Friday Nights on Nick is an ongoing Friday night block that began on February 10, 2023, premiering and re-running various episodes of Nickelodeon animated series, including SpongeBob SquarePants, The Patrick Star Show, and Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years. All three series often headline the block, airing new shows at 7:00pm EST, and airing older ones (specifically, those of SpongeBob) during the 8:00pm hour.

Production

On February 10, 2023, Nickelodeon released a new promo highlighting the series that would air during the event: SpongeBob SquarePants, Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years, The Loud House, Middlemost Post, The Casagrandes, and the Rugrats reboot. At 7:00pm EST, following a marathon of mix-and-matched SpongeBob segments starring Patrick, the block would be kicked off with the premiere of "Uncredible Journey" and the linear premieres of the Transformers: EarthSpark episodes, "Moo-ving In" & "House Rules."

Schedule

Schedule changes

• Throughout the run of Friday Nights on Nick, two different types of schedules have been conceived. For this listing, each schedule will be denoted under two letters: A or B. A schedule won't be labeled under a letter if it isn't known in full yet.

Schedule A¹

• Initially, the block showcased a new episode of a primary series at 7:00pm, (usually a standalone 11-minute segment) which would be followed by an encore of last week's show at 7:15pm. Then, a secondary series would air at 7:30pm for an hour. After that, a rerun (of SpongeBob) would air at 8:30pm. This schedule format was used from the block's debut until February 24, 2023.

7:00pm - 7:30pm	Primary show
7:30pm - 8:30pm	Secondary show
8:30pm - 9:00pm	SpongeBob rerun

Schedule A²

  • The American premieres of "Backpay Payback" and "House Hunting" were supposed to occur on February 17, 2023 at 7:00pm and 7:15pm respectively, but they were pulled for the rescheduled American premiere of "Host-a-Palooza" and a rerun of "Uncredible Journey."
  • The episodes "Grandpappy the Pirate / Cephalopod Lodge" and "Plankton Retires / Trident Trouble" were supposed to air on March 24, 2023 at 8:00pm and 8:30pm respectively, but they were later pulled for the premiere of "The Best of Sandy Cheeks" episode compilation special.
• Various episodes that "premiered" during this event didn't make their worldwide debut here:
  • Every Transformers: EarthSpark episode that came out here already premiered on Paramount+ on November 11, 2022.
  • "Host-a-Palooza" was first seen on video-on-demand and fuboTV in the U.S. on Valentines' Day 2023.
• The episodes that will air during the "Best of Sandy" compilation are:

  • (#262A) "A Cabin in the Kelp"
  • (#249A) "Sandy's Nutty Nieces"
  • (#241A) "Squirrel Jelly"
• The initial promo for the event showcases clips from (and even mentions in the former’s case) The Casagrandes and Middlemost Post, despite both series concluding their runs months before this event started.
  • It is possible, however, that episodes from either series could rerun during the block.
  • This is the first time Nickelodeon has brought up the likeness of either series on television since October 2022.
