TeenNick (TV network, 2009-2021)

TeenNick (stylized as TeennicK) is an American digital cable and satellite television network that is owned by Nickelodeon Group, a unit of the Paramount Media Networks division of Paramount Global.

Why It Used to Rock

 * 1) Aimed at ages 13-17, it was formed from the merger of two former programming blocks for teenagers: TEENick on Nickelodeon and The N on Noggin.
 * 2) The network features a mix Nickelodeon-produced series (Drake & Josh, Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide, Zoey 101, Unfabulous, iCarly, True Jackson, VP, The Troop, Big Time Rush and Victorious), acquired programs (Degrassi: The Next Generation, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Everybody Hates Chris, That '70s Show, Family Matters and Full House) and formerly original programming geared towards pre-teens and teenagers.
 * 3) It launched the programming block called NickRewind (formerly known as The '90s Are All That, The Splat and NickSplat), which was great and aired on nighttime were it aired some classic Nickelodeon shows for both Nicktoons and live-action shows from mid-late 1980s to the early-mid 2000s as well as some films which was released by its parent company, mh:greatestmovies:Paramount Pictures.
 * 4) This channel even has original programming like The Nightlife, Gigantic and TeenNick Top 10 as well as some programs that premieres from Nickelodeon such as House of Anubis, Star Falls and Hunter Street.
 * 5) Nick Cannon was named the Chairman of the network and the development and creative consultant, until 2020. He was also hosts the network's TeenNick HALO Awards and the music video countdown show, TeenNick Top 10.
 * 6) The commercials, promos and bumpers were fun to watch. The website for games and videos were also good as well.
 * 7) Not only were the network's shows rated TV-Y7 and TV-G, but some shows also carry TV-PG and TV-14 ratings as well.
 * 8) They even aired both classic and modern shows during the marathon.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Not all the shows were great on the channel, including many of the post-2010 Nickcoms, which tend to air after the good shows on school days now.
 * 2) The network quickly became a rerun farm like Nicktoons, mostly airing reruns of old Nickcoms (especially Drake & Josh and iCarly).
 * 3) The network started going downhill in late 2021.
 * 4) *Shows like Victorious, Drake & Josh and Zoey 101 were suddenly removed from the line-up. While Drake & Josh and Zoey 101 have been off the schedule other times before, Victorious had been a staple to the network since day one, making it all the more jarring.
 * 5) *Then in December that year, iCarly was added to NickRewind, and took up most of the block, removing every other show, besides Rugrats, which eventually left the block too, leaving iCarly the only show on it. This led to the discontinuation of the block after January 31, 2022. With NickRewind gone, and the aforementioned shows off the network, shows like iCarly, Henry Danger and The Thundermans are now being overplayed on it.
 * 6) *Current shows like Side Hustle and That Girl Lay Lay air a lot on the channel too, even though they are already on the main Nickelodeon network.

Trivia

 * It was one of Nickelodeon's sister networks to be replaced, along with Nick Jr., due to that Nickelodeon's new logo on September 28, 2009.
