Ed, you'll be happy to know that Nick is leaving Cedar Fair parks Canada's Wonderland, Kings Dominion, Great America, Carowinds, and Kings Island. So those flash in the pan characters will be no more. I have a 2 year old and even if I had an older kid they probably wouldn't know the Rugrats or Wild Thornberrys, but Dora and Diego are HUGE. I might have to write a post on this because there are some who are happy about Nick leaving and others who aren't.

Thanks for reading!

It really seems like the Nick brand is really spread thin when it comes to amusement parks. Nickelodeon has had a major presence at Universal Orlando since day 1. Then they went and destoryed most of the Hanna-Barbera at the Kings Family of parks in favor of Nick. Spongebob and gang booted Snoopy and the Peanuts out of Mall of America. They've got the Nick Resort in Orlando not to mention you can ride the Spongbob simulator ride at a dozen or so other locations! Uggg…enough all ready!

The sad thing is, Nickelodeon has taken over space previously occupied by timeless characters like Snoopy and Charlie Brown, Fred Flintstone and Yogi Bear. Stuff they put in at the Paramount Parks not more than 15 years ago is all ready outdated. Nobody knows what Little Bill or The Wild Thornberrys are anymore. Even Rugrats, one of Viacoms most popular brands 10 years ago is now all but forgotten.

These flash-in-the-pan characters are not worth the investments they are making!
