TeenNick is the name of a cable network in the United States which currently exists as The N, but will be converted to the new TeenNick branding and name on September 28, 2009. The network's logo, which is part of a universal branding effort across all four Nickelodeon networks,[1] was revealed at a launch party for the network on June 18, 2009.

TV channel (2009-present)

Longtime Nickelodeon personality Nick Cannon (declared in publicity materials as the "Chairman of TeenNick") is expected to have a presence on the network, along with new programming exclusive to the network. TeenNick's afterschool to primetime blocks are expected to be divided into two distinct blocks;

  • 3pm-9pm ET - Programming meant for early to mid teenage audiences (13-16), mainly older originals from The N era, and acquired sitcoms and other teen dramas.
  • 9pm-12am ET - Programming meant for older teen and young adult audiences (17 and up), including new episodes of TeenNick programming and acquired programming.

Programs on TeenNick (TV channel)

Currently, it is expected that most of The N's current programming will remain on the network with some slight changes for both scheduling purposes and possible new future programming.
