It won’t ever happen but just imagine if they rebrand the same way Cartoon Network did.Īs you can see, their three desired shows will still get the most screentime while giving equal attention to other shows, who only seem to air reruns whenever they’re having new episodes. This is my fantasy schedule of Nickelodeon for the year 2022. What I’m going to do is stop making sure that the side channels get more screentime of currently airing shows so that the main channel can be the hub of both old and new. They always knew the audience only wants SpongeBob, Loud House, and family animated movies, such as Despicable Me, Ice Age, Alvin and The Chipmunks (90% of which aren’t even owned by Paramount Pictures), so they always go with the safest option instead of taking risks. Only the preschool block is a tad decent, but even their love of Paw Patrol can get out of hand at times.īut yes, Paramount+ is the major key factor of Nick phoning it in with the schedule. But now, it feels like Nick has given up at making a decent schedule. Before that, live-action shows and lesser popular cartoons (it can happen, but it never lasts long) would have a regular timeslot, preventing from both of the cash cows from taking over. Since about mid 2018, Nick has weeks, if you don’t count preschool and Nick Nite content, where they only air two shows - SpongeBob and The Loud House. As you can tell, Paramount+ has been a winner for Nickelodeon content and it may or may not impact the live feed in some way. But I am going a tad off-topic here, since we’re supposed to be covering Nickelodeon’s live feed and how it’s going to stay relevant with Paramount+ succeeding and I’ll be dividing it by networks on how to solve the problems. As I graphed other VCBS networks, though, they are a little more varied than MTV and CC, despite abandoning their gimmicks. TV Land seems to be stuck on autopilot since it has almost never changed. Comedy Central has become South Park/Office Central for those who enjoy watching Eric Cartman and Michael Scott’s shenanigans. Granted, MTV has already become a shell of its former self since they insist on playing nothing but Ridiculousness when they’re not showing movies or the rest of their lineup. Before CBS ALL ACCESS rebranded to Paramount+ on March 2021, the live feed was always put over streaming since ViacomCBS wasn’t too active on moving on to the world of binge watching (despite their schedules already being infected with marathons after marathons).
