Nick at Nite summer schedule updates and discussion - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It's time to make a new thread for Nick at Nite updates/schedule changes for summer season.

This week starting Monday to Friday has had Friends Getaway themed episodes 11PM-12:12AM as this promo was occasionally airing reusing it from last Aug 2014.

And... starting tomorrow (Fri May 29)/early May 30, Nick at Nite is finally bringing Friends takes back 12:12AM and 12:48AM. So that means Friends finally has 4 airings instead of 2. Also, Fresh Prince moves the slot 1:24AM and 2AM. That means Everybody Loves Raymond is permanently off the lineup on Nick at Nite. Everybody Loves Raymond has been on Nick at Nite started in January and lasted until late May, almost 5 months. Apparently due to low ratings and bad acquisition to start with, but at least they have aired almost all episodes. ELR can still be seen on TBS and TVLand.

Every Saturdays and Sundays starting Sat May 30 & Sun May 31,
-Full House takes the 10PM hour back, which forces Fresh Prince off the primetime lineup, but after Friends 4 airings 11PM-1:24AM, Fresh Prince then gets 4 airings 1:24AM-3:48AM. Unfortunately How I Met Your Mother encores no longer seeing on weekends, but only weekdays. HIMYM is getting reduced.

To sum up, ELR is off the lineup. HIMYM gets reduced airings per week, for airing weekdays only.

The problem is that with ratings were down, when only new acquisition shows added to schedule scored so low. Since Nick at Nite has 30th anniversary on July 1, it's quite unclear what shows would air, but I can guess Nick at Nite has no interest airing the specials or doing marathons because it's no longer a popular network.

Another thing is with only 4-5 shows running on a Nick at Nite block, the future is unclear what new acquisitions would be since there hasn't been one....

Younger airing every Tuesdays 10PM new episode; last episode of season is June 9.

Instant Mom would be on hiatus again after June 3 on TVLand for the summer, which means there are 7 more episodes to finish season 2. See Dad Run is way overdue and hasn't been airing new episodes since last December. See Dad Run has 7 more episodes left to air!

The new development series The Chaos Chronicles is being developed to a Nick at Nite series. The article was posted last month. Another series is Divorced Family. Nickelodeon didn't give much information for those two new series.

Well, you do a hell of a job. Obviously, Nick at Nite doesnt give a damn about there history because there seems to be no anniversary speical or anything.

Its tough to be a show on Nick at Nite because the new shows they acquire dont seems to work. ELR and HIMYM didnt do good. So then you have to ask whats next?

It's saddening that Nick at Nite has no future, even the new acquisitions or return of the sitcoms never do well in ratings anymore.

List of sitcoms that never did well in reruns started from fall 2011
Example:
-Brady Bunch return in 2012 placed in 5AM hour
-Wendell and Vinnie former Nick at Nite series
-See Dad Run former Nick at Nite series (7 unaired)
-Instant Mom current Nick at Nite (currently airing TVLand new episodes until Jun 3)
-My Wife and Kids return in Jan 2014
-That 70s Show return in March 2014
-Hangin with Mr. Cooper from Jan 2014-Sept 2014
-How I Met Your Mother
-Everybody Loves Raymond
-Old Adventures of Christine
-All That/Kenan and Kel - lasted three weeks in primetime in late Jun 2012-mid Jul 2012
-Hollywood Heights (one hour former Nick at Nite drama)
-So Little Time one-time only placed at 6AM hour for repeats
-Family Matters return in fall 2012, although ratings did ok..
-Home Improvement return on and off between 2010-2012, ratings did bad

Overall these former acquistions as you said doesn't do well. Fresh Prince ratings did ok, but not Full House level though.

I wouldn't be surprised if Full House takes that 10PM hour back on weekdays but they haven't yet, just weekends.

mets82 · 06-01-2015, 05:39 PM

But you have to have more than Full House on your channel. I was thinking about this over the weekend about what shows you can put on to help Nick at Nite. From your stats, it doesnt seem like any of them would fly. Let me ask would any of these shows work?

Home Improvement
Step by Step
Family Matters
Growing Pains
8 Simple Rules
My Wife and Kids
Seinfeld

Well I would've use THIS in another thread for predictions of Nick at Nite future:

I think Family Matters would return to Nick at Nite in future since it did very well in ratings throughout the past several years ago. Step by Step is a good possibility to come to Nick at Nite in future like 2016. Rest of the shows are not a good fit for Nick at Nite.

But then again I think maybe it's time Nick at Nite to wipe out all shows, and go back to Nickelodeon 24/7 since Nick at Nite first existed in 1985.

mets82 · 06-03-2015, 04:42 PM

There needs to be a complete overhaul ASAP. I would start fresh. I'd actually get rid of all the show they have now. I mean a show like Friends and even Full House are expendable.

Tubehead · 06-03-2015, 07:03 PM

I always wanted nick at nite to show :
step by step
mammas family
boy meets world
saved by the bell
8 simple rules

tenter · 06-09-2015, 11:30 AM

Tues Jun 16 8PM: Nick News special: The Electronic Leash: Safety vs Privacy

Sun Jun 21 8PM-11PM Full House will have Father's Day stunt themed episodes

mets82 · 06-12-2015, 05:42 PM

Whats the Nick News special going to be about?

There's some more info about Nick News for Safety vs Privacy. I attached the link though. It's only about 23 min Nick News without the commercials. I think the logo would be nick at nite in really really small font, just like how AwesomenessTV first started back in 2013 when aired at 8PM on a Monday.

tenter · 06-18-2015, 09:45 AM

Most people would be very happy to find out that starting Mon Jun 29/Tues Jun 30, How I Met Your Mother would finally be off Nick at Nite lineup. It will then move to TVLand at that day based on the blog.

Everybody Loves Raymond is returning to Nick at Nite after few weeks off the air and to take How I Met Your Mother's slot 2:36AM and 3:12AM starting Mon Jun 29/Tues Jun 30.

Since Nickelodeon tomorrow Jun 19 will premiere original movie One Crazy Cruise at 8PM until 9:30PM, it will overlap Nick at Nite airtimes, only leaves with one Full House at 9:30PM slot

As for Nick at Nite 30th anniversary, unfortunately no news has been made.

I think moving to TVLand will actually be worse. At least on Nick at Nite HIMYM was buried at 2:30AM, it will get a key slot leading off primetime on TVLand. Not to mention How I Met Your Mother will be replacing Gilligan's Island there, a complete slap in the face to all classics fans.

mets82 · 06-18-2015, 05:17 PM

I still say gut the entire Nick at Nite schedule. Put movies or something on and come back in a few weeks refreshed and with a better lineup. Put some actual thought into it. Yeah, I know it wont happen.

tenter · 06-23-2015, 01:13 AM

-Sun Jun 28 8PM, Nick/Nick at Nite encores Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules 8PM-10PM
-Sun Jul 5 8PM-10PM Legally Blonde. Rugrats Go Wild supposed to schedule has been pulled.
