TV Tonight: SpongeBob SquarePants Documentary
I can't believe it's been 10 whole years since SpongeBob SquarePants came bounding enthusiastically into our living rooms, but it's true! To mark the occasion, tonight VH1 will air Square Roots: The Story of SpongeBob SquarePants, an original SpongeBob SquarePants TV documentary. Then, from July 17-19, Nickelodeon will air a 50-hour "event," hosted by Patchy the Pirate, which "will include an unprecedented 11 SpongeBob premieres and a top-10 countdown of celebrities' favorite SpongeBob episodes."
2009 Kids' Choice Awards: The Kids Have Chosen
The kids have slimed a whole new generation at this year's Kids' Choice Awards — in place of Miley Cyrus for fave TV actress there's Selena Gomez. Where Jessica Alba reigned as favorite movie actress, the kids have now crowned Vanessa Hudgens. And the Harry Potter series has been replaced by the Twilight series in the "favorite book" department.
Strangers with Candy Crew Reunites . . . For Kids
I wouldn't exactly name Strangers with Candy, the 1999 Comedy Central series, as an example of child-friendly fare. And if I were looking to make an actual after-school special — not a Strangers-style spoof — I don't think creator Paul Dinello and star Amy Sedaris would be the first people I'd call.
But Nickelodeon is apparently way, way cooler than I am: The network has hired Dinello to direct Gym Teacher: The Movie, which will air on Nick in September.
Now Available on iTunes: Your Childhood
If you were one of the people who turned my Hey Dude recast into a lovefest for '90s Nickelodeon, here's a bit of good news: As of today, you can download episodes of the show on iTunes!
The show, along with Clarissa Explains It All, Rugrats, and Doug (the good one, not the weird ABC one where they changed Doug's voice), is now available as part of Nick Rewind on iTunes, which exists specifically to feed our craving for nostalgia. No, really: “We hear from literally thousands of teens and young parents who say they want to see the shows that defined their childhood," one Nickelodeon executive said in announcing the service.
Recast Hey Dude and Win a Prize!
Every other Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge, where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar t-shirt!
For this week's recast I wanted to tap into that Nickelodeon era of programming aimed at teens in the late '80s and early '90s which included shows like Salute Your Shorts, Clarissa Explains It All and my personal favorite: Hey Dude!
Who Should Play the New Inhabitants of 90210?
Since we now have an outline of the main characters for the rumored 90210 spinoff, my brain can't stop thinking about who might be cast in these roles. While these new characters have updated traits and hobbies (emo! YouTube!) they are, as some have pointed out, more or less the new versions of the original cast.
JT Helps Slimey Awards Clean Up in the Ratings
Can you believe Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards have been around for 20 years? What's more, this year's ceremony, held Saturday night in Los Angeles, earned the highest ratings in KCA history, Reuters reports.
According to the Nielsen numbers, the program averaged more than 6.1 million viewers, a 3 percent increase over last year.
2007 Kids Choice Awards: Who the Kids Chose
I remember when the Kids Choice Awards debuted in 1987, but Nickelodeon's big event is still going strong with the green slime. This year's awards were held Saturday night in Los Angeles and hosted by Justin Timberlake, proving that the KCAs are without a doubt a major Hollywood happening.
The show is also becoming a valuable place for actors to promote summer kids' movies.
