On This Day in 2007 | Just Jordan Premiered on Nickelodeon


On this day 13 years ago, Just Jordan, starring Lil JJ premiered on Nickelodeon!

Just Jordan stars stand-up comedian Lil' JJ as Jordan Lewis, a teen who has moved to Los Angeles from Little Rock. He has to work in his gruff grandfather's diner, and survive with a silly younger sister, a critical cousin, and his over-protective Mom who seems to know all his misdeeds before he even conceives of them.

The series originally aired on Nick USA from 2007-2008 as a part of the network's TEENick programming block lineup and ran for 30 episodes over two seasons.

Just Jordan co-starred Eddy Martin (Fred: The Movie, Glee) as Joaquin Osmando Montez, Justin Chon (The Twilight Saga) as Tony Lee, Raven Goodwin (Glee, Everybody Hates Chris, Malcolm in the Middle) as Tangie Cunningham, Kristen Combs (School Gyrls) as Monica Lewis, Shania Accius (Moesha, The Parkers) as Pamela "Pam" Cunningham-Lewis, Beau Billingslea (The Last: Naruto the Movie, Star Trek Continues, Married... with Children, Mad About You) as Grant Cunningham, Chelsea Harris (Baby Daddy, Modern Family) as Tamika Newsome, and Chelsea Tavares (Unfabulous, The Middle, Fright Night) as Autumn Williams.

Just Jordan = underrated show. Don't @ me.

TurboNick jumps aboard MS Vista platform

Nickelodeon has confirmed it will offer its kids broadband video service TurboNick on the Windows Vista platform when the latter launches at the end of the month.

TurboNick will be launched on Media Center for Windows Vista, allowing Nickelodeon's audience to access TurboNick using a remote for the first time.

When Windows Vista starts on January 30 TurboNick users will have access to a video catalogue of Nickelodeon content by browsing either the channels, shows or Nickelodeon characters themselves. There is also an option for users to create their own personalised playlists, rate video content and play trivia challenges and games based on Nickelodeon properties.

Nick content available through the partnership includes hundreds of clips in addition to full-length Nicktoons, including SpongeBob SquarePants, Avatar and Jimmy Neutron, as well as live-action series from The Amanda Show to Zoey 101.

The TurboNick service also goes behind the scenes with TEENick, which features online exclusives, celebrity interviews and extended versions of select kids titles.

Steve Youngwood, executive VP of digital media for Nickelodeon and MTVN Kids and Family Group, said the launch gives audiences a brand new way to interact with Nickelodeon's shows. "We are always looking to better our consumers' experiences. This is the latest entertainment platform on which we are able to extend our programming and content offerings for kids and families," he said.

Nickelodeon recently launched TurboNick 2.0 on Nick.com, its broadband video platform, which offers streaming video, customised playlists, content in multiple languages and the ability to search the Nickelodeon content library.
