Hey there folks! Glad to see other people raising awareness for Nick at Nite's 40th anniversary. Just another rabid fan here of the classic Nick at Nite line-up and marketing. I recently wrote a piece reminiscing on some things that made Nick at Nite so special. It is brief. I hope you enjoy it, thank you.

Nice article. I too loved Nick at Night. The promos were hysterical especially the one interviewing the back of Patty Duke's head.

I think the first over the air channel to runs old shows was Retro TV aka RTV.

Too bad there is no recognition of the anniversary. So it goes.

If you write other relevant article fit for these forums please post links for them.

Yes, it used to be a great channel. The last anniversary celebration I remember was the 20th in 2005.

Unfortunately it's now on auto-pilot, and any signs of its glory days are long gone.

Thank you for the kinds words! I sure wish there was some ground swell support for celebrating July 1st as Nick at Nite day too. We'll do our part in our own small way. Speaking of which, here are a fantastic collection of Nick at Nite commercials thanks to the excellent work of Vinnie Rattolle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pl8FNQxC3N8

"The STONES!"

Gets me every time...

I honestly don't write very often, only when I'm greatly moved by something and yes, the 40th anniversary of Nick at Nite was something that roused me to action.

As silly as it may sound, some of the fondest memories I have up until 2000 involved Nick at Nite playing on the tube.

Yeah, I think the last time I remember watching it was Thanksgiving 2006 for a Beverly Hillbillies marathon But it could have been TV Land too, I can't recall.

Opinions may differ, but for me 1985-2000 was the height of Nick at Nite greatness. It started to jump the shark with the advent of TV Land. Didn't have the same dynamic for me.

Merry24 · 06-28-2025, 08:20 PM

Tenter, Thank you for posting former Schedule anniversaries atleast we can look back and celebrate that way.

Sloopymagoo, Glad you posted some of the old promos.

It would be nice if Pluto TV can add a real Classic NICKELODEON/NICK at NITE Channel airing its old promos as well.

I think why folks really enjoyed NICK at NITE was because during the day it was one channel and by NITE it was an entire different Channel. Another reason was because it was airing those shows at NITE that was relaxing and funny and silly. Yes alot of today channels airs what NICK at NITE aired but they air them during the Mornings. Even TVLand aired those NICK at NITE shows in the Mornings instead of 8pm-ALL NITE and EveryNITE.

So here’s to Pluto hopefully soon airing old NICKELODEON/NICK at NITE Channel.

NICKELODEON Day
Mr.Wizards World
Muppet Babies
Double Dare/Marc Summers
You Can’t Do That On Television
Lassie
Dennis the Menace
Finders Keepers

NICK
at
NITE

Dennis the Menace
My Three Sons
Donna Reed
Patty Duke
Many Loves Of Dobbie Gillis
The Danny Thomas Show
Car 54, Where Are You?
Mister Ed
Laugh-In
The Monkees
More!

Old Promos and stunts airing a different show every half hour.Airing Holiday Stunts in addition to Classic TV Countdown and Summer Block Parties.

HAPPY 40th Birthday NICK at NITE!

PS I agree 85-98 & 85-99 were the best years!

Pluto already runs some of the shows you mentioned. Yet they are not set as a dedicated Nick at Night channel.

Merry24 · 06-28-2025, 09:34 PM

True but like Dick Van Dyke was a 24/7 channel than moved to Classic TV Families Channel now moved to the Classic TV Comedy Channel on Pluto TV.

Danny Thomas & Donna Reed & Patty Duke they only air their Christmas episode during the Holiday season and they air Dennis the Menace sparatically but not at NITE.Where they could air the series NITELY.

tenter · 06-29-2025, 08:48 AM

Thanks, I thought it would be nice to post former schedules, even though the channel block won't do recognition, given its on autopilot. But it's ok to post some feedback and comments for 40th anniversary. Of course the other shows are on pluto, RewindTV, AntennaTV, tubitv, etc... streaming and/or digital channels.

Nickelodeon needed to find something to air during their late night/early morning hours, when the little ones were in bed. They decided on reruns. But not just any reruns, cool, nostalgic retro reruns of show from the 50s and 60s! It's Nick at Nite, a Baby Boomer's paradise!
