YTV's New March Break-Out Schedule Gives Kids an Entire Month of New Episodes, Movie Premieres and Specials
* YTV airs Nickelodeon's 27th Annual Kids' Choice Awards live on Saturday, March 29

Corus Entertainment's YTV is celebrating March Break for the entire month with an exciting programming slate that includes three new series, returning series, new episodes, movie premieres and specials.
Two new hilarious animated series Breadwinners and Nerds and Monsters are joining YTV's stable of cartoon comedy hits. Breadwinners, a Nickelodeon original series with a groovin' soundtrack, follows two booty-shaking ducks as they operate a quirky bread delivery service out of their awesome, jet-fueled Rocket Van. Nerds and Monsters, from Slap Happy Cartoons, is about a group of nerdy kid characters with quick wits on a fantastic uncharted island, à la Gilligan's Island. It's laugh-a-minute as the nerds must use nothing but their smarts to survive the relentless attacks by the island's inhabitants – a tribe of hideous, inept monsters.
YTV's brand new series, The Next Star: SuperGroup is a spin-off singing competition series in search of the next popular boy or girl group. Produced by Tricon Films & Television in association with YTV, the search for Canada's next SuperGroup sensation follows the journey of 30 finalists who travel to Toronto and compete in groups of five while they are mentored by an expert panel. In the end, only two groups will go head-to-head in the live finale, where viewers will vote to determine who wins the grand prize and title of The Next Star: SuperGroup.
For the first time ever, Nickelodeon's 27th Annual Kids' Choice Awards will air live on YTV on Saturday, March 29 at 8 p.m. ET/PT and will be simulcast on Nickelodeon (Canada).

Highlights of the 2014 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles line from Playmates Toys include the following:
Action Figures
The Basic Action Figure assortment continues to grow with the addition of more than 25 new figures in 2014, including some of the most beloved characters from the original 1990's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series such as Casey Jones, Mutagen Man and Slash. The highly detailed action figures are fully articulated and uniquely sculpted, with heights ranging from 4" to 5.5". Each figure is equipped with unique accessories and is compatible with most of the vehicles and playsets in the line. Figures launching in the spring include Casey Jones, Kirby Bat, Rahzar, Mutagen Man and Slash.

The collection includes Ninja Cartwheelin' Leonardo, Ninja Front Flipping Raphael and Ninja Strikin' Michelangelo.
Kids' favorite heroes in a half shell come to life with the new 11" Interactive Talking Turtles. These Turtles have a lot to say and can even talk to one another. Each Turtle knows when one of their brothers is talking and can even provide their own unique responses. When all four of the Turtles are together, kids can listen as their personalities come to life! The collection includes Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo.
With the Stretch N Shout Action Figures, kids can hear the "battle shouts" of their favorite Turtles, allowing the individual personalities of the Turtles to shine through. Each figure stands over 8" tall, comes with their core accessories and features stretchable arms. Kids can stretch the Turtles' arms, listening to the pitch get higher as the arms are stretched further. The collection includes Leonardo and Raphael.
Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo are always ready for a battle against Shredder and the evil Foot Clan, and now the Turtles can be thrown into the battle with the Throw N' Battle Deluxe Figures. Decked out in their night ninja outfits, the Throw N' Battle Turtles start out in stealth mode with their legs and arms folded behind their head. Give them a toss into the battle and they spring to their feet, unleash their weapons and are ready to take out Shredder and the Foot!
Z-Line Ninja Playsets
The all-new collection of Z-line Ninja playsets allows kids to zip their Turtles action figures around the room and from wall to wall. The playsets attach safely to walls and the zip-lines are easily connected, allowing kids to trigger a chain reaction, launching even more Turtle figures! The line includes two basic playsets, Freefall Fire Escape and Window Wipeout, as well as two deluxe playsets, Water Tower Washout and Billboard Breakout. For the ultimate zip-lining fans, the Construction Crane Cascade is an action-packed playset featuring a high flying pully system that allows kids to zip their Turtles from greater heights to gain attack speed. Each playset includes a gargoyle launcher, zip-lines, angle gauge and more. For extended Ninja play, all Z-line Ninja sets connect to create a world of zip-line action! Action figures are sold separately.
Half Shell Heroes Preschool Segment
For the first time, kids as young as three can join in non-stop Ninja fun. The all-new Half Shell Heroes segment includes action figures, vehicles and playsets, sized just right for preschool hands. It allows little ones to enjoy open-ended imaginative play adventures with the whole family of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles heroes and mutants.
The line includes an assortment of 2.5" action figures, including Leo with Luge, Mikey with Skateboard and Raph with Mini Cycle.
