Happy birthday Cthulhu.
In interesting news, last night, my sister was channel surfing (I assume) and she came across something unexpected. Apparently the channel Teen Nick is playing stuff from the golden age of Nickelodeon (The 90s Were All That) later at night now ala [adult swim] style, according to how they have it laid out (factoid bumps, random clips from other shows, old promos/commercials for old shows, the good ol' classic slogans/tunes. old SNICK and Nickelodeon bumps from back then, etc. It's the 90s condensed in a few hours), old shows, live action and animated; game shows and Nicktoons (and the real Nicktoons like Rugrats, Doug, Rocko's Modern Life, and AAAH! Real Monsters, and yes, they might even bring back Ren & Stimpy, no Spongebob here). I mean, you want a trip through memory lane, there you go.
If they end up playing The Adventures of Pete & Pete again, I advise you watch that show. Best writing ever there, not a single episode was unfunny, and they're still funny today too.
Looks like I'll have to rearrange my midnight TV lineup again.

Apparently, it all started last night. Sweet. That explains all the pilot episodes that aired.
↓: Were The Angry Beavers not a Nicktoon? Of course they'll be included. I would naturally assume that with high enough ratings (undoubtedly), I think there will become a Nick Classic channel added to their network, much in the style of VH1 Classic, sorta.
I wonder if they'll bring back Space Cases as well? Think of it like Firefly before Firefly with a mix of Farscape/Stargate (Farscape with living ships, and Stargate for MacGuffins and Chekov Guns all over the place conveniently used by the end of an episode), except for kids of the 90s. Kaylee (or in the show, Catalina) even did engineering for the Christa back before she served Malcom Reynolds for the Serenity and had pretty awesome rainbow hair while at it too.
