Infinite Wisdom Studios Working On Live-Action Series For Nickelodeon International

Movie producer Michael Ford has announced the exciting news that his Birmingham, UK-based production studio Infinite Wisdom Studios (IWS) is currently working with Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) on a live-action series for Nickelodeon International!


In an interview with the Birmingham Mail, Ford, who co-produced Pudsey the Dog: The Movie, a hit family movie starring the late Pudsey the dog, who won Britain’s Got Talent in 2012, said: “I am now working on developing a live action drama for CBBC as well as a live action children’s show for Nickelodeon International. I’ve also got the rights to a Bandai Namco video game.”

Not much is currently known about IWS's new Nickelodeon show, however, Ford's LinkedIn profile page mentions that IWS is currently "developing a number of projects including original children's dramas for Viacom International (Nickelodeon) and the BBC".

Nickelodeon takes adventure to new heights in the brand-new CG-animated preschool series Top Wing (26 episodes), premiering Monday, Nov. 6, at 12:30 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nick USA. The action-packed series follows a team of eager young birds as they work together to help their island community, go on amazing adventures and earn their wings as full-feathered rescue birds. Produced by 9 Story Media Group, Top Wing features storylines that help preschoolers build self-confidence, and includes lessons about perseverance and hard work. Following its U.S. launch, Top Wing will roll out internationally in 2018.

Top Wing follows four best friend rescue birds–Swift, Penny, Rod and Brody–who are training to earn their wings at the Top Wing Academy on Big Swirl Island. With the help of their mentor Speedy, and unique turbo-charged vehicles and high-tech gadgets, the cadets are assigned different missions to sharpen their rescue skills and help those in need while learning valuable lessons along the way.

In Top Wing’s series premiere, “Time to Earn Our Wings,” cadets-in-training Swift, Penny, Rod and Brody gather at Top Wing Academy where they learn to pilot their new vehicles and become the best rescue team Big Swirl Island has ever seen.

Meet the Top Wing cadets:
  • Swift – A daring and playful blue jay who is the fastest turbo-charged pilot in the sky.
  • Penny – A curious penguin and undersea expert who is always up for a challenge in her super submarine.
  • Rod – An energetic and funny rooster who is ready to fly across the island on his all-terrain vehicle.
  • Brody – A laid-back puffin who loves to fly across, over and on the waves in turbo-charged vehicle.

Leading up to the linear series premiere of Top Wing, an all-new full-length episode and short-form content are available now on NickJr.com and the Nick Jr. App.

Top Wing is created by Matthew Fernandes of Industrial Brothers (Dot, Yup Yups, Gummandos) and executive produced by Scott Kraft (co-creator, Fresh Beat Band; executive producer/head writer, PAW Patrol), Vince Commisso for 9 Story Media Group and Matthew Fernandes and Arthur Spanos for Industrial Brothers. It is the newest series to join Nick’s top-ranked preschool roster, airing alongside hit series like PAW Patrol, Blaze and the Monster Machines, Shimmer and Shine and Sunny Day.

Fired 'The Loud House’ Creator Chris Savino Apologizes After Sexual Harassment Allegations Surface

Fired The Loud House creator Chris Savino, fired after multiple women came forward with sexual harassment allegations against him, has apologized.


Savino issued a statement on his personal Facebook page Monday 23rd October 2017, nothing that he was "deeply sorry" and was "ashamed" of his behavior.

"I am deeply sorry and I am ashamed. Although it was never my intention, I now understand the impact of my actions and communications created an uncomfortable environment," he wrote. "At every stage of my career, I have sought to uplift my colleagues and cultivate a culture of respect. In this objective, I have failed. I should have known better, I should have acted better, and this has been a difficult, but valuable lessons. I have nothing but the deepest respect for the bravery of the women who have spoken out, trying to create an environment in which they can thrive and reach their fullest potential."


Up to a dozen women have accused Savino, 46, of sexual harassment, unwanted advances and inappropriate behavior as well as threats of blacklisting female colleagues who were no longer in consensual relationships with him, according to Cartoon Brew, which was first with the news.

"Chris Savino is no longer working with Nickelodeon. We take allegations of misconduct very seriously, and we are committed to fostering a safe and professional workplace environment that is free of harassment or other kinds of inappropriate conduct," a Nickelodeon spokesperson said in a statement to the press on Thursday 19th October 2017. The Loud House, which is currently in its second season, will continue to air on Nickelodeon and be in production. Season three is scheduled to premiere in early 2018, and a theatrical movie is in the pipeline.

Savino was suspended on Wednesday 18th October 2017 as Viacom has a zero-tolerance policy for harassment. Nickelodeon Group president Cyma Zarghami also issued a memo to staff on Thursday after news of Savino's dismissal, encouraging employees to speak out. "In the current climate, it feels necessary to say that if you should encounter an uncomfortable situation at work, or witness one, you are safe to speak up," she wrote. "If you hear something, and are unsure of what to do, you are safe to tell your supervisor or Human Resources. If you need help, in any way, you are safe to ask for it."

Anne Walker Farrell, a director on the Netflix animated series Bojack Horseman, tweeted her support for Savino's suspension and was the first to go public with her allegations. And in a series of subsequent tweets, Farrell asserted that Savino had sexually harassed her 15 years ago. She used the hashtag "#MeToo," the viral social media campaign that has seen thousands of women and men come forward with their stories of abuse and assault.

The Loud House is Nickelodeon's No. 2 series among its targeted kids 2-11 demographic, behind only SpongeBob SquarePants at the network. The animated show revolves around Lincoln Loud, a boy growing up in a family with 10 sisters.

Nickelodeon's decision to fire Savino comes after Amazon Studios head of originals Roy Price resigned from the tech giant after one of the company's top producers accused the executive of sexual harassment in an exclusive interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

In the wake of the New York Times and New Yorker exposés with detailed allegations against Harvey Weinstein, more women are coming forward to share their stories of sexual harassment in a bid to create change in Hollywood.

Last week, more than 200 women and non-gender conforming people working within the animation industry issued an open letter to studios demanding an end to sexism and sexual harassment in the animation industry. However, the letter was reportedly in the works the previous last week, meaning that it is not specifically related to Chris Savino's suspension.
