Has one network ever made so many stupid decisions regarding which shows to pick up?

and when they do pick out shows they almost always frick it up and cancel them after 1 season
This. If any of those shows would've ended up on the network they wouldn't have had the same success 'cause they're not SpongeBob
Probably not E,E,nE since that would've been released in 1999, the same year as Spongebob, so it would have stood a chance.
Blame Nick's former president Cyma Zarghami for creating everything bad about Nickelodeon through the late 2000s to 2010s and single handedly ruined Nick's reputation.
>if it's not as immediately successful as Spongebob, drop it!
what a strange way to handle things.
shows like catscratch, Edgar, and kablam would be successful on Cartoon Network.
Also Pepper Ann, Proud Family and Billy & Mandy.
>I NEED CHILDRENS FEET IRL FEET
Fox says hello.
Nickelodeon is run by dangerously incompetent people. I don't know when that happened, or if that was always the case. They're also pretty malicious judging by how they treat the shows they do pick up. I think they even frick you over if you so much as send them a pilot. Bad company.
>I think they even frick you over if you so much as send them a pilot
Didn't they tried to have a monopoly on animation pilots after Adventure Time's success?
Compare Adventure Time's concept art with Fanboy and chum chum's. Then you'll see why Nick picked the later.
Pedolodean would've canned those shows anyway.
Crazy.
It's a miracle any show there succeeds.
They also mildly screwed over The Legend of Korra too.
I think they didn't give any writers for the whole first Book, so that entire book is written just by Bryan and Mike.
What are examples of cartoons that CN and Disney passed up that ended up on Nickelodeon?
El Tigre I believe.
>El Tigre
the grandpa alone was reason enough to watch that shit, homes
Pinky Malinky
Harvey beaks was originally pitched for the Disney Channel or Disney XD last I heard
>Adventure Time
This show was basically just FOP anyway, with less magic: good in the early seasons but then bad ideas took over.
>Ed, Edd, and Eddy
I think this would've gotten way more success on Nickelodeon, it probably would've ran for a few more seasons, but ratings stunts (like sending them to school... and god knows what else) would've been pulled more often too.
>Phineas and Ferb
Has NIckelodeon ever really done musicals? Outside of occasionally? It feels like it would've been a much more different, and hence much less successful cartoon without that.
>> I think this would've gotten way more success on Nickelodeon, it probably would've ran for a few more seasons, but ratings stunts (like sending them to school... and god knows what else) would've been pulled more often too.
You'd think that, but look at the bum deal Nick gave Craig Bartlett over Hey Arnold (no Jungle Movie for him originally).
And now they are using his show to shill pngs
>This show was basically just FOP anyway, with less magic: good in the early seasons but then bad ideas took over.
That is the most random comparison ever.
They were both Frederator pastel heavy cartoons with magic and adventure elements that involved a boy, his dumb buddy, a nagging pink female, lots of ship baiting that seemed meant to never satisfy anyone, status quo bullshit up that ass, taking a joke crazy old guy villain and sort-of redeeming him / making him an anti-hero later on, and then after the fourth or so season it seemed like they made a point to shit on the older seasons as much as possible.
You know, seeing that pic had me thinking:
TGAMM was actually pitched in the 90s. What would it be like if it was accepted back then, instead of now?
Wasn't it pitched in 2003?
Creators already revealed ton of preproduction info
>They would have lived in a Transylvanian castle instead of a small town
>The ghost would have been a vampire
>Molly would have been named Piper and would have been half black instead of half Thai
Just imagine if Mina and the Count got picked.
Or Fatcats, or Hard luck duck, or steve and larry
>Ickelodeon ever really done musicals? Outside of occasionally?
Well they would do the occasional musical special of a show, but I don't think they ever had a show with musicals as a consistent part
Don't forget Dragon Prince
>Wow, This action show was wildly successful for us
>Time to NEVER EVER DO IT AGAIN and let the entire cast and crew go!
>greenlit Mr. Meaty, Fanboy & Chum Chum, Sanjay and Craig
Are you by chance noticing a pattern OP
I liked Mr. Meaty.
>Sanjay and Craig
>Bad
You sicken me.
I mean what is that, it looks like someone tried drawing roger from american dad as an ugly girl
Kys zoomer
Actually Nickelodeon didn't pass on Ed, Edd n' Eddy, the creator passed on Nickelodeon.
>Passed on Adventure Time
>Nickelodeon didn't pick it up
OP, they did the right thing. The mistake is that CN picked up that rotting charade some people like to think is a quality tv show.
This. Nick dodged so many bullets passing over these dogshit shows.
To be fair, this is pretty common for all entertainment studios. The biggest failure was not picking up Adventure Time when it was ready to go after a pilot and already an online fanbase.
Why does Nick keep making these wacky over the top irreverent grossout fart humor cartoons when their most popular show for 20 years got popular for none of those things
