The N ( Abbr . for '''The Nighttime Network For Teens''') is a Television Channel in the United States aimed at Teenagers and Young Adults , running between 6pm and 6am ET (3pm and 3am PT ).
During the day, the channel is known as Noggin , which is targeted toward pre-schoolers. The channel was founded as Noggin by Viacom and Sesame Workshop , with the latter eventually selling their stake in the company to Viacom.

Initially, The N ran completely Commercial -free, like most of Viacom's other digital cable channels and Disney -owned Disney Channel , the channel broke programs only to run self-promotion spots for the channel and other shows on it, and occasionally to run Music Video s. In May 2004, The N began running commercials for products targeted at the channel's market.

On December 31 , 2007 , 1 The N's sister channel, Nickelodeon GAS , is slated to leave the digital cable channel lineup and become an online-only service, with The N slated to take over Nick GAS's channel position after splitting from Noggin, which will become a 24-hour channel. DirecTV has confirmed that they will air both Noggin and The N. It is unknown if Dish Network , even though it carries Nick GAS, will carry The N in their lineup. 2
