The '90s Are All That is a programming block that airs nightly on TeenNick. The block shows requested Nickelodeon shows from the 1990s, airing in a two-hour block running every night from midnight to 2 a.m., with an encore from 2 to 4 a.m.[1][2] The block derives its name and logo from All That, a popular sketch comedy series that ran on Nickelodeon from 1994 to 2005.

The creation of the block, which debuted the night of July 25, 2011 (early July 26), was inspired by a large amount of interest in classic Nickelodeon series by users of social media outlets such as Facebook.[3] From October 7 through October 23, the block aired in an earlier time slot, from 10 p.m. to midnight.[4] Response to the debut was very positive; hash tags pertaining to the block became trending topics on Twitter[5] and the Nielsen Ratings for TeenNick on the debut night increased to between eight and 60 times the ratings TeenNick received in previous weeks, beating numerous higher-profile basic cable programs in the same time slot.[6]

Some of the animated programming that is scheduled to be included in the block in the future was, at the time of the block's launch, already airing in overnight marathons on sister network Nicktoons, a practice that began in summer 2010. The Nicktoons marathons continued alongside The '90s Are All That through August 2011, but have since been removed from the schedule.

Programming

Current programming

Programming that has been scheduled in the block is as follows:[7]

Time Slot Show title Original run The '90s Are All That run
12:00AM All That 1994–2005 July 25, 2011–present
12:30AM Kenan & Kel 1996–2000 July 25, 2011–present
1:00-2:00AM Doug 1991–1994 July 25–September 2, 2011; September 26, 2011–present[8]
1:00-2:00AM Hey Arnold! 1996-2004 September 5–23, 2011; November 30, 2011-present [9]
1:00-2:00AM Rugrats 1991-2004 November 29, 2011-present [10]

All That and Kenan & Kel have been fixtures of the block since its inception, having been on the block every night in their current time slots since the block's debut (with the exception of holiday interruptions [see below] and the first few U-Picks, see below). As of the last week of November 2011, the second hour of the block has been rotating various Nicktoons (Doug, Rugrats and Hey Arnold!) in two-episode blocks.

Note: These are broadcasting dates, which begin at 6am and end 24 hours later.[11]

Special programming

Programming that has aired on the block only in one-off episodes, or that have been scheduled to do so, include the following series (shows set to air in the future are listed with date of next appearance):

U-Pick with Stick (Fridays)

Upick with Stick Stickly

On October 7, 2011, Stick Stickly, who hosted the Nick in the Afternoon block during the mid-90's, returned to host the block on Friday night. The Friday night block revives "U-Pick" from the afternoon block, allowing viewers to vote online to decide which shows they want to see. Stickly often pops out at certain times when a program is airing. For the first several weeks of U-Pick, the ballot included programs that were not in the regular lineup.

Holiday and other specials

Labor Day (September 5, 2011) featured double episodes of Hey Arnold! and Rocko's Modern Life to mark their debut on the lineup.

The weekend of Halloween featured a special edition of U-Pick, in which viewers chose horror-themed shows and specials. The previously lost film Cry Baby Lane, which was aired once on Nickelodeon in 2000, aired on The 90s Are All That on October 31, 2011. While the network stated it was a "write-in candidate," the U-Pick process offers no options for write-ins.

In addition to the U-Pick lineups, The '90s Are All That also scheduled marathons for Thanksgiving week. Programs scheduled for the marathons included Salute Your Shorts, Rugrats, Hey Arnold!, All That, and Kenan and Kel. For the first time in the block's history, all eight slots were filled by different episodes, whereas on the regular schedule, the second two hours repeat the first.

Christmas weekend was marked with "Merry Stickmas", which also included Chanukah and Kwanzaa episodes. The final week of 2011 will feature shows originally featured in the 1995–96 incarnation of SNICK; the December 31 edition will feature the revival of "U-Dip," another Nick in the Afternoon feature, as a parody of the large list of objects dropped on New Year's Eve across the United States.[12]

Former programming

Programming that has previously had a regular part of the schedule on the block, but have since been removed, include the following series. These programs have made occasional reappearances on U-Pick ballots and in holiday special program blocks (see above).

Time Slot Show title Original run The '90s Are All That run
1:00AM Clarissa Explains it All 1991–1994 July 25 – September 2; September 26 – October 6, 2011[13]
1:00AM Rocko's Modern Life 1993–1996 September 5–23, 2011[14]
12:00-1:30AM Are You Afraid of the Dark? 1992–2000 October 28–31,[15] December 26–28, 2011
1:00AM Hey Dude 1989–1991 October 8–November 20, 2011

Future programming

The posting of programming on the Web site was once a regular feature of the block, but has decreased in recent weeks.

Other shows expected to be rotated into the block in subsequent weeks include:[16][17][18][19]
