What is Splat? Nickelodeon could bring back old favorites

By Cox Media Group National Content Desk

The Boomerang channel brings back old classic cartoons like "Tom and Jerry," "Scooby Doo" and "Looney Tunes."

But where can fans catch new classics like "Ren and Stimpy" and "Rugrats?"

Nickelodeon may have the answer.

Nick recently uploaded a video to YouTube that teases old shows on what's being called "The Splat."

The video plays the old Nick theme song while showing clips of the shows many of you grew up on.Viacom, the company that owns Nickelodeon, launched a website, a Twitter page and a Facebook page.

There is no word on whether "The Splat" is a new channel, programming block or even an online channel.

There is also no sign of when the programming will be available, MTV, another channel owned by Viacom, reported.
