just pondering what most of my generation as kids watched more often back when we were kids. I personally watched Cartoon Network due to Toonami consuming 4 hours of my life per day ever since i was about 5. what about you?

Nick. I didn't get CN until a while after I started watching TV, so I was already hooked on Nick.

I am from the UK, and we didn't get Nick until 93 or something through Sky, sorry if I wasn't able to witness the almighty 'golden age' of Nickelodeon.

Ken and Kel started later than 93. Quite a bit so. REAL Nick is shows like: You can't do that on Television, Double Dare, What Would You Do, Wild and Crazy Kits, Salute your Shorts, Are you Afraid of the Dark, Legend of the Hidden Temple, GUTS, Rocko, Ren & Stimpy, etc. etc. Kenan and Kel came into the scen upon Nicks decline in the mid/late 90's with shows like Alex Mac and Allen Strange. :?

It's literally the only show they have now. Like as in, that all they run in every slot ALL DAY LONG. If you check the TV guid it's just Spongebob all day. Same with Cartoon Network now though. The only show they run all day is that crappy Ben10 show untill Adult swim is on.

50/50 split on the dot. CN had some awesome regular shows, like dexter, johnny bravo, etc. But it shined most with it's series epic shows, like Swat Kats, Thundercats, and, of course, ReBoot. Also, DBZ had my attention for a while.

Nick as a whole had a lot of great shows. None of them like ReBoot, but all of them could be watched over and over.

I probably spent more time on Nick, but CN (when they had those epic shows) had my time held with an iron grip. When I was 8, there was no way on earth anyone was going to stop me from watching Swat Kats.
