Your last one was immediately locked. Why post it again?

This may still need more substance to not be banned.

Plus I don't see hard evidence for the harmfulness of Nickelodeon.

Source. please. What studies? And you had better provide then forthwith. This OP is only marginally better than the last, which means you're hanging by a thread (so to speak).

Assuming you can prove that, why not just take down that one show instead of the whole network? Besides, they can change their writting if need-be to be less "harmful"

That study was crap, assuming it's the one I think it is.

Could you maybe provide links, possibly to more than one source?

Nickelodeon (you completely butchered the spelling, in your title, no less) gave us Avatar. On the other hand, it stopped giving us Avatar. I am torn.

Where it says, "[Dr. Dimitri A. Christakis, director of behavior and development at Seattle Children's Research Institute] noted that the study had 'notable weaknesses,' including its small sample size and the lack of adequate blinding. In addition, the children were not assessed before the viewing and drawing, relying instead on parental reports."

I myself wondered if they retested the kids some period of time after watching the show, to determine if there had been any change, that is, if the effect was short-term. Also, SpongeBob wasn't the only show singled out.
