[[Nick Atat Nite]] (now stylized as [[Xtreme Kool Letterz|nick@nite]]) is a <s>timeshare channel</s> programming block on [[Nickelodeon]], currently airing from primetime to early morning. The block was born in 1985 when A&E (then known as ARTS), which was running programming during the primetime hours on Nickelodeon, lauched its own 24 hour channel and because there was likely a small audience for children's programming after bedtime. The block was originally a "oldies channel" showcasing classic television [[Sit ComSitcom|sitcoms]] such as ''[[I Love Lucy]]'', ''[[I DreamofDream of Jeannie]]'' and ''[[SCTV]]''. The block [[Spin -Off|spun off]] the oldies TV network [[TV Land]]. In 2004, Nick At Nite became its own "channel" for Nielsen ratings purposes.

In recent years, Nick At Nite has been [[Network Decay|showing more movies, original programming, and recent sitcoms]] such as ''[[The George Lopez Show]]'', ''[[Malcolm in Thethe Middle]]'', ''[[Adored Byby the Network|The George Lopez Show]]'', ''[[Everybody Hates Chris]]'', ''[[Wolverine Publicity|The George Lopez Show]]'', and ''[[Department of Redundancy Department|The George Lopez Show]]''. The channel is now basically more family-oriented and kid-friendly than the previous Nick At Nite, and some Nick At Nite shows actually are advertised during Nickelodeon programming day. In 2009, the channel's name was changed to nick@nite as part of a network-wide rebranding.
