You are the new nickelodeon president

What you do?

Bring back Avatar, this time as a prequel. Don't let DiMartino or Konietzko come back, because they're garbage.

Go back to the 90s philosophy.Be experimental and give complete creative freedom(with in reson)

honestly I'd sink the network and air a bunch of cartoons that appeal to me. See if I can get some fantasy and action shit aimed at adults 20+ on the network maybe with some beast races. I'd probably also try to get some shows for kids just so that I don't alienate all of my viewers

Realistically, I'd bring back shows that had failed in the past due to executive meddling. The most recent example would be Greenblatt's Garage Sale Channel fiasco, but I figure Nick has sent other shows the way of the dodo before.
Also, I'd stop making shitty sitcoms. The last great one they made was Drake and Josh, and the last Good one was Victorious. Everything after has been and is complete shit.

Crash this channel with no survivors.

I'm just gonna have all the writers and animators produce shit that appeals personally to me and fuck viewing figures. Maybe the shits will like it, maybe they won't, I ain't care. Shit, maybe I should just have them all make cartoon porn until there's no money left.

Sign this man up for a 12 year contract.

Cancel it and run more Spongebob.

cont.
after nick junior I'd air "for the whole family" shows until the evening then I'd air some edgier shows. I want to take some time from regular nick and nick at nite and make it into an adult swim like block.

for the first block I might drop the shitty live action shows and replace them with something better. do what this user says

I don't know what shows I'll pick up for the block before nick at nite but I'll let animators pitch shows for adults and try to get some more action/drama shows because there really aren't enough action cartoons nowadays. I'd also love more fantasy stuff.

it would also be cool if I could make a worm cartoon.

>>you have to save the network
I'm the mother fucking president of nickelodeon, I wouldn't give a fuck and air more spongebob like they've been doing. You'd be crazy to pass up such an easy job.

bring back all that, legends of the hidden temple and the aggro crag

BRING THE BIG FOOT LOGO BACK

Burn off all the episodes of the new show on Nicktoons, run more Spongebob.

Make an Invesment for several famous or upcoming creators to pitch a show

Get around four or five of them

Make sure that they can be interesting to the general audience by releasing them through proxies and pretend that they have no ties to the network, those that prove to resonate well get aired first
Make sure that some have continuing storylines as that brings interest to a rather large but unseen audience base, but make sure the episodes (For the Most Part) Can be viewed out of order


In the meantime air Old Avatar and have Korra re-runs on Friday nights from the beginning till end.

Air the shows and hope it all works out

Where will you put the 9 hour block of Spongebob?

90s Nostalgia Block.

Ren and Stimpy, All That, Ah! Real Monsters, Rugrats, and whatever the hell else was popular back then in a 3 hour block from 7-10 pm EST.

What's a drastic move that could bring new audiances to Nick?
TV is dying and someone needs to do something big to bring in new people to the dying channel.

Naked game shows. The internet may already have porn, but it doesn't have fabulous prizes.

fucking just make an avatar TV show of whatever happened in the comics. stories already done and good, everybody will watch it that read the comics (i.e. big fans) and most people did not read comics.

like walking dead

If most of you are serious with your suggestions, stay away from the television industry.

I'd invest in more IPs that I can pitch the crap out of to merchandising and toy companies, get out of the theme-park business, and put more towards content acquisition.

quick question, if a show was made that involved a lot of monster/weird characters, do you think that simply making figures or toys of those characters would be profitable? Like, don't market them as action figures, but just straight up collectible shit for the show?

Freakazoid Reboot

>Cancel everything
>Hand SpongeBob over to Cartoon Network
>Brainwash all employees into committing suicide

I would show a cow eating grass for about 13 seconds as a bumper, over the years it slightly changes, a horse shows up in the background, sometimes there's a guy walking, once in a while it's even night time.

No one knows the meaning of this cow, the cow becomes an indicator of how a show is performing, if the cow shows up and the camera zooms out it's doing bad, if the camera slowly zooms in it's doing great, if it's an extreme close up you know your seeing a rerun.

No one is told this of course, audiences will have to find it out for themselves.

Also, I guess spin off Spongebob into a Tiny Toons clone.

-Hire the Mystery Science Theater crew (Joel, not the other guy) and have him host 2-hour long marathons of classic Nick cartoons, capped with a viewer call-in panel show afterward.

-Cross license some cheaper European and Japanese shows to save costs while new shows are incubated.

-Keep repeats of Spongebob and Loud House, but rather than airing them in single blocks, alternate them with other shows as lead-ins. Air debuting shows or struggling shows in blocks instead.

-Have Butch Hartman create a show with all female characters.

-Renew Loud House for 5 seasons, but have a definitive end. Tell Savino to pitch a new show at the end of season 3.

-Create an in-house merchandise arm to produce mid to high range limited edition products to sell direct online. Short runs, short window of sales.

Make SpongeBob spinoff shows :^)

90's nick revivalism
new kablam
re-air some older shows like chalkzone
fund two new original two season 26 episode shows

If they were to do that, they better show Sokka and Azula finally hooking up.

I like the way you think about cows user, and would the cow be white with orange splotches and will it be animated or in real life?

Power Rangers does it; Ninja Turtles does it.
What's stopping everyone else?

We get back into making good video games. Also we set up a website choke full of ads and ways to trick kids out of their money that has extra content like bloopers, merchandise, competions and a question of the day to get people to visit the site. it also allows users to submit shorts and if they get a high enough rating, then they can get an animated short on the network.

Give a few great cartoonists who are proven successes, but still not huge on the television market, full creative control.

Namely:
The Brothers Chaps
Some of the Newgrounds people (Oney, Stamper, etc)

Bring back people who are competent at show-running, but aren't really doing anything:
Craig McCracken
Rob Renzetti (though apparently he's working on the new DuckTales? Unsure)
John Dilworth
Danny Antonucci
Mitch Schauer
Maybe even Jhonen Vasquez if somebody can suck enough dick

If nothing else, the former gets you the internet kiddos audience, and the latter gets you the nostalgia crowd. Hopefully those can cross pollinate.

Get rid of the shitty sitcoms nobody cares about

Bring back Avatar in some form (prequel, side story, miniseries)

Basically, make it a more family friendly version of Adult Swim. Bring in talented people, let them try whatever they want. If it sucks, get rid of it after a couple seasons. If it's great, let it run for a million years like ATHF. Nick just has to stop being a corporate shit-show.

And lastly, embrace streaming. Like, really really embrace it. Cable packages are dying. Animation is time consuming and niche, so it's difficult to make a network out of it with the cable industry drying up, so adopt streaming ASAP. Make a lot of the old backlog available from the get-go, so people will have something to watch, then as the new shows go up on TV, next day streaming.

>-Hire the Mystery Science Theater crew (Joel, not the other guy) and have him host 2-hour long marathons of classic Nick cartoons, capped with a viewer call-in panel show afterward.

Would watch

Embezzle.

real life, definitely white with orange splotches.

this way it can show up to the kids choice awards and everyone can get cool glass of orange milk straight from the source.

Give Dan Schneider full creative control.

I create a Minecraft show

Ankn if you made worm into an action cartoon on an adult swim like block for nick i would literally suck your dick in from of my family.

Do a boatload of cocaine and approve every action cartoon I come across regardless of quality.

Sell off the company and get out of the biz ASAP. Use the billions to snort coke and have nose surgery to become part of the Jewish elite

>What you do?
Create an international shorts program and let viewers vote on which is their favorite. The most popular cartoon will go on to represent the country of origin and could perhaps shape pop culture and the next big thing. It could also be about a particular subject and as an effect the interest in that subject starts to pull people in.

We're not just making cartoons here, we're also creating a timeline of human events.

Blu-ray releases of all programs.

>Air Harvey Beaks more often
Network saved

But they are currently in the opposite position. They have only one new cartoon with a low quantity of viewers
