She’ll have you feeling better in one, two, three!

Vida the Vet

Vida the Vet made its debut on BBC's CBeebies and streaming platform BBC iPlayer in the UK and Corus Entertainment's Treehouse and streaming platform STACKTV in Canada during the Fall of 2023 as the 13th series from the creators of the powerhouse preschool franchise PAW Patrol, and has since been made available on Netflix.

Spin Master Entertainment is orchestrating a strategic global franchise roll-out and will lead consumer products cross-category licensing worldwide, which launched with toys in 2024. Corus Entertainment's Nelvana has been secured as the exclusive licensing and merchandising representative for the brand in Canada and France, whilst WildBrain CPLG represents the franchise in the U.K. and Ireland, Europe (excluding France), Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), Middle East and Africa (MENA) and Asia-Pacific (APAC) including China, Japan and Korea (excluding Australia and New Zealand).

"Featuring a gorgeous, colorful world with a distinct look and feel, Vida the Vet will enchant preschoolers and their families with curious, courageous and caring stories about a little girl and her animal neighbors who show us how to take care of ourselves and others." 

"The classic and familiar world of Vida the Vet, with its beautiful 2D artwork and core theme of nurturing love for all animals, is the perfect property to extend across all facets of children's lives," said André Lake Mayer, Spin Master's SVP, Global Strategic Partnerships & Consumer Products.  "We are excited to activate our growing consumer products enterprise with a fresh new property that will resonate within all key categories and regions and through strategic partnerships and promotions worldwide."

Katara Joins The Quest In 'NickToons & the Dice of Destiny'

A calm mind. A fierce spirit. A wave of power.

Katara | Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny

GameMill Entertainment has revealed that master waterbender Katara from Nickelodeon's beloved animated series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, is the next hero joining the quest in Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny, unleashing a full kit of spellcasting abilities on the four-player co-op game!

Calm, focused, and absolutely icing the competition with her frozen rain barrage and frozen prison abilities, Katara is a Spellcaster/Healer, and brings to the game several fighting skills and healing abilities, including the Water Whip, a Classic Southern Water Tribe technique, along with Water Wave, Ice Pillar, Focus, Frozen Prison, Healing Pool, and Frozen Rain.

The character reveal also provides a closer look at the game's art style. SpongeBob's typical look didn't have to change much, as it ports well into Dice of Destiny. Katara, meanwhile, has been reimagined as a shorter, squishier character to suit the game's aesthetic, much like how the game handles Leonardo, the Ninja Turtle, who is also making his way to the family game as seen below.

Katara's abilities

The waterbender naturally has a host of water-based abilities that will deal damage to enemies and/or heal allies, making Katara a reliable support character for your Nicktoons party.

  • Water Whip - Whips enemies with water, restoring her mana in the process. Leaves behind a puddle that speeds up allies and slows enemies.
  • Focus - Restores mana and provides a shield that reduces incoming damage.
  • Water Wave - Summons a massive wave that pushes enemies back while dealing damage.
  • Ice Pillar - Raises a tower of ice that shoots spinning frost discs outward in all directions.
  • Healing Pool - Creates an area-of-effect healing area for allies.
  • Frozen Prison - Freezes puddles and enemies at once, dealing damage and stopping enemies in their tracks.
  • Frozen Rain Barrage - Summons an ice storm that rains down on the battlefield.

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny - Katara Character Showcase

Katara | Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny

Katara joins previously announced characters SpongeBob SquarePants and Leonardo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, with several more will be unveiled soon. Can you identify anyone from the silhouettes below?

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny is a vibrant, universe-spanning mashup that brings iconic Nickelodeon heroes into a world of fantasy-style tropes and real-time RPG action. 

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny is coming Fall ‘25 to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X | S, Nintendo Switch, Steam, and Epic Games Store. To wishlist on your favorite platforms, visit GameMill Entertainment's game page at https://gamemill.com/games/nicktoonsdiceofdestiny/

‘PAW Patrol’ Set to Bound Onto Netflix U.S. in Summer 2025

Netflix has acquired the streaming rights to two early seasons of one of Nickelodeon's most popular preschool series!

The beloved CG-animated preschool series PAW Patrol, which, produced by Spin Master Entertainment, airs on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. channels globally, has been streaming on Netflix in many regions worldwide over the past few years, but for the first time, Netflix in the United States will be picking up two of the early seasons for two years starting this Summer.

On the air since 2013, PAW Patrol is one of the defining kids’ animated series of the past two decades, with 262 episodes under its belt with many more to come, in addition to movies, specials, live shows and games. Created by Jamie Whitney and Keith Chapman, the series follows six heroic puppies led by a tech-savvy 10-year-old who pull off high-stakes rescue missions using humor, problem-solving skills, and cool vehicles.

Netflix in the United States has been the home to the spin-off series Rubble & Crew since December 9th of last year, but it’ll soon be joined by the show that started it all – PAW Patrol. Spin Master's Investor Presentation for the North American International Toy Fair 2025 confirms that two seasons will commence streaming from July 1st, 2025.

Netflix US will add seasons 2 and 3 (each consisting of 26 22-minute episodes). It is licensed for two years, with streaming of those seasons beginning on Tuesday, July 1st, 2025, and expiring on Wednesday, June 30th, 2027.

The document also discloses that the Rubble & Crew show license is coming up for renewal around the same time. That means it could leave on June 30th, 2025, if no further deal is reached. Netflix US also streamed the 2021 movie PAW Patrol: The Movie for 6 months between July 2024 and January 2025.

Update (6/26): Rubble & Crew season one will be leaving Netflix on Tuesday, July 1.

The addition won’t impact Paramount+, which is still the central place to stream the show in the United States, with 10 seasons currently available. Prime Video’s renewal discussion kicks off in July, per the document. 

Internationally, the show is more widely available, but often only with a few seasons. Most regions that currently carry the show only have access to seasons 7 and 8, with a few exceptions like Australia and the UK, which also carry season 1. Canada currently carries seasons 4 through 11 at the time of publishing. Despite that limited availability, the show is still incredibly popular on Netflix. Last year, the show ranked as the fourth most popular kids series with only Peppa Pig, Gabby’s Dollhouse, and CoComelon ahead of it. 

Between the movies, various available series and specials on Netflix, the franchise picked up 1.46 billion hours watched globally between 2023 and 2024, according to the Netflix Engagement Reports.

In the Spin Master document, they note that Unicorn Academy will be expanding its reach to more broadcasters than just Netflix, including a Nickelodeon launch in the U.S. in April 2025. They also teased the new “special events,” which Netflix is dubbing seasons 3 and 4. "Legendary Summer" was released on Wednesday, April 9th, with "Winter Solstice" scheduled to land on Thursday, November 6th.

PAW Patrol fans can stream full PAW Patrol episodes and movies, including The Mighty Movie, on Paramount+. Try it FREE today at ParamountPlus.com.
