Nickelodeon USA To Fully Premiere "100 Things To Do Before High School" During Summer 2015

Just Jared Jr. is reporting the very exciting Nickelodeon news that, following Nick USA debuting the networks "100 Things To Do Before High School" TV movie special in November 2014, Nickelodeon USA will fully launch their brand-new series, which will introduce Nickelodeon's latest crop of super-star talent, during the Summer 2015 programming season!


"100 Things To Do Before High School" is a brand-new live-action creator-driven comedy-focused series from "Big Time Rush" creator and executive producer Scott Fellows. The half-hour, single-camera series follows three best friends as they navigate the highs and lows of middle school, with the help of a bucket list of adventures that help them overcome class cliques, terrifying bullies and clueless teachers.


Isabela Moner (CJ Parker), Jaheem Toombs (Fenwick) and Owen Joyner (Crispo) in "100 Things To Do Before High School".

With real life and teen drama awaiting her after 8th grade graduation, CJ Parker (Isabela Moner) has only a short time left to make the most of her middle school years. Together with her two lifelong best friends Fenwick (Jaheem Toombs) and Crispo (Owen Joyner), she is determined to get the most out of this time, using an ever-expanding list of challenges as a guide. For this group, growing up means trying everything and taking chances while they still can.

To celebrate, Just Jared Jr. has also exclusively premiered the brand-new music video for Isabela Moner's cover of the popular Duffy song "Mercy", which you can watch in the video clip below!:



To further celebrate Nickelodeon USA starting to air "100 Things To Do Before High School" very soon, Teen.com has unveiled a fantastic interview with Isabela Moner, which you can read below!:
We Just Found the Next Victoria Justice!


Actresses like Victoria Justice are hard to come by. Let's face it, it's not everyday that you come across a super talented triple-threat! That's why we are SO excited about Hollywood's newest addition, Isabela Moner. Not only does she look to Victoria as one of her acting role models, but at just 13 years old, Isabela has already gotten her big acting break on Nickelodeon's newest series 100 Things to Do Before High School. Sound familiar? That's because Victoria's rise to fame all started around the same age with her first big gig as Lola on Nickelodeon's Zoey 101. And as they say, the rest is history.

We talked to the Cleveland native and she spilled on life, friends, some things on her own bucket list and tons of fun stories from the 100 Things to Do Before High School set. And, don't worry, it doesn't look like there are any Victorious feuds in the making:

Congratulations on 100 Things to Do Before High School! Do you remember where you were when you found out your would be playing CJ?

"Yeah, it's a funny story. The week before I told my mom that if she was ever going to tell me that I got the role it had to be a surprise. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to tell the story. So, I was with my dad on a racetrack to race carts. It was my first time and I was really excited. The worker there told me all about how to use the cart. And then he said, 'You're going to be using cart 315, which is the channel that your new show is going to be on.' It was so overwhelming that I started crying. I didn't even think that I was going to cry but then all these emotions came at once. I couldn't even imagine doing this three years ago and now I'm finally here. My mind is blown."

Did you have a favorite Nickelodeon show or character that you looked to for inspiration when you found out you got the role?

"Yeah, I definitely look up to Victoria Justice, Miranda Cosgrove, Josh Peck – he's hilarious. I love all those stars"

Can you tell us more about CJ?

"CJ is very determined, outgoing, friendly and she's very persuasive. She knows what she wants and how to get it — not in a manipulative way, but she knows how to get a team going and working together. She's like the peanut butter to the jelly sandwich. You could have the bread and the jelly, but you need the peanut butter to stick together. That's kind of how I think of Owen (Joyner), Jaheem (Toombs) and I. Jaheem is the bread, Owen the jelly and I need to be the peanut butter in the middle to keep them together. Otherwise, I don't think the three of them would be friends because they all have their differences."


Instagram (@isabelamoner)

Jaheem and Owen play your two best friends — Fenwick and Crispo — did you get a chance to meet them before filming started?

"I didn't get to meet them before auditions.We met at the mix and match, which is kind of seeing which kids work together. It's a cool process because you meet a bunch of other kids and we're still friends with them too. When I first walked into the audition room, Jaheem was the first person I talked to. I was kind of nervous because I'm not the type of person that can walk into a room and be friends with everyone. He even told me that he thought I was going to get the part. We just became friends automatically. I didn't talk to Ownen much, but as soon as we got comfortable with each other, we started sharing snacks and talking. So, yeah it wasn't really awkward when we started filming. We were friends and now we are like brothers and sisters. I spend every day with them. We haven't really had any fights. We have had feuds but it really is like brothers and sisters fighting."

What are some of the things that would be on your bucket list?

"1. Face my biggest fear — not sure what my biggest fear is yet but I want to face it. I think my biggest fear may be writing a song and performing. I write songs but performing it for people is something I just can't do.

2. Go to prom. I want to do that. It's probably also a fear of mine!

3. Cook my family a meal. I don't know how to cook so I need to learn how to cook. I'm a pro-microwaver! Mac N Cheese is my go-to.

4. I would like to meet Ellen.

5. Go to a Beyoncé concert. I love her and she's one of my idols.

6. I want to master the guitar. I know how to play a little, but I really want to master it like Ed Sheeran level.

7. Make a YouTube channel. I've done live streams with my friends, which is kind of like a YouTube channel but easier way of doing it."


Instagram (@isabelamoner)

Has it been difficult balancing school and acting?

"Yeah, because school and acting don't really go together that much. But, I think I have a good balance between them. I like to work ahead and I'm working ahead in my level. We need at least three hours of school a day on set. It's two different mind sets that you have to put on. You have to be really serious for school and fun on set."

What about time for fun? What are some of your favorite things to do in your down time?

"My favorite thing to do is probably watch Netflix. I have to take advantage of my downtime. But I also really love to go hiking and I love views. I think those are the most memorable moments of your life. You're in the moment and take tons of pictures of it. I love going to places that no one has ever been before and finding little secret passages. When I'm in New York I love going on rooftops or if I'm in LA I'll go hiking by the Hollywood sign."


Instagram (@isabelamoner)

When you go back home for a little while, what's the first thing you do?

"Definitely microwave food and contact my friends that I haven't seen in a long time. I really miss them all the time. I'm also bad at texting back so that's a bad flaw of mine. But I try to keep in touch with them. I do like going to NY because it's just very real. In LA everyone is so nice and it's just not real. You need a dose of reality in there every once and a awhile and a dose of mean people."

Growing up you did a lot of singing and acting in Broadway shows. Is that something that you hope to pursue?

"Yeah, I definitely want to continue dancing. And if I can do the singing thing too then I can dance in music videos, which would be fun because I don't know if I would have the discipline to go to dance school for several years. I take classes though. I want to keep going with acting. Maybe I'll win an award some day. My absolute dream is to perform at the Grammy's!"

2014's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", which starred Megan Fox and Will Arnett, was a major financial success for Paramount, making $191 million at the US box office and $485M worldwide. "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" also packed a major punch with phenomenal sales during its first week of release on Blu-ray and DVD in the USA (Region A/1). The franchise has been such a success that Paramount dated the sequel for 2016 before even locking down a director or cast.

Original Nickelodeon Deutschland Press Release:

Sprichwörtlich in die Röhre geguckt: Nickelodeon stellt zum 'Spieltag' 2015 wieder auf Schwarz

Nickelodeon 'Spieltag' 2015 am Freitag, den 19. Juni von 13:00 bis 17:00 Uhr // Keine Chance fĂĽr Couchpotatoes: Informationen und Spielideen auf www.nick.de

Berlin, 22. April 2015 – Nickelodeon zelebriert auch in diesem Jahr wieder den 'Spieltag'. Am 19. Juni setzt der Kindersender dafĂĽr das gewohnte Programm fĂĽr einige Stunden aus und sendet von 13:00 bis 17:00 Uhr Schwarzbild.

Der Nickelodeon 'Spieltag' ist eine Initiative mit Tradition. Einmal im Jahr zieht der Kindersender den Stecker und ruft seine jungen Zuschauer zum Spielen auf. Als einziger Kindersender Deutschlands gibt Nickelodeon den bekannten und beliebten Serienhelden eine Pause und bewegt die Kids stattdessen dazu, nach DrauĂźen zu gehen und zu spielen. Hauptsache aktiv: egal ob im eigenen Garten, beim Schulfest oder auf dem Spielplatz.

Ein deutschlandweiter Aufruf an rund 16.000 Grundschulen, lädt dazu ein, am 19. Juni ein Nickelodeon 'Spieltag'-Schulfest auszurichten. Ausgewählt werden 100 Schulen, die ein umfangreiches Spielpaket erhalten. Damit können Spielstationen rund um die Themen Geschicklichkeit, Kreativität, Spaß und mehr kreiert werden. So wird der Schulhof zum buntesten Spielplatz des Ortes.

Seit 2012 erweitert Nickelodeon den 'Spieltag' auch auf die markeneigenen Online-Plattformen und nimmt das Online-Programm weitgehend offline oder bietet es nur beschränkt an. Vorab wird es auf www.nick.de Tipps und Ideen zum Thema „DrauĂźen-Spielen“ geben.

Um 17:00 Uhr kehrt der Kindersender dann mit dem gewohnt bunten und lustigen Programm zurĂĽck und zeigt den Nickelodeon Spielfilm 'Cosmo und Wanda: Auwei, Hawaii!'.

Der Nickelodeon 'Spieltag' folgt dem Beispiel des 'Worldwide Day of Play' des US-amerikanischen Muttersenders, der seinen 'Day of Play' bereits 2003 ins Leben gerufen hat. In Nordeuropa wird der fernsehfreie Tag zu verschiedenen Tagen auch in der Schweiz, Dänemark, Schweden, Norwegen, den Niederlanden und auch in Polen veranstaltet.

Über Nickelodeon:

Seattle Seahawks' Super Bowl QB Russell Wilson to Host Nickelodeon's "Kids' Choice Sports 2015"

Original Nickelodeon USA Press Release via Business Wire:


Seattle Seahawks' Super Bowl QB Russell Wilson to Host Nickelodeon's Second Annual Kids’ Choice Sports!

Kids' Choice Sports 2015 to Air Live Thursday, July 16 at 8PM (ET/PT) from UCLA's Pauley Pavilion In Los Angeles

April 22, 2015 11:14 AM Eastern Daylight Time

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nickelodeon today announced that Seattle Seahawks' two-time Super Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson will serve as host for Kids' Choice Sports 2015, which returns for its second year live from UCLA's Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles on Thursday, July 16 (8-9:30 p.m. ET/PT, tape delayed for West Coast). The superstar quarterback takes the hosting baton from first-year master of ceremonies Michael Strahan, who will continue to serve as executive producer, as the best athletes and top celebrities from around the world come together in a one-of-a-kind celebration of kids' love of sports.

With special guests, performances, outrageous competitions and unique categories to be announced in the coming weeks, Kids' Choice Sports 2015 will be bursting with fun, unforgettable moments, epic slimings and sheer 'fan'-demonium that can only happen on Nickelodeon. For the second straight year, kids from around the country will show their support for their favorite athletes, teams and sports moments and decide who will take home a cherished, one-of-a-kind Nickelodeon orange mohawked blimp trophy.

"I am thrilled that Nickelodeon has asked me to host Kids' Choice Sports. What an honor to be the king of slime for one crazy night! I had so much fun at the show last summer that I can't wait to get back. What kid doesn't want to get slimed? Count me in on that. I'm just a big kid at heart, so let the fun begin. I promise you, we're going to have great fun," said Russell Wilson.

Last year's inaugural Kids' Choice Sports certainly set the bar high. Worldwide superstar David Beckham was presented with the first Kids' Choice Sports' Legend Award, and celebrated by being showered in golden slime with his kids; Marshawn Lynch went into "Beast Mode," running through a gauntlet and diving into a pool of slime; superstars Dwyane Wade, Tim Howard, Serena Williams, Kevin Durant, Gabby Douglas, Victor Cruz, Carmelo Anthony, each took home a KCS trophy; and in an epic halftime show, Florida Georgia Line performed, and then the Pauley Pavilion roof nearly blew off when 15-year-old Ricardo Jacobo Jr. from Los Angeles sank a half-court shot live, winning a $50,000 grand prize.

Russell Wilson is expanding his repertoire as he takes on hosting duties for Kids' Choice Sports, though he is already making history: he has won more games in his first three seasons than any QB in the history of the league and he is first quarterback to start two Super Bowls in his first three seasons. Wilson also became the third youngest quarterback in NFL history to win the Super Bowl. Named to the NFC Pro Bowl, Pepsi Max NFL Rookie of the Year, and Sports Illustrated Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2012, Wilson tied Peyton Manning's 1998 record for most touchdown passes by a rookie (26) and became the first rookie in NFL history to lead his team to an undefeated home record. In 2013, Wilson led the Seahawks to its first ever Super Bowl victory and led the Seahawks to their second consecutive Super Bowl appearance in 2014.

Kids' Choice Sports 2015 Presenting Sponsors include Verizon. Associate Sponsors include Nationwide and Popsicle®.

Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Sports 2015 is produced by Done and Dusted in association with Nickelodeon Productions. Jay Schmalholz and Shelly Sumpter Gillyard are executive producers. Constance Schwartz and Michael Strahan of SMAC Entertainment will serve as executive producers, alongside Ian Stewart and Hamish Hamilton of Done and Dusted with Hamilton also serving as director of the show.

Nickelodeon, now in its 36th year, is the number-one entertainment brand for kids. It has built a diverse, global business by putting kids first in everything it does. The company includes television programming and production in the United States and around the world, plus consumer products, online, recreation, books and feature films.
