Nickelodeon telecast is horrendous

[12+88=7]

These are the playoffs. This is do or die.

But the telecast is explaining simple concepts of football. Talking more about shows and characters than what's happening on the field.

This should have happened during regular season play, but definitely NOT the playoffs.

Once again the NFL has fumbled the ball on such a large stage. Why not show the Super Bowl on Nickelodeon if you want to bring in new viewers.

I’m not trying to come for you or anything, however, is this really worth having an argument over or....

Is Dora the Explorer an announcer?

NFL is desperate.

 

[dagreat1_87]

you're upset that they are talking about cartoons and kid related things, on a kids channel? The slime graphics and other stuff had my 5 year old interested..Pretty sure thats the point.

You do realize this is being shown on CBS with Nantz/Romo, right? That is how I am watching it. You are acting like it is being only shown on Nick.

Do this during the regular season, not the playoffs.

The NFL is embarrassing themselves.

They’re testing the waters. Like sharks, they’re constantly moving, looking for more food. If they add enough new viewers to make it profitable, they’ll do it for EVERY game. They don’t care about the game, the fans, or the quality of the product. If an old man pooping at halftime meant more money, you’d hear grunting and flushing and poop paper commercials every break.

I'm watching on Nickelodeon by choice.

Not a bad thing for the NFL. I'm sure kids will enjoy it.

I would be upset if this were the only broadcast, but what's the big deal?

Whats new. Next you will tell me that the Commanders had to change their team name.

NFL is using Axe body spray to get attention at this point.

 

[Plankton]

The NFL is doing this because their young viewership is in the tank, and they are trying to hook the young viewer. If you are an adult watching it, you are not the demo that they care about in the Nickelodeon version of the game.

Imagine complaining about this when you can watch the traditional broadcast through normal means. Complaining just to complain.

The listings had Nickelodeon. I didn't realize the game was being telecast on an actual football network.

Thanks for the heads up. Now all is right in the world.

Its got my 6 year interested.

 

[ShortRound]

It's also streaming on Amazon Prime (w/ CBS crew)

That's who the target audience is. So, it looks like this experiment was a success.

That's what I thought, it was the only telecast. I was wrong.

I should have started the thread in the 1st quarter. I almost made it to halftime before it became too much.

What does playoffs have to do with this? There is a normal broadcast on CBS. The Nickelodeon one is specifically for kids.

this isn’t an issue at all
