It's called "Figure It Out."

Oh yeah! "What Would You Do!" I got GaS just recently, so that's my excuse for forgetting about that.

I would LOVE a channel devoted to Classic Nick! BRING IT ON!

Only if it includes Dusty's Treehouse, Livewire and Popclips.

Hey, if we're going to go "old school," we might as well go really "old school." ;-)

HELL YEAH!! Don't forget "Out of Control" & "Don't Just Sit There!"

Random note: "Out of Control" was the first show produced specifically for Nickelodeon (1984). All previous shows came from outside sources.

Nope...The afore-mentioned "Livewire" was a teen talk show produced specifically for Nickelodeon..

Not to mention YOU CAN'T DO THAT ON TELEVISION (at least one episode featured some kid named Alanis--wonder whatever happened to her).

I heard that "Out of Control" was the FIRST. My source:

Here's "Livewire's" page:

Another random note:
Kevin Kubucheskie of "You Can't do that on Television" was on Livewire; he talked about it in an interview with ycdtotv.com. He mentioned that Megadeth was on the same show as him.

I believe she was on a half dozen or so shows, all in 1986. Unfortunately, "YCDToTV" will probably never air in the states again (except for the occasional U-Pick situation) because the production company would have to pay ALL of the 100+ kids. Something they're not prepared to do. If you think that's baloney, check here. There's an article about somewhere.

Your source is wrong... a check of Lexis-Nexis shows a reference to "Livewire" in a New York Times article from 7/12/81.

Well, didn't they pay the 100+ kids at the time of production?

Back when it was called, appropriately, The Pinwheel Channel.

And according to the great page I was directed to from the above links, the name Nickelodeon came because the original station ID consisted of a man turning the crank on an old nickelodeon machine.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!

Not to mention a big <BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ>

Ironic, isn't it? [ducking]

Announcer: I could name that tune in one note...way, way off key!

[sigh] Another series lost to the realities of economics.

Back in November, one of the NASCAR cars ran a Speed Racer paint scheme....but I thought the series busted in March and went to GAS. IIRC, both show the original.
