The Best Nickelodeon Shows of All Time

Listen here, Avatar is and always will be the greatest achievement in nickelodeon's history. Avatar has all of the key components to keeping anyone interested; romance, comedy, action, adventure, chaos, a good protagonist and antagonist, as well as a great plot and story line. This is by far the best show nickelodeon has ever produced. Hopefully the new avatar mini-series will live up to the achievement of the original series. Anyone can watch this television show; child, teen, or even adult. Spongebob in comparison used to be great, but after the movie the level of hilarity decreased and the interest went down. Now I see spongebob as a child specific show rather than a show for any audience. Good luck appealing to 5 year olds Spongebob.

One of the best shows on T.V. you'll find in the USA.

It boasts one of the most original storylines, and captivates kids and adults with the shows' immense world, character development, and good blend of action, comedy, and a touch of romance.

Plus, it simply looks cool!

More creative and emotionally in-depth/involved than any other show Nick's ever produced. I'm glad its getting a sequel series. Legend of Korra coming this November.

This show gives me such an intense feeling in my human belly! The best Nick show ever. Period. It has it all. Comedy, awesome characters, a good story line, and ALIENS! It has had a HUGE impact on everyone, and it has a BIG fan base that still keeps it alive after it being cancelled by Nick (CURSE YOU, HORRIBLE NICK DEMONS! ). IT EVEN HAS IT'S OWN CONVENTION! What other show can say that!?

I believe it deserves an ending! What do you say, fellow human Pig-Smellies? We deserve to find out what happens next! WE ARE ZIM-WORTHY!
INVADER ZIM FOR THE WIN!

I can't believe Invader Zim is #6. I also can't believe Nick cancelled it. WHY!? WHY!? Invader Zim deserves to be #1 and with a crown on top. INVADER ZIM SHALL RULE!

"Vote for me or I'll destroy you"- Zim, Voting of the Doomed

This is the best show in cartoon history! Nickelodeon should BRING IT BACK! It is WAY better then any of the other cartoons you see here! Nick sucks for cancelling Invader ZIM!

%%Invader ROSE, EXTREMELY obsessed fangirl%%

This show USED to be the best show EVER until about 2008 or 2009. If you watch an older episode(example: Squidwards "Best Day Ever" to later episodes(Example: I can't remember the name, but it involved Patrick's cousin coming over), you will definitely see the difference. Pretty sad.

Spongebob is like one of the best T.V. shows in my childhood. It's been around like even more than a decade. All kids & adults really enjoyed it. It's far far far too good to not be number 1. The Spongebob character is super sweet. If you don't even like or love that show you have to be a huge shame on yourself. The greatest show on Nickelodeon. GO SPONGEBOB!

I love Spongebob Squarepants because the T.V. Shows are funny. I especially like it in Spongebob Sqarepants the Movie when Spongebob said, " There's something I need to tell you, " when Mr. Krabs tells Squidward to give Spongebob the place of being manager for the Krusty Krab 2, and Squidward says that after Spongebob's journey, Spongebob realized that what he wanted was not really what he wanted. But then Spongebob said, Are you kidding? I was just gonna say that your zipper was undun. MANGER?! This is the happiest day of my life! Yeah, that part was funny.

I love this show. I use to watch it all the time! Now all these shows are horrible. Spongebob has gotten from funny to disgusting and boring. What happened to the old Nick?

Hey Arnold is so far the best Nicktoon I have ever watched, great characters with great stories. This show is not just plain fun to watch and with heartfelt moments in just about every episode, but it teaches people life lesson like look on the bright side and how young people deal with their problems like friendship, love and others. It brings great memories and has been loved by many kids, teens and even adults around the world. I recommend Nickelodeon bring back Hey Arnold so that every one will know how great this show is!

invader zim? in front of hey arnold? WTF. this is THE best show of nickelodeon of all-time

ICarly is nothing compared to Drake and Josh. Not only are the jokes not funny but also the acting especially Miranda Cosgrove's. She did a great job as Megan but the non-evil role doesn't suit her

By far the best Nickelodeon show ever! Spongebobs right behind it though. Get this to number one guys because I carly is a knock off of this show

All of the T.V. Shows on the channel are good, but those compared to Drake & Josh they are pieces of Poop. DRAKE & JOSH IS THE BEST!

This needs to be like the number one... This one is the legend and then spongebob, this is what we watched as young children and it was one of the creative shows ever.

Wow the reason why this is in 4th place is because the voting is mostly coming from younger kids who weren't around for rugrats. I really don't see how avatar is number one I watched that show once and I couldn't believe how boring it was.

I'm 11 years old and I used to LOVE the rugrats! I loved every character on that show. The rugrats was a classic nick show. Tommy and friends always found a way to make me laugh.

HELLO THIS ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS ON EARTH WHY NOT #1!? CAN YOU PLEASE SELECT LIKE ON THIS! I Looked on the worst list and IT WAS THERE! COME ON PEOPLE GIVE ME 1 GOOD REASON WHY YOU HATE THIS SHOW!

I LOVE ICARLY! HOW IS THIS NUMBER SEVEN ON THE LIST?! It cracks me up and actually makes me happy! Everything about this show makes me laugh! IT SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE!

I love icarly because carly has a lot of zestie attitued and sam is so funny and up bet and fredie is just well fredie I watch it every time its on T.V. and if not I watch it on my laptop I LOVE ICARLY

Big time rush is the best band program and they could create in the history of the world.. I'ma fan of carlos and james (Jarlos) and tambein and kendall logan (kongan).. Are perfect in order to love them and I hope to meet them someday I LOVE THEM! Words can not describe the thrill of a real rusher!

Big time rush is the best show in the history of nickelodeon! Boo one direction, go big time rush! It is a beautiful and wonderful show. And, it is quite entertaining

Big time rush is the best ever not avatar. I think it's going to win best show next year. I am the biggest james fan go james!

+5This show was the kids version of SNL and it was one of the best kid shows of all time it led the way for many of the stars that came from that

+1Miss that show I loved it so much!
i wish it was still on, everybody that was on that show are now big stars! :-o

+1Is this the show with the on person from hairspray and it also had the drake and josh people well if it is it was pretty funyy

This show is amazing! Worth watching as spongebob.. Thumbs UP!

Can't believe it's not 1~~... Come on guys, this is epic! In fact, I'd not in calling it the best Nick show EVER. But this show is amazing!
Thumbs UP!

this cartoon was one of my 3rd favorite show other than rugrats
and catdog

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide and Drake and Josh are both my favorite shows on Nickelodeon! I really wish they continued both. But I can't imagine Daniel Curtis Lee, Drake Bell and Josh Peck. They look so old now....

An incredible show, both funny and actually very insightful. And Moze has to have been one of the prettiest girls on tv period

Oh GOD! That was really the best show ever! I din't Have NICK at home but my granny did so I always watched it when I visited her!

Victorious Is Awesome I know It's new but some of the characters like Cat is hilarious

I think victorious is one of the best show because it is very funny and interesting to watch. Please continue doing it!

This show is the one of the best I evre seen like drake and josh and I carly I love it. you all rock victorius.

Best Nickelodeon show ever bar none. This show was funny, clever, and had an adult feel to it. Season One was just released, pick it up and see for yourself! (ICarly belongs in the Top Ten worst ever)

Best show on this list, 2nd is Ren and Stimpy, I can't forget the high five of doom

JN should be at least in the top 5. It was once Nick's highest rated shows

This show was great. It such a great plot and all the characters were well designed. On top of that it was completely unique and had stories that haven't been used in a million shows before it.

I'm surprised that Jimmy wasn't at least in the top 10. As another commenter already mentioned, it was one of Nick's highest-rated shows, plus the 2001 movie is the only animated Nickelodeon film to receive an Oscar nomination. The show is also missed by many fans.

+17One of the only Nick shows that kids and teens could both like and relate to. I consider it one of the last good Nick shows.

+3Danny Phantom pretty much owned my adolescence. It helped me realize that it's okay to be different. That you'll still have people who love you no matter what happens.
Besides that, it was a show with a creative story, amazing characters with much more development than I've seen in a cartoon before, and it was funny to boot. Danny Phantom will always be my favorite Nick show.

+1I THINK YOU RIGHT NICK SHOULD MAKE MORE EPISODES OF DANNY PHANTOM
IT WAS MY FAVORITE SHOW EVER AND STILL IS.

What? iCarly is better than the greatest Nick show of all time?

Happy happy joy joy!
#1!

dudeguyman

The original, not Spike TV's horrible attempt at remaking it!

tarot_contralto

I was so upset when they canceled it...

clerkatron

THIS IS A TOP 5 SHOW PERIOD
WHO LOVES ORANGE SODA? WHY?
They got their start on ALL THAT. Which is also a top 5 show!

The best Nick show ever. For proof, watch the episode "3 girls, a guy, and a movie. " I think that's the title, may be slightly diff. On youTube.

Best show ever! With Amanda Bynes! And all those skits! Was such a good show! And I loved the judge judy sketch with the dancing lobsters!

#1 shown in Nick with Rugrats, rocketpower, chalk zone, hey Arnold, Ned spongebob and avatar are the best shows, ohh and Jimmy Neutron^^^^Fairly odd parent, Catdog

When I was little the Amanda show the best of all time

Not only is The Angry Beavers good for Kids, it's also a hilarious show for anyone...

This show was boring and the characters were weird. It would be better if it didn't only involve with just animals

These are so fun! I'm suprised that is not in top 10! They are the best! They should be in top 10 cartoons! The penguins from madagascar rocks!

The Penguins of Madagascar is the best show I have ever scene and am a fan of shows such as Doctor Who, Modern Family, Invader Zim, and Futurama. I think this show has high end humor and jokes that kids and adults will like! I think it is sad that POM does not get the credit it deserves. The characters are wonderful and the actors rock! And they mention things like the Higgs Boson particle. And this is coming from some one who was not a big Madagascar fan.

I love zoey 101 so much. Best show ever. Some of the shows on this site I've never heard but zoey 101 is my fav show of all times. Go zoey, chase, Dana, Nicole, Lola, Logan, Michael, Stacey, Lisa, FireWire, Quinn, James, Vince and so many other people like dean rivers ect.

This should be first whoever put this on bottom and spongebob on top is crazy. Think again dude or dudette whatever.

I watched ungodly amounts of this TV show as a little kid...

If you were into sports at all as a kid this show was amazing. I wish I could have been half as good as otto in sports. Tito and Raymundo were great role model and I wish my parents were as cool as them. This should be in the top 10!

Best show of all time. This should be in the top 5 at least. Who rates these? Whoever rated this 29th needs to be fired.

This show really needs more votes I'll see what I can do to get this show toward the top of the list like it needs to be not this low please people thank celestia this show is awesomer then spongebob

The Fairy Oddparents is one of the best shows ever on Nick. The old e pisodes ar oe a little better, but it is one of the greatest shows of all time. This should be on the top ten at least.

Scared my twelve year-old pants off!

tarot_contralto

How did this get behind iCarly? Obviously you know nothing about the awesomeness of this show.

Are you you afraid of the dark is one of the greatest shows in nick history
nick should show reruns around halloween

Cat Dog... Cat Dog... The wonderful world of the crazy cat dog!
I hope that this was referring to the show cat dog...

It's gonna be like Avatar! so why shouldn't it become one of the best showas on nick? at last it's not one of these non-sense productions which is nick riunning all the time now... so thumbs up for Korra

Ok, I know it hasn't even come out yet, but it's bound to be epic...

Can't wait for it! This I'll be at the top of the list in no time! Hooray for the Avatar!

As told by Ginger is one the best shows on nick! Along with Rugrats and Hey Arnold. I can't believe it is so low. We need to get more older kids to vote up the good shows other then stupid shows like spongebob and Big Time Rush. Come on everybody lets keep the actual good shows alive like All That, Kenan and Kel, Danny Phantom, Fairly Oddparents, The Amanda Show, Doug, and any other show besides the stupid new ones (excluding Dan Scheider shows, He's untouchable! )

-1A very worthwhile and amusing show. Plus, robots! You can never go wrong with robots! And the standard growing up theme, with robots!
Why is it not in the top 20? Is it because people aren't as fond of robots as they are the 90s?! ;-;

-2My Life As A Teenage Robot was a show I grew up with since 3rd grade. When nickelodeon stopped airing it I was torn apart then when nicktoons quit airing it I was completely destroyed.

An amazing teen drama show. Anyone with teennick that doesn't watch this show is missing out. It has everything from interesting and relatable characters to some occasional fun humor and romance. Its far more deep and meaningful than most other shows on nickolodean by far.

I've been a solid Degrassi fan for years. I LOVE DEGRASSI! I've watched every single episode. Even the ones from the 80's. this is a truly amazing show and if you've never seen it I highly suggest you watch every single episode and buy it on itunes or netflix it! You can't instant stream it on Netflix, unfortunately. Degrassi and Hey Arnold are the BEST shows nick has EVER done.

Why isn't this part of the top ten? Unlike most shows on Nickelodeon, this actually has drama. It's the perfect balance between mystery, comedy, and romance. I don't understand how this is number 48 on the list. 0.1~~? Really?

It's a good show everyone! I love it me and my beastie watch it all the time! SIBUNA! (Anubis backwards)
This show yayy

This is the best show ever! I think it gets the kids pumped up because of th mystery and there about to have a seasson 3 too.

How is this show all the way down here?! Doug is like the coolest guy ever.

This was the best show ever. I am so mad they stopped airing it. Amanda was halarious with ryan. The teacher was by far the funniest. Mr. Madigan was also extremely chill but crazy at the same time. I loved true and jimmy and lulu. Stupid bucket and skinner took its place. I miss the show so much

I bet most of you kids have never even heard of this classic. Well, go right now and look it up. You won't be disappointed.

This show I liked since it wasn't based in any ordinary average suburban town. It was based in San Francisco(which is a very interesting city by the way).

This show was very underrated. Way better then barnyard fanboy and planet sheen

I loved this show when it was on. I was also a fan of endurance, and when that canceled, this was the next best thing. When this got canceled I alost cried. It was the fourth best reality show I've ever seen.

This show was amazing I always voted for the orange team! Used to come home every day after school and watch then they took it off!

Love melissa joan Hart. Period. She's an amazing actress.

Melissa Joan Hart before her "Sabrina" days.

tarot_contralto

This is, without a doubt, the most intelligent show for children in history.

tarot_contralto

I love naked brothers band specially nat and alexx love the and yeah I kinda like rosalina to

This is an awesome show. I don't really know why everyone hates them so much. They are really cute, friendly, and really funny. I act a little bit like them, but I'm not an idiot. The show is creative. Its unordinary which is good. We don't need to have everything be the same thing. This is actually one of my favorite shows. And I'll feel really sad if I don't see them again. Please keep this show on even for the other people who do enjoy it. Also we don't really find a lot of people like this which is happy and funny. Now these days, most people are not happy and mean. Sometimes it's ok to be a little funny sometimes. Also sometimes funny is stupid, but it's so crazy. I love it. Other people should not listen to the people who are doing the rants and other stuff about not having any plot and other things.. The creators have great ideas. It's good to be new. So anyway this show is cool. I call myself fan girl. + I am happy all the time and there is nothing wrong with that. So keep it aired. Please? Thanks. Love y'all!

WHY IS THIS CRAP HERE IT'S THE WORST SHOW IN THE UNIVERSE I'D RATHER BUST MY HEAD OPEN ON A DOORKNOB THEN WATCH THIS HORRIBLE JUNK THE CHARACTERS LOOK LIKE REJECTS FROM A HORROR MOVIE AND ALL THEY TALK ABOUT IS POOPING AND GROSS STUFF LIKE THAT I HATE HATE HATE THAT SHOW SHOULD BE BURNED WITH FIRE!

Goog show man. Get it to the top. Seriously, although it's really cheesy still good show. I mean with the whole "perfs" thing. I mean that doesn't exist in real life, now one does that. And they can't just hang out in a janitors closet. But still I like this and spongebob. But not new spongebob. New spongebob sucks. But until like 2009, spongebob was the best show by far. Great plots, and funniness, with some pop-culture references that little kids wouldn't get so I don't know why it's in there. Anyway How to Rock is a good show. DAmnit I should've voted 4 spongebob this will never be in the top. Oh well.

Okay why isn't this in the top? I know this show just started but so far this show is actually really funny. This show is way better than Victorious. Don't get me wrong I don't mind Watching Victorious and this show has its funny moments but the show How to Rock so far all the episodes are really funny. Watch every episode of this show and you'll be laughing your head off not like Victorious and their non funny scenes and random scenes with fake laughing in the background with their non funny characters. I'm sorry to say this but Cymphonique beats Victorious big time!

Comedy, characters, and storyline are unique. Especially Freddy and Peck scenarios. Can't stop watching this show

Brainsurge is cool about the puzzles and knockout round. Even Family Brainsurge. To bad its not in nickelodeon anymore.

I really wish this show had lasted longer. It was really good.

tarot_contralto

po is my favorite character because he's a dragon warrior makes me want to get in that show.

I Lmao even if I'm watchinq an episode that I watched before... And they have other animes characters too

rebeLLious

you might not remember this show but it was funny especially the character gram gram

I loved tuning in every show to see the new weirdness for that eppy. They had a great imagination, when it came to the weirdness. I wish they'd bring that show back.

Awesome show with Maddison Pettis... Should play it more because it really rocks, love it to bits... Gonna be like Drake and Josh...
