Nickelodean

Ever notice how Nickelodean's hidden message seems to be "Youth can change the world! Oh, not you. You're not a robot and you don't have magic powers or super powers or absurdly rich parents or a supersuit or mystic powers."? All the shows out there about normal teens or children are just about day-to-day life, typically in school.

And teens are typically portrayed as shallow party animals. Who can never get away with anything. Or will admit to anything because they're slaves to their consciences (which always agree with adults). Or will totally freak out and become paranoid by seeing a movie the MPAA doesn't want them to see/
