Ask anyone their favorite Nickelodeon show, and they'll probably betray their age. Millennials might mention All That or Drake & Josh, while kids today will likely mention Henry Danger or The Thundermans. Everyone, however, believes in SpongeBob supremacy. Nickelodeon might have changed over the years, but it's still a source of entertainment and comfort for plenty of kids, preteens, and nostalgic adults.

2025 on Nickelodeon

This year, Nickelodeon is rolling out more of the same shows from last year, except for a few new notable ones like The Thundermans: Undercover and Wylde Park. A lot of Nickelodeon shows and movies are also still available on Paramount+. At just $7.99/month, it’s the cheapest way to watch the channel's on-demand offerings. Meanwhile, the free streaming service Pluto TV carries two Nickelodeon spin-off channels—‘90s Nick (added just this year) and Nick on Pluto TV—if you want a live feed and don’t mind multiple ad interruptions.
