Nickelodeon Animation Studios (also known as "Nicktoons Productions"), the animation unit of Nickelodeon, was established from [[Games Animation]] in 1990 to produce animated TV shows known as Nicktoons for Nickelodeon and Nicktoons Network. In 2016, the studio was simply renamed to "Nickelodeon Studios" (not to be confused with the old [[Nickelodeon Studios]] from 1990 to 2005) due to the animation staff moving to a new studio complex that houses both animated and live-action productions. | Nickelodeon Animation Studios (also known as "Nicktoons Productions"), the animation unit of Nickelodeon, was established from [[Games Animation]] in 1990 to produce animated TV shows known as Nicktoons for Nickelodeon and Nicktoons Network.

* | *The 2009 Nickelodeon Productions logo usually plasters this on reruns. Even NickRewind on TeenNick is replacing this logo and the first one with the same logo during split-screen credits (''Angry Beavers'' is one show that still retains this logo because there is no split screen credits at the end). | ||

Cartoons'' becomes ''Oh Yeah!''). | '''Editor's Note:''' If this logo has been shown after Nickelodeon USA's split-screen credits, sometimes the name of the show in the copyright notice is very horribly shortened down (e.g., ''My Life as a Teenage Robot'' becomes ''Teen Age Robot'', and ''Oh Yeah!
