International Nickelodeon Thread Part 16

DubDB says some episodes were blocked from airing in Kazakh due to using the wrong vocal tracks
I know that, I said "Which could mean "NEWISH" SpongeBob episodes that are new to Kazakhstan." There are some limits to address. Yes! The dub is infamous for its lack of quality control, as it was dubbed by two studios, and all episodes were released on Amediateka.

From what I can find, these are the episodes that are being omitted/blocked from Nick Global's (limited) schedule:
"The Sponge Who Could Fly"
"SpongeBob Meets the Strangler"
"Pranks a Lot"
"Fear of a Krabby Patty"
"Shell of a Man"
"The Lost Mattress"
"Krabs vs. Plankton"
"Dunces and Dragons" (already aired in June 2023)
"New Leaf"
"Once Bitten
"Bummer Vacation"
"Wigstruck"
"Friend or Foe" (already aired in 2022).

The list goes on... It could be a scheduling practice from PARA-SKY's EMEEA scheduling policy for omitting certain episodes or by the amount of bizarre mistakes from the dub, as this was nothing new like its neighbor Global Unlimited for pulling specific Loud House episodes that werent localized in a certain language.

dewd, reminds me of CN EMEA's limitations in the past, where segmented shows had full-length special episodes omitted because they did not fit in the playout formats.
 
Nick UK skipped 2-parters from the nighttime repeats of iCarly and Victorious for a while in 2020-21 then added them back.

Did Amediateka keep the wrong vocal tracks intact or what?
 
By wrong audio tracks, what track was played by mistake? English? Russian?

Backing track of the episode that matches the video but the entire voices of a different episode

Actually they had left it intact.

Referring to incorrect vocal tracks and M&E errors from other episodes. As the dubbing studio was in a rush job for dubbing over 265 episodes, and they were produced in 2021 during the COVID era after borrowing the 2020 national grant from the government.

My friend Logan is the one who documented most of those errors in the first place. X
 
Is Kazakhstan global limited? X

Another question. Other than pre-2008 where the home video distributor ITI were cheapskates (really don't get why those aren't disused, especially the SpongeBob movie), and the iCarly episode iBloop (because that's kind of "detached" from the show world so it fits) does any other Nick stuff have voiceovers in Polish? X

KCA is voice-overed. Mostly by Janusz Zadura feat. Klementyna Umer, or Magdalena Herman-Urbańska. The 2020 one, iirc, was lectored by Paweł Bukrewicz.
 
I do recall once where a regular Bubble Guppies episode aired on Nick Jr NL with the audio of that one special where Bubble Puppy is turned into a frog. Though it might be a fever dream.

Yes. Kazakhstan is receiving Nickelodeon Asia (Global Limited).
Nickelodeon Global will air reruns of old SpongeBob episodes starting July 5.

Not only that they will also gonna air the whole season 1 of TLH with one of the most loved episode "The sweat spot". Also sadly iCarly, Victorious and Sam & Cat will be replaced with SpongeBob old seasons through the week but they will still have slots on Saturdays and Sundays.

I remember that in the summer of 2011, Nick Iberia's Portuguese track aired the wrong episode of George of the Jungle (only the audio track), IDK what the episode was, but we got the Castillan Spanish track to Ape Ruth. The next segment played out flawlessly.
 
Will they air "Mid-Life Crustacean" on Nickelodeon? On SkyShowtime, they have season 3 episode 15, but only the segment "The Great Snail Race"; "Mid-Life Crustacean" is omitted entirely and it just goes straight to the credits.

Also, I found this treasure trove of a YouTube channel uploading multiple classic Nickelodeon videos (including Nickelodeon in Nordic countries!):

My only real gripe is that the videos cannot be commented on due to the "made for kids" designation, and that the video descriptions are copied directly from the English Wikipedia's potentially unreliable lead sections for its articles on international versions of Nickelodeon.
 
while it seems like the monsters vs aliens nickelodeon series was safe from these kinds of audio errors where the audio from another episode would accidentally play over the intended episode on nickelodeon (or at least no such errors were documented with this show on any nickelodeon feeds), the same cannot be said when the show aired on super polsat in poland, as this exact error happened once on that channel with that show in 2021, where the episode “vornicarn” had a completely different episodes audio playing on top (cant remember which one from the top of my head though, my lack of polish knowledge probably doesnt help), technically not a nickelodeon error but it involves a nickelodeon show so i thought i would at least mention it given the current conversation
 
It seems like Nickelodeon in Sweden had Swedish text from the beginning.

It's because the SpongeBob Birthday Celebration stunt.

Here's a fun article I wrote on why Ruby and Jade from Sofia The First are good characters.
Okay hear me out, Isn't it kind of crazy how CN never thought about doing a Kids Next Door x Teen Titans OG crossover back in the 2000s? There's five members of Sector V, five titans, and they both have super cool HQs. I'm telling you guys, a TT and KND crossover would've been so epic!
Watched the live-action "Moana" today and felt nothing that special compared to the original 2016 film. In fact, I don't remember much from the first animated film, but I think they barely changed anything in the 2026 version
