Ah, the Internet. Letting strangers spit on strangers since the early-to-mid 1990s!

Even scarier is the thought of you helping your kids with English homework! I would let your kid teach YOU sentence structure and capitalization when he/she gets to that part of their education.

Maybe if nickelodeon brought back invader zim for new episodes the wouldn’t be sinking so fast with ratings they might even shoot right back up.

I definitely only started watching “Mad Men” on AMC this season because I started streaming it on Netflix first. No way I would have dived in for the fifth season otherwise.

I wonder if there is also a bit of McLuhan at work here (“the medium is the message”). How is this streaming being done? On computer? Laptop? Tablet? Phone? Maybe the young ones like the “cool factor” of watching programming on an iPad or iPhone instead of a room-specific device (television).

Sure hope they didn’t waste too much time to point out the obvious.

We’re old school and don’t have a DVR, nor cable, nor on demand. We have DVDs, netflix, and a OTA TV. So the first time that the kids were watching PBS and asked to pause the show, I had to do a double take and laugh.

I think the correlation with Netflix content is pretty weak. The data definitely support the idea that traditional kids programming is in decline, but I think another suspect should be considered – YouTube. Maker Studios, and other like-minded YouTube production studios, are growing rapidly and the vast majority of their non-gaming related content plays to Nickelodeons traditional target audience.
