“With Blue’s Clues<\/em>, Nickelodeon launched what became TV’s first generation of interactivity for preschoolers and set the bar for quality, curriculum-driven shows we have made since,” said Cyma Zarghami, the president of Nickelodeon Group. “The new, modern version of Blue’s Clues<\/em> will capture all the original’s creativity and visual identity for a whole new audience ready for its fun adventures and expertly designed problem-solving curriculum.”<\/p>\n

During the season, the network will debut such returning hits as PAW Patrol<\/em>, Blaze and the Monster Machines<\/em>, Shimmer and Shine<\/em>, Nella the Princess Knight<\/em>, SpongeBob SquarePants<\/em>, The Loud House<\/em>, Henry Danger<\/em>, The Thundermans<\/em> and Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn<\/em>. It has also greenlit the animated preschool shows Abby Hatcher, Fuzzly Catcher<\/em>, Butterbean’s Caf\u00e9<\/em>, Fashion Ally <\/em>(working title) and The Swashbuckling Adventures of Capit\u00e1n Calavera <\/em>(working title).<\/p>\n

Additional programming highlights include the Rocky’s Modern Life: Static Cling<\/em> and Invader Zim<\/em> specials, as well as the 2018 Kids’ Choice Awards, Kids’ Choice Sports and HALO Awards, among others.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Nickelodeon revealed a new partnership with IMAX to bring SlimeZone, its first multi-player, social virtual-reality experience, to select IMAX VR centers around the world this month. The channel is also introducing a new AR mode for its Sky Whale<\/em> mobile gaming app. In addition, it has created and launched a new brand campaign, That’s Me, which showcases kids’ drive to be honest and authentic individuals celebrating differences and diversity.<\/p>\n

“With our share growing and content pipeline in overdrive, we are reinventing ourselves to best serve the new and next generation of audiences on new and next-generation platforms,” added Zarghami. “Kids are both our anchor and North Star, and that bond with the audience allows us to connect to them everywhere.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
