The target demo of live action programming doesn't watch linear television anymore. Simple as that really.

I'm still not a fan of the font, but this is the best its been since 2009.

Frankly I think Cartoon Network is irrelevant anymore. Kids don't really watch cable, the people who'd be tuning in for Checkered Past and Superman are young adults and 30-somethings.

Well that's that. Probably the last time most of these shows will air on TV in the US. Feels kinda like a goodbye.

A half hour of Dexter is scheduled for October 1st... but cripes their first major success in original animation and it got 3 half hours total for this event.

Do we know if Dexter is going to air again?

I'm like 99% sure this was an HD transfer of EEnE from the original film. It looks incredible

They not only cut the intro but they cropped it for widescreen...

Good. Everything after Ego Trip was awful.

I've been noticing that Legends of the Hidden Temple has been airing on the "No Parents Allowed" PlutoTV channel.

I meant, iirc, they both have aired fairly recently in reruns so they wouldn't be special first time in a decade+ airings.

I honestly think they only really need to give airtime to the following older shows: Dexter's Lab Johnny Bravo Power Puff Girls Cow & Chicken (maybe) Edd, Edd, n Eddy Courage Billy & Mandy KND Foster's Camp Lazlo Chowder Flapjack Others like Regular Show and Adventure Time are more current and...

Lets hope they dig further back than 2018. CN wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for their HB and WB library and their initial slate of Cartoon Cartoons.

As I expected the second airing is now gone. I suspect that it was an error and meant to be the reboot scheduled for those times.

The 3/22 airing has been removed.

Philo is only showing the two showings on the 22nd and 23rd for me, so its unclear whether this is a one off thing (for maybe the start of spring for some reason) or is a regular part of the schedule now.

I only watched Arthur a little bit back in the late 90s/early 00s. I had cable growing up so I was a Nick kid first, CN kid second.

Nick is Nick. That includes P+, PlutoTV, Nicktoons, and TeenNick. Now I do see TeenNick being shut down, and if it does it'll be sooner rather than later. I don't pretend to know the economics of PlutoTV but with how they've curtailed classic programming there too I don't really care.

There isn't a lot you can do with linear cable in its current state that doesn't cost more than it returns honestly.

TAS was created as a season 4 (and5) of TOS, it used many unused TOS scripts, was run by Rodenberry himself, and wasn't anymore explicitly for kids than TOS was.

And/Or add their own programming to Nick@Nite.

Frankly nostalgia is like a wave. It rises, crests, breaks, and subsides. Nick probably saw the block losing viewship as it went on and at a certain point it became more expensive to do more than basic maintenance on the block, especially with linear cable dying as it is. Likewise Nick...

Lamenting the loss of a block that should have died or been retooled years ago. This is an example of the block at its best, a real honest to god attempt to recapture the feeling of watching Nickelodeon at the turn of the century.

Looks like the weekend marathons are over. Just iCarly now.

I imagine everything is in flux. If P+ really takes off and becomes self-sustaining and the trend of linear cable losing subscribers continues I could see Viacom consolidating their channel space and start doing more P+ First or P+ Same Day premiers of shows.

Honestly it's always been weird to see slime with the rebrand. Since the rebrand is so sterile the slime feels out of time and place next to it.

Except for NickJr I think its the longest running block of programming that Nickelodeon ever did. I haven't really watched since they stopped putting effort into the packaging of the block. There wasn't really a point when they didn't try to make it feel like Golden Age Nickelodeon with...

I stopped watching the network around the time City ended, so City.

How about a de-brand back to the classic Splat, add 90s and early 00s Nickcoms to Nick@Nite, and restore Nicktoons to being a network for all Nicktoons.

Scheduling a really nice Christmas lineup on NickRewind only to pull it at last minute to replace it with iCarly and essentially kill the block.

There is no point, cable is the walking dead.

Seems pretty clear that Nick wants the target demo of NickRewind, ~25-35 year olds, to subscribe to Paramount+ to get their nostalgic Nick fix. Especially when they have on screen elements like the below during these marathons.

Block lasted for 10 years, that's pretty long for post-rebrand Nick.

They probably won't have any special branding or bumpers again this year. The 2015 Christmas bumpers on The Splat were outstanding and recaptured the feeling of watching Nick back at the turn of the century.

Figured I'd bump this since it is the season now. Can't edit OP anymore, but here is a new link for the Nick Nog Holiday Bash.

None of the shows aired so far premiered after the logo change.

Bring back Nick or Treat.

Considering the 7th is the 25th anniversary of Hey Arnold it makes more sense.

I just don't get what WB is doing. Boomerang and now HBO Max do not have their entire library of CN cartoons. No Johnny Bravo, no Cow & Chicken, etc, and what they do have is incomplete. No Ego Trip, no Big Picture Show, no PPG Movie, etc.

I imagine they'll start regular airings on Nickelodeon once season 2 premiers.
