[[Teen Nick]] is a sister channel of [[Nickelodeon]] launched in 2001, [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|primarily aimed at teenagers.]] It was formerly known as The-N. The-N was originally a night-time network that shared space with Noggin (a preschool network) and aired from 6pm to 6am EST. In 2007, The-N finally split from Noggin (now known as [[Nick Jr]]) and in 2009, the channel was re-branded TeenNick in order to emphasize the Nickelodeon connection. Currently, there is a [[Network Decay|shift in programming]] from dramatic series with older teens to more light-hearted shows showcasing younger kids. The network is primarily known for being the American distributor of ''[[Degrassi the Next Generation]]'', as well as for off-network Nickelodeon live-action repeats, though they have recently been beefing up their original programming. It aired several Canadian shows like the afformentioned Degrassi, [[Instant Star]], and [[The Best Years]]

Despite the focus on teenagers, TeenNick used to be notorious for its zealous [[Media Watchdogs]]. The most infamous example of censorship was when they [[Missing Episode|complete excised two episodes]] of ''Degrassi'' revolving around [[Good Girls Avoid Abortion|a character getting an abortion]], only showing them years later. Reruns of ''[[Daria]]'' also suffered from [[Edited for Syndication|syndication cuts]], as did an entire season of ''[[South of Nowhere]]'' due to [[But Not Too Gay|its lesbian content and romantic scenes.]] This censorship has softened in recent years, as ''Degrassi'' has been shown without any editing. [[All That|Nick Cannon]] is the honorary chairman of TeenNick and apparently has some authority over programming, as he conceived and hosted the first annual TeenNick HALO Awards, an awards show awarding teens making a difference. The channel has recently launched a new block on July 25th called '[[The 90s Are All That]]', showing [[Nostalgia Filter|Nickelodeon's 90s output.]] Oh, and on a thankful note, this block instantly became [[Cash Cow Franchise|a huge ratings success,]] [http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2011/07/nicks_new_90s_nostalgia_block.html multiplying the ratings for it's time slot by 850%.]

Also, it's "[[Teen Nick]]," [[Spell My Name ~~With~~ an "S"|not "Teenick,"]] though that's a common mistake.

The [[Tee Nick]] programming block was born in 2000 and aired Sunday nights from 6pm to 9pm EST. It later became the [[Spiritual Successor]] of the [[Snick]] block when [[Tee Nick]] Saturday Night took over SNICK's timeslot in 2004. [[There Is No Such Thing As Notability|It wasn't very notable]] or different than SNICK, except the programming was a bit more girl-orientated with occasional promos with fashion tips and such ([[Tee Nick]] Saturday Night was more boy-orientated). The block was hosted by J Boogie and lasted until 2009, when Nickelodeon phased out all their programming blocks and later used the name to re-brand The-N, albeit with a different spelling.
