Hair Salon Shut Down - Nick Jr. Made by Maddie POSTPONED Due To Hair Love Ripoff Controversy

Unfrotunately for Nickelodeon, it looks like Maddie has been sued for copyright infringement of Hair Love although that statement is still debatable thanks to the conversation that has been spreading around everywhere on social media.

Nickelodeon has removed its upcoming Made by Maddie preschool series from its scheduled September 13th premiere date on the Nick Jr. channel and has been postponed to a future date later in the fall. Although the scheduled premiere could still or still not happen.

Nickelodeon and Silvergate Media had issued a statement stating their concerns over this unneccesary controversy, the second that the channel and its parent company have had in the past three months. The two companies have reported that this series is not a clone of the aformentioned Matthew A. Cherry short film and have taken measures and risks because of these complaints.

The series' page on the Nick Jr app and NickJr.com website have also been temporarilly taken down because of this criticism.

Made by Maddie is still happening on the Nick Jr. channel. A new release date for the program has yet to be announced once the complaints have slowed down a bit.
