    Did Rugrats Have More Than One Hanukkah Special?

    They didn't have one for Veterans Day or New Year's Eve either. (There are any number of other holidays they missed - Independence Day, for example - but I am only including ones that other Nicktoons "celebrated"; Hey Arnold! had a Veterans Day episode, and The Wild Thornberrys had one on New...

    The last ep of FOP won't have Cosmo saying sorry...

    Define "end". This is Nickelodeon we're talking about. Something tells me: (a) they aren't going to make a big deal about the last episode they premiere, and (b) they may hold onto one or two new episodes for who knows how many months, just so they can keep saying, "Here's another new FOP...

    What happened to Nick Thanksgiving?

    "In my day," it just wasn't Thanksgiving without Nick showing the Thanksgiving specials...all but one (or two, if you count the one year they aired the As Told by Ginger Thanksgiving episode) showing everyone eating something besides turkey? -- Don

    R.I.P., Henry Gibson

    Henry Gibson, the voice of neighbor Merv Stimpleton on Rocket Power, died on September 14 at age 73. Link to his obituary in the L.A. Times -- Don

    Any Rocko's Modern Life Fans?

    I for one wish they would make Jet Scream / Dirty Dog available again. (Jet Scream was the episode where Rocko and Heffer flew to a comic book convention (in Las Vegas, I think), but the plane crashed; Dirty Dog was the first Bloaty & Squirmy story.) Most likely, it was pulled because they...

    Summer 09 Scheduling Predictions

    I don't see that happening, if only because Adult Swim has already made it clear that they have tried and failed to get The Simpsons. Either it's still making so much money in syndication that Twentieth-Century Fox doesn't want it watered down by showing it on a national cable station, or they...

    "Nickelodeon's 22nd Annual Kids' Choice Awards" Talkback

    Well, the show did run a few minutes past the 90-minute time slot, so it's possible they cut bits and pieces for the repeats, but I did check my recording the east coast "live" feed and there is clearly a cut just before they introduce the nominees. (After the Lindsay Lohan incident in 2006...

    "Nickelodeon's 22nd Annual Kids' Choice Awards" Talkback

    Isn't it obvious? Vanessa, HSM, and Miley winning can only mean one thing... Coming To Theaters In 2011 HANNAH MONTANA'S HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL No, wait - even better: Coming To Theaters In 2011 HANNAH MONTANA'S HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL With Special Guest Appearance By MALIA & SASHA THE FIRST...

    "Nickelodeon's 22nd Annual Kids' Choice Awards" Talkback

    Here's the "list of presenters": Hugh Jackman George Lopez Keke Palmer Robert Pattinson Queen Latifah Amy Poehler Ben Stiller Miranda Cosgrove Zac Efron Nat & Alex Wolff Usually, one of the pre-announced presenters is the Wannabe Award winner. My first thought was that it would be either...

    All Grown Up the end of an era

    "The version I heard was" pretty much the opposite - when Klasky-Csupo presented the pilot for a new show (something about a TV cooking show being a front for spies, I think) to Nickelodeon, the response they got was, "We're tired of the Klasky-Csupo style of character drawing," which is one...

    My Life as a Teenage Robot - Season 3 - Talkback [2008-2009]

    If they ever do show "Turn Coats", right at the start, there's a reference to another series that didn't exactly have proper closure... -- Don

    Voice cast question (The Brothers Flub)

    Cavanaugh was Valerina (I'm pretty sure that's close to her "normal" voice; it's also "Oblina (from AAHHH!!! Real Monsters) without the accent").

    Will there be another "SuperStuffed Nicktoons Weekend" this year?

    You mean on Nickelodeon or Nicktoons? Nickelodeon probably will, except that it keeps its Saturday and Sunday morning schedules the same as usual, since they're still among the highest rated shows on cable TV each week. I don't expect any of the older shows to be aired, however, although it...

    Cat Dog Question

    There were somewhere between five and eight episodes that were made after the 90-minute special, including one that includes a story where CatDog's parents show up again. As far as I know, either Nickelodeon or Nicktoons has aired all of them except for one at least once. (Nicktoons started...

    I Just Don't Understand

    You mean Nickelodeon has stopped doing this? :shrug: How many times was, say, a new Hey Arnold! episode pre-empted for a Rugrats repeat...or how about the time the final episode of The Wild Thornberrys was pre-empted twice in the same week, first for SpongeBob, and then for The Fairly...
