Nick Jr reverting to commercial-free status again

[angie2010]

On September 2nd, 2003 at 9AM Eastern Time, Nick Jr launched its Playalong season with graphics and music, along with its 2-hour Playalong block
that Nick Jr has to offer, but not only in New York, but across the USA, Nick Jr's Playalong season was a huge success and our big preschool audience
have tuned in to Nick Jr for the best shows for preschoolers and the live playalong block that keeps playing alot and serves anything but preschool,
that's why Nick Jr was a programming block on Nickelodeon, including Dora the Explorer, Blue's Clues, Go Diego Go, and many others that agreed
to everyone have a great time, and as Nick Jr rebrands in October 2004 with Piper O'Possum, it was gone and live forever, and most of you here
at Nick Jr have to bring back the 2003-04 season for your preschooler and to our parents who watch us over the past few years have a big time
for us to bring it back for the new audience for preschoolers and their parents, and otherwise, Nick Jr is still The Smart Place to Play, we're
bringing back our commercial-free environment, and NickMom will become a 24-hour digital cable/satellite network in November, so Nick Jr
will continue to provide commercial-free preschool programming for the little ones ages 2 to 6, along with original programming and short
features for the preschoolers you want to see, well, we have official as the ratings are going up once again, Nick Jr will bring back the 2003-04 season
starting this November along with the return of former Nick Jr programs and Nick Jr's Play Along which will be once again co-hosted by
Travis Guba (Zach), Hillary Hawkins (Robyn), The Feetbeats, and the new look Lilly, all part of Nick Jr's return of its commercial-free environment.

Also, the new Nick Jr will introduce 2 new Feetbeats puppets named Greeny, a green female zerba, and Daisy, a red and yellow male lion
in addition to the 4 feetbeats: Pinky, Lefty, Tube, and Smelly.

Along with 2 new Feetbeats, starting in January 2013, the Little Creatures puppets will get their own half-hour show on Nick Jr called
"Little Creatures and Friends" which will offer the adventures of all the Little Creatures puppets and it will co-produced by Nick Jr and Sesame Workshop.

Also included are 13 new shows coming your way also in January 2013 on Nick Jr, there are "The Shiny Show", "The Roly Mo Show", "Fimbles",
"In The Night Garden" (which was last seen on The Hub), "Blue and Pals", "Animal Jam", "The Little Ducks", "Rubberdubbers" (which was last
seen on PBS Kids Sprout), the commercial-free kid-friendly version of "NickMom Night Out", "Dora's Explorer Girls", "NiNi's Treehouse", "The
Big Time with Holly", and "Raggs Kids Club Band".

And also, Nick Jr's 1994-2004 mascot Face will make its return on television in his hybird 1994-2003/2003-04 style introducing programming on the Nick Jr channel.

Also in addition to the Nick Jr channel, there will be a live stage show in Benton, Arkansas called "Nick Jr's Playalong: Live on Stage!" which will
bring you games, stories, songs, and so much fun all hosted by Zach, Robyn, the Feetbeats, and Lilly, along with all your favorite Nick Jr
friends, this live stage show will take place from October 26th, 2012 to January 30th, 2013 in Benton.

While over on the Nick Jr channel, we will launch a nighttime block for both kids and parents. It's called "Nick Jr. Bedtime". A block will air nightly
from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. Eastern and will consist shows like Max and Ruby, Oswald, Jack's Big Music Show, Oobi, Blue's Clues, Pocoyo, Little Bill,
Little Bear, Blue's Room, Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, and many more. It will have two puppet hosts named Holly (a female bunny; which will
also host The Big Time with Holly) and Starfall (a dog) alongside the Feetbeats, 15-second promotional spots, tips on sleeping, brushing your teeth (etc.) and
short-form programming. Nick Jr. Bedtime is meant for families to calm down after a long day of playing. It will compete with Sprout's The Good Night Show
and Disney Junior's Night Light.

And as Nick Jr is returning to commercial-free status in November, we will debut new re-created 3D graphics from the 2003-04 season along
with new voiceover announcers such as Mitch Craig, Jim Culter, Scott Chapin, Charlie Van Dyke, Roger Thompson, Doug Paul, Beau Weaver,
and the channel's current female promo voice.

Also, Nick Jr will begin using VDS and CGS graphics for live local news, traffic, weather, sports, business, elections, lottery, live cameras, and
what's on the channel along with other cable networks today or tonight, directing from VDS' GameTrak Channel, NewsTicker Suite, and Promotor,
along with CGS' NewsChief HD, ScoresNow, WxDataCaster, LogoFX, CloseNow, Mercury, and ELECTIONDAY, and send it to the cable headend through
the cable and satellite providers that receive Nick Jr via the C-band satellite.

And by the way, Nick Jr will no longer air limited advertising on November 5th due to being reverted to commercial-free status and also
NickMom will go 24/7 as a seperate digital cable/satellite channel on November 10th as well.

And of course, NickMom will left the air as a programming block at 11:15PM EST during a episode of NickMom Night Out due to Nick Jr
going back to commercial-free status on November 5th and Nick Jr will then join Pocoyo in progress because of NickMom's move to a 24/7 channel.

Here's a step-by-step rundown of how Nick Jr will return to 24-hour programming on November 10th:
1. Segment 2 of a episode of NickMom Night Out (cut-off)
2. Cut to black
3. NickMom sign-off
4. About a half of a Tickety Toc promo
5. Cut to black for 5 seconds
6. About the first second of a Nick Jr The Smart Place to Play promo

WAYYYYYY TOO MUCH TIME ON YOUR HANDS

ikr just like that time i made a japanese anime schedule based on animax and funimation channel on Excel.

TBH just like when I made pgweb... I should have spent the time a bit more productively and then maybe I'd have more spare time now

I would argue that pgweb was a lot more awesome than anything in this thread.

[valerielundberg]

Hey sorry - came here from the NickMom protesters pages. Can I ask where the info came from? Got a lot of anti and pro-NickMom people who would love official verification of this.
