Editing KaBlam! (section)

=== Regular shorts ===
Some of these shorts air more frequently and consistently than others.

==== Henry and June ====

The animated hosts of ''KaBlam!'' who turn the pages of a [[comic book]] (changes with each episode) to reveal the next [[cartoon]] or alternative animation, as well as being involved in [[subplot]]s of their own between the shorts. These shorts were directed by Mark Marek.

;Characters
* Henry and June are the co-hosts of ''KaBlam!'' and are depicted as comic book characters who emerge from the eponymous publication to act as the viewer's guides. The laid-back Henry is voiced by [[Noah Segan]] and the eccentric June is voiced by [[Julia McIlvaine]].
* Mr. B. Foot is a giant [[Bigfoot|Sasquatch]] who works on the show. His hobbies include sleeping, injuring Henry, and unexpectedly stealing the spotlight. However, under the rage and bluster, he is not a terrible creature; he never injures June. One episode reveals his ability as an accomplished drummer. He once spoke in the episode, "A Little Dab'll Do Ya".
* Mr. Fred Stockdale is the elderly network executive in charge of ''KaBlam!'' He acts rather [[dementia|senile]], and will do anything to get ''KaBlam!'' good ratings—including firing someone or getting Henry into many physical accidents. His granddaughter Dawn says he has never been the same since ''[[Charlie's Angels]]'' was canceled.
* Henry's mother shows her love for her son in an exaggerated way. In "Cramming Cartoons Since 1627", her name is revealed to be Lois.
* Mr. Jimmy McGee appeared twice as a co-host of June on ''KaBlam!'' He gets in fights with Henry's mom. Appears to be a parody of [[Ed McMahon]]. His catchphrase is "Ahooga!". Voiced by show writer [[Robert Mittenthal]].

==== Sniz & Fondue ====
{{Main|Sniz & Fondue}} Began: Season 1 
Ended: Season 3

A pair of ferret roommates who often get on each other's nerves. Sniz is the younger kid ferret that is very hyperactive, and quite a troublemaker of the duo, while Fondue is the older teenage ferret, who is the nervous, yet intelligent one. There is also Snuppa and Bianca, Sniz and Fondue's roommates. From mid-1997 (around KaBlam's second season) until Sniz and Fondue ended production in late 1998 (around ''KaBlam!''s third season). Due to its [[Funbag Animation Studios|production company]] going to work on a [[Watership Down (1999 TV series)|television adaptation of ''Watership Down'']] as well as creator Michael Pearlstein leaving the show out of frustration, Sniz & Fondue was taken off of the ''KaBlam!'' roster after season 3. The show was created by Michael Pearlstein. The pilot "Psyched for Snuppa" was produced in 1992 by Stretch Films and [[Jumbo Pictures]], and was directed by [[John R. Dilworth]], creator of [[Cartoon Network]]'s ''[[Courage the Cowardly Dog]]''. Unfortunately, John R. Dilworth, [[Jim Jinkins]], and David Campbell were only involved in the pilot, but later all had no involvement with the rest of ''Sniz & Fondue'' when it became a part of ''KaBlam!''. Reasons were that ''Doug'' creator Jim Jinkins and David Campbell have officially moved their jobs to Disney when they purchased Jumbo Pictures, and John R. Dilworth would later work on other projects, such as creating ''Courage the Cowardly Dog'' for Cartoon Network in 1999.

==== Action League Now!====
{{Main|Action League Now!}} Began: Season 1 
Ended: Season 4

Filmed in "[[Chuckimation]]", in which the characters/props are moved by unseen hands or thrown from off-camera (interspersed with occasional [[stop motion|stop motion animation]]). ''Action League Now!'' featured a group of [[superhero]]es, played by custom-made [[action figure]]s, who fight crime in [[suburb]]ia despite being total idiots. The four superheroes are The Flesh, Thundergirl, Stinky Diver, and Meltman. Considered to be the most successful ''KaBlam!'' short, it briefly became a spin-off series in 2001. ''Action League Now!'' is the only short to have a new episode with every showing of ''KaBlam!'' and it served as the centerpiece of ''KaBlam!''. All of the characters on the shorts were voiced by personalities from radio station [[WDVE]] in [[Pittsburgh]]. The show was created by Robert Mittenthal, [[Will McRobb and Chris Viscardi|Will McRobb]], and [[Albie Hecht]].

==== Life with Loopy ====
Began: Season 1

Ended: Season 4

The life of a preteen boy Larry and his strange experiences with his imaginative and adventurous younger sister Loopy. The characters were animated with stop-motion puppet bodies, but their heads were created with metal and their features were magnetic. The show was created by British-born Stephen Holman, who previously created ''Joe Normal'' for [[MTV]]'s ''[[Liquid Television]]'', and later created ''[[Phantom Investigators]]'' on [[Kids' WB]].

===== Characters =====
* Lupicia "Loopy" Cooper is an imaginative young girl with a knack for discovering surreal things, such as a world under the sofa. While she is often discouraged by Larry whenever she goes out to adventure, she does never let that stop her. Loopy is voiced by Danielle Judovits.
* Larry Cooper is Loopy's intelligent brother. Much like Lassie, Larry knows every detail of Loopy's adventures and narrates all of them, although he is not always there.
* Mrs. Cooper is Loopy and Larry's mother. She is more intelligent, but one episode reveals that she was a secret agent.
* Mr. Cooper is Loopy and Larry's father. He is more of the "laid-back" kind of guy, but one episode reveals he loses his temper when he receives bills.

==== Prometheus and Bob ====
Began: Season 1

Ended: Season 4

Also known as '''''The Prometheus and Bob Tapes'''''. A [[stop motion]] segment featuring the camera-recorded mission logs of Prometheus, an alien who comes to Earth attempting to teach a caveman, Bob, everyday things. From the use of fire to the act of [[ice skating]], the result is usually a failure by the mischievous third cast member, who was a simple monkey. The show was created by Cote Zellers.

The introduction, done in a mock government format, describes the events as having occurred "900,000 years ago".

===== Characters =====
* Prometheus is a gaunt purple [[Extraterrestrials in fiction|alien]] of advanced intelligence who speaks with a hollow sounding voice. He attempts to educate Bob, a [[caveman]], as an experiment recorded on his remote-controlled camera. Prometheus is often injured in [[slapstick]] ways due to Bob's low intelligence.
* Bob is a babbling caveman. He once was completely covered in hair, but now has none because of a laser incident in the first clip. He also has a tendency to panic when frightened.
* The Monkey is a mischievous monkey who usually interferes with Prometheus' attempts to educate Bob, intentionally or otherwise. However, he has, on occasion, attempted to assist him.
* The Narrator recites the opening to the short, and the introduction to the short's "tape": "Tape [insert number here]", and finally, "End".

==== The Off-Beats ====
{{main|The Off-Beats}} Began: Season 1

Ended: Season 2

A series that centers on a group of unpopular friends and their main rivals, a popular clique known as "The Populars". It originally aired during Nick's commercial breaks as stand-alone shorts to promote the premiere of ''KaBlam!'',{{Citation needed|date=May 2015}} and it was also released on a 1996 ''[[Rugrats]]'' videotape, "Tommy Troubles". The show was created by [[Mo Willems]], who later created ''[[Sheep in the Big City]]'' for [[Cartoon Network]]. The show was taken off the ''KaBlam!'' roster after season 2 because Mo Willems wanted to move over to Cartoon Network. However, The Off-Beats officially ended as a whole with a half-hour Valentine's Day special premiering in 1999, which was the last episode of the Off-Beats produced, as Mo Willems finally left Nickelodeon in 1999, and moved to Cartoon Network to create ''Sheep in the Big City'' in 2000.
