Nick in it's heyday

Ahhh, Salute Your Shorts.  The essence of TRUE Nick humor lies in this show, no longer aired on Nickelodeon.  I grew up with this show, along with other shows like Hey, Dude, Welcome Freshmen, and You Can't Do That On Television. This was when Nick was about being a kid and enjoying it.  And when things were basically about nothing, and nothing is fun!  Nowadays Nick is just cartoons; geared toward younger viewers.  No live action comedies at all. Just Spongebob (yuck).

This show was about kids at a summer camp and the episodes were so funny! Unforgettable characters like Budnik, Sponge (who was my favorite because he was like me, a scrawny smart nerd-like guy) and Donkey Lips?  I laughed my head off at it.  It was so unbelieveable yet so believeable.  Why doesn't Nick make shows like this anymore?  Maybe they should start showing these shows on Nick At Nite or something, since now people who have grown up with these shows are in college or at least high school.
