Nickelodeon, in an all-new season of the comedy-sport series,
The Dude Perfect Show (20 half-hour episodes).

The series will air on Nickelodeon later this summer.

“For Season 2, it’s similar to what we did season one but we’re kind of taking it to the next level with bigger stunts, in the physical sense of the word. It’s kind of an inside look into the new office space we have and what daily life is like there,” Tyler Toney told
TheWrap on the phone as he drove from the group’s 25,000 square-foot, action-packed paradise in Dallas to Houston for their Super Bowl special.
“He’s somebody that we always looked up to as far as a content creator, so we were fortunate enough to spend some time with him and go out to the Fantasy Factory a few times and film a few different things,” Toney said. “The great thing about Rob is that he’s extremely genuine … to be able to have fun in whatever you’re doing is one of the reasons that he’s been successful.”
The Dude Perfect boys will partake in “Superstar Slime Showdown at Super Bowl” special on Feb. 5. The hour-long competition pits teams of NFL athletes and Nickelodeon stars against one another in a series of messy football-themed challenges.
“We’ve created this little challenge that has to deal with making different types of catches using trampolines and pads in different weather scenarios,” Toney said. “It’s kind of taking a little bit of what we do in our videos and putting a little bit of a Dude Perfect twist on it. It should be a lot of fun.”
