''U-Pick Live'' is a program that aired on Nickelodeon from October 14, 2002 to May 27, 2005 on weekday afternoons from Nickelodeon Headquarters in New York City's Times Square. Starting at 5:00 p.m. EST to 7:00 p.m. EST. The show allowed viewers to pick via internet voting the Nickelodeon shows, usually cartoons, that would air. The hosts of the show also took part in sketches and gags, often including members of the studio audience and celebrity guests. Interviews with celebrity guests and musical performances were also frequent features. It originally was U-Pick Friday from 1999 to late 2000, hosted by Henry and June of ''KaBlam!''. The concept of U-Pick originated with the ''Nick in the Afternoon'' block in 1994. After U-Pick Live's cancellation, the concept of user-chosen programming would not return until its comeback as part of ''The '90s Are All That'' in 2011. == Cast == * Brent Popolizio as himself * Candace Bailey as herself * Jeff Sutphen as Pick Boy, a "Super Hero" that "picks" people from the audience. Pick Boy is egotistic yet naïve. Pick Boy became a target to many polls at nick.com such as "What kind of hairstyle should Pick Boy Have?". Despite his popularity, Pick Boy was kicked-off the show ''literally'' when he was voted the most in a poll asking "Who should be kicked off from the show forever?". Pick Boy was brought back to the show next season. After ''U-Pick Live'' ended, Pick Boy made many appearances in ads, 2006-2007 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, and ME:TV. He made an appearance at the Democratic National Convention in August 2008 for Nickelodeon's Kids Pick the President campaign and at the 2011 San Diego Comic-Con. * Antonio Neves as himself (2002–2004), best known by fans on the show for playing the Nicktoon tapes and using extreme stunts to deliver the tape.
