There are 2 things I've learned about Nickelodeon'...

There are 2 things I've learned about Nickelodeon's weekday matinees, and I'm compelled to share them here. First, these matinees are overwhelmingly popular with senior citizens, and they all love to chit-chatter and talk back at the screen. A lot! Many restlessly fidget and rattle their popcorn bags, and there are often wheezing and coughing fits. (Honestly, it all gets pretty out of control, and the only way to address all of it is to stop the film and scold the entire audience. That ain't gonna happen, so...what can you do?) Second, weekday matinees can be their MOST expensive ticket, because you have to pay an extra $2 - $3 for 2 hours (or more?) at the parking meters downtown. This often drives the total cost to nearly $11 (for non-members), which often makes Nickelodeon's weekday matinees the priciest ticket in town. (Please, I really do like The Nick. I will keep going, and I urge you to go, too. These are just things I want you to keep in mind before you go on a weekday afternoon, and that you won't find mentioned in other reviews here.)
