The Nickelodeon Saturday programming block, known as Gotta See Saturdays from 2012 to 2013, and Nick's New Saturday Night from 2014, is the current program block branding of Nickelodeon's Saturday morning and Saturday evening programming on the flagship channel in the United States. The morning block (airing from 11:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m ET/PT) mainly features new premieres of Nicktoons programming, with the evening block (from 8:00 p.m.-10:00 p.m ET/PT) consisting of the network's original live-action sitcoms. The branding launched on September 22, 2012 with season premieres of the respective series in both dayparts.[1] The evening version of Gotta See Saturdays is a direct successor to the former Saturday night SNICK (1992-2004) and TEENick (2001-2009) blocks.[2]
As of September 13, 2014, the new programming block for Saturday night premieres is now called Nick New Saturday Night, started with premieres of The Haunted Hathaways and The Thundermans season 2, and the newest Nick shows Henry Danger, Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn, and Bella and the Bulldogs. One of the first acquired programming to air in this format is the TeenNick Music Video Show TeenNick Top 10.
