Following the shows debut, Nickelodeon Portugal will continue to premiere brand-new episodes of "Breadwinners" every Monday to Friday at 7:15pm from Monday 6th October 2014, and encore two new episodes every Saturday and Sunday morning from 10:00am from 11th October 2014.

To celebrate Nickelodeon Portugal debuting Nick's all new animated sitcom "Breadwinners", Nick Portugal has unveiled their official show website for the brand new show, which features show information and a 'Personagens' section featuring character bios for SwaySway and Buhdeuce, which you can visit here at nickelodeon.pt/series/breadwinners/o9yezl!:

Os Breadwinners chegam ao Nickelodeon!

Está na hora dos companheiros! A carrinha dos "Breadwinners" chega ao Nickelodeon no dia 6 de outubro às 19:15 com Sway Sway e Buhdeuce, dois inseparáveis amigos patos distribuidores de pão, cuja principal missão é fazer chegar os pedidos a todos os esfomeados da sua cidade Pãogea... Custe o que custar! Estes dois estarolas vão invadir o canal de segunda a sexta cheios energia, alegria e uma devoção comum por pão, que é aquilo de que os verdadeiros "Breadwinners" necessitam. Sway Sway e Buhdeuce viverão um sem fim de aventuras na sua Carrinha Foguete, levando a cabo a tarefa de que mais gostam: distribuir pão!

Os patos Sway Sway e Buhdeuce, os distribuidores de pão de Pãogea, têm o objetivo de executar a tarefa para a qual nasceram: fazer chegar os pedidos de pão a todos os patos da sua cidade. Como diz o lema destes distribuidores, "Faça chuva ou faça sol, não falhamos nenhuma entrega!".

Nos episódios de outubro, Sway Sway (um pato com o ritmo no sangue, que consegue conduzir a Carrinha Foguete sem ficar despenteado) e Buhdeuce (um pato baixinho e redondo, capaz de mexer o traseiro como ninguém) não estarão sós. Juntamente com a sua mascote Jelly (uma rã domesticada) e a cisne mecânica Ketta (encarregada de arranjar a Carrinha Foguete de cada vez que esta sofre uma avaria), os dois amigos vão ver-se envolvidos em todo o tipo de situações disparatadas.

Além disso, o Mestre Padeiro, que vive no centro do planeta e é o encarregado de fazer todo o pão que existe (a matéria-prima de que ele próprio é feito), vai estar sempre ao lado dos seus distribuidores preferidos para lhes oferecer todo o tipo de ajuda ou conselhos.

Enfrentar um grupo de patos furiosos no bairro mais perigoso de Pãogea, o bairro Levedura, fazer frente ao mau hálito de Buhdeuce causado por um pão em decomposição, escapar ao monstro da mina de pão, conhecer o seu ídolo (o Mestre Padeiro), ou devolver um bebé monstro à sua mãe, são algumas das aventuras que estes intrépidos distribuidores vão viver.

Aos fins de semana, os mais pequenos vão poder seguir as andanças destes carismáticos patos: aos sábados e domingos, a partir das 10:00, o Nickelodeon transmite duplos episódios das aventuras de "Breadwinners" que decorreram ao longo da semana. E como a espera até dia 6 de outubro pode ser longa, no sábado, dia 4 de outubro, às 14:30, o Nickelodeon transmite a antestreia do primeiro episódio de "Breadwinners" depois da maratona de "SpongeBob", que terá lugar a partir das 12:25 nesse mesmo dia.
