History
Nickelodeon in the Netherlands was Shared with Talpa (TV Channel) (2005-2006; 2007) The Box Comedy (2006-2007) and Comedy Central (2007-2010; 2011).

From December 12, 2016, Nickelodeon can again be seen forever 24 hours a day via Ziggo and since March 1, 2017, also in via other providers forever. In September 2004, it was Announced that John de Mol (aka John De mol Jr., The creator of big brother, and the tv company Endemol.) Had purchased the evening broadcasting time of the dutch Nickelodeon, in order to be able to start his own television channel there in the future, De Mol bought the evening broadcasting time (from 6:00 PM to 2:00 PM) This started on October 9, 2004, with the Netherlands-Macedonia football match, but there was little sign of the purchase during the first half of 2005. The individual football matches were even broadcast under the Nickelodeon flag (with promos and logos such as "Nickelodeon is Oranges"). Nickelodeon's regular programming was only occasionally interrupted for an evening, for a report and review of a football match. The television channel was therefore started as Talpa and that officially happened on Saturday, August 13, 2005. The first day was well viewed, but apart from the football broadcasts, the viewing figures of the other programming lagged behind the competition. Talpa managed to attract a large number of well-known television personalities: including Barend en Van Dorp, Linda de Mol (john de mol's sister), Jack spijkerman, Humberto Tan, Jan Mulder, Caroline Tensen, André Van Duin, Henny Huisman, and Others. On August 12, 2005, Before the Broadcasts had officially started, John de Mol Announced that he would like to start a second Talpa tv channel in 2006 (or at the least early 2007 at the latest).

The channel Talpa was Part of Talpa Media Holding (Talpa TV) a company owned by John De Mol. Other well-known media names from that company are Radio 10 Gold and Juize.FM. through Talpa Producties, the Company made several programs that were developed for its own television channel. The channel was Called Talpa until 15 December 2006, the Latin name for the nocturnal animal the mole, which is a reference to the founder's surname. At that time, On 16 August 2005 or 16 September 2005 to 15 December 2006, they only broadcast in the evening and night hours; During the Day, Nickelodeon in The Netherlands, was shown on the same Channel. On 15 December 2006 to 18 August 2007 (until the end) Talpa/Tien Broadcast 24-hours a day. On September 19, 2006, Talpa Announced a Deal with SBS Broadcasting about the use of the name Tien: Talpa would be renamed Tien From 16 December 2006. A Month later, on October 20 of the same year, the Channel Announced that it would broadcast 24-hours a day. Nickelodeon which Shared the Channel with Talpa, Therefore moved to The Box Comedy. From that day on, the name of the channel was changed to Tien. The Channel had already broadcast serveral promos and announcements of Talpa/Tien on 16 December 2006. The latter was officially launched a day later.

On 16 August 2005 and 16 September 2005 to 16 December 2006, Nickelodeon began time-sharing with Talpa, now airing between 6.00 PM and 2.00 PM.
