I know what you're thinking. No, this is not a petition. It is a campaign on Facebook that asks you to send letters to Nickelodeon asking for a Nickelodeon channel that airs old Nick shows. It gives the address and everything. This is something that needs to happen. Some of the forumers actually supported this already.

As long as David the Gnome isn't on and Rocko's Modern Life is, I'm in.

So....it's a petition.

And really, I get the sentiment behind it, but I don't think you or anyone else realizes the extreme cost of starting a completely new channel, especially now that Nickelodeon isn't exactly doing that well financially. This is almost 100% guaranteed not to happen. You know what can happen? Buy all the Nickelodeon shows you enjoyed back then on DVD or Blu-Ray and watch them at your leisure.

Here's a thought, how do we get a group of investors together to start a streaming channel playable online and through products like smart tv's, roku, apple tv, game consoles etc. to air these shows? That is a much more viable and or cheaper option and with ads can be easier to make a profit from as well. Thoughts gentleman?

Well have actual network sponsors and regular commercials is far more valuable. I still see no reason for either option. 95% of these shows are readily available to either be bought or streamed legally and cheap. Just do that!
