Dan Schneider

Dan Schneider is responsible for Nickelodeon's transition from decent cartoon channel into a smorgasbord of live action sitcoms geared towards childrenl. Schneider's works include Drake & Josh, All That, Sam & Cat, Victorious, iCarly, The Amanda Show, Zoey 101, Good Burger, Henry Danger and, most recently, Game Shakers.

Early life

Before his time as a director, he used to be in actor for such shit like Make the Grade and Better Off Dead.

Television career

This was where he truly blossomed into such a paragon of children's entertainment

1. . PROFIT!

Here's a quick list of summaries about all of his shows.

All That

A comedy sketch show in 1994 trying to rip off Mad TV and SNL, while failing because they didn't have Christopher Walken. That and they failed in other things too. Several actors would go off and make their own shows once the shit ended such as manda Bynes and the duo of Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell. The show was brought back to life because Viacom wanted more money in 2002, then was killed again for good in 2005. The first few seasons were at least trying, but the last ones in 2002-2005 were abominations of the highest caliber.

Kenan & Kel

The first real Schneider sitcom, starring the two guys of All That. Each episode begins with a little description to set up the plot, shenanigans ensue, Kenan's full of himself, Kel's a pussy-retard that has an orange soda fetish, and the little sister has a crush on Kel. They also had a only one movie of little worth to close out the series, and the theme song was made by washout rapper Coolio. Simply put, it's just two bros wanting to succeed in life and failing at it.

Guys Like Us

The first sitcom by Schneider not on Nickelodeon and not for children, which is basically the plot that Two and a Half Men stole, with two cuckolded bachelors having to take care of a 6-year-old boy since his dad got a job overseas to Japan. That premise would be stolen by Schneider again to use foriCarly.

The Amanda Show

An Amanda Show skit: My Beautiful Big Toe.

Another sketch show with good ol' Amanda Bynes along with other people no one cares about. Same deal as All That, except with somehow even shittier sketches, which had an 'I'm so random' spew-inducing style of comedy.

What I Like About You

The last sitcom he made that wasn't on Nickelodeon, starring Amanda again. Another comedic driveling crapbag of tricks, in which Amanda would be the only one recognizable by any fan, and Schneider's last show of Amanda.

Drake & Josh

What many consider to be some of Schneider's best work, with two brothers at each other's throats all the time about pointless family shit and because they have opposite personalities. One's a suave, heartbreaking casanova-wannabe who's dumb as a doorstop, the other's a stickler for rules and seizure-sufferer that can't get a girl to save his sex life, add in Miranda Cosgrove; and you have a recipe for some of the best comedy this side of- Wait, My Brother And Me did the same sort of "opposite brothers" premise but with? Never mind. The brothers still made appearances in other Schneider shitfests, while Drake works on his failure band and Josh is stuck on Vine.

Zoey 101

is about a girl trying to fit into boarding school. Yep, that's it, with the black guy, the nerd, the dweeb that hooks up with her in the end, the popular boy, the Cliche Gang is all here. Dan makes a guest appearance in the last episode, rapidly becoming the Stan Lee of children's shows.

iCarly

Moar info: iCarly.

Victorious

Moar info: Victorious.

Sam & Cat

Combine the iCarly dyke and the Victorious retard and you've got even more.

Racy rumors

The show had led to an early cancellation thanks to drama from having Jennette's boobs leaked on the Internet and having Nickelodeon. That and there were rumors of the ditz-dyke team butting heads over it. The show was put on hold, then inevitably canceled on July 14th, 2014. To this day, the stupids of the Internet still think their argument got the show canceled after only one season.

Henry Danger

Oh, it really is a goofier version of Batman and Robin if Robin was the focus?

Game Shakers

Sky Whale isn't just in the show, it's a real game you can actually play. Why anyone would willingly play a game in which you're a narwhal bouncing around collecting donuts is unknown.

The latest from the Schneider's Bakery oven. It stars two 12-year-old girls

The plot revolves around two little girls who made a shitty-looking mobile game involving narwhals, which inexplicably became popular after being made available for download on the Internet (in the scripted show, not in the real world, obviously). The first episode has numerous cameo appearances from real-life YouTube video game reviewers, proving once again that e-celebs will do anything for attention.

The show also features the return of Kel from Kenan & Kel, who apparently has nothing better to do after losing out on Saturday Night Live to Kenan.

Look for Game Shakers to be canceled faster than Sam & Cat.

In March 2016, Nickelodeon renewed Game Shakers for a second cringe-inducing season. This ties it with Sam & Cat, at forty episodes ordered by Nickelodeon for each. Hopefully the plug will mercifully be pulled before all forty episodes are produced, as was the case with Sam & Cat.
