17 years ago today, Nickelodeon released their new logo to quite some controversy, and my take on it is that (while they should've stuck with the 1984 logo to this day) this rebranding should've happened in mid-2010 like Cartoon Network and Disney Channel's rebrandings.

  
Some of their shows that aired after this rebrand were notably produced before it, like BrainSurge (who debuted on the first day with its 22nd episode, and thus season 1 still had the 2006 splat in the logo), Team Umizoomi (who has the 2006 splat in early season 1) or Fanboy and Chum Chum (which has a beta intro and some pre-release material with the 2006 splat). 



Meanwhile after 7 Secrets debuted on April 24th, they h

While Wild Grinders fully premiered on Nicktoons on April 27, 2012, and first started out as a series of shorts in 2009, the show aired a sneak peek 15 years ago today.

  
The show is my favorite Nicktoons channel 'original', one of my favorite Nickelodeon acquisitions, and should've aired on the main Nick channel more than once (which aired it on May 12, 2012).

While Milo Murphy's Law premiered on Disney XD on October 3rd (and Disney Channel on October 24th), the show's first half-hour was released a decade ago today digitally (and was free for a limited time, as I still have it on Amazon), followed by it getting released on demand a week later.

It's my favorite of the Dwampyverse trilogy, as it has the best comedy, best plots, best writing, best overall songs, and best quality across its seasons (as I'm not big on Phineas and Ferb season 1 and Hamster & Gretel season 2).

Happy 10th anniversary to (the digital premiere of) Milo Murphy's Law!

Uncle Grandpa premiered 13 years ago today. It's my favorite Cartoon Network show (especially in its first season, which is its best one), and ultimately while it got a pretty got run on the network (at least until 2016), I think it could've been picked up from The Cartoonstitute earlier.

The show's pre-spinoff Secret Mountain Fort Awesome premiered 2 years, 1 month and 1 day earlier, and it's my 3rd favorite CN show (Mixels is 2nd). However I think it also either could've been a proper spin-off (so it and UG swap premiere years), or it becomes a segment on the show (like Evil Wizard, Weird Man, etc.), and said segments are proper episodes I Am Weasel/Evil Con Carne style.

Or even more ide

Season 8 of The Fairly OddParents premiered in the U.S. on February 12 2011, but first premiered in Mexico and Latin America 16 years ago today (August 26 2010).

  
It's my tied with season 9 as my favorite season of the show, and is the only season with no bad, mediocre, or even okay episodes (Meet the OddParents is good, Love Triangle is great, and Timmy's Secret Wish, Invasion of the Dads and When Losers Attack are some of my favorite episodes).

2016's Legendary Dudas was an interesting show, in that it was a rare quarter-hour live-action show for Nick (previously seen on Ned's Declassified, House of Anubis \[sort of\] and Fred: The Show). 

It also had very few episodes, getting only 6 half-hours (11 individual episodes since the first one was a half-hour). Somehow Nick still aired them out of production order, as half-hours 4 and 6 respectively premiered before 3 and 6.

After its finale on August 13, it never reran on Nick at all, and only had 2 reruns in total on July 19 and July 20 (thus meaning it only aired on Nick 8 times). 

Although on TeenNick (which premiered it on August 6th), it last reran on November 23rd (although it

While I like all the teams to some extent, I think the elimination order could've been better (like the Wizard and Adversity Twin duos from PI making the top half this time), but overall both the top 9 and the finalists were pretty solid.

The tierlist I'm using didn't have Philonious (Harold's wizard friend from One Flu Over the Cuckoos Nest), so I used Gwen's brother as a substitute image.

Since the Nicktoons turn 35 years old today, I've decided to rank them all.

Outside of the top 2 Nicktoons (Back at the Barnyard and Monsters vs. Aliens) the Nicktoon at the very bottom (Middle School Moguls), these aren't necessarily ranked in order.

Some shows could also move up or down a tier, but overall I generally agree with it.

My Nicktoons Ranking

Ever since I first watched Total Drama 11 years ago, Max has been my favorite character of the whole series (tied with Leonard), and like Leonard on his Reddit birthday, I decided to write a eulogy for Max since today's his Reddit birthday.

Alongside being tied for best character, Max is the best villain of the series (and there's barely any competition on that to me), as his wannabe villainy is absolutely hysterical (and fitting for a comedic parody of reality TV like Total Drama), and his dynamics with the others are pretty entertaining too.

  
Max also managed to reach the final 5, which is great since I'm not fond of a lot of them, but what's not great is that it's the shortest final 5

A little eulogy about Max (my favorite TD character tied with Leonard) for his Reddit birthday

Even though I like every character in this cast, it kinda stinks that some of its best characters were early boots.

That said, the merge roster is still perhaps the best the show has had, and the same can be said for the finalists chosen (I heard they planned for it to be Shawn vs Sky, and while that'd be a solid finale, I prefer them going with Max vs Sugar).

Robot and Monster premiered 14 years ago today. It was the first new Nickelodeon show I saw live at 8 years old (I started watching Nick in Spring 2012), and it's one of my favorite Nick shows overall, as well as my favorite Nick show from 2012.

  
Also on August 4th 6 years later in 2018, is the final 2 episodes of Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn (of which they're 2 of the 5 episodes from when Dicky left the show). NRDD is another show I find great, and unlike Robot and Monster, it wasn't severely screwed over by the network.

Rabbids Invasion, the TV series version of one of my favorite video game franchises (both this and its origin franchise Rayman) is now 13 years old.

While not being a Nicktoon, I see it (and sometimes Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks) as the final piece of the golden age of CGI Nicktoons, first teased with Jimmy Neutron 11 years prior, then fully started with Tak, Barnyard, Penguins, Fanboy and Chum Chum, Planet Sheen, Kung Fu Panda, Robot and Monster, and Monsters vs Aliens (oh yeah and I like TMNT 2012, so there's that).

While the show's had some flaws, like (as seen in the first screencap) it only airing letterboxed on the SD feed, and season 3 being kinda dull, I overall still think it's g

Happy 13th anniversary to Rabbids Invasion!

The Uncle Grandpa (and by proxy The Cartoonstitute) pre-spinoff Secret Mountain Fort Awesome turns 15 years old today (specifically its sneak peek, as the full show would premiere later on September 26).

Like The Problem Solverz (which turned 15 back in April), Secret Mountain Fort Awesome is great and overhated (it's my 3rd favorite Cartoon Network show, with Mixels at 2nd and its post-predecessor Uncle Grandpa at #1).


In an ideal world, Uncle Grandpa would've been picked up first (like how it was pitched to The Cartoonstitute), with SMFA being one of its recurring end segments that gets properly spun off (like I Am Weasel from Cow and Chicken, and Evil Con Carne from Grim & Evil/the Bil
