Re: Your opinions on Nickelodeon

Actually, SpongeBob is very likely to stay alive for quite a few more years due to many parents thinking the show is "family friendly",

The episode "Krusty Dogs" features numerous scenes in which customers ask for "wieners", and at one point SpongeBob declares that he wants to make the "wiener" idea "blow up in [Mr. Krabs'] face."

so parents encourage their kids to watch it. Problem is, they rerun the newer episodes more than the older ones, and little kids don't understand the hilarious gems in Seasons 1-3, the movie, and the bit of 4;

Ex: "Patrick, your genius is showing!" "(covers crotch) WHERE?!"

so the little kids think all episodes are great.

WHAT? It's like the only good show on there.

I hate them making shows (most terrible), making 10 episodes, and than forgetting them and making new series.

Cartoon Network > Disney Channel > Teennick > Nick

Ren and Stimpy is a love it or hate it show. It shouldn't really surprise you.

That's nothing. In one new Spongebob, there's a cake Spongebob gives to Patrick saying "Sorry about the scabies". It's completely visible on-screen and Spongebob reads it out loud.
 
Re: Your opinions on Nickelodeon

^ That's not really that inappropriate. It's not like scabies is an STD or anything of the sort. And that's not even a new episode, that's from a year or two ago.

1. I've been told otherwise in Health class.
2. I meant to say "post-movie".

Source?

I doubt any sane parent would find Spongebob family friendly, considering it has public nudity, violent scenarios that could kill someone (human or animal) in real life, discrimination, people acting like jerks and idiots.
 
Re: Your opinions on Nickelodeon

He may be using "family friendly" in a different way; jokes that go above little Billy's head are going to keep Mom or the babysitter from getting too bored.

Re: Your opinions on Nickelodeon

Man, I was eating dinner today and turned on Nickelodeon, only to see they were airing Fred 3. I watched a little bit to see how horrid it was, and man, was it indeed horrid. I witnessed immature toilet humor, a subtle sexual reference, a cliched slow-motion scene of a pretty girl, and a gross lunch sequence that I shouldn't mention.

Note to all of you: If you see Fred 3 airing on Nick, turn that channel in a split second.
