TeenNick is an American pay television channel owned by Nickelodeon Group, a sub-division of the Paramount Media Networks division of Paramount Skydance Corporation. Aimed primarily at teens and tweens, its lineup includes a variety of live-action series from sister channel Nickelodeon. The channel launched on September 28, 2009, merging programming from two defunct blocks which also targeted a teenage audience: TEENick on Nickelodeon and The N on Noggin. Before its launch, TeenNick's channel space was held by Nick GAS (March 1, 1999 – December 31, 2007) and a 24-hour version of The N (December 31, 2007 – September 28, 2009).
The TeenNick channel was first announced in early 2009, and its name was originally spelled as "TEENick" much like the Nickelodeon block. Nick Cannon, the original host of the TEENick block, was described in publicity materials as the "chairman of TeenNick", as well as its programming consultant. Cannon also hosted several shows on the channel, including TeenNick Top 10.
As of November 2023, TeenNick is available to approximately 44 million pay television households in the United States—down from its peak of 75 million households in 2013.
