Longtime Nickelodeon personality [[Nick Cannon]] (declared in publicity materials as the "Chairman of TeenNick") has a presence on the network, along with new programming exclusive to the network. TeenNick's afterschool to primetime blocks have been divided into two distinct blocks:
  
−  
−
*3pm-9pm ET - Programming meant for early to mid teenage audiences (13-16), mainly older originals from The N era, and acquired sitcoms and other teen dramas.
  
−
*9pm-12am ET - Programming meant for older teen and young adult audiences (17 and up), including new episodes of TeenNick programming and acquired programming.
  
−
*12am-2am ET (Coming Fall 2011) - Nickelodeon programming from the 90s, including All That, Kenan and Kel, The Amanda Show, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, and Clarissa Explains it All.

Currently, it is expected that most of TeenNick's current programming will remain on the network with some slight changes for both scheduling purposes and possible new future programming, including the acquisition of cable rights for early 2000's sitcom One on One and a shift of former Adult Swim program American Dad, which began to air on the network in October 2009. [[The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air]], a longtime mainstay of The N moved to Disney XD in September 2009 upon the expiration of Viacom's carriage of the series.

When the channel originally debuted on 1 April 2002, The N ran from 6:00PM-6:00AM (North American Eastern Time Zone) / 5:00PM-5:00AM (Central Time Zone), sharing time on the same channel with [[Noggin]], which had started as a service of [[Viacom]] and the Children's Television Workshop as a mix of a channel meant to show CTW and [[Nick Jr.]]'s archived programming.[[File:The_N.gif|thumb|left|90px|Former The N logo, from it's launch on 1 April 2002 until 4 October 2007.]]

By 2002 however as Viacom showcased its own programming and made clear that they wanted Nick Jr. to compete with longtime CTW partner [[PBS Kids]], CTW, by then known as Sesame Workshop, decided to reduce their interest in the network due to several factors, including the network's primetime ratings with "retro programming" to appeal to both [[baby boomer]]s and young children not being as high as Viacom or Sesame Workshop expected them to be. With this move, MTV Networks was free to launch the concept of The N.

In July 2011, TeenNick began carrying programs originally filmed for high-definition broadcast in a letterboxed format, due to the absence of an HD simulcast feed of the channel.

In August 2007, MTV Networks announced the discontinuation of The N's sister network [[Nickelodeon Games and Sports]], which by that point had lost all of its original programming and was reduced to airing few of the Nickelodeon game shows which were the impetus for launching Nick GAS in the first place. MTV Networks decided to retain the satellite space and split Noggin and The N into two separate channels on 31 December 2007, with The N taking the place of Nick GAS.

On 31 December 2007 Noggin regained their full channel again after The N took over Nick GAS's channel slot. DirecTV did not make the exchange until 7:25AM Eastern/6:25AM Central for unknown reasons. Most digital cable viewers saw no problems with the transfer from Nick GAS to The N, beyond some electronic program guide listings still showing Nick GAS's programming schedule or all programs under the titles ''Sign off'' or ''Off Air'', precluding the setup of Digital Video Recorder recordings for The N's programming.

For satellite viewers however, the conversion from Nick GAS to The N was not seamless. Subscribers to Dish Network were still receiving Nick GAS's regular programming, while the Noggin/The N timeshare continued as it had since 2002 on Channel 169, likely due to technical issues on Dish's end.
