Which of these old Nickelodeon shows should be reincarnated?

Foolish Earth monkey! None are so worthy as ZIM!!!
None of them, really. Television has proved time and time again that remakes never work out.
If there was one, I'd like to see some more Oh Yeah! Cartoons. Some chance for up-and-coming animators who actually feel like succumbing to Nick's evil.

One of the choices on the poll, Ren and Stimpy, is already being brought back, although not on Nickelodeon.
I agree that remakes seldom work very well, the only time I like to see a show be brought back from the dead is when they can get a good majority (if not all) of the original talent back. Even then, often the new episodes of a reincarnated show simply don't live up to the old. There are exceptions, but that's the general pattern I tend to see.

I didn't mean remakes, I meant that they would put it back on air and continue episodes

What? No 'all of the above' choice? (Though I didn't care much for "Brothers Flub".)

I spoke imprecisely, I simply meant shows that are put back on the air after a long (longer than the normal break between seasons) hiatus. Of course, in the case of most (not all) Nicktoons there's not much in the way of continuity between episodes anyway, so there's not too much of a difference between a continuation and an actual remake.

Invader Zim! With ALL THE SAME WRITERS, ARTISTS, VOICE ACTORS, ECT.
I don't wan't what happened to Dexter's Laboratory happening to my beautiful/ugly-yet-so-very-vey-funny Invader Zim.

I really liked all of those choices. Rocko is what I consider the best show ever, but I voted for ZIM because it had a shorter life span and has such a large fan base.

I have much respect for Rocko, but ZIM SHOULD HAVE NEVER LEFT!!! Are we ever even going to see the unaired eps???
JERKS!

Rocko, Zim, and the Beavers are clearly the class of that group, but I wouldn't object to any of them being resurrected. Still, I voted for Rocko, mostly because I watched it so much.

Hard call, as I love Zim. Rocco turned me on to Nicktoons, though, and I always felt it ended a bit too soon. It got a little bad near the end, what with the little kids that looked like the characters (Baby's Heffer and Filbert), but it never really had a real ending.

Well, I like ZIM and Rocko, and of course I agree those should be bought back.
I'm voting for Angry Beavers, though.

Wow, I'm surprised and happy to see so much Rocko love here, I voted for him in large part because I figured that nobody else would. I figured all the votes would go to Zim, since it had such a short run and so many people have been so vocal about their displeasure at its cancellation on these boards. While Zim is in first (deservedly, in my opinion) I'm happy to see Rocko in such a close second.

Rocko's Modern Life is the only NickToon I've ever liked... even Invader Zim was boring to me. Rocko just didn't have that overly pronounced... um... "NickToon-nes" about it that scares me back over to Cartoon Network's Dexter, PPG, and Jonny Bravo.
