When you find yourself trying to remember a show (or any works) that's on the tip of your tongue but just out of reach, come here - the collective brain of the TVTropes community can probably help. Post all the details you can remember (examples help). If you're looking for a trope, head over to Trope Finder. Have general questions about tropes? Visit Ask The Tropers!
Check the Your Head A-Splode page, maybe?
I don't see anything on there that sounds like it could possibly be it. But thanks.
There is also My Skull Runneth Over, although I don't see something like that there either.
Thanks though. I really hope this can be found.
Was it Sheen's Brain
from Jimmy Neutron?
It sounds very possible that it's Sheen's Brain above. If not, could it possibly be Dexter and Computress Get Mandark! from Dexter's Laboratory? It's not Nickelodeon, but there is still a head that explodes from too much knowledge (I think).
EDIT: It actually explodes from a grow ray.

Thanks. But I highly doubt it's those. He thought it was a stand alone short he saw just one time on Nicktoons in 2004 or 2005. It's possible maybe that it was really on another channel, or part of some show, but I'm really sure not ones that familiar. I'm also pretty sure he said it looked like simplistic/basic 2d animation? I need to ask him again soon though.
Just bumping this up because I really, really hope this can really be found.
A good place to look would be here, and to then search for anything that sounds accurate.
And don't bump a lot.

Thanks, but I don't think it's on that list. I've checked before, and checked again. There's probably stuff missing from there. And it's possible this was really from another channel, or part of some show, but probably a Nicktoons short.
My only other option is probably not it either, but there is an episode of Chowder (again, not Nickelodeon, and much later than the date you gave) where similar events occur.
My boyfriend told me that around '04 or '05, a single time, he was really sure it was on Nicktoons, he saw a short he can find no evidence of or reference to anywhere. He said it was about a boy who gained so much knowledge, that his head exploded from too much knowledge, and it looked like a moral. It was not Foul Facts or Safety Queen. Does anyone have any idea what this was? Thanks.
