In 1979, Nickelodeon debuted as the first cable TV network to program exclusively for children. Early in its history, it was nicknamed the "Green Network" because of its educational programming. Its major programming includes
Animated Shows,
Kid Coms, and
Made For TV Movies. Its morning preschool educational block,
Nick Jr., includes programs for toddlers and kindergarteners. During its evening block,
Nick At Nite, the channel shows old
Sit Coms and dramatic series. It is currently a Viacom property.
Several other specialized cable channels have spun off from it, including
TV Land,
Nick Jr.,
TeenNicknote Formerly Noggin/The N and Nick GAS (Games and Sports), and
Nicktoonsnote Formerly Nicktoons TV and Nicktoons Network.
