Why must this exist?
Many people have been saying that Nickelodeon is starting to improve and may become the best of the three main children's channels(CN,Disney,Nick). It definitely has improved from their terrible years in the 2012-2014 era, but I still can't call it a good channel. They handled Harvey Beaks horribly, not even telling Greenblatt at first. Their bad sitcoms are still airing new episodes such as Game Shakers, Henry Danger, School of Rock and The Thundermans. Their new promos are also completely random.
And now they will probably have another bad show. The Dude Perfect Show will be coming to Nickelodeon later this July. It, of course centers around the YouTube channel Dude Perfect. The series also already aired on CMT. It showcases their lives and shows behind-the-scenes clips of their videos.
I have not seen The Dude Perfect Show yet, or any of the Dude Perfect videos. However, I definitely can't see this being good. There's only very slight chance it will even be passable. During the 2012-2014 era they did stuff like this a lot. There was AwesomenessTV(or Awfulness TV as it should've been called) which was based off a YouTube channel, Fred: The Show, also based off of YouTube, React To That, based on reaction videos, Breadwinners, based off of a YouTube video that wasn't even intended to be a pilot, and Marvin Marvin, which wasn't based on a channel but had an actor from YouTube. These shows were really unoriginal. They relied on already successful internet series just to make their shows more popular. With the exception of Marvin Marvin and Breadwinners, you're wasting time watching these shows, since although they have a lot of changes made to them, they also have many similarities to the YouTube channels.
Since these shows sucked, I would guess that this will also suck. The Dude Perfect Show will have many viewers at first, but after a few episodes kids will get bored and go back to watching SpongeBob and The Loud House. Breadwinners was really successful with ages 2-11 in it's first month, but then it lost viewers and got moved to NickToons. If we have mostly seen the same result for every internet show on Nick, then I don't think there will be much of a change in The Dude Perfect Show, both quality-wise and success-wise.
With shows like these, Nick is proving that despite a minor improvement, they continue to be unoriginal and random. I'm way more excited Welcome To The Wayne than this. I can't say for certain about Cartoon Network, but I think Disney/ Disney Channel is definitely coming on top this year.
 
I would not count Breadwinners, as it was a short that was made for a film festival originally (Midsummer Night Toons) and was later uploaded to Youtube.

It's not even like it went viral either, Nick didn't pick it up because it was popular on Youtube. Unlike Fred or React.
 
Nick trying to be "hip with the kids" again, I see....
 
I think when people talk about Nick improving, they're primarily talking about the animation side of things, because let me tell you, if Welcome to the Wayne becomes as successful as The Loud House, the channel's animation side will be the best it's been in about a decade or so. By now, pretty much everyone agrees Nick's live action shows are cheap, trash (Though Legendary Dudas was kind of good, and that one mystery show from a few months back seemed to have an interesting premise), so people don't tend to focus on it. Same goes for Disney. I always hear stuff about their animated content, but never anything about their Live Action. Their Live Action shows are just as bad as Nickelodeon, only their shows don't come off as cheap as Nick's does. Nick's promos have gotten a lot better since 2015 in my opinion, though the generic bumpers they're showing are boring, it's better than the cringey promos they came up with in 2015/2016 that I don't want to be associated with if it airs on TV.

While there's pretty much no hope for any Nick or Disney Live Action shows, there's always going to be talk about their animation side of things. I could care less about Nick's Live Action, because it's simply not going to change. Whereas, the animation side of things seems can go up, as quickly as it can go down in quality. The main issue with Nick's sitcoms, and Live Action shows are that they try to target them to just pre-teens. And here's the thing, pre-teens couldn't care less about Nick sitcoms. If anything, they're more interested in Youtube "Let's Play" channels, or even worse, "Reaction" channels. This is exactly why Nick is trying to get these shows on the network. They're trying to get their audience back, by using all these tactics that Youtubers use. If Nick just tried to make a sitcom, or show that didn't try to be "relatable" or "trend driven", but rather just an original show, it can go far.
 
@OP tl;dr

tbh the name of the show sounds like tim and eric awesome show great job

nick hasnt been good in years
 
No. Just no. Nick needs to stop this now. No one will ever watch this crap.
 
Something tells me it's going to be a show that will be understood only if you've watched the original source material.

I don't plan to watch this show.

It's just going to be shoved to Nicktoons in a few weeks anyway just like they did with their other sports-related shows.

Nicktoons? That's ironic

Nicktoons has been having a NickSports block on there for years now, plus they air the newer crappy live-action shows in the morning.

I only knew Nicktoons for airing old cartoons form the 90s and the 2000s, and Teennick for being..teen..and having 90s shows on at night. idk why but I still love wathcing Teennick for some reason just because old shows i used to watch are on there.
 
I didn'f even bother watching the trailer and I assume this show is really going to be bad :/
