Home > Oh Yeah! Cartoons


Oh Yeah! Cartoons was a late- 1990s animation showcase that appeared on the Nickelodeon cable channel. It served as the launching point for several original cartoons such as The Fairly OddParents, ChalkZone, and My Life as a Teenage Robot. Oh Yeah! was an animation project guided by Fred Seibert , the former president of MTV Networks and Hanna-Barbera Productions. The bulk of the Oh Yeah! material has been compiled by festivals such as the Nicktoons Film Festival series.

Produced by Frederator Studios, it ran as part of the Nicktoons lineup on the Nickelodeon cable channel, and was hosted by Kenan Thompson of Kenan and Kel fame. This show carried both company-directed animated shorts, and cartoons based on viewer-submitted concept suggestions. Bill Burnett composed the show's theme music.

At the time, the program was often seen as a parody or a lesser copy of Cartoon Network's What-A-Cartoon! Show. Perceived by the industry as overly ambitious, Nickelodeon's Oh Yeah! half-hour featured in its first season, a total of 39 brand new seven-minute cartoons in 13 episodes, surpassing the number of new cartoons and characters on any other single network. In its full run, Oh Yeah! Cartoons featured and produced over 99 cartoons and 54 characters.
