List of events
AfterToons is a daily animated afternoon block that began on April 10 , 2023 ,[ 1] showcasing episodes of various Nickelodeon series, including Monster High , SpongeBob SquarePants , The Patrick Star Show , Big Nate , The Loud House , and The Smurfs .
Production
On March 17 , 2023 , Nickelodeon released a promo with Nate (from Big Nate ) announcing the block, featuring clips pasted together from older network bumpers and snippets from each series. No exact release date was given out, although it was said that the block will be "coming soon."[ 6]
Two weeks later on March 31 , 2023 , another promo for the event was released, highlighting the same animated series as before. However, Nickelodeon stated that they would be releasing "Brand New Toons" on the block as well, likely referring to the upcoming premieres of episodes from The Patrick Star Show ,[ 7] Big Nate ,[ 8] and (according to the promo) the American debuts of various Smurfs segments. A date for the block was revealed as well, with the launch date proposed to be April 10, 2023.[ 1]
