This is possibly due to the fact that Nickelodeon will go downhill in 2009.
 * 2) *Kamp Koral, while not terrible, is generally considered to be the weakest of the good Nicktoons shows, since it has the "kid versions of classic characters" trope (while decently well handled), and had tons of problems that were the norm of The Patrick Star Show.
 * 3) *Likewise, that most popular shows like Rugrats, SpongeBob SquarePants, The Fairly OddParents, Danny Phantom, Winx Club and The Loud House have gone downhill as well, and the seasons have mh:terribletvshows:Seasonal Rot.

 * 5) The show's creators, John Kricfalusi, Butch Hartman and Chris Savino have also gone downhill as well.
 * 6) Some Nicktoons have sadly moved to their sister network, Nicktoons since the mid-2000s, due to have low ratings.
 * 7) Some of the films, either good or bad, can have box office bombs or flop, such as mh:awfulmovies:Hey Arnold!: The Movie, mh:awfulmovies:Rugrats Go Wild and mh:awfulmovies:Barnyard.
