Trivia[]

  • This event started season 3, with "The Bully" and "Just One Bite" being the only episodes from that season to air in the event.
  • A special Nick screening was created exclusively for this event.
  • A clip from "Nature Pants" is seen in the promo, despite the fact that the episode did not air in this event.
  • Invader Zim was skipped at least once on the block. After 9/11, a new episode ("Door to Door") was scheduled to air on September 14, but it was replaced with another episode of The Fairly OddParents because of its content.[6] Due to this, new episodes of Invader Zim were skipped for the remainder of the block, adding them in Friday Night Party with the Nicktoons.[7]
  • The highest rated episodes of this event were "Procrastination" and "I'm With Stupid," earning 3.888 million viewers, the highest that the series had received at that point, while the lowest rated episodes of this event were "Squid on Strike" and "SpongeBob, Sandy, and the Worm," earning only 2.520 million viewers.
  • This event premiered the uncut airing of the episode "Just One Bite."
