Hey Dude! Nickelodeon now has an entire channel for '90s TV shows

What were you watching in the 90's? Kenan & Kel? Rugrats? Hey Arnold? Starting October 5, Millennials can pretend like they're kids again with Nickelodeon's new venture, The Splat, a new '90s-only content service that will create "a retro experience filled with the network's classic programming," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"We have been listening closely to our first generation of Nick kids that are craving the great characters and shows they grew up with watching Nickelodeon in the '90s," President of Viacom Kids and Family Group Cyma Zarghami told THR. "We designed The Splat with fans and their requests in mind, which means we're bringing together these beloved series and a high level of digital engagement to give fans a retro media experience they can't get anywhere else."
The Splat will be available on TheSplat.com, and it will also take up an eight-hour TV block on TeenNick from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. TV shows will include the aforementioned, as well as All That, Nick or Treat, Super Toy Run, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, CatDog, The Wild Thornberrys, Legends of the Hidden Temple, and, yes, Hey Dude.
