What do you think went wrong with Nickelodeon? It was amazing back in the day, and remains a big part of our childhoods.

Now, it's practically the Spongebob Channel, and none of the other shows other than Harvey Beaks are worth watching

Ah... Nick. Those were the days. I remember shows like The Mighty B! and how Neopets were still a thing those days. Now, only Club Penguin and Webkinz are up-and-going (like a turtle, but going.). Shining Stars was buyed by Mattel and "died" years ago, BB2.0 ended in 2013, yup. There goes another part of my childhood. Not even CN or Disney is as good as it was a few years ago. The only thing I like about CN is Pokémon and SpongeBob is the only reason I watch Nick. Hopefully, a MOTHER, Metroid or Starfox series could come up for CN. And maybe even reruns of Kirby and translation of the F-Zero anime.
Well, Nick has its moment of fame, but I am afraid what is good doesn't last long. If only they made a new series (for Neopets, maybe?) that is worth watching, and not a geeky-gamer Sam and Cat-esque show (why the obsession with geeks NOW? Couldn't it have beem during the Apple/Microsoft era?).

The new TMNT is the only reason I even remember Nick is still a thing some days.

I miss 90s-00s Nick.

I'll concede there are individual good Beavers episodes, but the series as a whole is mostly the two of them going "Ahhh" "Ehhh" "Ihhh" at each other. :P

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

If all you remember of "My Brother & Me" is Goo Punch, then it's a great show! ;)
