It kind of seems like it would be on Nickelodeon so that more people would be able to watch.
I can't wait. I heard and read that there will be Nick Or Treat and Toy Runs shown on the block. Now I don't know but I would think it would be new stuff and not old re-runs of it but maybe not. Can't wait to see it. Also to know that the old bumpers and stuff won't be like re-mixed but how they were back when they first aired. That's one of the things I always enjoyed about Nick back in the day. The old bumpers and stuff.I knew this would happen. Okay, turns out Splat isn't its own channel, it's just a late night programming block on Teen Nick that starts 2 hours earlier and ends 2 hours later. So all they're giving is 2 more hours, hopefully not all Time Shift Programming. Because The 90's block they have now is 2 hours repeated.
Kinda disappointing, but I guess those crappy tweencoms are much more important to the ratings. What am I saying? It's NICK. If it's not Spongebob, Nick Jr or Tweencoms, it's never important.
I'd rather Nick show their other shows on a regular basis instead. I'm glad the new Chipmunks series is a success. That way they actually want to run a new cartoon series besides the Sponge. They don't even have a single daily slot for TMNT and that thing's a merchandising goldmine. Sure, it's run a LOT on Nicktoon, but only once a week and only then if its a new episode.It kind of seems like it would be on Nickelodeon so that more people would be able to watch.
Ahem. . . .Surprised no one mentioned this.
I should have said, "I'm surprised nobody mentioned this in this particular thread," I guess.
Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain Tiny Toons, and Alvin and the Chipmunks were not on Nick originally Animaniacs and Tiny Toons used to be on Fox in the early 90's along with another great show Batman The Animated series I used to watch after school. the Alvin and the Chipmunks I am not sure what network had them but it wasn't Nick and it was in the 80's before my family had cable we had an old fashioned Quasar TV with rabbit ears .....Ah...classic Nick. I remember such shows as...

Rugrats
Angry Beavers
The Amanda Show
Wild Thornberrys

Other than that, Nick today isn't all that good.
Animaniacs and Tiny Toons were two of the handful of cartoons shown in syndication on Nick. Others included Muppet Babies, Inspector Gadget, Yogi Bear, Looney Tunes, Gumby, and even the Peanuts specials.Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain Tiny Toons, and Alvin and the Chipmunks were not on Nick originally Animaniacs and Tiny Toons used to be on Fox in the early 90's along with another great show Batman The Animated series I used to watch after school. the Alvin and the Chipmunks I am not sure what network had them but it wasn't Nick and it was in the 80's before my family had cable we had an old fashioned Quasar TV with rabbit ears .....
I used to love Salute Your Shorts, Clarissa Explains It All and Hey Dude and on Disney I watched the Mickey Mouse Club, the new one they had in the late 80's and early 90's !!!!!!!!
I'd say that Nickelodeon aired more than just a handful of reruns of existing animated shows. There was also The Alvin Show, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Danger Mouse, Garfield and Friends, Bullwinkle, Under Dog, and there was a cartoon package called Cartoon Kablooey, which I believe showed old UPA cartoons (the same cartoons were also featured in the first season of Weinerville).Animaniacs and Tiny Toons were two of the handful of cartoons shown in syndication on Nick.

Not to mention some foreign imports, like David the Gnome, which was notable for ending on kind of a downer.I'd say that Nickelodeon aired more than just a handful of reruns of existing animated shows.
