The latest episode is not being promoted, at all on Nick.com. It just has a thing called "Spring Cleaning" but that's it, and it's on the second page. Considering it's Friday night, TMNT should be promoted on the first page. But nothing, no "new episode tonight, check your local listings" and, my DVR isn't even picking up Buried Secrets, at all. I thought the reran the episodes on Sundays. Well, if they do, my system is not seeing it. I agree with you, Nick is the reason why the show is so low in the ratings. When it was doing fine in the beginning, they took it away from it's slot to build a fanbase for their other shows, and then they kept on bouncing TMNT around, so it shouldn't be of no surprise that the ratings are crashing. Sad thing, this is something networks do to shows that A-are getting poor ratings to begin with, so are trying other venues, but TMNT was not this case initially, or B-, it's a show someone in power doesn't want to deal with anymore, so they bounce it around on purpose in hopes the viewership would drop, and then they can use that as reason to cancel. Either way, I am having this sinking feeling, that someone at Nick loving thier Spongebob, but doesn't much care for TMNT.
To be honest, I'm surprised Spongebob is still on and popular. I still remember when the show originally started, as we were finishing up high school, and then going on about "That concept is too stupid to last. Let's go watch Pokemon!" lol

Pokemon isn't surprising. The series as a whole gained way more popularity than expected (it was originally supposed to have ended after the first movie, to my knowledge) in Japan, and as long as the show has the source material to pull from (the games), it'll always have an animated series to help promote it. Once the games stop being made, the series probably will too. One of my adult students (she's in her 20s) really like Pokemon, but hasn't watched the anime itself since the first generation, but she still enjoys the games.

That aside, kinda sucks that it seems like the network is more into promoting their own original Nicktoon shows (Spongebob, that Sanjay and Craig you guys mention, etc.) as opposed to the other stuff on the network.
