>who watches this shit?
Parents

Clearly its the first kids network

idk I wondered the same thing. How can anyone possibly find them funny?

>Nick is filled with sitcoms aimed at pedophiles
>CN is spamming TTG all day for the whole week

Is Disney channel the only one left with a sense?

They're the ones that started all this in the first place.

The answer is "Normies"

But how? The humors literally the safest cringuest shit ever that includes shit trends to seem hip.

>>now is filled with sitcom shit
>Now
What? Nick was always filled with sitcom shows. All That, Kenan and Kel, Clarissa Explains it all, Drake and Josh, all those game shows. Even during its heyday, there were tons of live-action shows.

Most of it back then was cartoons. Now they have like 3 cartoons in total on the whole channel

I work at a school and i often ask kids about tv, games, or movies. I've noticed that girls like the sitcoms and boys like the cartoons. Most of them just use Netflix and Hulu though.

Because they're cheaper to make, and they bring in more viewers than their animated programs.

TV is basically irrelevant now. Only the absolute dregs of society still watch it - kids in poorfag homes being raised by parents who haven't kept up with culture or technology for 15-20 years. Most kids exclusively watch netflix and youtube content.

That explains why Disney Channel is Disney's sit com channel and
Disney XD is their cartoon channel.

Nah, no channel in America has any sense left. Outside of America however, cartoon channels may be still good tho.

Yep, while my niece watches cartoons on Netflix, when it comes to tv, she and her friends will watch these sitcoms. At least she does like cartoons, so I'm happy to see she's enjoying them.

>and they bring in more viewers than their animated programs.
I dont believe you

Shut the the fuck up you streaming obsessed tech fag. Lots of people still watch tv

Blame Dam " The man with a plan to get your daughter inside his van" Scnheider

Nah user, you're just poor.

Ok Sup Forums, what’s your favorite current sitcom

No im not. I even have streaming services but i prefer watching tv. When are you going to stop spamming this shit in threads and realize the only reason why you insult people who like tv still is it gives you a hollow superiority complex?

Adults don't watch cartoons and more girl like sitcoms over cartoons like said. How out of touch are you?

Hey now, Nick always had teen sitcoms, but they were actually well written back then.

The current crop is just hacky meme garbage being used as a front for Dan Schneider's personal escort service.

>watching your shows when TV execs want you to instead of pressing a button to watch it whenever you want in much higher quality

It's not a superiority complex when you're clearly a retard, that's just common sense. Get on with the times nostalgiafag, the fastest we kill TV networks the better.

The humor is cringey shit. They have much better writers on the cartoons anyways
Your the retarded fuck who thinks hes better just because hes shilling the latest tech and think anyone who still likes tv or wants it to be quality is beneath him. Its you faggots that are responsible for CN being fucking shit now. Kill yourself you trend obsessed little shit.

>I watch TV therefore so does everybody.
Oh please. If that were the case, you wouldn't have cord-cutting beginning to make a significant dent to cable subscriptions.

Thats literally just hipster fags like you. Most normal people watch tv. Again, thats not an exuse for CN shitting up their channel

I'm still genuinely bothered by the fact that Eddie McDowd never became human again.

>watching shows when TV execs want you to
Here’s a little trick for ya, pal: you can watch your favorite shows when you want on the internet and also chill with tv when you just want to rest your mind. A little hard for a ragelord like you to understand, but you will get it sooner or later.

That's the POINT, how can you not see it?

I mean, you must know that "shit trends" are trends BECAUSE normies like shit, and that the reason those shows stick to the "safest, cringiest shit" is because those same normies lap it up.

Grown-ass adults watch Big Bang Theory and Two And A Half Men RELIGIOUSLY, everyday, even though the latter is cancelled and the former is 90% references to shit they don't know.

This, it's one of the reasons why I preferred CN growing up. That, and the few cartoons they DID have all seemed to hinge on gross-out humor.

Normies really do need to be genocided for ruining media with their shit taste in humor

Speak for yourself, manchild.

laugh track audience seems to think it's funny enough

>defensing normies
If anything your the manchild for defending shit like BBT

Yea I'm not getting the complaint, Nickelodeon was always 60% live action teen shit. And I liked Salute your Shorts, Welcome Freshmen, and Pete & Pete.

The new sitcoms are a lot of cgi too though, as if they are trying to find some middle ground with live actors, but they are spies, superheroes, or something wacky with tons of cgi added stuff in each scene

They are also a talent pool for later things with the main actors. If they can sing then Nick sticks them into a Nick made pop band, if they can act then they are in a few random Nick movies, or they turn the character into a movie if they are known enough.

>Only the absolute dregs of society still watch
tfw not enlightened enough for Baby Elsa Shits on Fidget Spinner

It was mostly cartoons back then fag

Not that guy, but some people don't have a choice.

I live in an area where Comcast has an internet monopoly. I could watch my streaming services all day erryday, but I have to have INTERNET ACCESS to get them, and Comcast knows they have us by the balls. You can no longer downgrade your service plan from the fucking official website, they just tell you to call their 1-800 number, where they keep you on hold for hours until they hang up on you.

BUT, you don't have to take MY word for it...
youtube.com/watch?v=yYUvpYE99vg

Salute Your Shorts is nice, but impossible to find. I'm a 2000s baby and the only actively good Nick sitcom from my time was Ned's Declassified.

>a Nick made pop band
I can not think of a single one of these other than Big Time Rush, which was just an attempt to cash in on the current Disney monopoly of Hannah Montana Jonas Brothers stuff.

>I'm a 2000s baby and the only actively good Nick sitcom from my time was Ned's Declassified.
Amen to that, brother

Nope, it was largely live action because Nick used to fill timeslots with a mix of their new sitcoms and a lot of 60's kid friendly ones like Flipper, Munsters, Dennis the Menace, and Lassie.

It was not majority cartoons until after Spongebob came along

i actually liked drake and josh, and neds declassified but as soon as they put out icarly you could tell it was all down hill from there. I cant wait for the day Dan "if shes already bleedin shes ready for my semen" Schneider's fat ass has stroke or gets caught diddling a kid

I remember nick in the 90s user. Atleast 60-70% of it was cartoons

doesn't explain why 95% of XD's ads are for girly shit

What happened to action figure ads? They wonder why kids don't buy the toys and they have to cancel the cartoons but they don't even bother to advertise.

That attempt to compete with Disney by copying everything they did was fucking awful. They used to imitate the Disney thing of having random boyband videos in commercial breaks all the time too. It made watching Nicktoons unbearable

star vs is their big hit rn so naturally their gonna market to that demographic but i wonder what the actual rating is between boys and girls

The Loud House

Why should I kill myself when I'm not the whiny faggot who gets angry when Nick and CN won't show my cartoons anymore?
Also, nice dismissing my argument to call me a "tech shill" like that's an insult lmao, how old are you? 45?

If you're paying stupidly overpriced cable just to "chill with tv" you're a fucking idiot.
Still, the argument here is that TV schedules suck and anons are whining about it, but why even try watching it in the first place when you have much better options out there?

You're both retarded.

lol drake bell was supposed to be their superstar boy idol so badly that they put him in a episode of zoey 101 where the protaganist were like OMG DRAKE BELL YOUR SO COOL
now hes burnout that never took off past "i found a way"

Forgot about Drake and Josh, that was good shit too. More surreal than the average sitcom but really subdued.

I know people just say "they stopped being good when you grew up" but by the time they got to iCarly shit objectively changed to just wacky lingo and flashing colors and "RAAANDOM DAAANCING" shit and that's continued ever since. The very first part of the pendulum swinging back around was Loud House but it's still very much in that ballpark.

They largely do not produce toys for their shows on XD i the first place. Not Even Gravity Falls or Star Vs has much beyond shirts and hats

>Why should I kill myself when I'm not the whiny faggot who gets angry when Nick and CN won't show my cartoons anymore?
Because your aupporting the degeneritzation of media you fucking corporate defending sheep. You deserve to die in the most painful humiliating way possible

>If you're paying stupidly overpriced cable just to "chill with tv" you're a fucking idiot.
>says the retarded streaming shill who is too stupid to understand that people just like to watch reruns
Hows that billions of dollars in debt netflix is in? Streaming must be the future especially if they cant find a way to make if fucking profitible you fucking dumbass

This is reading like back in the 2000's when nostalgiafags were arguing that HD is just a gimmick and not needed at all.

Sorry for having a job and being able to buy stuff, user. I'm sure you'll get it eventually.

Exactly, toys would be selling more if IPs werent lazy shit and actually made merch
Id kill for a proper star plushie and action figure

>tfw no marco harem body hug pillows

Maybe because people still like the experiance of watching tv, faggot. But you wouldnt know, you dont have a brain and let news articles and apple products tell you what to think and buy just to appear hip

Indicate where in my comment did I mention Netflix.

>supporting killing off TV networks who for decades killed your favorite shows because they didn't sell toys makes you a corporate defending sheep

It appears to me you don't understand how all of this works.

Before I was just insulting you two, but you seriously are on the spectrum, I apologize.

I need princess marco merch in my life

You keep talking about streaming so i mentioned how a popular streaming service is failing, you mad?
>user doesnt agree with me so he must be autistic
Not an argument you shit netflix shill

You know, a lights and sounds star wand would probably sell really well. Have it in Wal Mart anf Hot Topic and people will buy it

>Hows that billions of dollars in debt netflix is in?

A lot smaller than the equity they're worth because of it.

>trying to defend massive ammount of debt
Topkek, literally nothing will save them from their incompetance and they will go bankrupt in a year because they keep making original shit like dear white people and big mouth no one likes instead of actually holding the rights to popular shows and movies and not letting then go in a month

Well I didn’t had any problems with schedule and tv is cheap in my country so the rest I can get after work is totally worth it. So, how about you give your big boned head a little though that not everyone are just like you next time you will go out and call everybody retards, fartpants?

Im more of a figure fag then roleplay stuff, but i agree with you. I know alot of people were excited for those garnet hulk hands and are upset that they havent come out yet

The Amanda Show, Clarrisa, Salute Your Shorts, Hey Dude, Kenan and Kel, Legends of the Hidden Temple, All That, Double Dare, Are You Afraid of the Dark, GUTS, Cousin Skeeter, Eddie McDowd, Animorphs, Alex Mack, Roundhouse, Figure it Out, Nick Arcade, Wild and Crazy Kids, What Would You Do, Allen Strange, etc.

That is a lot of live action shows. They only had 13 Nicktoons and some aquired cartoons like Tiny Toons and Muppet Babies in the 90s

They had alot becuse they didnt last long either. Im not saying they didnt have live action shit, im just saying the focus was more on the cartoons.

>nick will never do anything as ballsy and mature as are you afraid of the dark again
I didnt even grow up with that, that was going away by the time i was born. I dsicoverd it the past year and goddamn is that show good.

Most of those shows were still airing (albeit reruns) in 1998. I remember seeing Pete and Pete and Clarissa on a Sunday afternoon during that time even though they have already ended

What are you talking about?
Some of their original programming is great, some is shit, some is just okay or mediocre.

How is that different from a regular TV network?
Netflix has had debt for years from all their content buying binges. This year isn't going to change that.
Debt doesn't mean you have no money.

The Amanda Show and All That were by far the best live action Nick shows in the 90s. The blockblister segment never gets old.

I was two at the time. Most of those shows were before my time. Its not even that there live action, its that all the modern ones are shit and take away spots that could be used for more cartoons. Thats sortve why i hate dan shinder and his shit writing and humor, and hope the rumors are true and that if he gets busted for diddiling kids nick will be forced to greenlight more cartoons and cancel all his shows.

Most of their content is shit. And if they keep hving this much debt they will fail. Its inevitable. Atleast they dont make feminist man hating shit like hulus handmaids tale, but a show with a talking vagina isnt much better either. The only good things netflix has made is stranger things and legend quest.

>legend quest
I was going to dispute your debt claims but shit taste like this shouldn't even be validated with a response.

Your the one with shit taste for thinking that it was anything but animated kino, faggot. Have you even watched it?

Flash shit worse than Canada vs something made by a studio actually saving American animation? I'll take the talking vagina.

This user is on the right track. It is so much harder for a cartoon to thrive than a sitcom. Cartoons need to serve the extra purpose of generating toy sales, or they'll be dropped in a heartbeat regardless of how quality it is or the size of its fanbase. There are some exceptions like the original Duck Tales (which was the first cartoon to make it on its own merit) but that's just what they are: exceptions.

>It is so much harder for a cartoon to thrive than a sitcom.
But there more popular

Okay so who's gonna end up buying this at the end of the day, Disney or Warner?
>tfw a Nick-Disney or Nick-CN merger will happen in a couple of years

Not to mention, Dan "FootFag" Schnieder is responsible for 3/4s of them.

One of the oddest things I ever heard came from some show... Ricky, Dicky, and Dawn? Something like that. It was during the election and they made this really on the nose political joke. It wasn't like an Animaniacs caricature joke. This was way off the wall. It went like
>We're gonna move all the skaters over THERE
>Yea! and then we're gonna seperate them with a WALL
>Better yet We'll make THEM build the wall!

It wasn't funny. There was no joke but the canned laughter played anyway.

Bro, I am a normie. And I can tell you as a matter of fact that no one thinks those shows are funny except sheltered children.
>people who don't agree with me should be genocided
That's a bit over the top

And it's not the fact that they put politics in a kid show. Like I said Animaniacs and shows like Freakazoid and Spiderman made references to pop cultre too.
It's the fact that the creator was so salty he tried to make kid viewers think Drump is dumb by making the bad guys have the wall plan. Not to mention kids weren't (or shouldn't have been) watching the election anyway. Not to mention also the joke is already dated at this time.

When their idiocy and shit taste in entertainment is ruining everything, they must be culled to stop it spreading like a cancer. Same goes with nustar wars fans and company defenders.

>kids that repeat the """jokes""" to make their parents and friends laugh, and feel grown up
FTFY
