... I didn't realise Hillenburg, Hartman, AND "Feet are neat" Synder were gone. I mean those guys basically took over after the raunchy John K. era. I think if they hire more up and comers they might stand a chance but it looks bkeak for the Splat channel. Soon all they'll be doing is dragging in more wrestlers for a monthly Kids Choice Awards
Nickelodeon,CN and Disney/Disney xD should hire youtubers (or on social media) who want to make animated shows and know what they're doing (like in the case with Final Space) or hold annual contests where the top 3 winners will be granted a show or a pilot.
The shitshow Breadwinners actually came from UA-cam creators and same with The Annoying Orange. Keep the UA-cam creator fellow kids shitstorm off my Nickelodeon please.
Nickelodeon is in a tough spot going into 2019, and how they make things work this year will be important, as they continue to shift into a new set of properties (both animated and live-action). I do have to disagree about the doom-and-gloom comments on the state of television though. Yes, ratings are shrinking, but that's across the board. I don't see television going anytime soon (or even medium-term) because there are quite a few detriments to streaming services that have reared (or will rear) their heads as time has gone on.
I agree i feel cable tv will die but broadcast tv will live since its free and easily accessible and doesnt suffer as many ratings clutches as cable tv
Nicktoons hasn't been as praised or relevant as a brand in the last ten years. But with some new shows under this new management and actually giving them more a chance being their own hits (and not another SpongeBob), Nick will have a much better and stronger arsenal of Nicktoons.
I want a whole separate 90s nick channel. I would watch that 24/7. I love Nick Splat and I think it would be a good idea if they had a separate channel for it. There's "MTV Classic" now with all music videos all the time, as god intended lmao, and they play 80s and 90s stuff a lot! Iconic
Its sad that TV is dying. TV has always been a part of my life but its clearly going the way of the dodo. As for Nick. I think they need to revamp their whole interface and business. Focus on the app build around that with access to all kinds of new and old content.
It was ehhh for the most part. I thought Loud House third season was its best imo and I thought SpongeBob was still doing great but overall the shows were blah. Don't care for Kid Dangers and it's sad that they're not giving Welcome to the Wayne more of a chance and it's best Miraculous is on Netflix (still a great show)
Here's my two cents on Nickelodeon's 2018 state: Many people are upset that Nickelodeon is focusing more on live-action than animation, but if you ask me, I'd say it's good business sense for them. Why spend tons of money & months of time making animated shows that the 2-11 year olds aren't watching when you could just show them cheaper sitcoms that they ARE interested in? It seems that a lot of Nickelodeon creators are really trying to copy of Dan Schneider and make sitcoms like his. Plus, Dan's friend, Brian Robbins, is now Nick's president, so that especially affirms those opinions. They haven't completely abandoned animation though. They've still got some animated projects in the works--Glitch Techs, Los Casagrandes, Pony, Enter the Florpus, Static Cling. Of course, some of those are taking awhile to air. Static Cling has been finished for a year now, and even Joe Murray doesn't know when it's airing, and on his website, he told me in a comment that he's even very frustrated about Static Cling not airing yet, though he doesn't believe Nick will scuttle it. Pinky Malinky recently aired on Netflix, and it was delayed for over 2 years. Chris Garbutt, the creator, told me on Twitter that the reason being was due to Nickelodeon changing their programming strategy, and the Netflix deal having to go through. And they weren't the only ones to suffer from the former. That could also explain why Glitch Techs and Static Cling still haven't aired yet. The former actually halted production yesterday and seems to be in limbo until season 1 airs. Plus, 2018 was a huge transitional year for Nickelodeon. So many top-level people left that year--Cyma (the president), Dan Schneider, Butch Hartman, two other top-level executives whose names escape me, and maybe even more. So clearly, Nick has their priorities right where they should be--worrying about who's running their network now that a lot of top-level people are gone and sorting things out over there. So it's not surprising that Static Cling has been on the back burner. It's clearly not as big of a priority to them. But it will air eventually, even if it airs on Netflix or something (which was rumored for a little bit). Actually, putting things on Netflix could be good for them. While there hasn't been much flare about Pinky Malinky even though that went to Netflix, I'm sure the live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender series will get some good attention. Especially in the day and age where cable has never been lower and the Internet seems to be where the viewers are. TV networks either have to adapt to these changes and go to where the people are, or keep their current tactics, but rope people into watching their cable channel. CN and Disney have both been jumping on the former route, and although Nick has been slow to do so, they've been doing it too. Between selling shows to Netflix and their partnership with VRV, they finally seem to be catching on. I'm a little surprised though (and also thankful) that the Viacom-Netflix lawsuit didn't disrupt Pinky Malinky from airing. So, that's my two-cents. Hopefully Glitch Techs, Static Cling, Pony and Los Casagrandes will air soon and be good. And once all the executive stuff gets sorted out, I have no doubt Nick will be back on the rails again. And hopefully no more Nicktoon dumps! Welcome to the Wayne did not deserve that! That's all I gotta say. -Norbert P.S. Alpha, why have you blocked me on Twitter? I don't ever recall saying anything mean or rude to you. I'm @snorbertd1 on Twitter.
Their creator-driven era has come to a end with the departure of Butch Hartman and TMNT Creators ,the firings of Chris Savino and Dan Schneider,and the death of Stephen Hillenburg(1961-2018). Let’s hope they launch a new era of cartoon creators with new animation talent.
I want to have a television equivalent of the Dreamcast: an ending that burns so bright that it is never forgotten. I hope that some of the last shows on television end up becoming some of the greatest shows in history, with the public memory far outlasting the way they were originally distributed.
I think spongebob should be like the simpsons, as it should be a multi generational show, both me and my sister watched spongebob, and i feel it would be nice to have future generations watch it. my sister is almost 10 years older then me by the way
I freaking hate that they cancelled Glitch Techs. They haven't even given it a chance! Nickelodeon only cares for the sponge, the Louds, the heroes in spandex suits, and the stupid dogs.
Obviously, Spongebob needed to go out a long time ago but the more recent seasons have been good. With the sad loss, I feel like now is the time to officially end it since if it were to keep going, best way to do that is to handle it with respect & honor the series, not just keep it around for the money like what Nick has been doing. A show can continue after the creator's death, Eddsworld is a great example of this, speaking as someone who has followed that web series ever since 2007, the people behind it did such an amazing job after Edd's passing but they weren't in it for the money, they donated the money they got off the series to cancer research. I don't see Spongebob getting much respect going forward but if there are people on staff who do care dearly about the show & its creator, I can see some genuine good things coming from it. I want to see it end but I guess we'll just have to see what happens.
I know Spongebob has been going on for almost 20 years, but it should keep going. The staff is very passionate about the show. Nickelodeon seems to be handling it well and I figure it would for much, much longer.
The only time I watch Nickelodeon is with The Loud House and occasionally Spongebob reruns. Though, I do think the latter show should be canceled since Stephen Hillenburg passed away. It's just that the show entered the Dark Age after the movie when he wasn't involved that much. It's only fitting if they end the sponge soon. They can still make the third film if they wish to and they could dedicate it to Hillenburg as well.
The one big thing that disappoints me about Nickelodeon in 2018 aside from their app just not being that good is. They didn’t name the Ronnie Anne spin off “Casa Casagrande”.
Nickelodeon is doing ok considering all the major changes that have happened in the past year. 'The Loud House is doing quite well with a strong season in terms of quality, even if the ratings are down. In fact my three favorite episodes of the show have aired this season - 'Head Poet's Anxiety' (#1), 'Really Loud Music' (#2) and 'Gown And Out' (#3). I have high hopes for the remainder of the season and season 4 along with the spin-off 'Los Casagrandes'. I do admit that Spongebob has done a lot better in terms of quality in the past season..I think a lot of that comes from having The Loud House around..it means they actually have to try and make quality episodes to keep up instead of just coasting like before. Here's hoping for better things for Nick in the coming year. :)
For me in 2018, I barely saw anything except Spongebob (also partly in honor of Stephen Hillenburg's passing. May he in peace). Still waiting on the Invader Zim and Rocko specials tho
Good: DAN SCHNEIDER FIRED SPONGEBOB IMPROVED BETTER Bad: STEPHEN HILLENBURG DEATH TROTMNT HENRY DANGER CARTOON SITCOMS BAD CARTOONS LIKE Alvin and the Chipmunks BUTCH HARTMAN LEFT NICKELODEON (But he later became a jerk for make Oaxis Entertainment)
It annoys me so much when people pronounce 'los' like 'las'. I get why they do it (English having almost zero pronunciation-spelling connection), but it pisses me off.
Harvey Beaks fans are probably bitter that Loud House got the attention and I would sympathize with because this is a much better written show (I still enjoy TLH, but it's too flawed of a show)
6:03 Welcome to the Wayne has been rumoured to be getting a second season, but so far no more episodes have been confirmed past "So This Is Glamsterdam."
It is interesting to see the state of Nickelodeon animation right now. They don't have much and once Spongebob ends I don't know what the future holds. Personally I find the Loud House to just a good show but not a generational hit As much maligned as Cartoon network is(mainly due to the schedule and it preference for Teen Titans go) it has had a really good crop of original shows over the last few years in my opinion (Steven Universe, Adventure Time Regular Show and Gumball are all huge hits in my opinion). I can't say if their live action shows are good or not since I haven't really watched live action Nick since the first season or two of Icarly. Hopefully the recent management changes at Nick bring about more positive change in the animation department
I enjoyed Rise of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I'm a huge TMNT Fan and this is a new incarnation that has suprised me with it being suprisingly decent yet It doesn't hit the mark of the previous shows.
It seems Nick is slowly going on a decline. Similar to the British Empire in the 1920's and 30's. Still strong in it's own right, but not as strong as it once was. Welcome to the Wayne and the Loud House I loved, Spongebob and Henry Danger have been a can of worms I am afraid to open, and Rise of the TNMT seems to air whenever I have no time and I'm not interested in seeking out and recording episodes. Thankfully, I believe Nick can go back to something similar to it's old self with the proper steps. Should I try to watch Rise of the TMNT?
The maker of The Loud House drew furry porn before he was taken on by Nick. The furry comic was called "The Complex Adventures Of Eddie Puss". Just want to put that out there. And the design of Lincoln is uncannily similar to the main character of the comic, Eddie Puss. Also say his first and last name quickly and you will get what the comic's other fetish was.
2018 was really bad for Nickelodeon. It was sad to because they had just released the Hey Arnold Jungle Movie the year prior, so you would think they would step up after that. Unfortunately, they seemed to keep suffering from losses with Hillenberg’s ALS diagnosis and death, the allegations on Dan Schneider and his subsequent leaving Nickelodeon (about damn time imo), and Butch Hartman exposing himself as an asshole.
I also think ever since they got rid of Winx Club, Nickelodeon has been focusing too much on the Loudhouse and Spongebob. There’s a reason why no one watched the DuArt version of Winx.
Basically, the difference between Nick and CN is that Nick plays it extremely safe in order to get the most profit, while CN takes risks to get people new content. I think CN honestly benefits not having to rely on a show that they just spam- Teen Titans Go was like that before but now it's mellowed out, with far more variety than you'll ever see on Nick.
Cartoon Network seems to be the least popular of the 3 main cartoon channels. Sad, because they seem to be the only one of the 3 that seem to actually care(well, besides 80% of TTG and 99% of PPG2016, but everything else is good).
I dunno, i feel like Spongebob should stay for a little longer now that the episodes are finally getting better again. Maybe it should end after the third movie?
Ah yes, welcome to the wayne... aka "I claim new shows and comic to be the new gravity falls, just because of some very small similarities and cause I'm so desperate for new gravity falls".... serious, why did people compared it to gravity falls on day one? Cause it had mysterious monsters in it? Wubdydoo, a lot of shows have these. The problem is Gravity Falls was not just monsters, ghost and some woods. There was spirit of wonders and comming out of age that made this show, plus a wonderfull balance of seriousness and silly humor.
10:33 ehh you got the casagrandes part right but Los is more like oh not ah. I don’t know why I felt like I needed to correct that so don’t ask me 😝 but I haven’t really been keeping up with Nickelodeon recently I’ve been more into CN this year. Mainly because Craig Of The Creek but other than that I’ve only been really watching Powerpuff Girls, Miraculous Ladybug (which I couldn’t tell if they aired that on Disney Channel or Nick), and MLP. Eh that’s just me. Oh well. 💙💖
I believe it should continue as Vincent said that Hillenburg made it clear he loved what they were doing and I think the shows doing better than it ever did after the first movie
How has Nickelodeon been for you in 2018?
Alpha Jay Show Painful
A rough year in general. Whether it be on content or the employees (even it's for the best for Dan. Butch and Cyma) and especially Hillenburg dying

Yes.
I still pine for what could have been with Harvey Beaks.
Fantastic show aimed at younger kids with modern, nuanced lessons and ‘morals.’
It’s a shame Nickelodeon crapped on it and didn’t give it an honest shot.
Harvey Beaks actually had all 52 half hours air. But the show got moved to Nicktoons after season one, meaning season 2 aired on Nicktoons. It's a shame.
Lol good show but didn’t make enough $$$
i miss harvey beaks it was good animation
Me too and should move back to Nicktoons in 2022 after a 5 year absence for a sequel.
The only saving grace from Nicktoon for this year: Is the new TV film Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus! and Rocko's Modern Life

@@LendriMujina But with Hillenberg gone and some iconic voices from the cast like Ernest Borgnine (Mermaid Man) no longer with us. How much longer should/can the series go on, before it loses anymore familiar people
@@hhj3eu203 Seriously?
I honestly doubt even if for whatever reason the crew wanted to end Spongebob, that Viacom would let them. It is a cash cow. So, it's gonna be dying a slow and painful death. But ignoring the financial side of things? Sure.
Lol Camp Coral says it all. Now it’s gonna be even worse now that Hillenberg’s protection is gone
No.
Nickelodeon is 95% live action and not even the good kind either and the other 5% is cartoons and they are mediocre. (Except for The Loud House and Some SpongeBob.)
TofuGamer 208 It’s pretty disheartening.
Stopped watching Nickelodeon because of absurd amount of live actions... They give me more reasons to stay on internet instead.
TofuGamer 208 TLH is mediocrity at best
Once Henry Danger wraps up I'm terminating my relationship with Nickelodeon indefinitely. Henry Danger is the only live action show worth while and The Loud House will no doubt get the Danny Phantom or Jimmy Neutron treatment, or even worse, the My Life as A Teenage Robot treatment and never be mentioned again after the 4th season.
Well, Nickelodeon used to be a live action channel back in the 70s and 80s before Rugrats involved with the channel to become cartoon channel that we all in love.
The low chefbob ratings was because of a blackout error that happened at the end of the episodes first premire
Oh, so that's what it was
It was my favorite joke of the episode
I remember that.
The only thing i wish Nickelodeon can improve is to stop making live action shows. Don’t get me wrong, I love their live action shows like drake and josh, Zoey 101, icarly, victorious, big time rush, etc. But I just think it’s time for nick to just focus on cartoons and leave the live action shows for good. As for sponge bob, I don’t mind it still going on for a while, but if I had to end it, i think I rather end it after the third movie, and have one final special episode to close the show. But overall, I think spongebob Is doing well.
I don't know. I mean, yeah, a lot of people prefer Nicktoons over their live action shows, but life action shows are and have been a core aspect of Nick from the very beginning. the channel's first show was life action (Pinwheel), its first line up of shows were package shows with life-action segments. Hell, if it wasn't for You Can't Do That On Television, a live action show, Nick might haven't made it through the 80s. Giving up on Live-Action all together and just focusing on its cartoons would be turning its back on a genre that helped it in its first decade of operation.
And as you pointed it out, it's not like Nick haven't had critical success with its live-action content. it just needs to find a way to do it again.
I disagree. Live action has been a staple of the network and I don't think they should completely abandon it. I can't say I watch the current group of live action shows though but I feel if Nickelodeon abandoned live action completely then I think Nick would suffer along with CN in ratings as they both would essentially be trying to compete for the same audience. That being said the competition could give more cartoons a better chance to succeed.
Nickelodeon will be good once all of the Dan Schneider shows are dead.
*_this comment made me realize what that _**_1:01_**_ left on the microwave vine was referencing oh my god_*
It's overusing reused plots and things. It's run its course. And I actually like some of the live action. Cartoon Network is the home of cartoons only. Both networks would be committing creativity suicide if they both did nothing but cartoons. Every idea would be exhausted and we would have to go on a 20-30 year hiatus from animation to give creators time to refuel their wrung out brains.
Last year, PETA, the animal rights activist group, asked Nickelodeon to give the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles "vegan pizza." I honestly would say that it is uncalled for and profoundly dumb, mainly because they should not interfere with fiction and turtles in real life are omnivores. And no, I am not a supporter of them, but even I have standards such as caring about "certain" animals.
Gerald Singer I swear peta is one of the dumbest groups ever and they're completely hypocritical cause they abuse animals worse then some people
Gerald Singer uhhh some animals eat other animals too so... PETA I respect that you wanna fight for animal rights I feel animals deserve their rights too but tackle actual animal abuse not petty stuff like this.
"Animal rights activists" that's a funny way to say monsters. PETA has caused more harm to animals than help
Don’t some turtles eat bugs? They’re not all herbivorous.
@@Nakia11798 Still, despite it being a cartoon, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles eat pepperoni pizza onscreen.
No more Schneider...no more Hartman...no more Hillenburg...no more Zarghami...heck, no more website.
2019 will be a wholly new landscape for Nickelodeon. It'll be interesting to see the directions they take this year.
Inspiration Date so far looking good more Nicktoons are on the way half the sitcoms got cancelled All That is one of the most promoted shows Nick is up to something
FUCK YOU
I will say the God dam n word
Nigga
@@PrussiaCountryHumans1525 that's literally racist. How old are you?
I can't do NickToons anymore. Most of it is descending into the pit where only 8 to 10 year olds will watch it. If I need a cartoon fix I'll actually go to Cartoon Network or Disney. Sure it's hard dodging Teen Titans Go, but it's better than seeing the sadness that is Nickelodeon.
Side note: It would be funny if you started your next video with "Alpha hey from the Alpha Jay".
We got a free trial of Nicktoons a while back. Couldn't watch it because the majority of the shows they show are the terrible ones (i.e. Bunsen and Alvin and the Chipmunks). I did manage to DVR some classic FOP though.
Tmnt 2012 was my childhood. Like how the 1970 version was the childhood of the older generation. Rise of the TMNT is just one of those shows which will always be criticized by older fans but be loved by newer ones. For me it’s difficult to change from the three dimensional animation of the 2012 version.
At the moment, at a large scale, I think all Nickelodeon really needs is to bide its time until its management changes hands. Even in its current state, it has more than enough momentum and power to survive until a change occurs naturally. So the network entering a _slumber_ is preferable to it being a repeat of, say, the Fanboy & Chum Chum/Breadwinners/Sanjay & Craig/Dark Spongebob era. Right now, the channel’s playing it safe. A tactical retreat. In *that* era, though, it was a full-packed minefield that was actively harming its own reputation.
Though speaking of Spongebob, I feel cancelling it _right this moment_ would not only not be respectful to Hilleburg, but it would be a flat-out _insult_ to his legacy. He and his team worked long and hard to bring it back from its abyss. Why make their efforts in vain?
Couldn’t have said it better myself really. Ending the show right now would be disrespectful to what he’s done. I always felt like Stephen had faith in Spongebob. He and his team have brought it back to glory. They’re finally out of a bad period with the show and they shouldn’t end it because Stephen passed.
Baffle Blend Brian Robbins is in charge now
Also, if Cyma’s actions are exposed, she could actually go to jail

@@03bgood what's so bad about it
Doge Coins everything
If your gonna end Spongebob, at all even; at best leave it on a high note. As for how to end it on a high note. be something as close to how when the 1st movie was for Spongebob, only in this case have the finalie be where he finally got his driver license.
pichugirl6 Heck, there’s a lot more character arcs to close than that. I mean, take an episode like “The Original Fry Cook”; there’s so much of what Jim said about how Spongebob’s working at a greasy spoon like the Krusty Krab for a money-grubbing boss like Mr Krabs is preventing him from being a truly great frycook that’s worth looking deeper into. (Yes, I know how confusing that sentence is; I can’t figure out how to untangle it.) Or take EmpLemon’s video about the show and the interplay of Spongebob and Squidward that makes the early seasons so iconic (ua-cam.com/video/cYu7Y52iiYI/v-deo.html ); Squidward has a lot he could potentially learn from Spongebob about finding joy in the life you have.
@@KnakuanaRka I was gonna bring up about how Spongebob could move on to being a better frycook. but given how this show cliche a few times where he quit either by thinking he's a famous movie star in one commerical, thinking of being a model in that one episode that got away of what is spongebob's equivalent of a porn show. Not two mention the 2 infamous bad episodes where Mr. Krabs fire Spongebob to save a nickel even thou Spongebob helps to bring in all the customers, and then the episode where he makes all his friends mad that he leaves Bikini Bottom and loses his memory. If their gonna do make him quit, be tactful, and not for a cheap comedy.
pichugirl6 that’s a perfect idea except.... the first movie is meant to be how the show ends😅
@@gracekim25 believe me. I wish it was how it ended. much like how I wished Channel Chaser for Fairly Odd Parents be the way to end it.
2004:
Working with Nickelodeon is great
2019:
Working with Nickelodeon is a sin
To be honest: Given the rumors of Rugrats getting a return to the network and the other TV films based on 90's Nick shows, I would at the very least give Spongebob a break after its upcoming film. At least allow it to go out quietly and let new shows take over for a while. That way the overall network can continue to grow with new shows and animation series for a new generation. Right ?
M567dk Ideally you’re right but SpongeBob is a special case.
I think spongebob should do a farewell episode and a tribute to the creator. Like sponge bob or mr krabs moves away. And then it point to the sky and it says in loving memory of Stephen. But idk lol
I think SpongeBob should end. It's probably what Stephen Hillenburg would want.
He wants SpongeBob to continue.
Stephen Hillenburg was fine with the show still running.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! 2012-20.. THE BEST!
“I can’t wait for Glitch Tech”
*Goodbye.*
I feel like Spongebob should continue for around a year, and if it’s bad, they can shelve it. The creator of the show leaving doesn’t necessarily mean the show will become bad immediately. MLP:FiM survived for nearly 5-6 years before going into a decline during Season 8 after Lauren Faust left the show during Season 2.
I thought season 8 of MLP was an improvement
Eh. I'm not a huge fan of the "school" setup, and tbh "everycreature" is even more awkward to hear than "everypony". Also I don't really care for the Young 6 as much as the Mane 6, although there's basically nothing more they can do with the Mane 6 at this point.... it's not bad per say, but it lacks the same spark it had in seasons 1-5. Thankfully they're ending it soon, before it can actually get bad.
ehh there are so many proplems with the school like most of the mane six suddenly being teachers when not only do they have day jobs but they also aren't teacher material. The closest is Twilight and she still failed on a few reguards with Starlight.
The student six had so little screen time that it is damaging and they regressed some of the characters (namely AJ and RD) to a desterbing point.
Yes there are good things but over all, not as many as I and many others I spoke to expected. Which made it feel like a down grade.
@@cameoshadowness7757 Yeah, the Mane 6 definitely aren't teacher material. I would've been more on board if it was just Twilight teaching a small group in her normal castle, since she's the only one without a real job and has enjoyed teaching students before (Twilight Time and Top Bolt come to mind, but I'm sure there are others.)
And I can't help but find it a little odd that they're teaching friendship in classrooms now... when in earlier seasons it was emphasized that friendship is something unique that you have to build, not something you can just teach with books and tests... but I digress. I think I've said enough, and I don't want to sound negative.
@@Commenter839
I understand your point of view. Honestly the show isn't making much sense at this point and although there are things that are good, they easily get over taken by the bad. Honeslt the show does feel like it hit season rot at this point.
Wait, kids actually watch Kid Danger?
geardog24 More than Henry Danger, yes.
Kids especially girls love Jace Norman.
Well, only the stupid ones.. and the ones that like it as a guilty pleasure.
Yep. The teenage white girl audience adore Jace Norman for some reason.
geardog24 yeah
Honestly I don't like nick very much. I like some shows but not many. Nick seems to be focusing on the younger and younger people. As I get older I don't like that very much. It was a huge part of my childhood and I wish it the best.
Tilt Assault I have the same viewpoint as you do on Nickelodeon. I enjoyed the channel when I was younger, but now that I’m older I don’t ever seem to want to tune in.
Which is strange, considering they made things like Hey! Arnold and Avatar: The Last Airbender-two shows that are loved to this day!
I see what you mean. But I think that the biggest reason people hate Nick now. It's targeting too much at kids and their shows are just for kids.
When The Loud House first came out, I stopped watching Fairly Oddparents. Now every time I try to watch it again, I find it very annoying because The Loud House is very relaxing
Woah... I didn't realise Hillenburg, Hartman, AND "Feet are neat" Synder were gone. I mean those guys basically took over after the raunchy John K. era. I think if they hire more up and comers they might stand a chance but it looks bkeak for the Splat channel. Soon all they'll be doing is dragging in more wrestlers for a monthly Kids Choice Awards
Schneider not Snyder.
Nickelodeon,CN and Disney/Disney xD should hire youtubers (or on social media) who want to make animated shows and know what they're doing (like in the case with Final Space) or hold annual contests where the top 3 winners will be granted a show or a pilot.
TRS That’d be awesome.
Now that really sounds like it could work!
They already did that in 2012.
The shitshow Breadwinners actually came from UA-cam creators and same with The Annoying Orange. Keep the UA-cam creator fellow kids shitstorm off my Nickelodeon please.
Obviously not these shows. But I'm sure there are some decent ideas by passionate creators that love to have their own show.
Loved that stab you did at The Things when talking about The Loud House.
Animated Antic 😏
Alpha Jay Show THANK!!!!!! YOU!!!!!! FOR THAT!!!!!!!!
Also Calobi Productions.
Nickelodeon is in a tough spot going into 2019, and how they make things work this year will be important, as they continue to shift into a new set of properties (both animated and live-action). I do have to disagree about the doom-and-gloom comments on the state of television though. Yes, ratings are shrinking, but that's across the board. I don't see television going anytime soon (or even medium-term) because there are quite a few detriments to streaming services that have reared (or will rear) their heads as time has gone on.
TV isn't dying,it's changing. It's cable that's on life support due to big cable companies keep trying to bleed their consumers dry.
I agree i feel cable tv will die but broadcast tv will live since its free and easily accessible and doesnt suffer as many ratings clutches as cable tv
@@maximillianlylat1589 That and there are more channels thanks to HD digital antennas.

I find it dumb that people are complaining about April's skin color, especially considering that she was black in the comics.
Ngl the new April looks better than the other one from the 2012 series.
SpongeBob honestly needs to end. Maybe it got better, but there's still just nothing to do with it anymore. Nickelodeon should move on to new things.
That would be a horrible business decision on nick’s end
Nicktoons hasn't been as praised or relevant as a brand in the last ten years. But with some new shows under this new management and actually giving them more a chance being their own hits (and not another SpongeBob), Nick will have a much better and stronger arsenal of Nicktoons.
I want a whole separate 90s nick channel. I would watch that 24/7. I love Nick Splat and I think it would be a good idea if they had a separate channel for it. There's "MTV Classic" now with all music videos all the time, as god intended lmao, and they play 80s and 90s stuff a lot! Iconic

ghazt master Here’s hoping 2019 gives more than one episode.
Its sad that TV is dying. TV has always been a part of my life but its clearly going the way of the dodo.
As for Nick. I think they need to revamp their whole interface and business. Focus on the app build around that with access to all kinds of new and old content.
It was ehhh for the most part. I thought Loud House third season was its best imo and I thought SpongeBob was still doing great but overall the shows were blah. Don't care for Kid Dangers and it's sad that they're not giving Welcome to the Wayne more of a chance and it's best Miraculous is on Netflix (still a great show)
William Clarke Maybe Welcome To The Wayne can do better on Netflix
Here's my two cents on Nickelodeon's 2018 state:
Many people are upset that Nickelodeon is focusing more on live-action than animation, but if you ask me, I'd say it's good business sense for them. Why spend tons of money & months of time making animated shows that the 2-11 year olds aren't watching when you could just show them cheaper sitcoms that they ARE interested in? It seems that a lot of Nickelodeon creators are really trying to copy of Dan Schneider and make sitcoms like his. Plus, Dan's friend, Brian Robbins, is now Nick's president, so that especially affirms those opinions.
They haven't completely abandoned animation though. They've still got some animated projects in the works--Glitch Techs, Los Casagrandes, Pony, Enter the Florpus, Static Cling. Of course, some of those are taking awhile to air. Static Cling has been finished for a year now, and even Joe Murray doesn't know when it's airing, and on his website, he told me in a comment that he's even very frustrated about Static Cling not airing yet, though he doesn't believe Nick will scuttle it. Pinky Malinky recently aired on Netflix, and it was delayed for over 2 years. Chris Garbutt, the creator, told me on Twitter that the reason being was due to Nickelodeon changing their programming strategy, and the Netflix deal having to go through. And they weren't the only ones to suffer from the former. That could also explain why Glitch Techs and Static Cling still haven't aired yet. The former actually halted production yesterday and seems to be in limbo until season 1 airs. Plus, 2018 was a huge transitional year for Nickelodeon. So many top-level people left that year--Cyma (the president), Dan Schneider, Butch Hartman, two other top-level executives whose names escape me, and maybe even more.
So clearly, Nick has their priorities right where they should be--worrying about who's running their network now that a lot of top-level people are gone and sorting things out over there. So it's not surprising that Static Cling has been on the back burner. It's clearly not as big of a priority to them. But it will air eventually, even if it airs on Netflix or something (which was rumored for a little bit).
Actually, putting things on Netflix could be good for them. While there hasn't been much flare about Pinky Malinky even though that went to Netflix, I'm sure the live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender series will get some good attention. Especially in the day and age where cable has never been lower and the Internet seems to be where the viewers are. TV networks either have to adapt to these changes and go to where the people are, or keep their current tactics, but rope people into watching their cable channel. CN and Disney have both been jumping on the former route, and although Nick has been slow to do so, they've been doing it too. Between selling shows to Netflix and their partnership with VRV, they finally seem to be catching on. I'm a little surprised though (and also thankful) that the Viacom-Netflix lawsuit didn't disrupt Pinky Malinky from airing.
So, that's my two-cents. Hopefully Glitch Techs, Static Cling, Pony and Los Casagrandes will air soon and be good. And once all the executive stuff gets sorted out, I have no doubt Nick will be back on the rails again. And hopefully no more Nicktoon dumps! Welcome to the Wayne did not deserve that!
That's all I gotta say.

P.S. Alpha, why have you blocked me on Twitter? I don't ever recall saying anything mean or rude to you. I'm @snorbertd1 on Twitter.
Brians is a convicted sex offender, why is he still working at Viacom?
Dave102693 No he’s not.
Their creator-driven era has come to a end with the departure of Butch Hartman and TMNT Creators ,the firings of Chris Savino and Dan Schneider,and the death of Stephen Hillenburg(1961-2018). Let’s hope they launch a new era of cartoon creators with new animation talent.
I want to have a television equivalent of the Dreamcast: an ending that burns so bright that it is never forgotten. I hope that some of the last shows on television end up becoming some of the greatest shows in history, with the public memory far outlasting the way they were originally distributed.
I think spongebob should be like the simpsons, as it should be a multi generational show, both me and my sister watched spongebob, and i feel it would be nice to have future generations watch it. my sister is almost 10 years older then me by the way
rubber duck Productions I’m in a similar boat. My younger brother watches SB as well.
In my experience anyone who still watches Nicks cartoons are in their exact target demo of 8-10
Adventures of Kid Danger only lasted 12 episoded.
*12. EPISODES.*
It's gotten to the point where any new cartoon just looks like a worse reiteration of a previously successful cartoon
I freaking hate that they cancelled Glitch Techs. They haven't even given it a chance! Nickelodeon only cares for the sponge, the Louds, the heroes in spandex suits, and the stupid dogs.
Obviously, Spongebob needed to go out a long time ago but the more recent seasons have been good. With the sad loss, I feel like now is the time to officially end it since if it were to keep going, best way to do that is to handle it with respect & honor the series, not just keep it around for the money like what Nick has been doing. A show can continue after the creator's death, Eddsworld is a great example of this, speaking as someone who has followed that web series ever since 2007, the people behind it did such an amazing job after Edd's passing but they weren't in it for the money, they donated the money they got off the series to cancer research. I don't see Spongebob getting much respect going forward but if there are people on staff who do care dearly about the show & its creator, I can see some genuine good things coming from it. I want to see it end but I guess we'll just have to see what happens.
I know Spongebob has been going on for almost 20 years, but it should keep going. The staff is very passionate about the show. Nickelodeon seems to be handling it well and I figure it would for much, much longer.
The only time I watch Nickelodeon is with The Loud House and occasionally Spongebob reruns. Though, I do think the latter show should be canceled since Stephen Hillenburg passed away. It's just that the show entered the Dark Age after the movie when he wasn't involved that much. It's only fitting if they end the sponge soon. They can still make the third film if they wish to and they could dedicate it to Hillenburg as well.
Michael Strong That’s a solid plan!
The one big thing that disappoints me about Nickelodeon in 2018 aside from their app just not being that good is. They didn’t name the Ronnie Anne spin off “Casa Casagrande”.
Nickelodeon is doing ok considering all the major changes that have happened in the past year. 'The Loud House is doing quite well with a strong season in terms of quality, even if the ratings are down. In fact my three favorite episodes of the show have aired this season - 'Head Poet's Anxiety' (#1), 'Really Loud Music' (#2) and 'Gown And Out' (#3). I have high hopes for the remainder of the season and season 4 along with the spin-off 'Los Casagrandes'. I do admit that Spongebob has done a lot better in terms of quality in the past season..I think a lot of that comes from having The Loud House around..it means they actually have to try and make quality episodes to keep up instead of just coasting like before. Here's hoping for better things for Nick in the coming year. :)
The Nickelodeon tv app is horrible, so many shows are missing episodes or don’t have any but the show is still showed.
For me in 2018, I barely saw anything except Spongebob (also partly in honor of Stephen Hillenburg's passing. May he in peace). Still waiting on the Invader Zim and Rocko specials tho
With the current quality of Spongebob I would never pay an extra fee to a service to watch the mess its become.

BAD CARTOONS LIKE Alvin and the Chipmunks

It annoys me so much when people pronounce 'los' like 'las'. I get why they do it (English having almost zero pronunciation-spelling connection), but it pisses me off.
Nickelodeon needs to make more good animated cartoons. Also, they should bring Harvey Beaks back.
Only 2 cartoons actually air on nick nowadays
Luke A as in the schedule is usually dominated with spongebob and loud house
Tito Akinsade For the most part.
Harvey Beaks fans are probably bitter that Loud House got the attention and I would sympathize with because this is a much better written show (I still enjoy TLH, but it's too flawed of a show)
Tito Akinsade the only cartoons are Spongebob and The Loud House.
A part of me thinks we should get a loud buttowski crossover
6:03 Welcome to the Wayne has been rumoured to be getting a second season, but so far no more episodes have been confirmed past "So This Is Glamsterdam."
It is interesting to see the state of Nickelodeon animation right now. They don't have much and once Spongebob ends I don't know what the future holds. Personally I find the Loud House to just a good show but not a generational hit As much maligned as Cartoon network is(mainly due to the schedule and it preference for Teen Titans go) it has had a really good crop of original shows over the last few years in my opinion (Steven Universe, Adventure Time Regular Show and Gumball are all huge hits in my opinion). I can't say if their live action shows are good or not since I haven't really watched live action Nick since the first season or two of Icarly. Hopefully the recent management changes at Nick bring about more positive change in the animation department
It’s a bit unfortunate that Welcome to the Wayne season 2 hasn’t aired in the US
I believe Spongebob gets 2 more seasons before it truly dies, though it hasn’t been the same for a long time.
because Viacom LOVES mone-
*ad plays*
I enjoyed Rise of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I'm a huge TMNT Fan and this is a new incarnation that has suprised me with it being suprisingly decent yet It doesn't hit the mark of the previous shows.
It seems Nick is slowly going on a decline. Similar to the British Empire in the 1920's and 30's. Still strong in it's own right, but not as strong as it once was.
Welcome to the Wayne and the Loud House I loved, Spongebob and Henry Danger have been a can of worms I am afraid to open, and Rise of the TNMT seems to air whenever I have no time and I'm not interested in seeking out and recording episodes.
Thankfully, I believe Nick can go back to something similar to it's old self with the proper steps.
Should I try to watch Rise of the TMNT?
Noah Johnson Yes. Made a video on it if you’re still unsure.
@@TheAlphaJayShow k ^^
Give ROTTMNT a chance, You may never know how good the show will be
Due to Bill's passing, I wouldn't watch anything new. Just the first 3-4 seasons
The maker of The Loud House drew furry porn before he was taken on by Nick. The furry comic was called "The Complex Adventures Of Eddie Puss". Just want to put that out there. And the design of Lincoln is uncannily similar to the main character of the comic, Eddie Puss. Also say his first and last name quickly and you will get what the comic's other fetish was.
I'm on the side of Ending Spongebob within the next 2-3 years.
It certainly was an interesting year of animation.
Wes Papes Quite.
They definitely need to add more cartoons in the new year.
Kira Kardashian Agreed.
Kinda wish spongebob gets a final finale
Haha a Henry ranger commercial while you were talking to it
There is 8 Nicktoons for 2019-2021 premiere season so theyre coming back
We left this in 2018. I have more hopes for CN than Nick having much better qualities than 2018. C'mon 2019 please🙏
I remember watching El Tigre, MLAATR, Danny Phantom, and Invader Zim on the channel in summer 2016.
8:00- Those do NOT look like chipmunks! Sorry, but those are human boys!
And to know that a decade ago they literally had their channel bug saying “nick.com” is crazy to me.
RIP Nick.com

"...gave him the pink slipper- I mean slip"
You know what you did
2018 was really bad for Nickelodeon. It was sad to because they had just released the Hey Arnold Jungle Movie the year prior, so you would think they would step up after that. Unfortunately, they seemed to keep suffering from losses with Hillenberg’s ALS diagnosis and death, the allegations on Dan Schneider and his subsequent leaving Nickelodeon (about damn time imo), and Butch Hartman exposing himself as an asshole.
I also think ever since they got rid of Winx Club, Nickelodeon has been focusing too much on the Loudhouse and Spongebob. There’s a reason why no one watched the DuArt version of Winx.
Basically, the difference between Nick and CN is that Nick plays it extremely safe in order to get the most profit, while CN takes risks to get people new content. I think CN honestly benefits not having to rely on a show that they just spam- Teen Titans Go was like that before but now it's mellowed out, with far more variety than you'll ever see on Nick.
As you said "we all know Viacom loves money" I got an ad
I think that if the Spongebob finale turned out really strong, ending isn't necessarily a bad idea. I don't want it to return to season 6-8 quality.
Cartoon Network seems to be the least popular of the 3 main cartoon channels. Sad, because they seem to be the only one of the 3 that seem to actually care(well, besides 80% of TTG and 99% of PPG2016, but everything else is good).
I dunno, i feel like Spongebob should stay for a little longer now that the episodes are finally getting better again. Maybe it should end after the third movie?
Ah yes, welcome to the wayne... aka "I claim new shows and comic to be the new gravity falls, just because of some very small similarities and cause I'm so desperate for new gravity falls"....
serious, why did people compared it to gravity falls on day one? Cause it had mysterious monsters in it? Wubdydoo, a lot of shows have these. The problem is Gravity Falls was not just monsters, ghost and some woods. There was spirit of wonders and comming out of age that made this show, plus a wonderfull balance of seriousness and silly humor.
I feel sponge bob should end since I think it’s time for it to end but they should still re run it forever and maybe a movie every so often
10:33 ehh you got the casagrandes part right but Los is more like oh not ah. I don’t know why I felt like I needed to correct that so don’t ask me 😝 but I haven’t really been keeping up with Nickelodeon recently I’ve been more into CN this year. Mainly because Craig Of The Creek but other than that I’ve only been really watching Powerpuff Girls, Miraculous Ladybug (which I couldn’t tell if they aired that on Disney Channel or Nick), and MLP. Eh that’s just me. Oh well. 💙💖
I believe it should continue as Vincent said that Hillenburg made it clear he loved what they were doing and I think the shows doing better than it ever did after the first movie
