Most childhood entertainment does not age very well (have you watched Ferngully lately? Yikes), but a shocking number of Nickelodeon shows from the 1990s do. Rocko’s Modern Life is still hilariously profane, Doug is still emotionally intelligent, Are You Afraid of the Dark? still brings the low-budget chills, and Legends of the Hidden Temple, well, it’s still fun mocking the idiots who can’t put together that stupid monkey shrine. If you’re looking to scratch your nostalgic itch with a random episode of Clarissa Explains It All at 3 a.m., Nickelodeon is here with NickSplat, a new streaming video on-demand channel.
VRV [has] partnered with Nickelodeon to become the premiere launch partner for NickSplat, available as an OTT channel on VRV starting today. NickSplat is a multi-screen destination that includes Nickelodeon content from the 1990s and beyond across television and social platforms. Nickelodeon collaborated closely with VRV to create a NickSplat-branded streaming channel that features a rotating selection of nearly 30 series of Nick’s most popular nostalgic animated and live-action programming.
