Official Encantos press release via Business Wire:

Encantos’ Bilingual Education Brand Canticos Wins the 2020 Kidscreen Award for Best Digital Preschool Web / App Series


The cast of Canticos (Graphic: Business Wire)

February 12, 2020 08:30 AM Eastern Standard Time

CULVER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Encantos, the award-winning B-Corp creating family entertainment education brands, announced that its bilingual education brand Canticos was awarded the 2020 Kidscreen Award for Best Digital Preschool Web / App Series (Branded). This is the second consecutive year that Canticos wins the Kidscreen award in this category. The Kidscreen Award winners were announced during the Kidscreen 2020 Summit in Miami at a special presentation on February 12th.

An Emmy-nominated series that is beloved by kids, parents, & educators, Canticos makes learning two languages (English and Spanish) fun for preschoolers while helping them develop early education skills needed for a successful start in Kindergarten. All over the world, nursery rhymes and songs have been used to introduce young children to early literacy and math concepts, to build social skills through singing and dancing, and to create cross-generational bonds through the preservation of these commonly known songs. Canticos combines the power of nursery rhymes with the benefits of bilingualism to provide children with an innovative learning experience.

Led by its three lead “Little Chickies / Los Pollitos” characters Ricky Chickie, Kiki Chickie and Nicky Chickie and supported by an ensemble cast of adorable characters, Canticos brings to life the most beloved nursery rhymes and songs across the Spanish-speaking world in a musical, bilingual way. From Latino classics like "Los pollitos" ("Little Chickens") to rhymes like "Itsy Bitsy Spider" ("La araña chiquita") to popular hits like La Bamba, kids and families can enjoy singing along in English and Spanish. Each nursery rhyme is sung in English and then immediately followed by a replay of events while it is sung in Spanish, with early learning concepts woven throughout such as letters, numbers, words, etc. Launched in 2016, Canticos is now the leading bilingual education brand offering award-winning books, consumer products, digital apps, music, sing-along videos, toys and more. Canticos can be found across Nickelodeon properties including Nick Jr., Nick Jr.com, Noggin as well as YouTube.

Spanish is the second-most spoken language in the world and Hispanics are the largest racial or ethnic minority group in the United States making up 18% of the population. At nearly 60 million people, the United States has the second-largest Latino population in the world after Mexico and it is larger than countries such as Colombia, Spain and Argentina. Today, more than one-in-four of the nation’s newborns are Hispanic and in 18 states and the District of Columbia, Latino children account for at least 20% of public school kindergarten students.

Increasing, parents and educators are recognizing the benefits of being bilingual. Studies have shown that bilingual children were better at solving puzzles compared to monolingual children. A New York Times report on these studies declared that being bilingual “can have a profound effect on your brain, improving cognitive skills not related to language and even shielding against dementia in old age.”

“The goal of Canticos is to bring families together through a shared love of languages, music and culture,” said Susie Jaramillo, President and Chief Creative Officer, Encantos. “I wanted to create something beautiful and fun to celebrate nursery rhymes with kids of all backgrounds. We couldn’t be more excited to be recognized by Kidscreen with this award.”

What Did You Think of the New 'The Substitute' Episode 'Asher Angel'? | Nickelodeon Fan Poll

What did you think of the brand new The Substitute episode #106, guest starring Asher Angel? Vote in the poll and sound off in the comments below!


In the all new The Substitute episode "Asher Angel", musician and movie star Asher Angel (Camp Nick, Shazam!, Andi Mack) is disguised as a snooty former child genius, an obnoxious world record holder, and an overeager competitive eater! (#107)


From ComicBook:

Shazam! Director Makes Fun of Asher Angel's "Adult" Transformation

Shazam! star Asher Angel is no stranger to making the transformation from young person to adult, having appeared as Billy Batson in the 2019 DC Comics movie. Angel "transformed" into Zachary Levi when he said the magic word in that film, but the young actor made a different kind of adult transformation earlier this week, appearing on Nickelodeon's The Substitute. In the series, a hidden camera TV show in the vein of "Undercover Boss," celebrities are transformed into very different looking people and disguised to fool unsuspecting students in classrooms as eccentric and mean substitute teachers. Asher Angel appeared on this week's new episode in a very different looking get up and his Shazam! director had something to say.

Nickelodeon posted a tease of what Angel would look like in the new episode which David F. Sandberg teased looked nothing like Zachary Levi, but himself. The director tweeted: "Here I was thinking an older Asher Angel would look like Zachary Levi when clearly I should have played Shazam all along." Get a look at his hilarious transformation, which certainly does look Sandberg-esque, below!


Sandberg, Angel, and Levi will all reunite later this year for the sequel even though it's not scheduled to be released until April 1, 2022. Levi has previously lobbied to film the sequel to the movie quickly so that the young actors involved don't grow up too quickly.

“If we don’t shoot another movie real quick, then they’re just gonna be men," Levi said of his co-stars Asher Angel and Jack Dylan Grazer. "There’s no point in saying ‘Shazam’ to transform, they’re already transformed! So that’s all I can tell you about the sequel, but I’m very excited to get into it, making it, and I hope you all enjoy it when we do.”

Speaking in a past interview with Backstory Magazine, Sandberg hinted towards the return of classic villain Mister Mind, included as an Easter egg in Shazam!'s post-credit scene, and even more of the "Shazam Family" that made their big screen debut in the 2019 movie.

"It feels like we could do more with the Shazam family," Sandberg said. "We just introduced them, but you could explore how they work as a family of heroes. And we threw in a little mid-credits scene with Mister Mind, and you could go down that road. Or you could introduce another villain. There are plenty of ones to choose from in the Shazam world."

Shazam 2 will arrive in theaters about three and a half months after the Black Adam film, which stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the titular antihero, who also happens to be Shazam's rival. Black Adam is scheduled to be released on December 22, 2021.

The Official SpongeBob Twitter Trolls the 'Sonic the Hedgehog' Movie

$

The SpongeBob SquarePants Twitter trolls the upcoming live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie with their own "redesign" of the iconic children's character.


SpongeBob SquarePants is an animated comedy show airing on Nickelodeon since 1999, following the adventures and shenanigans of the titular sponge in the underwater town of Bikini Bottom. The show is immensely popular and one of the defining cartoons of a generation, as its memorable characters and quirky writing that can get laughs out of fans of all ages still permeates pop culture today.

Sonic the Hedgehog, an upcoming live-action movie based on the similarly iconic video game franchise, made headlines and punchlines for the original design of its main character, which was so heavily criticized that Sonic was completely redesigned, a move that set back Paramount Pictures about $5 million. Eventually, the eerily life-like Sonic was replaced by a more cartoonish version that more closely resembled the games, staying faithful to the one created by Yuji Naka and Naoto Oshima, and was much more positively received by fans.

The official SpongeBob Twitter posted an image (above) of two side-by-side depictions of the undersea fry cook with the caption: "If SpongeBob were the #SonicMovie." On the left, a hideously realistic SpongeBob with unsettlingly human-like eyes, visibly hairy legs, and a row of terribly realistic human teeth - Sonic's teeth were one of the things fans found most unnerving about that first trailer, and the image of SpongeBob perfectly captures the creepiness of that part of the design. Of course, the leg stubble on the faux SpongeBob just might take it to a whole other level; on the right, a more familiar SpongeBob strikes the same pose.

Sonic the Hedgehog, starring Ben Schwartz as Sonic along with Jim Carrey and Westworld's James Marsden, releases this Valentine's Day after the redesign caused the film to be delayed by three months. In the series of video games, Sonic is an anthropomorphic hedgehog with super speed, whose main goal is usually to collect rings and stop the evil Dr. Robotnik. The 2020 film has Sonic leaving his alternate dimension and entering ours, where his incredible speed causes a power outage, alerting the government to his presence, who promptly send Robotnik (Carrey) on his trail. With the recent release of Detective Pikachu, another live-action video game adaptation with some unsettling depictions of the usually adorable Pokemon, the original trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog was so widely ridiculed for Sonic's appearance that the drastic redesign had to be announced.

Although Sonic's director Jeff Fowler had his nerves about the redesign, the ultimate product was a clear improvement, and as some suspected, was the original intention of the artists before the studio intervened. Some fans worried about the amount of work these artists were asked to do in the relatively short three months, but when other brands and shows are jumping in on the joke, something has to be done.

The timing of SpongeBob's trolling is certainly meant to coincide with Sonic's release this Friday. Both Nickelodeon and Paramount are owned by ViacomCBS.

SpongeBob SquarePants himself also has upcoming movie. The 3D film, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run, which dropped a new trailer during this year's Super Bowl, will see SpongeBob and Patrick go on a massive search after SpongeBob's beloved pet Gary the Snail goes missing. The movie is set to be released during Memorial Day weekend. The series, which is currently celebrating 20 years on air with the "Best Year Ever", also has a couple of spin-offs in the works: Kamp Koral, following 10-year-old SpongeBob SquarePants during his summer at sleepaway camp, is also slated to premiere on Nickelodeon during Summer 2020, and an untitled spin-off which will focus on Squidward Tentacles, which will debut on Netflix.

It's always interesting to see how the internet absorbs elements of popular culture and adapts them into something new. While the original Sonic movie design is no more, the tweet from the official SpongeBob account shows that it will never be forgotten. It's likely to live on eternally, like so many other popular memes. Of course, the Sonic design will should also be forever remembered as a warning to movie studios about the dangers of veering too far from the source material that fans are familiar with. Because things could quickly get ugly! Let's just hope this is the last time we see SpongeBob SquarePants with human teeth - and the last time we're reminded that Sonic the Hedgehog almost featured its titular character with human teeth.

A range of Avatar: The Last Airbender themed Valentine's cards have been released just in time for Valentine's Day. Available ahead of the show's SteelBook release on Blu-Ray, fans can now gift an Avatar related card to their Valentine alongside the pre-requisite chocolates and flowers!


Nickelodeon's selection (available to download as a pdf here) features fan-favorites Aang, Sokka, Prince Zuko and Toph. Each card is heavily themed for the occasion, with love hearts dotted around each one, including the inside where you can write a sweet note for your intended. They're also accompanied by messages that play off the character and their traits, with each one positioned in front of a location or symbol related to them.


The first card showcases Aang in mid-air, leg outstretched in a kick and hearts over his eyes, accompanied by the words "Because you've mastered all the elements of my heart." Sokka kneels in an intense crouch, his trusty boomerang in hand next to a sentiment reading, "For you can never be quenched, Valentine!" The Fire Nation's Prince Zuko stands proudly in front of a Fire Nation emblem, his card reading "Because you're the one I've been searching for." Finally, Toph's card showcases the Earth bender pushing forward mid-bend next to the words "I would move mountains for you, Valentine!" Each card can be folded over, allowing fans to print them off at home in preparation of Valentine's Day.


The SteelBook edition of the show, from Paramount Home Entertainment and Nickelodeon Home Entertainment is a limited edition purchase, with only 20,000 units intended for release. It will be priced at $97.99 and offer numerous bonus features. Avatar launched a franchise after becoming a hit, leading to a live-action film and a fan-favorite follow-up series Legend of Korra, which ran for four seasons. The stories of both Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra have continued on in graphic novel series.

ViacomCBS Prepares for Two Rounds of Layoffs

ViacomCBS is preparing for the first of two rounds of layoffs, Variety has learnt. According to multiple sources with knowledge of the situation, the first round of cuts, which would affect around 100 people, could take place as early as Wednesday, February 26 — six days after the company issues its quarterly earning report. A second set of cuts is planned to begin on or around Tuesday, March 31.


The first round of layoffs would come fewer than three months after Viacom completed merger with CBS Corp., a deal that reunited the two divergent pieces of the Redstone family media empire. Multiple departments are expected to be impacted, though areas such as the Paramount film and television studios and CBS Interactive are not expected to see significant effects. Instead the cuts will primarily touch on areas of overlap in television, where the bulk of employees at CBS and legacy Viacom brands work. Areas such as marketing, distribution, and consumer products, where there are significant overlaps, are likely to be affected, as are legacy CBS cable television operations.

A ViacomCBS spokesperson declined to comment.

Restructuring among the rank and file has long been anticipated. In August of last year Viacom and CBS signalled that the merger would yield $500 million in cost savings. The performance of ViacomCBS stock has been less than stellar in recent months, down 13.4% since the merger closed Dec. 4.

Even before the merger, Viacom already had the largest cable-channel group of any major U.S. media company — one including historic brands such as Nickelodeon, MTV and Comedy Central as well as more niche networks like BET Gospel, CMT and MTV Tres. The acquisition of CBS brought additional channels into the fold, including Pop and Smithsonian Channel, as well as the Showtime premium service.

Viacom and CBS began moving prior to the merger’s completion to set the leadership of the newly combined company, which has continued to evolve since the December close. Last month, ViacomCBS CEO Bob Bakish announced that George Cheeks, a veteran of Viacom and NBCUniversal, would join the company as president and CEO of CBS Entertainment Group — reporting to Bakish and replacing outgoing CBS CEO Joe Ianniello, who had been with the Eye for 22 years.

Some ViacomCBS employees have already been told that their jobs are set to be eliminated. As Varietyreported last week, the company plans to eliminate several roles in its corporate diversity and inclusion department.

HOLLYWOOD, Calif.—Feb. 13, 2020—Grammy® Award-winning superstar Chance the Rapper is set to host Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards 2020, the biggest and slimiest awards show where kids are in control, broadcasting live Sunday, March 22, at 7:30 p.m. (ET/PT) from the Forum in Inglewood, Calif. The news, which also included this year’s nominees, was announced today by Annie LeBlanc and her sister Hayley LeBlanc, stars of Nickelodeon’s digital competition show Annie vs. Hayley, during a Kids’ Choice Awards nomination event across Nick’s YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and Twitter handles and channels.

With surprises at every turn, Chance the Rapper will bring his charisma and upbeat energy to the Kids’ Choice Awards, an epic celebration of kids’ favorite stars across the worlds of film, television, music, sports and more. Viewers everywhere will be able to experience the show on all Nickelodeon screens and platforms, as Nick offers a front-row seat to slime, stunts and celebrities. Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards 2020 will be simulcast live across Nickelodeon, TeenNick, Nicktoons and the Nick Jr. channel.

Said Chance the Rapper, “I’m honored to host this year’s Kids’ Choice Awards. I watched Nickelodeon growing up and now I get to slime some of my favorite people on stage. This is going to be a party that you won’t want to miss!”

Leading into the award show, Nickelodeon SlimeFest, a two-day family-friendly music festival, will make its west coast debut on Saturday, March 21, and Sunday, March 22, at the Forum in Inglewood, Calif. The event features performances by Nickelodeon star and YouTube sensation JoJo Siwa, breakout pop group Why Don’t We, Grammy® Award-nominated multiplatinum artist French Montana, viral chart-topper Blanco Brown and singer/ventriloquist Darci Lynne. This year’s Nickelodeon SlimeFest will feature a Sunday-only VIP ticket that includes access to a special performance viewing area, plus admission to Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards 2020. All Sunday attendees will also have the opportunity to watch a livestream of Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards 2020 on the festival screens.

Leading the pack with the most Kids’ Choice Awards nominations are: Avengers: Endgame, with 11 nominations; Taylor Swift, with five nominations; and Frozen 2, Henry Danger and Lil Nas X, with four nominations each. First-time nominees include: John Cena, DaBaby, Tiffany Haddish, Tom Holland, Brie Larson, Lizzo and Megan Thee Stallion. With another nomination this year, Will Smith becomes the most nominated celebrity in Kids’ Choice Awards history, with a total of 29.

Beginning today, fans can cast votes on the official Kids’ Choice Awards website, www.KidsChoiceAwards.com, and on the Screens Up app on supported iPad, iPhone and Android devices in the U.S. International fans can cast votes through the Nick Play app in regions where it is available. Fans will also be able to cast their votes through social media on Twitter.

Chance the Rapper is no stranger to Nickelodeon, having made a surprise appearance at last year’s Nickelodeon SlimeFest in his hometown of Chicago and taking home a coveted Kids’ Choice Awards orange blimp for “Favorite Collaboration” (“No Brainer” by DJ Khaled, featuring Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper, Quavo) in 2019. He was also nominated for “Favorite Song” (“I’m the One” by DJ Khaled, featuring Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper, Quavo and Lil Wayne) in 2018.

Episode 25 | My Dad The Rock Star | KEEP IT WEIRD


EPISODE 25 - CHIP OFF THE OLD ROCK

When Grandpa and Grandma Zilla show up for a surprise visit, Rock is less than thrilled about spending the next couple of days with his father. The complete opposite of Rock, Grandpa Zilla is all formality and class, he feels Rock should be the same. With the help of Willy, Rock sets out to make his father proud with hilariously disastrous results.

Serenity, meanwhile, risking what she thinks will be “social suicide”, agrees to take Grandma Zilla out to the mall for a new shawl. Much to her surprise, Gran proceeds to take Serenity on a wild adventure that includes pink hair, tattoos, motorcycle races, and a bonfire with bikers. Realizing her assumption of what little old ladies are like may not hold true for all of them, Serenity finally must enlist the help of Crystal to subdue her wild granny, and bring them both home.

After a terrible evening out on the town embarrassing himself and his father, Rock abandons all hope of ever making his Dad proud. But when Grampa Zilla stumbles into a musical moment in Rock’s life, he realizes there is a tie uniting these opposing personalities. Grandpa Zilla understands that Rock is his own person and that he has a lot to offer, just the way he is.

From Londonist:

Immersive PAW Patrol? A Nickelodeon Adventure Park Has Opened At Lakeside


A new indoor play park has opened at Lakeside in Essex, bringing many Nickelodeon favourites to life.

If you've got kids, then chances are they're into at least one of the Nickelodeon shows, which are shown on FIVE, as well as streaming services. Nickelodeon owns PAW Patrol, Dora the Explorer, Shimmer and Shine, SpongeBob SquarePants and many other undisputed masterpieces of the televisual arts.

These much-loved characters are now holding court at Lakeside shopping centre, just outside the M25 in Thurrock.


Chase is on the case... and much bigger in real life than on our screens.

Nickelodeon Adventure is divided into four zones, which sound either enormously good fun or a bit weird, depending on your attitude to such things:

"Each zone offers engaging activities, from “fulfilling your destiny” alongside the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the sewers of NYC, to gaining a captain’s license at Mrs. Puff’s Boating School in Bikini Bottom, or completing a secret mission with PAW Patrol’s Skye and pals."

They've also got a '4D cinema', party space for hire, and the unappetising-sounding 'Slime Cafe'.

Kid-fun never comes cheap, and tickets will set you back £14.95 for children and £7.50 for adults with separate annual passes also available. If you're under 90cm, you go free.

Nickelodeon Adventure, Intu Lakeside.

Nickelodeon and Imagine Kids+Family's New Space Drama Series Reportedly Titled 'Above The Moon'; Starts Filming in Canada

Nickelodeon's upcoming brand new live-action space-themed drama series will be reportedly be titled Above The Moon! The news comes as the cast and crew commence filming for the show in Canada, including at the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) campus in Richmond. The series marks the first project co-produced by Nickelodeon and Imagine Kids+Family.


Interestingly, it seems that Nickelodeon has set up a production company called Above The Moon Productions Inc., which may be connected to the show.

Originally announced in June 2019 under the working title of Untitled Space Show, Above The Moon will be showrun and written by Daniel Knauf (Carnivàle, The Blacklist) and centers around a group of kids who mistakenly launch into space.

Above The Moon is being executive produced by Imagine Entertainment Chairmen Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, Imagine Kids+Family President Stephanie Sperber, and Knauf. The production is being overseen by Shauna Phelan, Senior Vice President, Scripted Content for Nickelodeon and by creative executive Will Davis for Imagine Kids+Family.

In Above The Moon, an almost-finished spaceship is about to launch into space with the world’s leading scientists to investigate a mysterious asteroid passing by earth. After a dare gone wrong, a group of kids accidentally launch the ship, putting them in the path of an asteroid. Without any proper training, they embark on a journey of survival using their smarts and friendship as their tools, as their parents watch from back on earth and attempt to guide them to safety.

“Working with Brian, Ron and all the creative voices at Imagine to create this project for Nickelodeon is a dream come true,” said Brian Robbins, President, Nickelodeon. “They have an insatiable love for storytelling and content creation that resonates globally, and we’re excited to explore this new adventure together for kids and families.”

“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Nickelodeon to expand upon Imagine’s legacy telling great stories set in space. Dan’s vision blends real science with compelling storytelling in a way that will engage young audiences around the world,” said Sperber.

Imagine has a rich history telling stories rooted in space adventure including the multiple Academy Award-winning film Apollo 13, the hybrid docuseries Mars for NatGeo, and the Emmy Award-winning series From The Earth To The Moon for HBO. Imagine Kids+Family was started in January of this year by Imagine Entertainment, and is run by Sperber. The division recently announced a partnership James Patterson’s kids division JIMMY Books, and with LIFE to develop LIFE for Kids, an animated series to bring history to life using images from the preeminent picture magazine.
