Original Nickelodeon Deutschland Press Release:

Superhelden-Sidekick und Best-Buddy Komödie – Nickelodeon startet im Frühjahr zwei neue Live-Action-Serien: 'Henry Danger' und 'Max & Shred'

Premiere am 1. Februar bei Nickelodeon // Teenie Henry wird in 'Henry Danger' zum Sidekick eines Berufs-Superhelden // In 'Max & Shred' beginnen die unterschiedlichen Jungs Max und Alvi

Berlin, 12. Januar 2015 – Neues Jahr, neue Hitserien. Der Kindersender Nickelodeon hält an seiner Strategie fest, die Pipeline neuer, spannender Live-Action-Serien nicht stocken zu lassen. Im Februar gesellen sich gleich zwei neue potentielle Lieblingsserien ins Portfolio. 'Henry Danger' und 'Max & Shred' bestechen durch den gewohnt verrückten Nickelodeon Humor.

Der 13-jährige Henry Hart ist ein durchschnittlicher Schüler. Doch als er auf der Suche nach einem Nebenjob zum heimlichen Gehilfen des Superhelden „Captain Man“ wird, ist sein Leben plötzlich auf den Kopf gestellt. Ab jetzt ist er neben der Schule als „Kid Danger“ unterwegs, immer auf der Hut seinen super coolen neuen Nebenjob geheim zu halten, was leichter gesagt als getan ist.
Premiere feiert die neue Serie 'Henry Danger' am 1. Februar um 17:00 Uhr und läuft von da an immer sonntags um 17:00 Uhr.

'Max & Shred' zeigt das Leben der zwei Jungen Max Asher und Alvin „Shred“ Ackerman. Während Max gerade eine steile Karriere als Profi-Snowboarder beginnt, ist Shred eher ein Strebertyp. Als Max nach Colorado zieht um sich auf einen Wettkampf vorzubereiten, werden die zwei Zimmergenossen. Auch wenn sie ziemlich verschiedene Lebensweisen haben, versuchen sie doch Freunde zu werden und navigieren sich gemeinsam durch ihren ziemlich lustigen Teenager-Alltag. 'Max & Shred' startet ebenfalls am 1. Februar und läuft immer sonntags um 18:20 Uhr.

Ab Februar stellt Nickelodeon mit 'Alles neu, alles Nick!' einen neuen Programmplatz für den Sonntagnachmittag vor. Jeden Sonntag ab 17:00 Uhr finden hier die neuesten und beliebtesten Live-Action Serien ihren Platz. Los geht es ab dem 1. Februar mir folgendem Line-Up:

17:00 Uhr – Henry Danger
17:25 Uhr – Die Thundermans
17:55 Uhr – Voll Vergeistert
18:20 Uhr – Max & Shred
