I don't think Nick selling their shows to someone else would really solve the problem, atleast when it comes to the future of their new stuff, like Sam and Cat, and The Legend of Korra. Dan Schneider, for example, although he works for Nickelodeon, and his shows are broadcast on nickelodeon, Schneiders Bakery, as we all know actually produces iCarly. It would be a very messy process selling the rights of a new show such as Sam and Cat, to a new channel and possibly a new production company that would want to do things their way, not Dan Schneiders way, since he's contracted with Nickelodeon.

This setup is similar to how english dubbing works in anime, a licensing company owns the rights and distributes an anime, however they'll hire a voice-over production company to do the dub for the anime. This is how it works in most cases, with the exception of Funimation, who not only lisences anime, but is also a full service voice-over production company.

It would seem to Me, that Nick needs to revamp their broadcasting and advertising executives. Either that, or they need to just straighten up and learn to recognize the difference between a "hit" and "miss", iCarly is a hit, and they need to treat it as such!!!
