Nicktoons, known as Nicktoons Network from 2005 - 2009, is a television channel that reruns Nick's older animated lineup since 2002. The channel sometimes reruns episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants, despite the amount of reruns shown on the main channel. After the Nick rebranding, as of September 28, 2009, the channel reinstated their old name, Nicktoons.
