Teen Nick
Sunday, August 23, 2009
I am starting to be honest. So, I will tell you my opinion about the N becoming Teen Nick, from the point of view of an almost high schooler.
Honestly? I think they might as well change the name to Tween Nick. That's who is going to eventually start watching it. Whenever something is originally for teens or about teens, tweens are the ones who become obsessed with it. Take High School Musical. It's about High School. But did the high school girls and boys go watch it? No. It was the tweens who made it so popular.
It's not fair. The N is such a wonderful channel. I love Degrassi. I do. I love the Fresh Prince of Bel-air, and That 70's Show. I don't get why they're adding things like iCarly, True Jackson, VP, and Unfabulous. Sure, I like the first two, but would I call them teen shows? No. Do you ever see Degrassi blankets and shoes? Of course not. Those things are targeted toward tweens. Degrassi is obviously not.
My opinion? It's nice that Nick is the chairman, I suppose. As long as he keeps things targeted toward teens, not tweens, I'm happy. But Teen Nick? That is a bad change. My memories of Teen Nick are still scarred by shows that weren't for teens at all. I wish the N wouldn't change. It's wonderful just the way it is.
