What’s It About?
TeenNick is a site that offers teens an opportunity to watch their favorite and most popular television shows, ranging from Degrassi to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Full House. Along with fun shows, the site also offers quirky games, quizzes, a blog, message board, and social networking space. Puzzle and scavenger games challenge kids to strategize and memorize, while quizzes question love, music, and pop-culture.
Is It Any Good?
TeenNick is a fun site where kids can make friends, watch popular television shows, and play games. While it's important to communicate with teens about Internet safety and appropriate online behavior, the website does a good job of maintaining a positive play space for teens. Participants are not allowed to use hate speech, flare, discuss topics related to sex or violence, or share personally identifiable information.
Message boards -- those centered around specific shows are the most popular -- give teens a place to connect and discuss and stretch their communication skills. There's even a "Talk to the Chairman" board where kids can post suggestions on how to make Teen Nick better. If a post is removed, teens can check their profile to find out why it was taken down.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about some of the mature themes covered in the television shows. Discuss teen pregnancy, bullying, and the consequences of drug use.
Families can also talk about Internet safety and the risk of chatting with strangers online.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
