  • Nickelodeon Weinerville was an American television program on Nickelodeon that was produced from 1993 to 1994, aired in re-runs to 1997. The show was based around a giant puppet stage which was designed to look like a city, called Weinerville. The show was hosted by Marc Weiner. Weinerville was a totally outrageous half hour variety show that used classic elements of kids programming, which included puppeteering and interaction with a live studio audience, to entertain kids and their parents. It commanded the attention of such shows as Entertainment Tonight, Good Morning America and The Early Show for being television's first and only half-man/half-puppet variety show where kids are transformed into puppet citizens. The show received numerous award nominations, including two CableACE Award nominations, and has received critical acclaim from: The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, the Daily News, the New York Post, Newsday, TV Guide and the Los Angeles Times. The show premiered on July 11, 1993. During the first season, all episodes ran in a two-hour marathon every Sunday. However, Weinerville quickly gained so much popularity that in the middle of the first season Nickelodeon began running the show on weekday afternoons. For the second season, which premiered on September 5, 1994, the episodes aired daily. The show was so popular that Marc and his characters appeared as the hosts for the Nick New Year's Eve '94 and '95 marathons, with the latter marathon including the premiere of the show's first special, The Weinerville New Year's Special: Lost in the Big Apple. Two more specials, The Weinerville Chanukah Special and The Weinerville Election Special: From Washington B.C., followed in 1995 and 1996, respectively. However, the show was not given a third season as Nickelodeon was switching from its family-friendly identity to airing edgy, sarcastic, and somewhat subversive shows, and a puppet show did not fit the new direction. Rerunrs continued to air until June 30, 1997, although the Chanukah special was re-aired on December 21st of that year.
