Why You Probably Don’t Remember Friday Night NickToons

I remember watching Friday night Nicktoons with my siblings.

I don’t think I witnessed this 😅





20.9.23

There was that SpongeBob nicktoons summer splats.

I remember watching both blocks on Friday (switching channels) but Cartoon Cartoon Fridays held more of my main interest back in the day because of the cartoons interacting and later, Tommy and Zniga/Tara hosting on a live-action set. No one mentioned that Cartoon Network also rarely reran new content at first. I would have had to tune in for its premiere, remembered this for Class of 3000, Foster’s, Camp Lazlo, and Chowder. They wouldn’t be reran often until a few months or a year. Nicktoons see definitely aired a lot on Nickelodeon, notably Spongebob increased airings the more other Nicktoons were canned or sent to Nicktoons.

I had no idea it only lasyed such a short time. It made duch an impact on my Friday nights. I absolutely adored it.

I definitely dont remember any weekend blocks other than Snick, looks like I was too old for the others

Correction Nickelodeon was NOT bigger then Cartoon Network from the late 90s to 2005. Cartoon Network literally beat the Super Bowl that’s how crazy big it was. They even had promos like “61 million fans” for DBZ ratings brag. Look up DBZ 61 million fans. It was more popular then nick and Disney combined.

fnn

Part of the problem may be how much Nickelodeon has switched around their time slots for animation premieres. Weeks of premieres (4-5 days a week), Friday nights, Saturday mornings, even Sunday nights... it's been all over the place for years now

I remember being like 7 or 8 in pjs watching all that the Amanda show chalk zone Saturday night from 8 to 10 then nick @ nite started with cheers and I would turn to toon Disney or Cartoon Network

When I saw the name of this video I thought "I remember Friday night nicktoons! It was where they aired new episodes of there shows! I loved it! not as much as cartoon cartoon fridays, but I loved it!" but as you discussed it more and talked about the shows that where airing, I remember now that the only thing I really liked about it was the new Spongbob episodes it aired and Jimmy Neutron. Jimmy Neutron specifically was and possibly still is my favorite nicktoon made, and it was my favorite show on TV back when it aired. Even up to season 3 when it got cancelled I think it was really great. I remember absolutely loving the movie as a Kid and getting so excited when I saw a TV show coming out, So like I think the excitement I got from seeing that show air for on the block is what really kept it in my memory for as long as it did. Combine that with some of my all time favorite spongebob episodes also airing during this block and it really made it stand out for me. That being said, I would only ever watch it if it was airing an episode of a show I was really interested in, and even then I would only do that if it was a show I was more interested in thant whatever Cartoon network was playing at that time. The more I think about it, the more I realized I had a schedule as a kid lol. I knew whenever each network would air the premier on friday and when they would play the re-run on saturday, so I would just kind of pick and choose witch one was more important and watch that one as it aired.

I remembered both.

As a kid growing up in the '00s, i was very fond of the Friday night cartoon blocks. Since i was a big fan of SpongeBob, Fairly OddParents, and Jimmy Neutron (the holy trinity of early '00s Nicktoons), i ended up tuning into Friday Night Nicktoons over Cartoon Cartoon Fridays. Really wish they kept the studio branding going for longer, but perhaps they didn't want to keep showing bumpers that contained a bunch of canceled shows.
BTW, there's a variant of the intro that replaces Zim with Jenny that i think is still lost media.
(Also, does anyone remember Friday Night Slimetime? That was dope!)

Heck i remember the block "U-pick with stick stickly "

I remember when I was 8, every Friday I would be torn on whether to watch Friday Night Nicktoons or WWE Smackdown

I remember Friday nights Nicktoons

Yeah I remember Friday night nicktoons. Mostly when I was introduced fairly odd parents. Lol. I didn't know it ended that fast though

I remember

that is odd for me not to remember friday night nicktoons,I've watched nickelodeon all my life,I've also watched CN and disney all my life to,and I loved all 3 channels equally,I've watched cartoon cartoon fridays,I've watched snick,but for some reason I can't remember friday night nicktoons,but I did watch all of cartoons on all 3 channels so maybe that is the reason why,thanks to my forgetfulness over the years I guess it's possible my brain just couldn't handle everything I enjoyed when I was a kid (shame on you memory that's the reason why we have memories to remember things)

Coincidentally, I just remembered the Friday Night Nicktoons block existed not too long ago. You did a great job going over the history of the block, and the comparisons you made to the Cartoon Network Friday Night block showing how the Nick block didn't have as much to offer as the Cartoon Network Block did. That really put into perspective why Nick's Friday Night block isn't as well remembered as Cartoon Cartoon Fridays. Great video! 👍

I remember both

Weird I had no idea Nick also tried the CCF formula. Here in Latin America didn't exist at all. The closest thing we had was a block called "Nickmix" (With a Lego-like branding)
Also. Nick leading all the time? Taht's weird news to hear xD During that time nobody even tried to compete Cartoon Network, and Disney Channel was just non-existent (It was a Premium Channel for some reason), Nick fought for the second place against the Fox Kids Channel until mid-to-end 2000's... Until Disney Channel became a Free channel and the rest of the story is predictable.

Did you know Nick was also originally going to have a block like Toonami? And that's why Invader Zim was even greenlighted in the first place

Sorry nickelodeon fridays belong to cartoon network

I noticed Rockos Modern Life in the background and that show was off the air completely

I'm guessing if it had hosting segments like ccf did it would be as remembered ccf

Wait i thought people at least remembered the Friday Night Nicktoons intro…

It's probably due to the lack of host introduction. Maybe that's the reason why it didn't last long.

But at least it did pretty well, though not as successful as Cartoon Cartoon Fridays.

The Equestria Girls reviews been pretty underwhealming especially with constantly bashing those first two and licking Josh Haber's boots, like giraffs their feeding hand! Zion kraze?
