Drake & Josh

The series follows two teenage boys with opposite personalities, Drake Parker (played by Drake Bell) and Josh Nichols (played by Josh Peck), who become stepbrothers. Both actors had previously appeared on The Amanda... read more
By far the best Dan Schneider show. This show is his masterpiece. It was at its highest ratings when it ended. This show never went downhill.
This show is so good. Everything on this list, except Victorious and Zoey 101, is good.
The greatest show Dan ever created. Drake and Josh is amazing. Period.

iCarly
iCarly is an American teen sitcom that ran on Nickelodeon from September 8, 2007, until November 23, 2012. The series was created by Dan Schneider and focuses on teenager Carly Shay, who creates her own web show called iCarly with her best friends Sam Puckett and Freddie Benson. The show was a major... read more
I loved that this is one of the few shows that got an actual ending that was both good and emotional. I love everyone's friendship, how unique they are, and how their home lives and other aspects are explored. I loved Sam and Freddie's friendship dynamic. Spencer had to be the funniest character, hands down. I loved Mrs. Benson. I appreciated that both Sam dating Freddie and Carly dating Freddie didn't ruin Sam and Carly's friendship. Gibby was just weird but also funny. It's interesting how Sam, who grew up with a neglectful and abusive mom, and Freddie, with an overbearing and protective mom, ended up being friends and even dated for a short while. They became friends with Carly, who had the best home life despite her dad not being home.

Victorious
Victorious is an American sitcom created by Dan Schneider that originally aired on Nickelodeon from March 27, 2010, through February 2, 2013. The series follows aspiring singer Tori Vega, who attends Hollywood Arts High School after unexpectedly taking her sister Trina's place in a talent showcase.... read more
Victorious was an amazing show. It featured characters that gave real-life teens a glimpse of what high school might be like. The storyline was great, and every character had a unique personality, so we never saw two people who acted the same way. The musical aspect added more flavor to the show, with every song being great and catchy. Every character was talented, not just in the show but also in real life. In my opinion, Andre was the most talented character on this show. My favorite episode was "Beggin' on Your Knees." Victorious is a 9/10 for me.
I enjoyed Victorious while it lasted, even though I would have loved to see an ending. I still think the whole cast of Victorious gave it their all. And the April Fools' episode was one of the most enjoyable episodes, in my opinion.

Zoey 101
Zoey 101 is an American teen comedy-drama television series that aired on Nickelodeon from January 9, 2005, to May 2, 2008. The show follows Zoey Brooks, played by Jamie Lynn Spears, along with her younger brother Dustin, played by Paul Butcher, and their friends. They all attend Pacific Coast Academy... read more
How is this jewel not in position 1? Or at least in place 2? How is it that iCarly and Victorious have more votes if they were horrible? Zoey 101 is even better than Drake & Josh, but it doesn't matter if they put Drake & Josh in first place. How could they put iCarly and Victorious as if they were better than Zoey 101? Zoey 101 is a show hard to beat (except for its last season), but it's the best Dan could do.
It's the only show on this list (if I recall correctly) that has no laugh track.

The Amanda Show
The Amanda Show is an American live-action sketch comedy and variety show created by Dan Schneider. It aired on Nickelodeon from October 16, 1999, to September 21, 2002.
The show starred Amanda Bynes, Drake Bell, and Nancy Sullivan. It also featured John Kassir, Raquel Lee, and Josh Peck, who... read more
My favorite of the sketch shows for kids. Absolutely hilarious and creative characters like Totally Kyle, Courtney, and the one we all know and love: Penelope Taynt.
An amazing and funny show! The sketches and characters on the show are so hilarious, and I laugh every time!
This show should be number 1. Drake and Josh started this show first before the show Drake & Josh.

Kenan & Kel
Kenan & Kel is an American teen sitcom created by Kim Bass for Nickelodeon. It starred Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell, who were popular cast members of the sketch comedy show All That. The series aired from 1996 to 2000 and became known for its slapstick humor and catchphrases.
This and Victorious should switch places.

Henry Danger

This show is very entertaining, and it's amazing for nerds like myself. The idea of a kid becoming a superhero's sidekick, and eventually a superhero, has run through most people's minds when they were young. I'm so glad I gave this show another chance. I used to hate it with a passion, but now I love it.
For me, it's the best show ever to have existed. It's really funny, and I am very sad they ended it.
How can the best show in the world be #10? You must be kidding me!

Sam and Cat

It is a crossover spin-off/sequel of both iCarly and Victorious, starring Jennette McCurdy as Sam Puckett and Ariana Grande as Cat Valentine. The show follows the two characters as they become... read more
Sam and Cat was a great spinoff, in my opinion. It featured Cat from Victorious, who was kind of dumb but also showed a loving side. She cared for her friends and was hilarious in her own unique way. It also featured Sam from iCarly, who was more tomboyish and would beat someone up if she had to, but also had a loving side in her who loved to eat and cared for her friends. My favorite episode of this show was "The Great Tuna Jump," which featured Jade and Robbie from Victorious and Freddie from iCarly. I give Sam and Cat a 7.5/10.
This show, in my opinion, is right behind Victorious. It also has one of the best characters from Victorious and a character from iCarly.

The Adventures of Kid Danger
I thought that this show was decent. I wonder why they had to cancel it after only 10-12 episodes. The theme song was pretty catchy, and it's the same cast as the original Henry Danger.

I loved it because it had good acting.
I loved this show, and I am sad that it ended on May 25, 2018.
It was a very good show because they had different kinds of superpowers.
It's my second favorite TV show of all time, and the acting was excellent!
