TEENick tries UGC vehicle on Sunday nights

Nickelodeon's first project that takes a crack at incorporating user-generated content will hit airwaves on September 8 on TEENick before settling into a regular slot on Sundays at 7:30 p.m. Infusing a scripted sitcom structure with submissions from kid viewers, iCarly invites kids to go online and enjoy extras like behind-the-scenes footage, character blogs, polls, forums for emails, questions and comments. But it goes a step beyond and lets them send in videos showcasing their unique talents, weird skills and homemade animated shorts.
