[edit] Toonz2Nite
In 2004, when Nicktoons TV extended their hours, the 7-10PM slot was called Toonz2Nite (extended further to 11PM in November 2005). This had a separate, distinct presentation from the main channel, and the programmes shown were generally aimed at older viewers. The launch line-up consisted of The Fairly OddParents, The Angry Beavers, Invader Zim, Ren & Stimpy, AAAHH!!! Real Monsters, Rocko's Modern Life. At various times, Yakkity Yak, Rocket Power, Hey Arnold!, SpongeBob SquarePants, As Told By Ginger, and Danny Phantom have also been shown in this slot. The Toonz2Nite branding was dropped in early 2006, but the show has generally stuck to airing the same shows in this slot as it did before.
