Dude... LOL!

Now I have a 1 1/2 year old niece and a baby girl so naturally I decided to check up on good ol' Nick.

I clearly said that my niece was 1 1/2 and that my daughter is a baby.


oooo my bad ^_^...I was like did he throw her in a time machine???

Most of the programming went to shit. Not as badly as Cartoon Network but still, the only thing watching on Nick can be counted on both hands.

I saw Yo Gabba Gabba one day and it's like an acid trip for kids. Then again I saw some old Ren & Stimpy episodes and that shit is fucked up too, you just enver realize it when you're growing up with it.

Even now a show like Rugrats is good. Is is good enough that a parent can actually sit down and watch it. I also agree with Blacksaber, Ahh Real Monsters! was a good show too.

I also REALLY enjoyed Salute Your Shorts as a kid though.

 

I think todays problem is not just these shows being as retarded as they are, but also the fact that EVERYTHING is computer animated. I even hate how Disney took that route. What happened to the good ol' animated cartoons drawn up by artists? 

My jaw hit the floor when I saw in the beginning of Care Bears, during the trailers, that they made Popeye computer animated... seriously... wtf?

 

I only know all this because I actually bought the DVD collection for Care Bears. What is worse is that I didn't buy it for my daughter. I bought it for my girlfriend long before she got pregnant. O_o

I used to watch Nick all the time (could never completely spell Nickelodeon) but now I only watch Spongebob Squarepants on that channel. I think Cartoon Network has gotten worse.

I think TV in general has gotten worse.

Don't forget that every station has their own version of CSI and Grey's Anatomy as well. And Seth McFarlene is funny and all but come on, The Simpsons is the only cartoon on Fox that ISN'T by him.

I am forced to watch Grey's every Thursday along with Private Practice because my girlfriend is a fanatic of both shows. Same with Desperate Housewives on Sundays.

These shows aren't horrible, but maybe I think that because those are the only shows ever watched on the TV.

 

Anyways, I agree. It is all the same exact crap rehashed time and time again. The networks find something that people like and then they just duplicate it time and time again until the next big thing comes.

Don't even get me started on this reality TV crap though. My god. To think, I used to feel that it was bad when the only reality crap I saw was Real World and Road Rules on MTV. Think of how I feel now? O_o

VH1 is one of the worst offenders for that. They have like 7 different dating shows.

Flavor of Love, I Love New York, Real Chance of Love, For the Love of Ray J, Daisy of Love, Rock of Love, etc. They ran out of ideas.

Cartoon Network is terrible now apart from Adult Swim (it's getting worse, imo). The only shows I like from that channel is Courage the Cowardly Dog and Ed, Edd, & Eddy. I miss Johnny Bravo and the Powerpuff Girls :( Does Boomerang have those shows?



What time does Ed, Edd and Eddy show?

Can't wait for VH1 to start airing Love Love of Love with Lovey Loveson.

And poor Cartoon Network...who the hell had the bright idea to go to a CARTOON network and start trying to push reality tv for kids? It seems so...moronic. Can't believe they trashed all their good stuff so quickly.
