Should Nickelodeon get rid of Nick at Nite? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Seeing as more majority voted yes to remove Nick at Nite. The block has been going downfall for years airing autopilots, and with new acquisition airing on late night slots instead of primetime. SpongeBob taking up on N@N primetime slots, and movies airing almost every day or every week, with same repeated movies.

Bottom line: let the block gone for good

I just wish it would go back to the way it was when it started 30 years ago. Now TV Land is about as bad, with original series that are probably as trashy as anything on the networks. At least there's Me-TV to keep me happy for now. Antenna TV has good things too, but since it isn't on U-Verse, I can only see it on a so-so digital signal from a home digital antenna, and it does some of the things more typical of other stations now, like syndie prints (Me-TV usually airs full episodes, even if they're a bit sped up.) and credit crunching.

Yep. There's no reason to have both Nick at Nite and TV Land, especially with Cable TV dying more and more everyday.

mets82 · 12-14-2015, 01:06 PM

I voted no. If they didn't change it or gotten rid of it by now, then I don't think they will. I think they should get rid of Nick at Nite, and TVLand or at least reboot the channels.

mets82 · 12-14-2015, 02:16 PM

Yes, I think it's the beginning. Watch when Younger comes back. They will probably pre empted everything for it. They are going to screw with TVLand because not only is Younger coming back but I think another new show is coming.

I think Nick@Nite should reacquire Home Improvement and air it in the 10PM or 11PM hour every night. (7 nights a week)

imanoldguy · 12-22-2015, 12:57 AM

Yeah. I've flipped past this channel a few times and ugh.... All the shows suck EXCEPT The Fresh Prince Of Bell Air. But yes I do agree with most other posters that Nick should get rid of Nick@Nite

HauntedThunderman94 · 01-13-2016, 05:44 PM

Nick at Nite is waste of space. It's just the same four shows (Full House, Friends, George Lopez and Fresh Prince) played to death multiple times a night.

Crusinforabrusin · 01-13-2016, 07:42 PM

Definitely. Like previous posters have said, its the same 4 shows every single night with no variety. Now if Nick@Nite added more 1970s ,1980s,1990s shows, other than Full House, Fresh Prince, Friends, George Lopez, I wouldn't have a problem with it.

king of comedy · 01-13-2016, 08:15 PM

it is a waste. I agree with more variety it might get better.

James28 · 02-27-2016, 03:18 PM

Any TV-show-rerun channel that has to air the exact few shows and therefore lacks variety is really boring. If the viewership for such channels is high or respectable, then it (the viewership) would be questionable. This thread shows that any Viacom-owned cable channel just can't be trusted.

They shouldn't get rid of it, they should just change the shows.

More classics from 60s-90s.

Svenfan1234 · 02-27-2016, 03:31 PM

Yeah, kind of like how The Hub was

LOL that's the problem.

^ Agreed. N@N is so crappy now
