Varietyrounded up content creators, writers, directors, executives and talent that have made a big splash over the past year in the G-rated space. Among those Variety chatted to were Ramsey Naito, President of Animation, Nickelodeon; Niki Lopez, creator and executive producer, Santiago of the Seas; Stephanie Sperber, President, kids and family, Imagine Entertainment; and Olivier Dumont, President of family brands, Entertainment One (eOne). Check out what they revealed below!

Nickelodeon has long been one of the biggest brand-names in family TV, and with Naito now heading the animation division, the cabler has a raft of new series headed to its various platforms, from a “SpongeBob” spinoff to a Rugrats reboot, a Star Trek toon and new original properties including Middlemost Post. “We can’t reboot our legacies and other world-class IP without greenlighting our own creator-driven, artist-driven shows” Naito tells Variety, “and I think that one of the big differences between Nick now versus 20 years ago, is 20 years ago we were only making shows for linear television. … So [now] one doesn’t have to take away from the other, we can have it all.”
In the animated series Santiago of the Seas, plucky protagonist, Santiago Montes, an 8-year-old pirate, embarks on adventurous in the Caribbean. Lopez, who was born and raised in Puerto Rico, drew on her Latinx background to create this series. “Santiago of the Seas is my love letter to Puerto Rico and an ode to the magical power of empathy within an inclusive community,” says Lopez. “It’s been amazing to see and hear how Santiago of the Seas has resonated with not just kids in the Latinx community, but with so many age groups of all different cultural backgrounds. We all want to see heroes who look like us. We want to continue showcasing how even within the Latinx community, there’s so much beauty and diversity to celebrate.”

The first show out of the gate of Imagine’s kids and family division was the live-action kids-in-space series The Astronauts, which launched Nov. 13 on Nickelodeon. Sperber is also proud of the upcoming The Tiny Chef Show, as a big part of her mission is to “develop great content that can also be built into franchise IP,” she says. “We develop our content with a focus on thematics with a high level of specificity — always asking what the essence of the story is we’re telling and why it’s important to tell it now.”

With established series such as Peppa Pig, PJ Masks and new cartoon Ricky Zoom extremely popular among the pre-school set — to date, the show has generated $1.35 billion in retail sales of products based on its characters — eOne continues to bring high-quality family-friendly content to viewers worldwide. “Co-viewing and parent endorsement continue to be a big part of the success of the shows because very few pre-school shows are as funny for parents as they are for their pre-schoolers,” Dumont says. “The quality of the writing, with stories that are immensely relevant to pre-schoolers’ daily lives, wrapped in a beautiful colour palette and simple but very effective animation also make our shows stand out far and wide.”
In addition to Naito, Lopez, Sperber and Dumont, Variety also talked to actor Ken Jeong (The Casagrandes, Wonder Park) and former Nickelodeon executive Margie Cohn, the current President and general manager of DreamWorks Animation, as well as Diana from Kids Diana Show, Greta Thunberg
(I Am Greta) and more. Check out what they had to say on Variety.com!
"Come Up for Air" is about pushing through the moment, finding some new appreciation, and ultimately, new ways of valuing ourselves.
Joshua Dela Cruz (Aladdin and host of Nickelodeon's Blue's Clues & You!) and his wife, Amanda Dela Cruz (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) have recorded a cover of the song "Come Up for Air" (along with a video) from the new musical Ranked with book by Kyle Holmes and music and lyrics by David Taylor Gomes. Ranked is set in a dystopian world where your class rank, determined by grades and test scores, governs everything from where you sit to what your future holds.
Watch below!
Originally set for a New York workshop in March, those plans were put on hold because of the on-going COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.
"Come Up for Air" is about pushing through the moment, finding some new appreciation, and ultimately, new ways of valuing ourselves. Despite the school year being turned upside down by a pandemic, many students are feeling even more pressure to be academically successful; this song is a metaphor for what we are all going through right now.
A portion (50%) of the proceeds from the streaming of the song and video on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube will benefit Covenant House, which provides shelter, food, immediate crisis care, and an array of other services to homeless and runaway youth. To stream the track, visit https://fanlink.to/comeupforair.
Lily is above the average, barely. Soon the giant, and very public, academic leaderboards will update everyone's class rank, and for another day, everyone will know their place. If you fall Below the Average - say goodbye to college, and pretty much everything else. Below the Average students are nothing more than social outcasts, not worth anyone's time. In the face of an intense and perverse culture of performance, Lily must find her place in the status quo as she watches friends and enemies alike destroy themselves and each other to score their way to the top.
When an impossible lie is discovered, the fate of these students' futures hangs in the balance. Ranked asks - what are you worth? Who decides? And what do you do when it all comes crashing down.
"Through music, people find fellowship," said Joshua and Amanda Dela Cruz in a joint statement. "We can't possibly imagine being a kid in this world right now, but Ranked gives them a powerful voice. We are thrilled to partner with Ranked and Covenant House, an organization that has been teaching the world what it means to be human since 1972. We can't think of a better organization to support during these times of crisis."
"This pandemic didn't erase the educational crisis Ranked explores, it made it worse. Now more than ever, we need to listen to what our students have to say, and see them as more than their test scores and class ranks," said Kyle Holmes and David Taylor Gomes. "We are thrilled and humbled that Joshua and Amanda have recorded "Come Up for Air" and we hope that it provides comfort and a sense of relief to anyone currently struggling.
Both Holmes and Gomes work in the Sacramento school system. Their musical premiered in California weeks after the college admissions scandal that saw several high-profile celebrities indicted after lying or paying bribes to universities to gain entrance for their children. Ranked moves the story to a dystopian world where publicized academic excellence defines each student's worth, resulting in extreme competition.
Break Thru Films is also filming a documentary about the making of the musical Ranked in association with HBO that will be completed in 2021 for a festival premiere followed by a broadcast date in 2022.
