Nickelodeon is a hack, they rose to heights never before seen, and then stopped caring. Now they fall like Icarus into the sea of mediocrity and farce, subscribing to Milton: "Tis better to reign in Hell, than to serve in Heaven."

Who do we cast blame upon? The tipsy artist? The Rosebud-ing tycoon worshipping coin? Or the vagrant who claims knowledge and wisdom?

Or do we look inward and say our time has passed, reluctantly leaving the new generation with what remains of the Golden Age?

All of the above in my opinion. We're just as much to blame as those behind the scenes. People have a tendency when they like something to demand it over and over. With media, it's a double edged sword. We'll get what we want and it will make us happy. But because we keep demanding it the company will keep pumping it out and eventually we get burnt out and tired of it. Of course companies sometimes don't know how to manage their content as well either.

Really it's everything you stated. What we had back then we'll unlikely to see again. We can totally forget about it and embrace the change, or stay in the past. Personally, I say do both. Enjoy what you loved while giving the new a chance.
