Season 3 premiere on Nick.com (?)
 
I was just watching the S2 finale on TV, and after it ended there was a commercial that said the next episode is up online. I don't see it there though...

Sabacooza 09-26-2014 08:00 PM

I noticed that to. Maybe it'll be up a little later or maybe not. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Donatello19 09-26-2014 08:03 PM

Hm...I hope so, I'd love to see it. I don't understand why they're putting all the episodes online early though, won't it hurt the ratings?

In-House Ads = $$$

ssjup81 09-26-2014 08:08 PM

Oh I wanna see. My data is normal for now until I hit 1GB.

Just my guess but assuming it will prob show up after it airs west coast time.

Been wondering the same.

Cool of them to do that, but I wouldn't have thought they'd continue to do it this long. Would prefer if they put them up right after they air, not a week early. Esp given they don't repeat new episodes that frequently after they've been on, at least not as much as they have seemed to do with other shows in the past.

Vicky82 09-26-2014 08:26 PM

I should be asleep as it's nearly 2:30am here but I i'm waiting for this season 3 episode to pop up. i'll give it another 30 mins then i'm going to bed.

Megchan 09-26-2014 08:27 PM

Could it be possible that Nick will upload after the season 2 finale is shown on the west coast? I know they haven't done that before, but maybe because it's the beginning of a new season that could be why is not up. I don't know, but it's pretty annoying that they would say a new episode would be online and then not have one up.

To be truly honest, I don 't think Nick gives a sh!t about ratings. When commercials would come, they were almost all Nick promoting their other shows or toys dealing with their shows, and then Transformers 4 coming out on DVD, but that's a movie owned by Paramount, which is connected to Viacom. Only other ads I saw was for Box Trolls and then some local restaurant.

"♪ Saturday morninnng...! ♫" Stfu 'bout that and put Turtles back on. Was pretty much my feeling on that.

*grumbles about annoying taking snake show, weird duck things, and the new Sat. night shows with those kids* Go away.

Be happy then.

I don't want our turtles associated with those things. Keep our turtles as far away from Saturdays and all that filth!

Ditto. And to think, Nick at one time had some pretty good shows when I was younger. I was an avid fan of Hey Dude and Clarissa Explains it All. I wonder what the hell happened?

snake 09-26-2014 09:40 PM

Its still not up?

Likewise. I loved when we had Snick back then on Sat. nights. And then they ruined it.

ssjup81 09-26-2014 10:52 PM

I never cared much for Hey Dude. I preferred Salute Your Shorts to it.

I liked the original SNICK line up. I'm one of those who didn't like All That and found the comedy lacking. I preferred Roundhouse's Improv style.

Oh, I loved Hey Dude, simply because that was actually my first job at the time, as the Trail Boss leader at a local western horse stable called Trails West, and I could totally relate to everything on that show. I was like only 12 at the time, but hey, I got paid 20 bucks an hour, and I got to ride all the horses I wanted.

Megchan 09-26-2014 11:03 PM

Yeah, some how I don't think Nick will be posting the season 3 premiere. At least not tonight. Crap. Nick ****ing trolled us. :tgrumble:

Awesome! Wish I could've made that much cash at the time. My way of making cash...buying a bag of blue raspberry Blowpops and selling them in school at $.25 each...until the principal told me not to. :lol:

sdp 09-26-2014 11:26 PM

You have to look at things objectively and not blinded by nostalgia. The whole "things were better when I was a kid" is only true for you because you were a kid then. I loved the SNICK shows but watching them now they're pretty stupid and I only enjoy them because of nostalgia but they aren't much if you take that away.

As far as ratings, we're in a transitional period since they know not all people watch a show on TV and networks are trying new things in the meantime since there is no other way to measure ratings. Nick isn't the only network premiering shows online, Disney is doing it as well among others, and in a show that is meant to sell toys like TMNT, as long as they sell toys it'll be on the air and they don't care how you watch it.

Vicky82 09-27-2014 03:12 AM

I just woke up, hoping it be up but nope :cry:

I wonder Nick will put it up online after Walmart shows it.

Darthknuxward 09-27-2014 02:22 PM

Just checked, still not up.

Leofan26 09-27-2014 02:25 PM

I just hope they don't gown the dark path of Legend of Korra, episodes online only :(

The way they broke up the episode last night with the commercials in the most undersirable spots, I won't mind if they did make it online only.

Really hope they don't go doing any such thing like that... As it is their online videos don't play smoothly enough for me and with the lack of any options to try to make it better, that would leave me pretty peeved.

Cure 09-27-2014 03:10 PM

More people have internet than cable, so online episodes would give more people legal means of viewing the episodes. It's a viable business plan.

Besides, that might not even happen.

CyberCubed 09-27-2014 06:38 PM

Is it up yet? I can't view the Nick site on my Iphone and am wondering if I can watch when I get home

Konchadunga 09-27-2014 06:44 PM

Walmart only showed a bit of the episode, so my guess is it won't be up for a while.

Cure 09-27-2014 10:55 PM

The only other thing I can think of is that someone thought they were going by the Sunday schedule and scheduled the episode to go up Sunday afternoon. If not, no big deal.

Yeah, but not everyone can view it for different reasons. My problem is that I have minutes on my Internet and playing videos eats them up. I can only use 5GB and if I go over that I get charged. So that's why I avoid watching videos. I do agree that they probably won't go the online only route with TMNT because it's very successful. The problem with Korra is that the ratings went down, so that's why they switched it to only being online.

Shark_Blade 09-28-2014 08:59 AM

Glad I'm at home with fast internet.

*sips hot chocolate*

BRING IT NICK.

BubblyShell22 09-28-2014 09:02 AM

My Internet is fast, it's just that I have a limited amount of data I can use before getting charged, so that's my issue. If I had Wi-Fi, I wouldn't have that problem, but we can't get that out here in the country.

Or blocked because you're out of the country...or have restricted cell data. 1GB usage within 3 days and after that, it slows down until it resets another 3 days later. ^^

IndigoErth 09-28-2014 12:32 PM

Fast unlimited internet... for me it's the fact that it's an older computer at this point and while it still works fine enough for a lot of things Nick's videos however appear to have zero video options for quality, etc I could change to make it play better. Which is dumb, because it handles other sites like YouTube just fine. :roll:

Some people aren't so lucky, some people live just next to the dead zone of their internet provider. :cry:

BubblyShell22 09-29-2014 08:07 AM

My guess as to why they aren't showing the latest episode online could be because they want it to be a surprise, and since they already had certain Walmarts show sneak peeks, they probably figure it'd be best to let everyone wait until Friday for the whole thing.

IndigoErth 09-29-2014 12:13 PM

Maybe the early online release was just intended for the end of season 2. Perhaps to help build some hype and draw people back a little sooner after being gone all summer? And then accidentally trolled people with the commercial...

BubblyShell22 09-29-2014 06:06 PM

Possibly. Or they accidentally showed that commercial and never intended to.

JTH 09-29-2014 06:28 PM

I think they'll still put it up somewhere at some point before it airs.

The Season 2 premiere was put on the Nick App last year 2 weeks before it aired on TV.

BubblyShell22 09-30-2014 07:46 AM

True. They might do that. Only time will tell.

THGhost 09-30-2014 10:56 AM

It'll have been put there by mistake. They no doubt put up stuff like that when there actually is another episode to come, but forgot that there isn't one this time? :P
