It appears that

Of U-Pick" during that week, only the first half of the listed

If you want to see
the Nicktoons channel's schedule at Nick.com (the only one that has
episode titles),
click here; note that the schedule is for the Eastern time
zone - subtract one hour for Central, two for Mountain, and three
for Pacific
Also, if you live in
the Eastern or Central time zones (and possibly in some parts of the
Mountain time zone as well), "Nick Too" repeats the entire
Nickelodeon lineup on a three-hour delay. (In the rest of the
USA, including all of the Pacific time zone, Nick Too is simply the
same thing that Nickelodeon is showing, at the same time.)
WHAT'S NEWS? -
Last Updated March 13 |
Apparently, while all of the season 1 through 4 episodes air
on Nicktoons, the following season 5 episodes do not (at
least not yet): Suspended / Ernie In Love, Summer Love,
Gerald's Game / Fishing Trip, Married, The Racing Mule /
Curly's Girl, Timberly Loves Arnold / Eugene, Eugene!, Ghost
Bride / Gerald vs. Jamie O, A Day In The Life Of A
Classroom / Big Bog's Crisis, and Phoebe's Little Problem /
Grandpa's Packard. (Well, "The Journal" doesn't air
either, but that's not surprising as only one show longer
than an hour has ever aired on Nicktoons as far as anyone
can remember (the As Told By Ginger Nick Flick
"Foutleys on Ice". As for "April Fools' Day", I'll let
you know after the April 1 schedule appears.)
|
The "early morning classics" are coming back, starting March
14 (note that some shows are on at 6:00 AM and others at
6:30 AM):
3/14 (6:30 AM) - Butt Ugly Martians
3/15 (6:00 AM) - Animaniacs
3/17 (6:30 AM) - Oh Yeah! Cartoons
3/18 (6:30 AM) - Caitlin's Way
3/22 (6:30 AM) - The Angry Beavers
3/23 (6:00 AM) - Invader Zim
3/25 (6:30 AM) - Clueless

Guess what - Nickelodeon decided they would rather air an
episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender rather than
"Big Gino / Jamie O in Love" on Nickelodeon...
It did, however, did air on Nicktoons
as scheduled, so it's not a situation where there is
something in the episode Nickelodeon doesn't want kids to
see (the way an episode of Rocko's Modern Life is not
aired because it involves a plane crash).
Here's a list of reasons I can think of that some
parent might have complained:
1. Gino perpetuates the "Italian-Americans are all in
the Mafia" stereotype.
2. Sid is given a "swirly" (they put his head in a
toilet and flushed it); they don't show it happening (it is
behind a closed toilet stall at school when it happens, and
they never show the picture they take of Sid when it
happens), but they don't want any kids getting any ideas
anyway.
3. The "hobby horse's head in the bed" scene might be
considered just a bit too disturbing.
4. There's a scene where Sid is sitting on a toilet -
he still has his pants on, but still, I can see some parents
freaking out over somebody just sitting on a toilet.
(There was a time when even the sound of a flushing toilet
on TV was frowned upon.)
|
I have added a link (below the schedule grid) to see the
Nicktoons channel's schedule, in case you want to know which
episodes are going to air on Nicktoons. (The show's
current schedule is: weekdays at 9:30 AM (Eastern), repeated
at 1:30 PM, Saturdays at 7:00 PM, and Sundays at 3:00 PM and
3:30 PM (two different episodes), repeated at 8:00 PM and
midnight.) Note that there is only one "feed" for
Nicktoons, so subtract one, two, or three hours in the
Central, Mountain, or Pacific time zones.
|
Even better news - remember when I said the show was moving
from 6:30 AM to 3:30 PM beginning February 14?
Nickelodeon has moved the start of the new time back to
February 7. Here's what appears to be the new weekday
schedule:
6:30 AM - Rocket Power
7:00 AM - The Fairly Oddparents
7:30 AM - Jimmy Neutron
8:00 AM - Rugrats
8:30 AM - SpongeBob SquarePants
Nick Jr. on from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM
2:00 PM - Rugrats
2:30 PM - Rugrats
3:00 PM - CatDog
3:30 PM - Hey Arnold!
4:00 PM - The Fairly Oddparents
4:30 PM - Jimmy Neutron
5:00 PM - SpongeBob SquarePants
5:35 PM - My Dad The Rock Star
6:10 PM - U-Pick
6:45 PM - Rugrats (half-episode)
7:00 PM - Jimmy Neutron
7:30 PM - The Fairly Oddparents
8:00 PM - SpongeBob SquarePants
On Fridays, the schedule changes from 8-10 PM;
unfortunately, Nick.com no longer lists what is on after 8
PM, so their last-second schedule changes will come as a
surprise, although expect the one and only airing each week
of My Life As A Teenage Robot to be on Friday nights.
(As for other shows: The Wild Thornberrys is still on
Saturday and Sunday at 6:30 AM; As Told By Ginger is still
nowhere to be found; ChalkZone seems to have disappeared
from the schedule as well, at least for now, although
somebody at Frederator said that it will be on every weekday
afternoon starting right around when summer vacation
begins.)
|
No, they're not getting rid of the U-Pick Arnold
half-episodes permanently; it's just for one week.
(This could be bad news for us Teenage Robot fans;
usually, airing new episodes of a show five nights in a row
is a sign that Nickelodeon is getting tired of it - this is
what happened to CatDog and The Wild Thornberrys before they
stopped making new ones. It's bad enough they replaced
it on Saturday and Sunday mornings with All Grown Up!.)
|
Serves me right for thinking Nickelodeon wouldn't pull a
last-second switch. Apparently, Arnold isn't on the
weekend afternoon schedule after all, as Nick has replaced
the listed afternoon lineups with marathons. (Then
again, there will probably be at least one Arnold marathon
in the next few months.)
|
Grandpa wins an Emmy! Well, it was for Grampa Simpson,
and Homer, and Krusty the Clown, and I think Barney and Kent
Brockman may have been in there as well...anyway, Dan
Castellaneta has won his third Emmy (his first since 1993)
for his voiceover work on The Simpsons (specifically,
the episode with Krusty's bar Mitzvah). (And notice
that "Grampa Simpson" is spelled with an M, while "Arnold's
Grandpa" is spelled with an ND; that's not a typo.)
|
There is an Arnold connection to the 2004 Emmy awards;
Derek Drymon (first season storyboard artist, and second
season storyboard director) and Juli Hashiguchi (first
season animation director, credited as "Juli
Murphy-Hashiguchi" back then) were nominated as part of the
staff for the SpongeBob SquarePants episode
"SpongeBob B.C.", which was nominated in the Animated
Program (One Hour or Less) category. Don't go looking
for this category during the main Emmys broadcast on
September 19, as it is part of the awards given out the
previous week.
However, the Emmy went to Cartoon
Network's Samurai Jack

If you're interested in getting Nickelodeon to become
interested in a second Hey Arnold! movie, somebody
came up with this idea: if as many people as possible write
letters (that's letters, and not E-mails) to Nickelodeon (at
1515 Broadway, New York, NY 10036) asking that they consider
working on "The Jungle Movie", and (here's the interesting
bit) they all do it pretty much at the same time,
perhaps Nickelodeon might take more notice to the fan
interest. The idea is to do it during the first week
of each month. (Of course, if Nickelodeon gets a flood
of letters at the same time saying the same thing, there's
always the chance that they'll think that it's not "general
fan interest" but an organized effort of some sort, but at
least they know there's some interest.)
Here's the
"Save Hey Arnold" site link:

If you think you
hear somebody who sounds like Curly on CBS, you may be
right: Michael Welch (Curly in "Curly's Girl") is one of the
stars of Joan of Arcadia.
|
Good news for all of you who have asked about contacting the
show's music composer, Jim Lang, or wondered if he had a
website: he does now, at
http://www.knobworld.com, and it includes some of his
music (not just Hey Arnold! tunes, either) and an
E-mail link to him.
|
Michael Jeter, the voice of either Sid's father or Eugene's
(one of these days I'm going to find out which), died on
March 30 of natural causes (he was HIV-positive, but it is
not known yet if this had anything to do with it).
Jeter was probably best known for his role on the TV series
Evening Shade (he won an Emmy for it in 1992),
although he was an accomplished stage actor as well; he won
a Tony in 1990 for the musical Grand Hotel.
|
All Curly fans take note: Adam Wylie (the voice of Curly in
all but three episodes) has been appearing in WB's Gilmore
Girls as Brad. (At least one episode references Brad's
"appearance" in the musical Into the Woods - which,
in fact, included Adam as Jack (of "Jack and the Beanstalk")
before it closed at the end of 2002 (however, the cast album
is available on CD - it's the "Broadway revival" version,
with Vanessa Williams as the witch).)
|
Ever wonder why there isn't really a Yahoo soda (besides the
obvious "Yoo-Hoo might sue")? A company in India was
selling "Yahoo! Tea" - until the company that owns the
Yahoo! websites (www.yahoo.com) sued, claiming that it owns
the "Yahoo!" name (and there are some Yahoo-brand items
being sold). (By the way, Yahoo.com started in 1994,
so they were here first.)

pretty much everything except the questions to Craig and his
answers).

Another Hey Arnold! writer makes good: Glen David Gold (who
wrote "Magic Show") recently had his novel Carter Beats
the Devil (which, coincidentally (or is it?), deals with
a magician) published.
|
Arnold did it again! Another life saved because somebody
remembered watching Arnold giving Eugene the Heimlich
maneuver. (Ironically, that episode is being shown twice
this month. By the way, the first one was in May, 2000, in
southern California.) This time, it's in Washington state:
see
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/134306954_boyhero15m0.html
for details.
|
The things you read in books...did you know that there
really was an "Operation Ruthless" during World War II - and
that it has something to do with James Bond? (See the
Episode 107 capsule for details)
|
Want to see some of Craig Bartlett's non-Arnold
animation (well, besides the earliest "Penny" cartoons from
Pee-Wee's Playhouse)? Craig has a 10-second cartoon on
The Paris Concert for Amnesty International: The Struggle
Continues (it's on the DVD version; I don't know if a
VHS version exists or if it's on it if it does).
