TeenNick is an American digital cable and satellite television channel formed from the merger of two former programming blocks for teenagers: TEENick on Nickelodeon and The N on Noggin. When it was first announced in March 2009, the channel's name was spelled "TEENick" like the block it was based on. As of 2022, TeenNick primarily features reruns of Nickelodeon's live-action sitcoms and some acquired programs geared towards pre-teens and teenagers, although new originals premiered during 2023 (Mystery).
Nick Cannon, who was the original host of the TEENick block itself in 2001, became the "Chairman of TeenNick" upon the channel's launch in 2009. He had a presence on the network for several years, most notably hosting the music show TeenNick Top 10.
Origins as programming blocks (2001-2009)
TeenNick's name and most of its programming were sourced from Nickelodeon's TEENick block. TEENick was a celebrity-hosted block that premiered on March 4, 2001. TEENick's original host was Nick Cannon (who would eventually become the chairman of the TeenNick channel upon its launch in 2009).
TV channel (2009-present)
TeenNick was the result of the 2009 reshuffling of the Nickelodeon networks, creating NickToons, TeenNick, and the Nick Jr. Channel. When it was first announced in March 2009, the channel's name was spelled "TEENick" like the block it was based on. Sometime between March and September, the spelling was altered. In July 2011, TeenNick began carrying programs originally filmed for high-definition broadcast in a letterboxed format, due to the absence of an HD simulcast feed of the channel. As all Nickelodeon-owned channels do, 16:9 content is carried in a stretched format to fill a 4:3 screen. All programs produced in SD are aired pillarboxed on high definition. Longtime Nickelodeon personality Nick Cannon, who was the original host of the TEENick block itself in 2001, was declared in publicity materials as the "Chairman of TeenNick." He had a presence on the network until 2020, along with new programming exclusive to the network, like TeenNick Top 10 and The Nightlife. Both were music-themed countdown shows. In July 2011, TeenNick started a programming block for Nickelodeon throwbacks named The '90s Are All That, then renamed The Splat in 2015 then NickSplat in 2017. In 2019, it was rebranded as NickRewind. It was discontinued on January 31, 2022. As of 2023, TeenNick is a full 24-hour channel with no programming blocks. As of January 1, 2024, TeenNick fully rebranded to the modern splat look.
