Nickelodeon Kicks Off Year-Round 'That's Me' Campaign With Girl-Empowerment Theme

The series of PSAs will pay homage to inspiring historical and contemporary women including Amelia Earhart, Michelle Obama, Frida Kahlo, Carol Burnett and Beyoncé.


Nickelodeon is celebrating "a new generation of empowered girls" with a monthlong series of spots that kickoff its multiplatform campaign titled "That's Me."

“That's Me" is a year-round brand campaign that explores and honors all of the attributes and differences that make all kids unique. The kickoff of the campaign focuses on girl empowerment to coincide with Women’s History Month, while different cultures, heritages and backgrounds will be highlighted throughout the rest of the year.

The campaign launches Thursday, March 1, 2018 with a series of public service announcements (PSAs) that will pay homage to inspiring historical and contemporary women from the worlds of entertainment, sports, politics, science and the arts. The campaign aims to "explore and honor all of the attributes that make kids who they are — their personalities, backgrounds, experiences and heritage."

“Girl empowerment has been a part of our DNA since the beginning. We put girls in lead roles in shows like Clarissa Explains It All and Dora the Explorer. And have proven time and time again, girls in lead roles, if done well, will attract both boys and girls,” said Cyma Zarghami, president of Viacom Inc.'s Nickelodeon Group.

The multiplatform initiative was developed based on the brand’s ongoing research, which shows the most diverse generation of children exists today. The campaign echoes the acceptance and inclusion children are demanding in entertainment, as 93 percent of kids responded that they want friends of different races or ethnicities, according to Nickelodeon.

"The 'That's Me' campaign celebrates what we know about kids today," Zarghami said. "We know that they are authentic. We know that they love to celebrate diversity. We know that they have and want friends of different genders, races and ethnicities. They don’t identify themselves as just one thing anymore. They identify as many things. So this campaign celebrates all of those differences.”

The campaign will also honor female talent and events including Amelia Earhart, the 2017 Women’s March, Michelle Obama, Frida Kahlo, Carol Burnett, Dorothy Dandridge, Beyoncé, Ronda Rousey and Lena Waithe, and will feature Nickelodeon talent.

“It turns out, with everything that you’re reading about this industry and others and the #MeToo and Time's Up movements, this is an important time for young girls to see messages of empowerment,” Zarghami explained of the company’s decision to coincide the campaign’s launch with Women’s History Month.

While honoring attributes like children's personalities and heritage, Nickelodeon plans to spotlight girls’ attributes that allow them to overcome challenges and become history-making women.

The spots will also showcase the qualities these women and this current generation of girls share in common, while stressing the continued relevance of women’s groundbreaking achievements for future generations.

The brand campaign also will be featured across Nickelodeon's digital and social platforms, including online at nick.com/womens-month.

Nickelodeon's That's Me initiative follows Viacom launching a year-long series of PSAs supporting the Association of National Advertisers’ #SeeHer initiative, which aims to show a positive portrayal of women in media, in February 2018. The campaign, presented by sponsors including Johnson & Johnson Consumer and Unilever, runs on Viacom's flagship networks MTV, VH1, Comedy Central, Paramount Network and Nickelodeon plus CMT and TV Land. Spots from the sponsors will air adjacent to the PSAs. The first spot featured a young woman in science class imagining herself someday in the White House helping the president avert a tragedy. A second spot, aimed at younger viewers, aired on Nick, and feature female characters from the network including Phoebe Thunderman from The Thundermans and Nella from Nella the Princess Knight.

Make It Real To Debut 'Sunny Day' DIY Activity Kits During Fall 2018

Make It Real will celebrate the preschool series’ main character with a new line of DIY beauty craft kits.

US toymaker Make It Real is launching a new range of activity kits based on Nickelodeon’s hit animated preschool series Sunny Day!


Slated to hit US mass-market shelves during fall 2018, the line includes activity kits focused on hair, make-up, jewelry and accessories (including bracelets), and nail designs for girls ages five and up.

Sunny Day encourages girls to ‘write their own story and sing their own tune,’ which is exactly the message we want to convey with our creativity kits,” says Isaac Wolman, chief executive officer, Make It Real. “Our new Sunny Day collection delivers an exciting array of creative opportunities for girls to express their individual style with confidence.”

"Nickelodeon is an iconic company and we are grateful for the opportunity to partner with them to create something inspirational, aspirational and meaningful for our audience of young girls," Make It Real said in a statement last year following the partnership being announced.

Sunny Day follows a salon-owning entrepreneur who helps her friends solve everyday challenges. Developed and produced by Silvergate Media, the series bowed on Nickelodeon USA last August. As Nickelodeon readies for the show’s second season premiere later this year, this May, Nickelodeon will launch the Sunny Day Tour, an immersive on-ground activation that will travel to cities across the U.S., and Walmart will start to roll out Mattel’s Sunny Day toy line (including basic and deluxe dolls, accessories, plush, role play and play sets).

Jada Toys Inc. also recently announced that they'll be adding Dazzle Dash to their rosta of girls’ products. The new die-cast vehicle girl line will be available this August and include popular licenses, including Sunny Day. Jada Toys Inc. unveiled their Sunny Day Dazzle Dash vehicles at the 2018 North American International Toy Fair in New York City.

Viacom Planning To Launch Streaming Service During Fall 2018 [Updated]

Viacom is a substantial player in Hollywood. It’s behind Paramount Pictures and cable networks Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, MTV, BET, and VH1, among others. And it’s about to join other traditional programmers doing battle with streaming services and mobile and social players of all stripes by joining the streaming wars, aka the fight against Netflix, as the company’s executives have revealed a Viacom streaming service will debut in the fall!


Viacom executives mentioned their upcoming direct-to-consumer over-the-top (OTT) service during the company's First Quarter 2018 financial report, but was fairly short on details. The execs said that it is on track to launch by this fall in the U.S. and will include “tens of thousands of hours” of Viacom content, according to CFO Wade Davis.

In other words, it’ll be a product similar to Netflix, but with mainly Viacom content.

Viacom has never been entirely satisfied with other streaming services, and it may be making this move as it appears Disney will own a 60% stake in Hulu, in addition to ESPN Plus and its still-unnamed Netflix competitor. Most of Viacom's cable content is streaming on Hulu at the moment, but why leave your content on a service where your foe makes most of the money?

That said, Viacom is leaping into a suddenly crowded market. In addition to Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, a host of streaming services are already online, like CBS All Access - although Viacom and CBS are looking to reunite - or about to launch in the next year or two, with companies ranging from DC Comics to Apple spending billions to commission new series, dust off old ones, and get into the SVoD space. And if that weren’t enough, traditional programmers have to fight Netflix, which is always rapidly expanding its services.

However, Viacom is in a strong position; it’s got Nickelodeon, Nick Jr., Comedy Central, MTV and Paramount Network, and it’s done exceptionally well across the board from Spongebob SquarePants and PAW Patrol to Broad City and Lip Sync Battle.

In further articulating the strategy, Viacom President and CEO Bob Bakish made a thinly veiled reference to Starz, whose OTT service has inflamed tensions with distributors such as Altice, which continues a carriage impasse with Starz parent Lionsgate. Compared with such an offering, “We do not view this as a substitute product. We view this as a complement.”

Davis said one MVPD (multichannel video programming distributor) partner, which he did not name, is exploring an integration of the Viacom OTT into its the “This is a product that we think works in that ecosystem.”

Also, from TechCrunch (via Engadget):

Kel Mitchell Reveals That There Has Been Talks For A 'Good Burger' Sequel

If you grew up in the ‘90s, you'll truly understand the power of the orange soda, thanks to Kenan & Kel and Good Burger. In fact, if you listen closely, somewhere in the back of your head your can still hear Kel Mitchell saying, “Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger,” and “Who loves orange soda?”


Whether you first saw Kel and now-SNL-legend Kenan Thompson on Nickelodeon's All That, their self-titled spinoff, or Nickelodeon Movies' Good Burger, it’s hard not to love their goofy brand of sketch comedy. And now the great nostalgia wave of the 2010s has yet another surprise for you: plans for a Good Burger sequel have already been put into motion!

Kel Mitchell dropped the tentative sequel news himself during a BuzzFeed interview in which he answered fan questions.



“The conversations have started,” he said when asked about a sequel. “There's something in the water, everything's coming back. It will definitely be awesome and there was a meeting!”

“They're just working everything out contractually, so just keep your ears to the streets,” he added.

This was the only information that Kel was willing to spill, but considering the source, it’s probably okay to start getting just a little bit excited. Plus, the information lines up somewhat with last month’s announcement that the cast of All That, which also starred Lori Beth Denberg and Josh Server, reunited for an upcoming episode of MTV’s Wild ’N Out.

If you can’t wait until until the powers-that-be work out those contracts, you can relive the Good Burger days with this 2015 Jimmy Fallon sketch that reunited Kenan and Kel’s characters, Ed the Good Burger Guy ans Lester Oaks, construction worker.



After Fallon brought the two beloved actors together again, they both realized there was still something to their ‘90s show and they had to work together again. “From this, working together and talking about it and seeing reaction from the fans and how they were screaming, and seeing that the magic is still there, we’re just like, 'Yeah, we gotta do some more stuff,' so you’ll definitely see some more stuff,” Mitchell said back in 2015. “You'll definitely see something coming up.”

Kel also recently revealed that he'd like his fellow All That co-star Amanda Bynes to guest star on his latest Nickelodeon hit, Game Shakers!

Check out BuzzFeed's super interview with Kel Mitchell below!:

Kel Mitchell Revealed A “Good Burger” Sequel Might Be On Its Way And I’m Screaming

Only read this if you love orange soda.

Everyone's favorite orange soda-drinker — Kel Mitchell — stopped by BuzzFeed to spill some #TBTea on his former Nickelodeon days while answering your fan questions...

...and BOY, did he SPILL IT, including some dirt on a potential Good Burger sequel:

1. Which cast member on All That made you laugh the hardest?

Kel: Kenan, of course. We would always try to make each other laugh. One of the times we both just cracked up at a live show and Nickelodeon actually kept it. I think I took a burger and turned it into a shake? I turned back around and Kenan just broke, and then I broke, and we both just started cracking up laughing.

2. Who was your favorite All That character that you played?

Kel: Coach Kreeton was a lot of fun, just because there was a lot of physical comedy and I knew I got to tear up the place and scream. I love physical comedy and anytime I can get really physical, I love those moments.

3. What was your favorite memory on set with Amanda Bynes?

Kel: Her talent is amazing! Her physical comedy — like, she was never scared to get physical. They [Nickelodeon] were like, "She wants to do physical comedy like how you do." And I just gave her a lot of pointers — she took it and ran with it. She's a beast, she's fearless. I liked all of Amanda's scenes. She was another one that was really fun to watch.

4. Were your characters in Kenan & Kel based on your actual friendship with Keenan IRL?

Kel: The friendship, that's where it initially started. They [Nickelodeon] were like, "This needs to be a show!" Having fun and having your friend's back, yeah that's definitely like me. As far as the other crazy stuff that he [Kel] would do, not me so much! I love playing that character man, he's just awesome.

5. Which of Kel’s catchphrases do people ask you to repeat the most?

Kel: It's between "Welcome to Good Burger!" and "Who loves orange soda?" Anywhere I go, I'm treated like the Burger King. If I order anything at a restaurant and it's not an orange soda, "You're supposed to be drinking orange sodas!" Don't be scared to come up and ask me, if you see me in person, and talk about orange soda and burgers. I'm not gonna spill the orange soda in your face, it's all good!

6. Did you actually have to drink all that orange soda?

Kel: Oh, I drank a lot of orange soda on set! And it wasn't like, just little bottles or cans of orange soda, I mean these were liters that I'd just be chugging. I have a lot of fructose inside of me.

7. Are there any plans for a Good Burger sequel?

Kel: That's a good one! The conversations have started. There's something in the water, everything's coming back. It will definitely be awesome and there was a meeting! They're just working everything out contractually, so just keep your ears to the streets.

8. If you were to give your younger Nickelodeon-self any advice, what would it be?

Kel: I would say just have fun man, enjoy it! I was ready to battle. I just had the heart of a lion. I was like, every sketch, "I'm about to make it the funniest thing you've ever seen!" I would say just have a little bit more fun with it, but also still keep that intensity because it definitely worked.

Make sure to catch Kel starring on Game Shakers, airing Sundays on Nickelodeon USA!

Smiles and Styles Save the Day in 'Sunny Day', Nickelodeon's Brand-New Animated Preschool Series, Premiering Friday 2nd March 2018 on Nick Jr. UK

SMILES AND STYLES SAVE THE DAY IN SUNNY DAY,

NICKELODEON’S BRAND-NEW ANIMATED PRESCHOOOL SERIES,

PREMIERING FRIDAY 2ND MARCH 2018 ON NICK JR. UK & IRELAND



UK– Preschoolers will be smiling and styling with Sunny and her friends in Nickelodeon's brand-new animated series, Sunny Day, premiering Friday 2nd March 2018 at 6.00pm on Nick Jr. UK & Ireland! The series (40 episodes) centres on Sunny, a 10-year-old master hairstylist and entrepreneur who uses creative problem-solving to tackle any dilemma that arises in her seaside town of Friendly Falls. The characters in the series celebrate individuality and self-expression, while the show’s social-emotional curriculum highlights leadership, innovative thinking and teamwork. Following the series launch, new episodes of Sunny Day will air regularly every Friday at 6:00pm on Nick Jr. UK & Ireland.

Sunny is a confident and creative natural leader who runs her own hair salon in the town of Friendly Falls. When adventure calls, Sunny sets out to save the day with her can-do attitude, salon-on-the-go Glam Van, best friends and colleagues, Rox and Blair, and her dog Doodle. Each episode of Sunny Day features a unique digital extension where kids and their parents can watch fun, live-action hairstyle tutorials that are tied directly to the hairstyles featured in each episode and narrated by Sunny.

Update (1/3): To celebrate Nick Jr. UK & Ireland starting to premiere Sunny Day on Friday 2nd March 2018 at 6.00pm, Nick Jr. has made the very first episode of Sunny Day available to watch in full for free on nickjr.co.uk and the brand-spanking new Nick Jr. Play app, available to download on iOS and Android, ahead of its TV debut!


In Sunny Day’s season premiere, “Stick With Me,” Rox and Blair accidentally get stuck together with sticky hairspray, and it’s up to Sunny to help them work together to get unstuck and save the day.

Then, in "The Topi-Hairy Contest", premiering Friday 9th March 2018 at 6pm, Sunny enters the annual topiary tree sculpting contest, but when her entry is sabotaged - twice - by Lacey, she uses her skills to create a brand new kind of art!

Each episode of Sunny Day will also feature a unique digital extension where kids and their parents can watch fun, live-action hairstyle tutorials that are tied directly to each storyline and narrated by Sunny.

The UK version of Sunny Day will feature a localised dub.

Sunny Day Developed and produced by Silvergate Media (Peter Rabbit).

Nickelodeon recently greenlit Sunny Day for a 20 episode second season, and will launch a wide range of Sunny Day merchandise and the Sunny Day Tour in the US beginning Spring 2018.

Sunny Day made its world debut on Nickelodeon USA in August 2017, and is currently rolling out on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. channels worldwide.

Online at nickjr.co.uk, parents and children can find out more about Sunny Day, sing-along to the Sunny Day theme song, and discover creative activities. Fans can like the official Nick Jr. UK & Ireland Facebook and Instagram pages and sign up to the official Nick Jr. Fan Club for the latest Nick Jr. news, highlights, video clips, competitions and more.
