Bad Qualities

 * 1) They also made some bad Nicktoons and Nick Jr. shows. Some are even on Terrible TV Shows Wiki. It is considered by many that anything released after 2009 is of lower quality than earlier cartoons, with some exceptions.
 * 2) Some of the animators who worked for the studio, like John Kricfalusi, Butch Hartman, and Chris Savino, are no longer respected due to their controversies.
 * 3) * Speaking of John K., because of his sexual harassment allegations in 2018, the studio removed/made private some Ren & Stimpy videos from their YouTube channel and they removed his portrait from the studio as a result, as well he's not going to have financial remuneration or creative input in the Comedy Central's Ren and Stimpy reboot made by Nickelodeon Animation Studio themselves.
 * 4) Animators like C.H. Greenblatt and Micah Wright were mistreated at the studio by the former Nickelodeon president Cyma Zarghami. Her taking the position in 2006 is considered the downfall of Nicktoons and Nickelodeon as a whole.
 * 5) Unfortunately they rejected some pilots that could be potential Nicktoons, such as Constant Payne, Crubside, The Modifyers, Adventure Time (fortunately Cartoon Network picked up Adventure Time instead and made the series one of their biggest successes in the recent years) and recently with Planet Panic, according to the pilot's creator Gene Goldstein, Nickelodeon is not going pick up the pilot.
