Shows include: The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Kenan & Kel, ALF, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie. It replaced the programming block "Fantabuloso", which aired series aimed at teenagers and was very similar to the U.S. Nicklelodeon flagship's now-defunct TEENick block.

Until July 4, 2009, the block aired seven nights a week. From July 5, 2009-April 2010, Nick Hits, a block featuring classic Nicktoons and Nick live-action series, took over the nighttime schedule on weekends. In April 2010, Nick at Nite began airing on weekends once again, with the addition of classic Nicktoons to the lineup. Because of this, Clarissa Explains It All, Happy Days, The Addams Family and The Munsters were removed from the schedule, as two former Nickelodeon sitcoms were added: Zoey 101 and Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide.
