Nickelodeon Australia And New Zealand To Premiere Series Finale Of "Big Time Rush", "Big Time Dreams", On Sunday 2nd February 2014

All great things must come to a end, and unfortunately, Nickelodeon's hit original musical comedy series "Big Time Rush" is no exception.

SKY TV, New Zealand's main pay-television operator, is reporting the bittersweet Big Time News in the 'Kids and Family' area of their 'Television Highlights' webpage that Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand will be showing the brand new one-hour (two-part) series finale episode/movie of "Big Time Rush", called "Big Time Dreams" on Sunday 2nd February 2014 at 5:00pm.

Leading up to the debut of the last ever episode of "Big Time Rush", Nick AU & NZ are inviting Aussie and Kiwi Rushers to join them from 2:00pm on Sunday 2nd February 2014 for a massive sing‐along afternoon, featuring a very special Big Time Marathon packed full with back-to-back episodes of "Big Time Rush", before the final chapter in BTR's story is told with the double episode, "Big Time Dreams", at 5pm.

In the all-new episode of "Big Time Rush", called "Big Time Dreams", the BTR guys are invited to the 24th annual Tween Choice Awards, where the boy banders are nominated for a award and are booked to close the show.

However, before the foursome can take the stage, they uncover an evil plot to brainwash everyone in the audience. So Big Time Rush have to take down the bad guys and make sure the show rolls on as scheduled. The episode will guest star Austin Mahone as himself, Mindless Behavior as themselves, Nick Cannon ("All That", "The Nick Cannon Show", "Rags", the host of the "TeenNick Halo Awards" and the Chairman of 'TeenNick') as himself, Karmin as themselves, and Alexa Vega as herself. Episode notes: The Tween Choice Awards is a parody of the Teen Choice Awards. The goop that fell on Camille and Jo when they went up to present an award was a parody of the green slime used at the Kids Choice Awards. This is an hour-long TV special which could possibly connected with "Big Time Movie", based on similarities in plots (both contain spy elements and dream plot points).
