Best Nickelodeon Shows of the 2000s

The Top Ten
1 SpongeBob SquarePants SpongeBob SquarePants is an American animated television series created by marine biologist and animator the late Stephen Hillenburg for Nickelodeon. SpongeBob is currently the most popular show on Nickelodeon, as well as the longest running show, running for 23 years, and is beginning its 13th season. The show revolves around a sea sponge called SpongeBob SquarePants and his adventures under the sea. The show is considered to be one of the best Nickelodeon and cartoon shows of all time.

SpongeBob was spectacular until after the first movie (which was also great). Once the fourth season hit you could tell something was off (beyond the stark changes in the animation and voice acting). The biggest issue was that the writing got sloppy (which it still is - more than ever).

Too bad it went downhill after the first movie. But I did hear it's starting to get better after the second movie. Either way, the old SpongeBob was a classic. They should show reruns of it more than the new ones.

SpongeBob is Nickelodeon's best show ever to exist.

SpongeBob at #2?! Should be #1! Though Drake & Josh is good but not as good as ATLA and SBSP

2 Drake & Josh Drake & Josh is an American television sitcom created by Dan Schneider for Nickelodeon. The series follows the lives of two teenage boys with opposite personalities, Drake Parker (Drake Bell) and Josh Nichols (Josh Peck), who become stepbrothers. Both actors previously appeared in The Amanda Show along with Nancy Sullivan, who plays Drake and Megan's mother in the series. Miranda Cosgrove plays Megan, Drake's mischievous younger sister, and Jonathan Goldstein plays Walter, Josh's father. The series' opening theme song, "Found a Way", is written by Drake Bell and Backhouse Mike and performed by Bell. The series ran from January 11, 2004, to September 16, 2007, totaling 57 episodes in 4 seasons. ...read more.

Drake and Josh was in a mixture of shows that made of my childhood. Probably #2 on my list behind iCarly or #1

This show was by far the best show I seen on Nickelodeon and the best one I seen in a long time.

Zoey 101 is second only to this

3 The Fairly Oddparents The Fairly OddParents is an American animated television series created by Butch Hartman for Nickelodeon.

In the early 00's, when I wasn't watching SpongeBob, chances are it was because this show was on.

4 Icarly iCarly is an American teen sitcom that ran on Nickelodeon from September 8, 2007 until November 23, 2012. The series, created by Dan Schneider, focuses on teenager Carly Shay, who creates her own web show called iCarly with her best friends Sam Puckett and Freddie Benson.

I know, u see somehow the world will change for me and be so wonderful.. Love me some Miranda Cosgrove or Freddie,Jennette was also really funny..love icarly

5 Avatar: The Last Airbender Avatar: The Last Airbender is an American animated television series that aired for three seasons on Nickelodeon from 2005 to 2008. Avatar: The Last Airbender is set in an Asiatic-like world in which some people are able to manipulate the classical elements by use of psychokinetic variants of Chinese martial arts, known as "bending". This show is often seen as one of the greatest cartoons of all time and is commonly thought to be an anime.

Avatar The Last Airbender was very innovative and there wasn't any kid show like it at it's time. It had great characters, great world building, fantastic and interesting lore, amazing fight scenes, and it took its audience seriously, no matter what age they were. The series still holds up to this day compared to other Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, and Disney Channel shows, and deserves to be at the #1 spot.

I love this show so much...I used to be absolutely addicted to it. Super excited for Smoke and Shadow part 3, which I pre-ordered and is coming out Tuesday!

Have it as number 1 on my Top 10 Cartoons Nickelodeon Should Show Reruns Of List.

Uh, why is this #3? Surely deserves the #1 spot

The show was funny,good songs which I still listen to too, common guys am I the only one who thinks this show is that good?

This is an awesome show but I don't believe it should be on the list of 2000's shows. This is March 27th 2010 :) Just a little correction

7 Danny Phantom Danny Phantom is an American animated series created by Butch Hartman for Nickelodeon. It was produced by Billionfold Studios and distributed in Canada by Nelvana, a Canadian animation company. The series follows a teenage boy who, after an accident with an unpredictable portal between the human world and the "Ghost Zone", becomes a human-ghost hybrid and takes on the task of saving his town (and the world) from subsequent ghost attacks using an evolving variety of supernatural powers. He is aided in his quest by his two best friends, and later, his older sister, who for most of the series' run are among the only people who know of his double life.

This is the best series ever. At first I watched a video about good cartoons with bad episodes.i liked the concept of Danny phantom so I watched it. When I finished I was in aw. Also this series doesn't get much respect.on literally every video about amazing nickelodeon shows it's always on stinking honorable mentions but I think this is easily the best animated T.V. show in the world.

This is pretty easily my favorite show EVER, thank you very much. It deserves to be on the list. I guess you could say I was a fan of paranormal stuff even BEFORE it, but THIS?! Good work, Butch.

This is easily the best nickelodeon show hands down. Though I feel like it should get more mentioned.

8 Big Time Rush Big Time Rush is an American television series that originally aired on Nickelodeon from November 28, 2009 until July 25, 2013. It was created by Scott Fellows (also the creator of Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide and Johnny Test and the head writer of The Fairly OddParents)

10 The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius is an American computer animated television series created by John A. Davis. It is the first spin-off to the 2001 film Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius.
