Also depends what sort of content you like. New CN has a couple really great story-focused cartoons that can be both light hearted and deep.

Old CN had better shows for just mindless fun. They're non-sequitur in a fun and charming way.

But 90% of old Nick and Cartoon Network were great. You could watch one show after the next and love every one. Now there's only a couple.

This was probably made in 09, when CN actually was really shit because it only released live action shows that year.
