Nickelodeon certainly isn’t as good now as it was when I was a kid. It’s bizarre because it’s incredibly far away from the show and the original design of the characters- but I’m not questioning why a fan made this. Or at least Dom and Mikey have. Harvey certainly has anxiety, with fans speculating that he was Asperger’s. Jhonen Vasquez isn’t someone who likes to give his characters conventional names, most of them being only three or four letters long. I agree that Dog as Anna and Cat as Elsa makes the most sense, although I'd be happy to hear reasons for the opposite. But perhaps I am a hypocrite for refusing to celebrate TMNT gender swaps where they have hair, but loving this. (He was cute anyway, but the bow is adorable. They’re teenagers, they’re turtles, and there is plenty of ninja actions. It must be pretty awesome to have a hard shell if you’re a ninja, but I’d still rather be a human. Even so, I love it being adapted into a cute plaid skirt for this gender-swap. What I admire about the show is that each child has their own unique personality and aren’t defined by what “boys like” and “girls like.” Some of the sisters have typically feminine interests, others typically masculine interests. Doesn’t Doug ever wonder why so many of his classmates have jaundice, extreme nausea, or are part Smurf! It’s a big leap from the original, given that one of them is just wearing their underwear over their costume. Animated shows. I must admit that I don’t have a great knowledge of Avatar: The Last Airbender/The Legend of Korra. Given this influence, it's not surprising that there are many Nickelodeon characters every '90s girl can relate to. This Timantha to me identifies as a girl and lives her life as such. But their bandanas have been tied in a slightly more feminine way, such as Mikey’s bow and Leo/Ralph’s flowing ribbons. This one is very cute. After not giving much praise to several Nick shows, I’m going to buck the trend by saying that I really enjoyed Harvey Beaks.

In the '90s, particularly, most children would turn to Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon for a slew of animated adventures. The silly grins and enthusiasm in their faces say more than their hair or outfits do. What’s not to love? Raph and Leo are apparently too cool for that, going with some long elegant ribbons. The internet was not lying. Personally, I thought the Nickelodeon series was better than the 2003 series. Gerald was a regular character on the classic NickToons show, Hey, Arnold!, serving as the titular character's best friend. I really can’t wait to see the new series in September! Even so, it’s a great episode and boys and girls interests, showing that kids should just like whatever they want.

This version of Timantha is a little older than the one we were introduced to in season two but is dressed a lot more Timmy-esque. It’s not even that big of a leap from the show to here, this is just cute and fun. The other one had a lot of explosions and ninja action, which is great for some, I just found the Nickelodeon series a lot more charming and funny. The animation was pleasing in any case. I didn’t watch a lot of Hey Arnold!, during its original run as my father wouldn’t let us, telling us it “looked stupid.” I did watch it a few years later and recently re-watched the series prior to The Jungle Movie. There is a subtle feminity to these characters, yet they still reflect the personality of each turtle. But it didn’t seem to offer much beyond that. I don’t like gender-swaps where the turtles have hair just because they’re female, since they have no hair as boys and hair doesn’t represent gender. Michelle Gomez. That was entirely his decision. My favorite part of this by far is how grumpy Squidward still looks! My only real point would be that her skirt looks a little too conservative for a ten-year-old. No wonder so many people ship them! They live in the sewers! It’s rather sixties. We learn during a flashback episode that Helga’s crush on Arnold started because he was the first person to show her any act of kindness. Before that tall hair just looked like it could be part of his skull!

I’m not completely sure if the skirt here has been flared out to be more femme or not. Jenny showed a lot of relatable teenage angst. While I have admired gender swaps which stay true to the style of the character, I enjoy that here Squidward is wearing something that she wouldn’t normally wear. He hoped that these characters might get their own series, but Nickelodeon rejected the idea. I assume that the name change of these characters is to represent their change. She looks good for someone in their eighties. Genderswap fan arts have been pretty popular for the classic Nickelodeon cartoon Fairly OddParents, since the cartoon went ahead and did it for them! The Turtles would kick anyone’s behind regardless of their gender! As well as female Arnold, we also get to see a male Helga, Arnold’s bully and love interest. I can firmly say that to show neither looks or is “stupid,” but it actually very emotional and hits on some very hard issues for a kids' show. Despite not containing the title character Doug, I believe the artist did another gender swap involving him, this is a gender swap of some of the secondary characters from the old school Nick Show Doug! If you saw these two girls at the beach, you’d surely know who they were (or at least observe that they looked like or reminded you of SpongeBob and Patrick). I’ve never seen a robot wearing a dog costume wearing a bunny costume before. Sure, Hayley’s style is a little more femme, but they are still the same recognizable characters. If Lincoln were a girl, I’m sure that she would be the same person with the same personality. I can’t help but think that if these two had been female, it would have been an entirely different show (although sadly it probably would have been canceled sooner, given the lower tolerance sensors have for women doing gross stuff).

Their voices were just too annoying for me, even as a kid. Helga was an angry young girl who frequently bullied other students for very small things, including the main character Arnold. She’s still be called GIR, sing the doom song and keep sandwiches in her head. I think it’s nice that the fans see these two together, regardless of gender. His bedroom is a little more femme, with hearts and fluffy things, but the important thing is that this friendship doesn’t end. It’s always been really amazing how much these guys embrace being who they are. This way, Helga certainly can’t call her “tall hair girl,” although she’d probably think of something different and meaner. As well as being fun to draw, envisioning characters in the opposite gender can add another layer to them and make you consider other sides of the cartoon. If these three had been the characters leading the show, would it really have changed that much? They had this rivalry based on Dib’s desire to expose Zim, and Zim’s desire to stop him. Granted, a few male characters have hair, and there are a few bald female characters, but didn’t Lola Bunny have that weird fringe thing?

The sequel can’t come soon enough. She would still be the same person, picking on Doug and trying to make him look stupid in front of his crush. Given Jhonen Vasquez’s often well-developed female characters, this is one cartoon relationship that would have been the same had the main characters been the opposite gender.

Nic… He’s been on our televisions for almost twenty years at this point and while he’s had his down moments, I’m sure we’re all glad that he existed. (This does make you wonder if a show where the two main characters shake their behinds during the opening titles would have been commissioned were they girls.). Although like Breadwinners, I can’t help but wonder if Fanboy and Chum Chum would have had the same reception if it had been two young girls showing everyone their underwear during the title sequence. I love that it’s Nigel who has become the most memorable character, rather than the main character Eliza. It’s a shame, since despite its bright colors and silly names (it’s hard to take a show seriously with characters like Patti Mayonnaise), it dealt with a lot of serious issues including eating disorders and bullying.

I would completely watch her nature shows, knowing that they would be educational and hilarious every single time. This is probably since we see gross-out humor as a mostly male viewed area of comedy, although personally, I’ve met just as many women who liked Ren and Stimpy or Rick and Morty as men. I like that this gender-swap is also humanized because, by cartoon standards, SpongeBob’s appearance could be considered female. Time to get nostalgic and look back at some of the best 90’s and 2000’s Nickelodeon cartoons and shows. For one, why did the vast majority of the cast have oddly colored skin, but some didn’t? Mostly, that he would still be good friends with Clyde! He’s also said that The Tallest would probably just turn the planet into a parking lot, having no real use for it, but that Zim could be the parking lot manager. Given Zim’s obsession with power and being the greatest, I can totally imagine this being how the “Parking Lot Manager” chooses to dress and spend his time.
