This is a list of the most watched premieres on Nickelodeon. It includes movies, TV episodes, special events (i.e. the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards) and crossover events with over 6 million viewers. Reruns are not included.
Viewership data is incomplete or missing for many premieres, especially for premieres from the 1990s and earlier. The below list uses rankings to show the relative position of each documented premiere on the list itself. The fact that a premiere is assigned a certain rank on this list does not mean the premiere was that most viewed premiere of all time (i.e. the 15th entry on this list is not necessarily the 15th most viewed premiere of all time). +RankEpisodeSeriesOriginal air dateViewers (in millions)1"All Growed Up"RugratsJuly 21, 200111.9132"iSaved Your Life"iCarlyJanuary 18, 201011.1643"iQuit iCarly"iCarlyDecember 5, 20098.8484"Fairly OddBaby"The Fairly OddParentsFebruary 18, 20088.8095"Atlantis SquarePantis"SpongeBob SquarePantsNovember 12, 20078.7576"Dunces and Dragons"SpongeBob SquarePantsFebruary 20, 20068.5607Merry Christmas, Drake & JoshDrake & JoshDecember 5, 20088.095 8"Chuckie's Duckling/A Dog's Life"RugratsJanuary 18, 19997.960 9"Have You Seen This Snail?"SpongeBob SquarePantsNovember 11, 20057.934 10"iFight Shelby Marx"iCarlyAugust 8, 20097.866 11"iGot a Hot Room"iCarlyJuly 30, 20107.740 12"Still Babies After All These Years"RugratsJuly 21, 20017.697 132009 Kids' Choice AwardsNickelodeon Kids' Choice AwardsMarch 28, 20097.675 14"What Ever Happened to SpongeBob?"SpongeBob SquarePantsOctober 13, 20087.666 15"Truth or Square"SpongeBob SquarePantsNovember 6, 20097.658 162010 Kids' Choice AwardsNickelodeon Kids' Choice AwardsMarch 27, 20107.639 17"The Sponge Who Could Fly"SpongeBob SquarePantsMarch 21, 20037.635 18"iGo to Japan"iCarlyNovember 8, 20087.599 19FRED: The MovieNick Original MovieSeptember 18, 20107.597 20"iThink They Kissed"iCarlySeptember 12, 20097.564 21"iPsycho"iCarlyJune 4, 20107.518 222008 Kids' Choice AwardsNickelodeon Kids' Choice AwardsMarch 29, 20087.449 23"iOMG"iCarlyApril 9, 20117.35524"iParty with Victorious"Nick Original MovieJune 11, 20117.316 25The SpongeBob SquarePants MovieNick Original MovieNovember 10, 20067.307 262011 Kids' Choice AwardsNickelodeon Kids' Choice AwardsApril 2, 20117.287 27"Goodbye Zoey?"Zoey 101January 4, 20087.276 28"Big Time School of Rocque"Big Time RushJanuary 18, 20106.77329"iDo"iCarlyOctober 11, 20106.69730"Best Day Ever"SpongeBob SquarePantsNovember 10, 20066.658 31"Trenchbillies"SpongeBob SquarePantsJanuary 29, 20116.553 32"iDate a Bad Boy"iCarlyMay 9, 20096.472 33"Launchtime"/"Haunted Habitat"The Penguins of MadagascarMarch 28, 20096.43934"iGoodbye"iCarlyNovember 23, 20126.430 35"Party Pooper Pants"SpongeBob SquarePantsMay 17, 20026.321 36"iLook Alike"iCarlyMarch 7, 20096.299 372012 Kids' Choice AwardsNickelodeon Kids' Choice AwardsMarch 31, 20126.162 38"Beggin' on Your Knees"VictoriousApril 2, 20116.152 39"Pest of the West"SpongeBob SquarePantsApril 11, 20086.141 402007 Kids' Choice AwardsNickelodeon Kids' Choice AwardsMarch 31, 20076.11541"The Great Patty Caper"SpongeBob SquarePantsNovember 11, 20106.10242"The Monster Who Came to Bikini Bottom"/"Welcome to the Bikini Bottom Triangle"SpongeBob SquarePantsJanuary 28, 20116.05443"Trading Places"Zoey 101January 27, 20086.02344"Sponge-Cano!"/"The Main Drain"SpongeBob SquarePantsJanuary 28, 20116.004
