It is both an honor and a pleasure to not only collab with you dude but be the first person to get a "WARNING STRONG LANGUAGE" bumper on your channel, you're welcome? :P
thanks for all the good info keep the good work up.
I will!
TRAFON why no more vids
A bit of advice, you gotta do something about your mic and your S's. They peak your mic and make it hard to listen to.
Im working on my mic settings, I think it was Discord picking up my voice
Cyma took the good Nickelodeon name and she soiled it! SOILED IT! SOILED IT! SOILED IT! SOILED IT! SOILED IT! Did I mentioned she soiled it?
Where’s the off button on this thing?
Kot237 ok nick i've decided I'm going to run away, run away and find a new channel
now its christina miller's turn to leave cn
nickelodeon had a good name?
Mighty Tighty Whitey And I'm Smuggling Plums Most from before Spongebob was good, so yes.
Nickelodeon is probably in the corner crying because they didn't pick up Ed Edd n Eddy, The Proud Family, Phineas and Ferb, and Adventure Time. This woman is to blame for most of those not getting picked up.
Alberto Productions Gets especially worse seeing that shows that she did pick up instead of these shows. Then again some of these shows might have been extremely different or might not have lasted as long so at the same time it’s a minor blessing.
Kinda hilarious at the same time since she basically helped CN and Disney by giving them some of those shows basically when they rejected them
Well, thanks to Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network became great again with Adventure Time (along with Regular Show) after a long slump where they mainly aired Canadian cartoons and live-action shows (on *CARTOON* Network).
As for Disney, Phineas and Ferb was a good show, but it doesn't help Disney Channel that much since they mostly air cheesy live action sitcoms. They even moved their animated series to Disney XD, where they died a slow and painful death. Watch Saberspark's video "What Ruined Disney Channel" to know more.
Personally, I think that her rejecting Adventure time and Phineas & Ferb is a blessing in disguise. Let's face it. If those shows made it on Nickelodeon they would've lasted for like 2 seasons.
If these shows got picked up, alot of networks would have their histories changed.
Actually its the opposite now at first they wanted to make Disney xd there own Cartoon Network but they moved the cartoons to Disney channel ducktales big hero 6 and star vs the Forces of Evil are on Disney Channel now. And Disney channel has gravity falls reruns again.
This is really discouraging to hear for people who want to make cartoons. Having your show being treated like garbage just because it's not a cash cow like certian other shows.
WeegeeSlayer if I had my Cartoon treated like this I'd sue them and contact the writers union
You probally will get blacklisted for that
Raging Reality maybe your right, I'll just have a talking too with them, and I was referring to Cartoon Network
Raging Reality how does WBB look the same? Did you even watch it?
Raging Reality but what about shows like adventure time which hasn't aired for months, and the very inconsistent airdates for Steven universe
It’s funny when you think about it. Her awful leadership and actions saved Disney Channel and Cartoon Network. Nick turned down Phineas and Ferb and Adventure Time which became Disney’s and CN’s most successful shows ever and lead into the this amazing wave of animation we are experiencing. Cyma was better at running the competition than the company she actually worked for.
Phineas and Ferb is hilarious but Adventure Time is trash
icecream hero Why do you think Adventure Time is trash? The show has gotten better lately.
ADP1998 yeah, no. I’m stopping this before it turns into a huge thread arguing over the quality of Adventure Time. My comment was not about the quality of the show but the undeniable fact it is CN’s biggest show ever and played a huge part in getting the network where it is now in terms of the quality of their shows.
1) Its too excessively weird for the sake of being weird that is the wrong way to make a cartoon. You should be weird for the sake of being funny and have normal people paired up with weird people to balance out the weirdness the Simpsons would not be as funny if Marge and Lisa weren't around to talk some sense into Homer and Bart Spongebob wouldn't work with out characters like Sandy Squidward or Karen Regular Show wouldn't be funny without Benson 2) its annoying 3) its creepy and sometimes disturbing 4) They over rely on weirdness instead of telling actual jokes 5) I can't stand any of the characters they are so unrelatable 4) The plots are often confusing and make no sense especially the later seasons(6 You can't escape it no matter how hard you try other cartoons try to be more like it. I can't stand those round ugly adventure time teeth (7 I hate the annoying made up slang I wish they would talk like real people (8 The best shows on the network are nothing like Adventure Time What Do Gumball, Teen Titans Go, We Bear Bears and Unikitty have in common they tell actual jokes, have slapstick, puns, and sometimes satire like a good cartoon should 9) Is so boring (10 I get filled with furry and rage when someone brings it up.
Most of there current shows aren't very good the only ones that are actually funny are Gumball, WeBearBears, Unikitty, and Teen Titans Go. The rest aren't very entertaining.
Probably the clickbaitiest title I’ve ever seen from you, but this topic deserves it. Not a criticism, just an observation
I mean, for maybe the first time in history, this type of title is accurate.
Came here just to say that! (except I was talking about the thumbnail). No offense Pieguy, but still :P
I think it just seems that way because it has the word "exposed" in it but? It's true
Well he’s losing views and this is a great opportunity to get some!
PIEGUYRULZ do you still think she had something to do with SpongeBob going on for a while and having the shows of the past cancelled also what do you think of the loud house and welcome to the Wayne
She's the reason why there was cringy dabbing, nae nae, and whipping meme ads
At least we have De Se Dab on Nick India.
MY EYES ARE ON FIRE!!!!! AH AH!!!!!
I hated those ads they were really annoying
My youngest sister, who is in the second grade and is the TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC hates those ads the most.
Thank God she left! Is Cyma the reason that there are ads after the SpongeBob theme song? Is she the reason that Nickelodeon is so damn cheap in general?
LARRY 21 ugh seriously???? I hated it when they added ads after the theme songs of the sitcoms. Now they’re doing it for cartoons too?
She was one of the biggest reasons for that second question you asked.
erin 36 Yep, they have skipped to ads after the theme song (for SpongeBob at least) for a few months now, it's really annoying, and I feel like that's one of the reasons the show's ratings have plummeted. Nobody wants to watch a premiere of a new episode if ads play right after the song instead if going straight to the title card/credits.
LARRY 21 off topic comment all of our users have numbers at the end lol
erin 36 Oh yeah, that's really ironic, lol.
Thank you for mentioning Making Fiends. It deserved so much better then what it got.
I'm an aspiring artist who'd love to draw and write for a living. But with the current state of the industry I'd rather be a starving indie creator than sell my soul to these monsters.
I look at the internet and I defitnely see how it isn't viable for most artists on here yet to do big projects of their dreams, compared to the Tv, movie and other media industries. But it just feels actually safer to produce content on the internet and be poor, even if you may be pushed into doing things that isnt your dream art. Because all I hear about in the animation industry is wage fixing, blackmail, abuse, sexual assault, paygaps for everyone, exploitation and other shady shit. And I know it can be all media, and there are some wonderful people, systems and businesses there, but it kinda just feels like playing Russian Roulette right now with what you get, and again I'd feel much more safer just making a business with my creative control even if I am poor in the process.
I'm an aspiring cartoonist and an author who looks into the future but I don't know if Nick is going to do this to my work.
So let me get this straight, this lady came in, trashed all the content, ruled like a tyrant, let the money grow up and up, and then take the money and ran?
Yep.
I stopped watching when it became the All-Spongebob Network with clones sprinkled in aside from Fairly Oddparents episodes.
GigaLem Pretty much. And over the years, so many fingers were pointed at the wrong people for Nick becoming more and more trashy. But now... the truth is out, in a way I'm sure NONE of us expected...
She came, she saw, she scramed.
It's ironic that Nick's "Spongebob Test" is called that because Spongebob would've failed when Rugrats was the channel's golden child. Hopefully whomever takes Cyma's position will let future shows get popular gradually instead of damning it to fail.
Brian Kaslewicz ikr?
Brian Kaslewicz is she the reason Rugrats was canceled
That's true Brian! Spongebob took, I think two seasons to become mega popular and if it debuted today it wouldve been shoved under the rug in a few months. Also Rugrats took I think 4 or 5 years to become a cash cow.
@@booklovinggirl cant say for sure I dont work in television
Cyma's Nickelodeon was a company that wanted IMMEDIATE profit. Right away. They did not want to take risks or deliver quality animation or let a show build popularity over time. And that is why Nickelodeon is now in the sad state it's in.
It’s going to be really hard to bring back Nickelodeon from all of this.
It's probably only gonna be about as hard as it was in the 90s honest Lee
Inb4 they talk about gender identities on the new Clarissa Explains It All
Give it a year or so. There's a lot of people in the back with animation ideas ready to go
Well Brian Robbins is the new president of Nickelodeon and he was one of the creators of Kenan and Kel and All That
It would cool if the reopened Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando and brought back game and stunt shows with audience participation, but that is probably wishful thinking.
Wow, and I thought Cartoon Network was bad, they have NOTHING on Nickelodeon. With Cyma Zarghimi and Dan Schneider gone, I feel the network will slowly get better, but it still has a LONG way to go before it can regain it's former glory. Either way, good riddance to her!
While I have no idea what the new CEO will do, here's 10 things I would do if I was the head of Nickelodeon:
1. End Spongebob after the third movie. It will put closure to Cyma's era, and allow for a fresh start for the network. Reruns of Spongebob will continue to air, but will be phased out over the years in favor of newer shows, that way the yellow sponge goes out more peacefully rather than in vain.
2. Hire new creators to pitch new pilots to the network. I would then hold a contest in which several of the pitched pilots are posted to the Nickelodeon website, and then have people vote on what their favorite pilot is, like Cartoon Network's Big Pick Weekend. The 3 winning shows will be greenlit. The creators of the shows that didn't get greenlit will be hired as writers on the shows that did get picked up, that way they get to keep their jobs and keep the new generation of creators and writers.
3. Reduce the amount of live-action shows to the last 3 hours of the day, focus more on animation. Live-action won't be removed from the network, and two new live-action shows should be greenlit.
4. Cancel any shows based on pre-existing properties, with the exception of Power Rangers. Let's go back to how the network was in the 90's in which original content was prioritized.
5. Replace Nick at Nite with an adult-oriented block to rival Adult Swim. Have it start at 10 or 11 PM so the kids can't watch it.
6. Get at least one action cartoon on the channel to add diversity to the network, and breathe life into the genre once more. Also it should be an original property and not based on a pre-existing franchise. If possible, re-hire Micah Wright and have the action show be Constant Payne, finally greenlit after 18 years.
7. If Micah Wright doesn't want to return, give the rights to Constant Payne to him so he can do whatever he wants with it, like pitch it to Netflix or Disney. At the same time, give the rights to Making Fiends back to Amy Winfrey.
8. Make at least two animated TV movies a year and one animated theatrical movie every other year or so. These can be based on Nickelodeon shows or they can be original films completely. Let's put Nick back on the big screen like it was in the past.
9. Start a streaming service with a premium membership that will allow for new episodes to be viewed one week before they premiere.
10. BRING BACK THE SLIME!!! The lively looking studio too, not that sterile look it has now.
Above all, I would focus on making Nickelodeon the #1 network for kids and families once more, since this was the WORST decade of the network's history.
Masterge77 Also Continue their Revivals.
@J Turner Actually, while I'd have any revival that was being made under Cyma continue, I personally would rather focus more on newer, original content. Nick's past is very important, but I believe it's future is more important, because the next CEO is going to either make or break the network.
Masterge77 I say put equal focus on both.
1. Spongebob is the mickey mouse of nick they would be fools to cancel it 2. Giving the creators jobs on the other creators shows isn't that good of an idea what if one writer isn't a good fit for the cartoons that win. Writters have to take a writting test to work on a show 3. That sounds bad i don't want to watch ripoff adult swim adult swim is trash The only good show they have are the FOX shows Also it will forever be seen as a ripoff and never escape Adult Swim's shadow 8. Thats a terrible idea a cartoon should get a movie just because it exists. Some tv shows wouldn't work well as a movie. people like 3d movies better than 2d movies
The revivals are needed as the shows did not even have closure in their first run.
I never expected this kind of video from you.
She probably yells at store workers for their manager because their isn't a Starbucks at target
I feel bad for the creators,writers, and animators in Nickelodeon.
Probably a good thing that she’s leaving. The way she did things was horrendous. It was around the time she became president that Nickelodeon rapidly started to decline. The once cartoon powerhouse was reduced to Dan Schneider and Sponge Network. The advertising got worse. Reducing to memes and trendy garbage. Fanboy and Chum Chum, Breadwinners, Sanjay and Craig, Game Shakers, Grow Up Timmy Turner, an hour long Atlantis Squarpantis instead of eleven minutes, and many more mediocrities were green lit during her presidency. She handled things horribly and hopefully the next president can handle the network way way better.
Is she also the reason for Viacom?
@Unusual I stopped watching Nickelodeon around 2012 because the network had gotten so bad around that time that I couldn't stand anything that was on the network. I mainly jumped ship to Cartoon Network, but then that became the all Teen Titans Go network, so I gave up on that as well. Nowadays the only animated shows I watch are anime from Japan, because most western animated shows anymore are absolute garbage.
Masterge77 There are good western animated shows but most of them are on streaming services.
@ADP1998 Yeah, but it's a problem for me because I have no access to any streaming services as I cannot afford them, so I just record the anime that airs on Toonami and watch that instead. I'll return to western animation once the networks start to get good again and stop churning out crappy goofy comedy shows.
i wouldn't say sanjay and craig was bad
I think the reason why Bunsen Is a Beast final two episodes weren't on their website because Nickelodeon was mad that Bunch Hartman left Nickelodeon and decided to not put the final two episodes on their website as payback.
But that show stank, so it wasn't really a loss.
If that’s the case that kinda fucking petty but at the same time the show wasn’t that great so at the same time it isn’t that big of a loss unless you were a fan of the show. I personally wasn’t but you get what I mean
Lightning Kerchoo Nick is honestly guilty of doing that with A LOT of their shows. I can name a good chunk of shows along with even some new ones at times that got moved to Nicktoons, TeenNick or their websites before they got a fair shake or barely got through of their first season either because it wasn’t a cash cow like Spongebob or what TTG is to CN or a bunch of other BS reasons. Nicktoons at this point is basically the equivalent of a deathbed cause shows that get moved there are either borderline canceled or just canceled in general
Its not quite as good as fairly odd parents but its pretty funny
So it got Korra'd?
Assuming this stuff is true, it's quite scary that this has been going on behind-the-scenes at Nickelodeon for such a long time. Sounds like they need to fix their internal operations ASAP.
MonstersReview hopefully with Cyma’s tyranny over, this can expose Nick’s vile practices and a change can happen
Honestly, since I'm much more of a Cartoon Network fan, I'm just wondering how this would change people's view on Christina Miller. Because the fact this proves an executive can be the reason a network goes to shit may validate people's accusations of her. I honestly think her strategies are a lot more credible than Cyma's ever were, but still.
Do you think Cyma Zarghami is also responsible for putting current internet trends, like memes, dabbing, and the floor is lava, on Nickelodeon
Spicydav23 yes
Yep. And the Deal With It 🕶 meme, and the Snapchat thing. Something people of her age would not even understand 😒
@@jazzyjock I Liked The Snapperchat Shorts
Instaclam
Cyma made iCarly to cash in on Hannah Montana, Haunted Hathaways was a Wizards of Waverly Place clone, BTR cashed in on Jonas Brothers, Victorious is basically Shake it Up. Cyma was more focused on cashing in on Disney Channel shows rather than original content. I can list a few more examples. Spectacular being a cash in on High School Musical, Make it Pop a copy of Victorious(and cashing in on K Pop trends), Game Shakers a copy of iCarly to sell app games, Thundermans a copy on the Wizards of Waverly Place Formula mixed with cashing in on Superhero Trends the list goes on. Nick needs to stop making these kinds of shows. More cartoons and live action that are not trendy tween sitcoms is going to be essential to this channels survival.
Nicky Ricky Dicky and Dawn has the same lazy sicomic formula as, basically, ANY new Disney Channel sitcom where the main characters are freaking KIDS! Also I actually like BTR, same creator of Ned's Declassified, Scott Fellows.
Understandable if the shows quality of BTR is decent BUT it is fairly hard to deny that it was a cash in Disney Channel.
@@noahbossier1131 true 🤔
From my understanding, iCarly, BTR, and Victorious were enjoyable but I agree on the rest
@@mk3a What is BTR?
So basically, the previous Nickelodeon president was basically Kuvira from the Legend of Korra. Somebody bad got taken out of the job and the person to pick up was all the more worse.
Considering all the damage Viacom has done over the years, I am happy to see some long overdue justice be done.
Yay! An hour long discussion of controversy by PieGuy.
If I was the new CEO/president of Nick, here's what I'd do:
1. Cancel all current live-action shows and only greenlight goods ones (Kinda like
how Disney Channel has greenlit good live-action shows like Andi Mack)
2. Bring back classics from the 2000s, like: Invader Zim, Jimmy Neutron, My Life as a
Teenage Robot, and Danny Phantom
3. Do a full reboot of Rugrats, with most of the VAs reprising their roles
4. Bring back Hey Arnold and make it a continuation, yet have the feel of a reboot to
please fans, both old and new. Have it set after the events of The Jungle Movie.
Having Arnold's parents would really add a new dynamic and character
development to the show.
5. Greenlight Constant Payne, after 17 damn years!
6. Greenlight the Nicktoons movie and give Ren & Stimpy, at least a 5 minute cameo
appearance.
7. Reopen Nickelodeon Studios and bring back a lot of game shows likes Double
Dare and Legends of the Hidden Temple.
8. Give "The Splat" it's own channel, while still keeping it on Teenick
Who was it?
For one thing, I wouldn't air live-action shows on Nicktoons Network. That channel should just air dead Nickelodeon cartoons, and not waste time slots with the live-action stuff that could easily be put on Nickelodeon or Teen Nick.
That may be a good idea to bring back classics but Jimmy neutron might be tricky since it might cost a lot of money because of the DNA company that made it with Nickelodeon
03bgood double dare was on yesterday when I wrote this comment and it was new
Don't bring back the old cartoons let them die in peace
Remove the "m" in Cyma's name and you get "Cya"
hey fred
Okay. So?
Everything about this pisses me off. Both Miller and Cyma are terrible presidents that have pretty much screwed many shows over. The worst thing is that vile harpy Cyma is getting away with her crimes. She should be charged and blacklisted.
It really is a shame how people like Butch Hartman, CH Greenblatt(Harvey Beaks) and The Constant Payne creator can get justice done for their shows
with miller it's more of incompetence with the decisions at cartoon network, however with cyma it's disgusting
ShadowJr Fincher that’s true. But they are both bad though
Phineas 626 Both networks need major overhauls. It's sad that Disney Channel, which sucked until recently, is the best kids network we have.
Carl Bloke as well as rob renzetti Jorge Gutierrez and many MANY MORE cartoon artists who got screwed over
Carl Bloke I don't think that Miller is that bad, after all, there are still some really good shows on CN. (Amazing World of Gumball, Steven Universe and We Bare Bears just to name a few.)
This definitely sparks a lot of interesting debate about where Nick's future is headed. They've got plenty of revivals in the pipeline, two of their biggest creators, Butch Hartman and Dan Schneider are gone, the president Cyma is gone, and Viacom will be merging with CBS soon. Things at Nickelodeon are changing, hopefully for the better.
I just hope whoever Nickelodeon's next president is will be good. I know all this awful information about Cyma is going to split people up in terms of what they're going to do. I know some people are going to boycott Nickelodeon because they don't want to support them anymore. I know some people are only going to watch the shows they like to give them as little viewership as they can. I know some people aren't going to care about any of this and are going to keep watching Nickelodeon because they genuinely like their shows. And I think that's fine. There's no true right answer to this.
Personally, I'm gonna keep watching the stuff from Nick I like or I'm looking forward to like The Loud House, or the upcoming revivals of Double Dare, Static Cling and Invader Zim. I don't think there's a need to "boycott" Nick because Cyma is gone now, so there's really no point now, but that's just me. Regardless, I hope these changes at Nickelodeon will be for the better. And hopefully their next president will unblacklist Micah Wright and greenlight Constant Payne! But maybe that's just wishful thinking. Maybe that streaming service they're launching this fall and the merger with CBS will be a step in the right direction. We'll just have to wait and see.
Also P.S. Pieguy, did you mute me on Twitter? I saw TRAFON reply to my tweet but I didn't see my tweet. I'm @snorbertd1.
Hopefully, the next president doesn’t end up canceling all the planned revivals. That would be the worst thing to happen on the network.
I doubt that. Most of them are too far in to production to cancel. Static Cling is actually already completed, so they gotta air that one.
All That to the rescue (co-creator Brian Robbins is in charge). Also, Static Cling might go to Netflix which is somewhat a good decision.
This is a vain hope, but I do hope that the Creator of Constant Payne can get one more chance to greenlight his show... Especially since Nick unfortunately owns the rights to it...
Michael Maddox He owns the rights, Nick put a clause on his contract that prevents him from pitching it to any network other than Nick.
D.C Productions Is there a way to beat that clause? Does the clause include nontraditional networks like Netflix?
We need that show and the Modifyer to air on Nick.
@Michael Maddox Well it's uncertain that Micah Wright will return to Nick now that Cyma is gone, considering what Nickelodeon did to him he probably has a very heavy distaste for the network at this point and rather have nothing to do with the network. Not only that, but Constant Payne was an action cartoon, and we all know what networks think of action cartoons, so... chances of it getting greenlit at this point are slim to none.
As for what he's doing now and what he can do instead, I have no clue, he's probably working some minimum wage job at a grocery store.
Nickelodeon has been dead to Me ever since they aired that awful Sanjay and Craig show
That show was fine
Been dead to me since Fanboy and Chum Chum... probably even before.
it wasn't just one bad show, it was one bad show in a ocean of shit since the late 2000's, run by one of the worst president's in cartoon history. i can name youtube animations that are better than most of nick's crap.
Nickelodeon died in 2012 there was literally nothing to watch on the channel back then besides spongebob,spongebob and only spongebob.
@@booxiebmeowmeow I disagree, but I’ll respect your opinion
In an alternate universe CakeGirlSuckz (pieguyrulz ) made a video about the greatest Nickelodeon president that Greenlit a bunch of successful shows like adventure time stepping down
I see a pattern. Modifyers not being greenlit and Korra being mistreated is because of Cyma's mentality that "Action shows turn kids into terroists". Based on the fact that so many cartoons have been screwed over I beleive that Cyma has a mentality that cartoons are only for the 7 and below set and the Live Action shows are for the older audiences. in other words the mentality was there that "kids grow out of cartoons into live action trendy sitcoms". This mentality is because Cyma beleived that cartoons are only for little kids.
I think Nick Splat is on TeenNick so that network can get better ratings. But I do agree that it is a good idea to have it replace Nick @ Nite.
Makes you wonder what Christina Miller and Robert A. Iger have been doing.
Jennea Coleman-Cubero Christina Miller just doesn't know how to run a channel, what Cyma is doing here is actually disgusting and she is self aware
@Channel Undefined Good point. Hopefully now Nickelodeon could get a better boss.
Jennea Coleman-Cubero Nickelodeon could actually improve with a new president. The network has been on a decline for several *years* now.
The Splat and Spongebob was basically their life support.
@ADP1998 All CN needs to do is go to rehab for its TTG addiction, let other shows have more screening time and we should be fine.
Oh man I love The Rise And Fall Of Nickelodeon. This is gonna be a great one. And Cyma has been needing to either step down or get fired for years now. It's been a long time coming. This is honestly so sick and disgusting, the things she did to these people. I wasn't a fan of Harvey Beaks, but I hope he has moved on and has moved passed the bullshit he dealt with and same goes for Micah Wright. I hope he is doing well. I'm glad he publicly has tweeted about this. I hope all these creators move passed this and find solice in it somewhere. Also, Kira Kosarin 2 Kid's Choice Awards ago gave a shout out to Cyma saying she is the best but my take on it is that she only was saying that because Cyma forced her to say that in order to make herself look good while all this messed up shit was happening in the background under our noses. Just a theory, though. Want more evidence to back that theory up? Nobody else ever gave Cyma a shout out when winning an award and also what other award show have you seen where award winners thank the CEO of the company that they worked for?
this president far worse than any other nickelodeon president or cartoon network presidents for that matter
Rise and Fall loves you too!
Cyma's dead wrong. If anything, action shows would inspire the kids to fight terrorists, not be terrorists.
Also, we need to get Micah Wright to create his show via crowdfunding.
First Kathleen now Cyma. Let the witch burning commence.
Nickelodeon is the ea of the cartoon industry
mr walugi guy that explains the spongebob episode, ink lemonade
So we gave up a good logo due to a business card
Can't they get a president that actually cares about cartoons? Having a leader who has a passion for cartoons or at least understands them is the first step to success
Nickelodeon needs another Walt Disney.
Executives were not safe under Cyma either. according to Micah Cyma ruthlessly blamed everyone for failure of leadership. He said at least 8 executives were thrown under the bus in order to perserve Cyma's for another 6 months. Russel Hicks and Broose Johnson come to mind as did many animation executives who ended up at Dreamworks TV and other studios. As the ratings sunk and sunk she blamed more executives instead of taking the blame.
A pieguyrulz video with swearing? I never thought I’d see the day!
Thanks to me you did!
TRAFON lol
When he did a crossover with Mr. Enter, he kinda cussed (though the word motherfucker was cut off, so I don't know if that counts).
I friggin loved Making Fiends, that’s messed up how Nickelodeon only let it get 6 episodes and only aired on nicktoons
What's really messed up is how the creator couldn't even get the rights to her series back.
I don't know if it is late but this information has to do with both Disney and Nickelodeon. One of the comments on Sabersparks "What went wrong with Disney Channel" was from Martin R a person involved in a Disney animated Show.
Here is a summary of what he said
PRODUCTION TIME- Animating, and composting, and storyboarding, an animated series takes 6 to 9 months while filming sitcoms take only 3 days.
COST- Animated shows cost between $100,000 to $250,000, Sitcoms cost between $15,000 to $30,000
Ratings- Animated shows get ho hum to average ratings(This is primiarly due to the KGOY phenomonon) Sitcoms get average to Explosive ratings(again due to the KGOY syndrome and the animation age ghetto)
Music from animated series is only CD's and downloads while Sitcoms make $$$$$$$ with concerts.
You see where this is going. I've seen plenty of kids say that the sitcoms are cooler because they are not "childish" and they are quote on quote "mature" and that cartoons are purely "for kids"
Noah Bossier What is “KGOY?”
@@troin3925 kids getting older younger marketing phones and stuff to kids.
She proves that she can be just as nasty as a male executive. Cruelty knows NO gender, race, faith, nation, or sexuality.
Strong Language.
In a PieGuy video. Love it.
I do the lords work :P
Let me get some pie flavored popcorn ready
Ew..
Rhyperior Ranger Those two things probably shouldn't go together.
That Doesn't Exist
@@thema1998 Neither Should Curry & Popcorn
For those who don't want to watch, here's what Cyma did:
"Cyma was the executive who (a) killed my Nickelodeon action show in a fit of post-9/11 panic, claiming that "action shows turn children into terrorists," and (b) signed off on anti-union attacks on the 35 animation writers who had just signed their WGA cards and asked for pay equitable to our far-less-profitable live-action writer peers (viewer for viewer, we were paid 1/6th to 1/10th what the live action writers were getting paid on much lower-rated shows). Under Cyma's leadership, Nickelodeon illegally harassed the pro-union writers, then illegally fired or laid off 30 of the troublemakers, lied in federal court to obtain the names of the unionizing ringleaders, then blacklisted 4 of us (including me) by calling every animation house in Los Angeles and telling them not to hire us, then signed a deal with the IATSE Local 839 Animation Union, locking the Writers Guild out of Nickelodeon forever... and only then did Nickelodeon eventually hire back many of the unionist writers & writer/board artists once they had made sure they'd never have to pay any animation writer a single dollar in residuals on cartoons (never mind the fact that the composers of our cartoons and the actors in our cartoons get paid residuals).
During Cyma's regime, the methodology of paying show creators also quietly changed; creators used to get 2% of "Adjusted Gross" of toys, bedsheets, plush animals, etc. based on their shows. That meant Nickelodeon could deduct the cost of toy manufacture and shipping to the stores and NOTHING ELSE. Then, perhaps upset about having to pay millions of dollars to Steven Hillenburg, creator of SpongeBob, Cyma's Nickelodeon quietly changed their creator deals to "Adjusted Net" of toy revenue, meaning they could deduct the cost of anything they wanted from the earnings of their creators. Cyma mentioned your show during dinner for 6 at the French Laundry? That's $3,000 deducted from your creator payments! They've also held the line on what they pay artists & creators on a per-episode basis... from what I hear, it's not unusual for a show creator at Nickelodeon to work 60-80 hour weeks for LESS money per week than they would have earned 15 years ago, even as the cost of living has dramatically gone up. And why? All to disguise the falling ratings. Because if the ratings are low, the earnings from ad sales are low, so to provide profits you have to slash your employees' paychecks, healthcare, retirement funds, etc. All so more, more, more money can be funneled upward to the executives in charge, to the shareholders, to anyone but the artists who create the work.
Perhaps not coincidentally, during the 17 years since I left Nickelodeon, they haven't had a single hit approaching the success of SpongeBob. After all, if you're a creator with a great show and you have another option which would pay you a real percentage of the toy money, why wouldn't you take it? Nickelodeon have spent the last decade treating creators terribly, like when Carl Greenblatt and his staff on Harvey Beaks learned their show and jobs had been canceled via a tweet. Recently Cyma's Nickelodeon had their biggest recent animation success taken out at the knees by a #MeToo firing that every single person at the studio saw building for years. Worse, she recently had to terminate Nickelodeon's relationship with Dan Schneider, the live-action series creator who singlehandedly kept Nickelodeon on the air for 10 years, terminating him because of swirling rumors of sexual predation of their minor actresses... rumors which the #MeToo movement made far more likely to emerge into public view and make Viacom's cash cow network synonymous with child molestation.
And all of this as Cyma watched haplessly while Nickelodeon's ratings slid off a cliff, routinely getting 1/3rd of what their shows used to get. She's spent years blaming Netflix, the Internet, video games, Voodoo... anything than take a serious look at how they chose shows and ran their house.
When I started at Nickelodeon, the executives there loved animation and loved creativity and didn't want to make anything that looked like something someone else would make. That network thrived and grew from #87 in the ratings to become the #1 channel on cable television. Then the executive leadership changed and the channel became about cutting corners, doing everything on the cheap, chiseling away at artist pay, and most especially about selling toys to kids, and aping whatever cartoons everyone else was already doing. Cyma turned away Adventure Time, for just one example. They turned down Phineas & Ferb, for another example. The channel which nurtured weird shows like Real Monsters, Invader Zim, SpongeBob SquarePants, The Angry Beavers, and Hey Arnold became the channel which bought and rebooted stale old intellectual properties like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and spent millions trying to develop ancient nonsense like Mighty Mouse. Once upon a time we challenged #1 network The Disney Channel and their lazy culture of using money and acquisitions to compensate for a lack of creativity... under Cyma's leadership Nickelodeon BECAME The Disney Channel, with their hidebound development process, fear of the unknown, and over-reliance on being the second person with a good idea, and The Disney Channel hired away many of the old school Nick execs and reinvented itself (not completely, it's still Disney, after all, but they're far more experimental than Nick at this point).
It's never a fun thing to see someone be fired, but I can't bring myself to feel sorry for her because I'm sure she's walking out the door with millions of dollars weaseled out of the pockets of series creators and animation artists. And I can't help suspect that she did much of the same with the live action creators and crews (although less so because they're protected by much stronger unions than animators). The freefall ratings alone should have gotten her fired a decade ago, and the failure of their development department to produce anything my kids want to watch should have been the final nail in her coffin... but this is America where the little guy gets fired and blacklisted and the wealthy elite can only ever fail upward.
It'll be interesting to see what happens next. They've got an opportunity here to completely reinvent the network and re-embrace creativity and originality. Anyone want to lay odds that they'll do that? CAN they even do it at this point?
BTW, I only talked about ARTISTS in this post... but the same shit went on in the executive suites. I've watched with bemusement for a decade as the ratings fell lower and lower and lower and Cyma pushed out all sorts of executives, blaming them for her failures of leadership. I can think of at least EIGHT execs whose careers were shoved under the subway trains to preserve Cyma's job for another six months... the list goes on and on, but Russell Hicks and Brown Johnson spring to mind, as do several execs who were pushed out of Nick and wound up at Dreamworks TV animation and other places. She has just ruthlessly blamed everyone around her for her failure of leadership, and rebuilding that company is going to be the work of a decade of consistent leadership during what promises to be the most disruptive era ever in the cable television industry. I don't know that anyone could pull it off."
Upsetting comment
They're not going to pull it off. It's too late now. Far too late. Nickelodeon could not BE more irrelevant if they tried at this point. They're done.
Action shows turn kids into terrorists. Wow great work cyma.
But I watched the Powerpuff Girls as a kid! Am I gOnNa BeCoMe A tErRoRiSt? /j
This video was worth it...this summer will be a year will be one year since Cyma Zarghami was let go. A lot of promising new shows and hopefully they don’t get mistreated
Pieguyrulz For Nickelodeon President!
I always hated the fact that shows got pushed to the side big time or cancel whenever they aren’t massive cash cows like others shows like Spongebob or TTG. Something about that has just always bugged me immensely, especially in the case of Nick
Butch Hartman left that's why it was cancelled
I sincerely hope this means things will take a turn for the better for the network
I went to the Ottawa International Animation Festival in Canada back in September 2017 for a school trip with my University. Many major animation studios and networks were there such as Pixar, Cartoonnetwork, Nickelodeon, and companies from Canada, France, South Africa, and Japan. Nickelodeon had a fancy banquet event with good food, had an Instagram booth and had the creator of Welcome to the Wayne and a few other creators there talking about stuff. The guy who created Welcome to the Wayne also did those old animated bumpers in the late 90s and then worked for 4kids and helped localize Yugioh. Anyways, during the banquet he was talking about his new show Welcome to the Wayne. He was very excited about it and showed us the concept art and story boards, showed us clips and break down what they did. He then showed us an episode that wouldn't premiere until October. At first I thought this show at first seemed a little weird, but after watching it this show looked like it had potential. It looks like a show that maybe I would've watched as a kid. The concept was good and I hoped that it would help give something fresh to the network. Nickelodeon really made this event feel special. But deep down I had a feeling, like a what if feeling. But then months later I haven't heard anything more about the show. Now that I hear this podcast I'm not surprised one bit.
Watching the way Nick has been run all these years has really been like watching a train wreck. Really glad both people involved in this video were able to look into the issue in such a detailed manner. Hope all the creators hurt by the network are able to get back on their feet well.
Now all the secrets that have been kept all these years are mostly out! I’m glad you two are covering this!
So do we call this one off "Down the Pie Hole?"
SOILED IT! SOILED IT! SOILED IT!!!
Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It Soiled It
I hated Cyma during her tenure. She is downright cruel and greedy. Unpopular opinion: Christina Miller is 10 times better than her! Yeah I said it! (Note: I'm not saying Miller is good, but she is considerably less cruel than Zarghami)
I am glad she is gone from Nickelodeon. I mean how could she do that to the creator of Constant Payne?
I won't contest that but still, piss (Miller) is not much better than shit (Cyma).
Cartoon Trash Productions She's still very incompetent.
That's not exactly true.
J Turner Stuart Snyder is a lot worse than Miller.
Actually no, he's not, his last few years were actually pretty good.
It’s because of crap like this that I don’t trust AAA companies and businesses in the entertainment industry anymore. I’m the equivalent of that one conspiracy obsessed man who hates the gov’t when it comes to the mainstream entertainment industry. Thankfully, now that more stories like this are coming out, as well as terrible business practices and desperate short term returns (live services, Call of Duty going deeper down the rabbit hole by chasing the battle royale craze sacrificing the single player campaign in the process, re-airing popular shows over and over neglecting everything else, constant reboots and sequels like “Thundercats Roar,” and “Rings,” that nobody asked for nor wanted (I didn’t see Rings but even I know it was unnecessary, they couldn’t even come up with an original title except for the apparently good midquel for The Ring TwO, I wouldn’t be surprised if the film was made _just_ to tie into Sadako vs Kayako), using negativity to get views like Teen Titans Go and The Emoji Movie, positive press being less important than money, making lazy defenses for scummy crap like “Pride and Accomplishment,” etc.), people are getting fed up with corporate bullshit and making their own forms of entertainment. Views on mainstream media are slowly draining thanks to the internet, streaming, kickstarter and the indie community. Sure, for every “Star Wars Battlefront EA 2,” there’s a “Warframe.” For every “Skyrim remastered,” there’s a “Crash Bandicoot N’ Sane Trilogy.” But for the indie community, for every “The Slaughtering Grounds,” there’s a “The Forest.” For every “Mighty No. 9,” there’s a “Cuphead.” For every “Hunt Down the Freeman,” there’s a “Brutal Doom.” The internet allows us to create whatever we want without the need for censors or dumbing things down as if adults are children who can’t handle violence (though of course, some people take it too far and think that means being as edgy and offensive as possible for the sake of it); Kickstarter and Indiegogo helps us fund our own independent projects without the need for a corporate studio, Patreon keeps our projects afloat. Sure, there’s still scammers, scumbags and dumbasses out there, but just because of a few bad people doesn’t mean we should boycott everything. Hopefully, we’ll be able to make our own content without the fear of studios buying our properties and abusing them to see how much money or toys they could sell. The only thing the mainstream industry in film cares about aside from money are: playing it safe, ripping off popular trends, sequel baiting, not trying new things and spectacles over substance. Aside from big name franchises and spectacles, the mainstream entertainment industry is a bit obsolete and the internet reveals stories behind the scenes that wouldn’t have become public otherwise unless if it was something big. While he was only talking about the mainstream news media and not the mainstream entertainment industry _in general,_ they _do_ have very similar issues, I’ll leave you with a quote by Mr. Enter from his “Homer Badman,” review “I can’t wait ‘till they’re as dead as print media!”
(Language warning)
disgusting...I'm almost in tears because of the shit that these people have been through. The most disgusting shit I've seen from ANY mainstream network. They better start pulling their heads out of their asses soon and get their shit together. And people say TTG airing is a problem. This needs as much attention as it can get
Also THANK the sins of past classics she's gone I vote Stephen Hillenburg as new president of Nickelodeon who's with me
Tbh I would love for that to happen but judging by the fact that he has ALS and it's not really known on if he's recovering or not, I doubt that it could last.
EveryVillainAteNoodles (E.V.A.N) I forgot about that thanks you think if Butch Hartman came back he could be president of Nickelodeon
No he shouldn't butch hartman dosnet have any experience being a presidnet
Yeah you're right but do you think the new president Will Make Nickelodeon great like it was a decade ago
EveryVillainAteNoodles (E.V.A.N) hopefully he's recovering, because I saw him at some award shows, and he looks fine
Making Fiends... I miss that show so much.
I feel so bad for the Making Fiends creator. I liked the premise of the show and I totally forgot about it. It's so sad that she can't even continue with her own creation.
The thing about Making Fiends really pisses me off, Because that show was really good.
Hopefully whoever steps up to be president for Nick will be able to fix Nickelodeon's problems.
Also, they said she was stepping down, she was actually fired behind the scenes due to a number of decisions.
Content Cop: Nickelodeon
If there's one thing to take from what Nickelodeon did here, it's this. DON'T trust "tight knit industries" that thrive on secrecy and don't share their business practices because 9 times out of 10 they're hiding something for a reason. The animation industry has serious problems with the John K. situation being the worst among them in my opinion. Remember this is an industry that "knew for years" that John K. groomed underage girls as a sexual predator, and most didn't speak up in fear of losing their careers. It appears that most animators are a group of "professionals" that I don't want to be associated with, and as someone who has dealt with a toxic workplace, if I saw anything of a John K. magnitude I would immediately notify the authorities and give my two weeks notice. As far as the Union busting thing, well welcome to America land of unfettered capitalism and income-inequality. Social democracy and Bernie Sanders are popular for a reason. It just makes me so angry that something which is supposed to be creative and like a family is far from it in reality and honestly makes the message of shows like "The Loud House" to be nothing more than contrivances or even outright lies. No more NDAs, no more "whisper networks", and honestly no more scummy companies like Nickelodeon. Cable TV just needs to end.
That would explain everything going on with Nickelodeon after their Orlando studio closed down in 2005! Cyma Zarghami did incidentally became president of Nick around that point too.
Those Dominican Republic trends, man.
Running a cable TV network is getting harder than it used to be. Streaming media and digital broadcasting are where it's at...
Never clicked on a video so fast from you. I've always heard thing's about this president so, oh boy, this should be something.
Nick Jr shows were also screwed over. Peter Rabbit(which initally aired with decent times) has screwed within months barely aired on the main channel and aired mostly on Nicktoons and at timeslots where kids would be sleeping or at school. Wallykazam was also screwed over airing it entire second season in canada months before it aired in the U.S and was canceled after two seasons. Julious Jr was burned off with invisible advertising and Max and Ruby airing no reruns on the main channel because of nickelodeons gloating over "Paw Patrol" and Blaze both primarly designed to sell toys. just more examples of shows that suffered under Cyma
I didn't even think that Nick Jr. was affected.
Oh and Thomas the Tank Engine was screwed over at Nickelodeon as well only airing for a month or so before being pulled. and the aforementioned Max and Ruby aired at 7 30 with no repeats.
in live action 100 things to do in high school was screwed over and legendary dudas aired only 6 episodes before being canned. TMNT did not air reruns on the main channel and the entire final season except for the finale premiered on Nicktoons. the Dreamworks shows were also screwed over burning over the remaining episodes of Kung Fu Panda, and Pinguins on Nicktoons while Make it Pop got three seasons solely because of a record deal and EWW extremly cheap to make got 4 seasons in barely a year
More evidence of Nickelodeons Cruelty to Creators
Amber Montana star of Haunted Hathaways tweeted that she was practically ignored by the network. ignoring her for two side characters in the advertising and barely even hinted at
Nickelodeon quickly ordered forty episodes of Sam and Cat without giving anyone the chance to negociate contracts. The schudlue was gruelling for everyone on the cast and crew. Even worse was that when Jeannette Macurdy asked for time off to grieve her mothers death but they refused to do so.(also Arania was paid more than Jeannette despite both being costars)
Executives demanded double the amount of episodes of Naked Brothers Band from 13 episodes to 60 episodes in ONE SEASON!!! especially for a cast that mainly consisted of grade schoolers and high schoolers. Polly Draper the creator refused citing a previous agreement that the shooting schedule would not interfer with their schoolwork. the executives refused and canned the show.
Micah is right this treatment did occur in Live Action Shows. this is only a fraction of what has happened at Nickelodeon.
I meant that Peter Rabbit was screwed over and aired on Nick Jr not Nicktoons
She's the reason why Nick is making a lot of misses
All these buisness practices are disgusting, but Nickelodeon is one of the worst examples of this. VERY scummy company. In the end, it's all about their merchandise and the money. They don't care at all about the kids, driving away their viewership, or even if their ratings dropped dramatically just as long as they role in enough money every year which is BS. I normally don't like saying thing's like this about people, but Cyma got what she deserved. When she took Herb's job in 2006, the network at the time was still in a place full of endless possibilities. Flashforeword 12 year's later and she damaged the entirety of what the network stands for to the point where it might not ever recover nor even be the same again. With her leaving, nobody is sure where the company can go from here. It can either go up and open the doors for a new future, or if they get a new president, it would worry me that the new president could "very possibly" more than likely just continue doing the same practices Cyma did when she was president. The fact that she's pushed away so many executives and writers away from their network even before she became president is disheartening and depressing. And I'm fairly sure it isn't just her to blame, The company in general has mistreated so many of their shows, and even worse, by not making them very available either, and most of it is her fault with bad practices. She did away with so many shows, turned away Adventure Time and Phineas & Ferb for Fanboy and Chum Chum (For 2 seasons) and yet gave a crappy 5 minute flash RUclips cartoon like Breadwinners a show that didn't even have a million views mind you. Gave internet sensation Fred 3 movies and 2 sitcoms, all of this which bombed heavily by people and critics, and kind of even ruined his RUclips reputation. Overrelied on cookie cutter sitcoms/generic kiddy spinoff cartoons instead of actually finding high fresh new shows. Relies on cringy memes/gross humor to look edgy and cool for the kids. Did away from all the game shows, let Fairly Oddparents go on for year's without any reason or demand from fans, to the point where the damage became unreedeemable by adding so much unneeded characters. Overrelied on Dan Schneider. Changed the logo entirely. And probably worst of all, she overexposed Spongebob on the network so much to the point where the show now is just the networks sole religion with the show naturally getting worse overtime (although it has gotten a little better lately). To me, besides very few exceptions, the Network to me has been in a very crappy state ever since the decade first began and it's been that way since, and it's not my opinion or nostalgia, the feedbacks and the decline in ratings show ( Honestly, I think the network is in even worse state now than it was back in the early-mid 2010's, those shows were bad but at least there was more variety to choose from back than besides just endless Loud House and SpongeBob reruns ). They haven't had a single major hit in year's that came close to SpongeBobs success until The Loud House came along in 2016 ( I Carly, Victorious, Korra, FOP, and a few other's did see some success but never got the hype like mcjaggernaut SpongeBob ) and even then, they always went back to ignoring other programs like Harvey Beaks, Welcome To The Wayne, and Bunseun Is A Beast. I so agree, Loud House was VERY lucky to get some spotlight. I feel so sorry for Micah and Greenblatt for all the horrendous shit they've been through with this horrid woman and this network ( and that's something I believe shouldn't have to ever say about someone who provides you with entertainment ), how hard they worked on these shows for year's and how the networks mistreaded them and never gave their shows a chance. And it sucks that they can't get their shows back either which is completely unfair. With all this, It seems like Cyma really went out of her way to intentionally sabotage the network from a once praised, respected business that offered high quality variety and greately wanting to challenge people of all sorts of backgrounds with imaginative animation and fun sitcoms, into just another ultimate mediocre/shitty daytime network that is now only something just for the little kids to watch and keep them quiet. It's sad, and I just hope the company is heading in a better future. Wow, 2018 so far is REALLY becoming the unraveling point for Nickelodeon. First with Butch Heartman leaving. Than Dan Schneider being let go. Now the president has stepped down ! It'll really be interesting the areas Nickelodeon will be heading to in the next few year's.
Honestly while ratings were on decline I think an important factor was shitty business practices than it was cordcutting
I haven't liked Nick for years. They don't know what they are doing over there. At least cartoon network had regular show, adventure time, Steven universe etc. Also, it's like Nick didn't see the success of Disney and their recent success with not only live action shows but ANIMATION. Such Gravity falls and star vs the forces of evil.
Jory Porteous well I have to argue. While CN had those aforementioned shows, it has its fair share of faults: CN real, as well as the cancellation of a bunch of the old shows, TTG overshadowing other cartoons, and the fact that the reboots (well except for Samurai Jack, then again it's a continuation). And Nick had its good points like 90's are all that/Nick Splat, Invader Zim movie, Rocko movie, Hey Arnold Jungle Movie, and some other stuff. Disney, I don't really watch it as much as Nick and CN so I don't know.
Solomon Addison Disney Channel has been improving lately. Andi Mack is acclaimed by critics and viewers. Raven's Home, the sequel and spin-off of That's So Raven, is enjoyable. They moved DuckTales to the network from Disney XD. Star vs. the Forces of Evil and Milo Murphy's Law will be moving soon. Big City Greens looks promising.
I just really want my Nickelodeon back. (Crying)
Nick:sees good show
Ema: no no good show play with this bad show
Nick:sees good show
Ema: ok you can have it (takes it away after 10 seconds)
Nick: is sad
Ema: thats because there are not enough live action shows
Most ambitious crossover ever. Great expose video and probably you guys should do a content cop like videos towards animations and their creators.
Who knows, I told PieGuy any time he wants to collab again I am down
TRAFON man this scandal giving me vibes like what happened with Channel Awesome and for 18 years and older, an escort scandal that someone that I know covered it at that same time that Change the Channel was happening back in April.
god, I feel bad for Mika. I hope he gets the rights to his creation back.
Ummmm Dan Schnider is definitely guilty. It's not a rumor at all, it's an open secret. Watch Jamie Dlux's videos on it.
I really appreciate you putting up a warning for strong language, as I try to keep what I listen to below R or M.
"He also wrote for the video game Skullgirls"
*burst through wall*
"I HEARD SKULLGIRLS! WHAT'S HAPPENING"
I see you're a man of culture as well
this is stuff that need to be shown to the government and needs to be investigated for unethical business conduct and illegal business conduct.
It’s pretty said that shit like this is happening on the big three networks. Disney is a little more open than they used to be but it’s still not any better. I mean look at Disney XD ALL of their original shows are jumping over to Disney channel and Disneynow.
ZETAboy525 Well that is still Disney.
It's actually the opposite of Nick throwing a show to Nick toons because CD is a smaller channel in less households. Moving most of their stuff to Disney channel is better for those shows
12:04 I can't trust any network president anymore.
Me 50 years from now....
Me: Late 2010's Nickelodeon shows, I remember when they first started dabbing, showed shitty live action shows and took duck lipped selfies......*I'VE ALWAYS HATED IT!!!!!!!*
Man, I wish I had known about this back when I reviewed Constant Payne years ago...
It's not your fault, no one had known what was going on.
Eye popping stuff
I never thought I would say this but Vailskibum please do a video on this
I'm glad that she left because this will mean the return of the Nicktoons era (Nickelodeon's golden era).
But what if the person that replaces Cyma is not better?
But yeah, let's hope the future of Nick is better then the present.
And they said that Infinity War was the greatest crossover ever
No video has ever terrified me more for the future of animation, than this video here. Animation is my life, and cartoons are my outlet and escape from my depression. For the last 23 almost 24 years I have relied on Nick, CN, and Disney Channel to provide me my daily medicine. And now I fear my last shining light is about to be dimmed. TN is a few years away from death, NT is a shell f its original self, DXD is signing off for good on New Years Day at 1 AM, and now the main channels are failing. I am absolutely terrified and saddened. Any words of encouragement or hope, PieGuy? Love your content btw. And sorry for any critical comments that I had directed towards certain videos of yours in the past. I was not in a good place and was going off on everybody's channels and social media. I genuinely do like you and your stuff. Hope to see more of this and your awesome Upfronts in the future.
Thank the Gods we live in a day and age were you can literally make your own cartoon at your home. Couldn't do that 10-20+ years ago. If you have an idea for a cartoon, movie, song, game, etc. go independent because the technology is there for you to do so. Not going to lie, it will be very very difficult, but in the end it will be very rewarding and you'll be glad that you didn't have people in business suits (who have never been artist themselves and don't know or care about the meaning of art and creativity) have complete control over your art and dictate it with an iron fist.
There's nothing wrong with going independent, the technology is there, it's up to you to pursue that and follow your true vision.
I am happy... But the damage to Nickelodeon has already done by her I wasn't aware that Nickelodeon got a new president in 2006... But once you see changes you're gonna see bad things come to the future... And it has came back to her the damages
Waits for CN CEO to step down
Mariobro4 We need a CN rebrand bad. Tired of the check it era
Andre Brooks me too if i was CEO of cartoon network i would 1.bring back the classic cartoons for nostalgia 2.change the bumpers to be more suitable for kids and adults 3.greenlit galactic kids next door to adult swim 4.speaking of adult swim I'll change the times to 10pm and 7am 5.greenlit story driven cartoons 6.eliminate the cartoon network app 7.hire
creators of the cartoons to be writers of greenlited cartoons 8.cancel teen titans go powerpuff girls 2016 and thundercats roar 9.greenlit better reboots
And 10.change the logo back to the classic checkered logo
Number 10? I would prefer the 2004 logo.
polly cipher
Actually, Adult Swim should be more of its own channel called " 'Dult-Toon Network" so it could have so much more. CN having classics from 9-7, evening being prime time, day being a larger variety, and early morning after 7 is just the thing of randomized shows from all over.
Whether you like it or not, TTG is not the absolute worst, but it has outlived its place in ongoing TV.
My intentions:
1. Take the Fictional TV series from the CN Real Era animated, revived, and live properly rather than immediate cancellation (Tower Prep and Unnatural History are the immediate thoughts)
2. Have less straight-up comedy and more serious series (such as Adventure Time, which is both in a sense, as a primary example), but straight-up comedies will be more intelligent
3. Give superhero shows more prevalence and respect (beyond what Batman gets)
4. New logo era is agreed, give it a 2D appearance and not 3D
5. Probably implement some stuff you suggested as well
