Nickelodeon HD+ India Transitions Into HD Simulcast of Main Nickelodeon Channel

Nickelodeon India, operated by JioStar under license from Paramount Networks EMEAA, has revamped its Nickelodeon HD+ channel into a high-definition simulcast of the main Nickelodeon channel. The channel transitioned into its new format on Monday 15th June 2026 at 6:00am IST.

Prior to the revamp, the channel operated independently from the main Nickelodeon channel, primarily airing Nickelodeon shows imported from the U.S., such as SpongeBob SquarePants, as opposed to the mainly locally-produced programming that airs on Nick India, such as Motu Patlu. Whilst no longer on the air, programming from Nickelodeon USA continues to be available on Nickelodeon's streaming home, JioHotstar.

The biggest difference between the newly relaunched Nick HD+ channel and Nickelodeon India is that Nickelodeon HD+ airs teleshopping.

Nickelodeon International to Premiere New 'Big Nate' Season Two Episodes In August 2026

Big Nate returns! Nickelodeon International will be premiering brand new episodes of Big Nate season two across its Nickelodeon Global Unlimited feed daily 00:20 CET starting Friday 21st August 2026!

The newly-formed Nickelodeon Global Unlimited feed is currently available in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), South Africa, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Portugal.

The news is somewhat surprising, as Nickelodeon cancelled Big Nate, produced as a Paramount+ Original, mid-way through its second season in 2024, with the series pulled from Nickelodeon and Paramount+, both in the U.S. and internationally (where Paramount+ is available). The series later became available, complete with its unaired episodes, on Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video.

However, the return of Big Nate shouldn't be a complete surprise, as Nickelodeon International recently aired seasons two and three of Rugrats (2021), another Nickelodeon-produced Paramount+ Original series that was cancelled and pulled at the same time as Big Nate, which included the world premieres of many episodes.

In new episodes of the Emmy^® nominated series, Nate Wright and his misfit group of friends tackle new adventures, face epic challenges and unleash their boundless imaginations at P.S. 38. This new season pushes the boundaries of visual creativity, featuring episodes with animation styles including stop-motion, shadow box theater, photogrammetry and claymation. With laughter, friendship and heaps of Nate's signature mischief, season two promises to be bigger, bolder, and funnier than ever.

In season two of Big Nate, with his extended family now in the picture, Nate Wright is tasked with embracing their cooky dynamics and checkered history while trying to win over the hearts of new crushes, forge new friendships, and even come to grips with some new critics.

At the time of posting, Nickelodeon International will be skipping three episodes in the new batch of Big Nate season two episodes: the Thanksgiving-themed "NATESgiving" (#216), the episode "Norchaborf", and the series finale, "Fuller House".

Below is a list of the currently scheduled all-new Big Nate episodes set to premiere on Nickelodeon International in August 2026.

Please note that, as a broadcast day runs from 6:00am-5:59am, each new episode will technically air as part of the previous day's schedule.

Friday 21st August 2026 - Nate Wright Has Left The Building: When Nate finds out he's moving away he wants the people of Rackleff to remember him fondly. Meanwhile, Amy's best friend tells her she's changed since leaving NYC so Amy is determined to prove her wrong. (#214)

Saturday 22nd August 2026 - Speed Bump Brawl: When a dispute over a speed bump at school divides the parents, Nate and Francis' friendship is tested. Chad is Kid Principal for the day but must navigate the chaos by himself when Nichols gets put out of commission. (#215)

Sunday 23rd August 2026 - Field of Nightmares: When Nate is made captain of the P.S. 38 baseball team only days before the Rackleff County Championship game, he pushes his team too hard on the path to victory. Meanwhile Francis conquers a sports related phobia. (#217)

Monday 24th August 2026 - Exes Machina: Nate is determined to win the EEW Corp science competition so he can snag the grand prize, but he is up against Nolan and his genius friends who have a few tricks up their sleeves. Francis grapples with facing his exes. (#218)

Nate and Francis enter a contest for tickets to Eew Corp Land. Nolan plans to outdo Nate, hiring Francis' exes to trip up Francis. It works. Francis never broke up with them, too afraid of confrontation. Nate needs Francis, so pressures him to build a robot to help with his relationship issues AND win top prize. The impressive ROBO-RITA wins over the judges, but also Francis' heart. So when the judges steal Rita to mass-produce her, Nate has to step up. He and Francis sneak into Eew Corp but run into Francis' exes, now interning at Eew. Still angry, they're about to report the break-in when Francis cops to his mistakes, vowing to be direct. He's forgiven, but not before Robo Rita sacrifices herself, deeming their love doomed in this corrupt world. Principal Nichols holds his own contest for the teachers to chaperone the trip should P.S. 38 win, which he's hoping won't happen. To curry favor, they shower him with gifts and services. But when P.S. 38 wins and Nichols breaks his word, it's his turn to give in to THEIR requests.

Tuesday 25th August 2026 - Scarytale Endings: With a huge haul of Halloween candy on the line, Nate makes a bet with Teddy to prove there's no such thing as ghosts. After Principal Nichols backs into a child's bike, he tries to bury the guilt. But it follows him everywhere... (#219)

Wednesday 26th August 2026 - Rackleff's A Dump: Nate's excited to collaborate with Ruby on an anti-trash art project but his desperate desire to impress her may get HIM dumped. Meanwhile, Gina and Nichols' single-use product addictions spiral out of control. (#220)

After a hole in the ozone layer appears directly over Rackleff, Mayor Klatchko issues a mandate to measure every school's trash output. Nate isn't worried. He stores all of his trash in his infinite locker so he's fine. He's got more important things to worry about anyway. Nate has a new girlfriend, Ruby! Environmental enthusiast Ruby suggests the kids create art out of trash for the town's Earth Day festival and Nate hopes to impress her with his artistic skills. Unfortunately, Nate loses Ruby's expensive dental retainer in the process, trapping it inside his artwork which is now in the clutches of his nemesis, Gina. Gina and Principal Nichols are harboring a dirty secret: they are addicted to earth destroying single use products and desperate for a place to stash their trash. When Nate reveals his secret garbage hiding spot to them in exchange for the retainer, both his locker and his relationship with Ruby explode.

Thursday 27th August 2026 - Nate Eat World: When a heartbroken Nate sings at the talent show auditions, it's so well received that he must stay down in the dumps or risk losing the band's success. Dee Dee's lack of painful life experiences impacts a performance. (#221)

It's time for P.S. 38's annual talent show and Fear the Mollusk is ready to show the school what they've got. Unfortunately, Nate just got dumped by his latest love, Ruby, and can barely hold himself, much less his drumsticks, upright. Francis, Teddy and Artur encourage Nate to channel his pain into music and Nate takes this advice to heart. He takes the stage and turns the band's latest song into an emo love ballad. The students of P.S. 38 go GAGA for Emo Nate and the band becomes an overnight sensation. Even Ruby is wowed. She had no idea Nate was so complex! But when Nate's heart begins to heal, he must choose between his thriving love life and emo career versus being his authentic happy self. Meanwhile, Dee Dee is excited to show off her acting chops at the talent show but some feedback from Dr. LaGaze has her contemplating if she has experienced enough personal turmoil to deliver powerful performances. To remedy this, Dee Dee tries to start real drama with her nearest and dearest.

Friday 28th August 2026 - Carlottha the Sloth-A: Nate finds a sloth in his backyard and campaigns for a way to keep her as a pet. Meanwhile, Teddy is suspicious and investigates how an exotic animal randomly showed up in Rackleff. (#222)

Saturday 29th August 2026 - The Unsittable One: When Ellen loses her babysitting job to a group of teenage triplets, Nate rallies his friends to bring down this ruthless babysitting monopoly! But to do so, Nate must tap into the dangerous power of the 'Unsittable One". (#223)

Sunday 30th August 2026 - Extreme Makeover: Gym Teacher Edition: After Nate's given detention for an epic prank, he offers to help Coach John impress his former classmates at a reunion in exchange for a reduced sentence. Gina is horrified to learn she's been voted "most boring" kid in class. (#225)

Big Nate is based on the best-selling children’s books and comic strip written and drawn by acclaimed author and cartoonist Lincoln Peirce.

BIG NATE is executive produced by Mitch Watson (All Hail King Julien) and John Cohen (The Angry Birds Movie) and produced by Amy McKenna (Beware the Batman) and Patrick Inness (The Adventures of Kid Danger) with Lincoln Peirce serving as consulting producer throughout development and production. Bridget McMeel is co-producer and Jim Mortensen is supervising producer.

Paramount Asks FCC to Sign Off on Middle East Investment in Warner Bros. Megamerger

The company says that the Ellisons and RedBird will control the voting stock, but that "indirect foreign ownership of equity interests in Paramount will be approximately 49.5 percent."

David Ellison, Chairman & CEO, Paramount Skydance speaks on stage during New York Upfront Partnership Event 2026 at Storied NYC on April 22, 2026 in New York City Photo by Noam Galai/Getty Images for Paramount

Paramount has asked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to sign off on its equity investment from three prominent Middle East sovereign wealth funds that are backing the company’s $111 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery.

In a petition for declaratory ruling to the FCC signed by Paramount legal chief Makan Delrahim, Paramount asks the Brendan Carr-led commission to sign off on the deal involving Saudi Arabia’s PIF (public investment fund), L’Imad, an Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund, and a Qatar Investment Authority fund.

Paramount notes that David Ellison and his father Larry Ellison, as well as RedBird Capital, will control all voting shares in the company, and that the sovereign funds are only acquiring non-voting equity shares.

“Upon consummation of the Proposed Investment, Petitioner expects that the aggregate indirect foreign ownership of equity interests in Paramount will be approximately 49.5 percent,” Paramount writes, underscoring the extent to which the company is leaning on the foreign investment.

Paramount is asking for a ruling that would allow up to 100 percent of equity or voting shares to be owned by foreign holders, though that is a procedural maneuver rather than a sign of any future plans. The FCC approval only applies to the foreign financing, not to the deal itself, which secured WBD shareholder approval last week.

“Paramount has filed a customary petition for a declaratory ruling with the FCC relating to the indirect foreign investment in Paramount’s broadcast television stations as a result of the recent equity syndication,” a Paramount spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter. “An FCC filing is completely standard for investments such as this and is not a condition to closing Paramount’s acquisition of WBD.

“When the transaction and equity syndication close, the Ellison family and RedBird will collectively hold the largest equity stake in the combined company and continue to be the sole owners of Class A Common Stock, representing 100% of the voting shares, with no other equity syndication party having any governance rights, voting shares, or Board representation,” the statement continues. “The combination of Paramount and WBD’s complementary assets will enhance competition while creating a strong champion for creative talent and consumer choice.”

The three Middle East funds were reported to be providing $24 billion of capital to back the Warners deal. The FCC filing confirms that the PIF will be the largest contributor, owning 15.1% of Paramount’s equity after the deal closes, with L’Imad owning 12.8%, and Qatar’s fund owning 10.6%. Collectively those three funds will control 38.5% of Paramount equity shares (again, non-voting shares). The remaining foreign equity owners include passive investors in RedBird funds, and entities that have acquired Paramount shares and have filed Form 13F with the SEC.

Paramount is also giving answers to the Committee for the Assessment of Foreign Participation in the United States Telecommunications Services Sector (sometimes called “Team Telecom”), which advises the FCC on national security and law enforcement concerns.

In the filing, Delrahim argued that the foreign investment will ultimately serve to bolster the company’s local news programming, improve its technology stack, and increase the diversity of programming, citing the deal for UFC fights as an example.

“Reducing barriers to further investment in Paramount, including by allowing the company to pursue additional capital from non-U.S. investors, will enable it to allocate additional resources to preserve and enhance the legacy and broad reach of the Licensees’ television broadcast operations,” Delrahim wrote. “In turn, Paramount’s ability to compete in the television broadcast and broader video marketplaces will improve, thereby promoting the strength of the industry overall. The new equity investment, leveraged on the efficiency gains resulting from the Paramount-Skydance transaction, will better position the company to weather continuing challenges facing broadcasters and operators of linear pay-television networks.”

'Sesame Street: Friends & Fun' Invites Players Into the Neighborhood In New Adventure Game

SESAME STREET: FRIENDS & FUN INVITES PLAYERS INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN NEW ADVENTURE GAME

A heartwarming narrative adventure inspired by the world’s most famous street is coming to PC and consoles in 2026.

London, UK, Friday 12th June, 2026 - Today, Outright Games has revealed Sesame Street: Friends & Fun, a brand-new 3D narrative adventure game for up to two players, inspired by the globally beloved children’s series Sesame Street. Coming 9th October 2026, to Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation^®4, PlayStation^®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, the game delivers a story-driven, exploration-led experience designed for preschoolers.

In Sesame Street: Friends & Fun, players move into the neighbourhood just as preparations begin for a big community celebration. Taking on the role of the newest resident on Sesame Street, players can fully customise their character and join their neighbours in getting everything ready for the party, with the adventure unfolding through interactive storytelling and playful surprises. Along the way, players can expect to befriend the residents, including Elmo, Grover, Bert and Ernie.

Sesame Street: Friends & Fun encourages exploration in safe and welcoming locations inspired by the show. Players can create and customise their own character, personalise their home, and explore the colourful street through light challenges and engaging activities. Mini-games and interactive tasks are woven throughout the story, introducing early math skills and concepts.

Designed specifically for young children, the focus is on a warm, funny, heartfelt story without pressure. Intuitive controls and positive reinforcement make it an accessible first gaming experience for preschoolers. Grown-ups, siblings and friends can also join in the fun with two-player local co-op, and parents can feel confident letting children explore independently in a trusted world that has supported families for generations.

Gaming and interactive experiences have been part of the Sesame Street portfolio for more than 40 years, dating back to the release of Sesame Street: Countdown for the Atari 2600 in 1981. Since then, Sesame Street has continued to explore and evolve interactive content across console games, digital apps, and SesameStreet.org. Every interactive experience is designed to strengthen children’s connections to Sesame Street characters and stories in ways that feel personal, playful, and empowering.

Since its debut in 1969, Sesame Street has become one of the most recognisable and trusted brands in children’s media worldwide. Today, Sesame Street reaches more than 300 million households across 190 countries and 30 languages. With 250 Emmy Awards and over five decades of research-backed educational impact, Sesame Street continues to connect children and families globally.

Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell Expand ‘Kenan & Kel’ Brand Into Mobile Games With Launch of 'Orange Pop!'

Orange Pop! is a free match-3 puzzle game featuring original voice performances by Thompson and Mitchell.

Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell are going mobile.

The duo have expanded their “Kenan & Kel Universe” with the launch of Orange Pop!, a free-to-play mobile game available now on the App Store and Google Play. The game marks the latest in an expansion across gaming, film, publishing and lifestyle ventures, joining a growing slate of projects that also includes the previously announced film Kenan & Kel Meet Frankenstein, a new comic book series, a lifestyle collection and more.

Orange Pop! is a free match-3 puzzle game featuring original voice performances from Thompson and Mitchell. Unlike traditional match-3 games, Orange Pop! allows players to experience exclusive reactions, jokes and commentary from Thompson and Mitchell as they progress through levels.

To celebrate the launch of Orange Pop!, Staple Games will donate $1 for every download during the game’s first 24 hours, up to $100,000, benefiting the Kenan Thompson Family Foundation and the National College Resources Foundation.

The game launch comes more than three decades after Thompson and Mitchell first broke out with their hit Nickelodeon sitcom Kenan & Kel, following finding success on All That.

“Kel and I have spent our careers creating things that bring people together through laughter, and Orange Pop! is another way to do that,” Thompson said. “This isn’t just putting our names on a game. We wanted to create something that captures the energy, humor and friendship people have connected with for years while also building something new for the next generation of fans.”

Added Mitchell: “Orange soda has always been part of the story, so bringing that spirit into a game just felt right. Orange Pop! is fun, colorful and captures the spirit that’s always been part of Kenan & Kel. Whether you’ve been with us since the beginning or you’re discovering us for the first time, we hope people have a blast playing it.”

Orange Pop! is produced by Artists for Artists, the independent studio co-founded by Thompson and John Ryan Jr., in partnership with Range Games, a division of Range Media Partners. The game is executive produced by Thompson, Mitchell and John Ryan Jr. for AFA; and Ben Jones, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones and Christian Franck (associate producer) for Range Games. It is developed and published by Staple Games.

"Working with Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell was an absolute blast" said Staple Games. "Their energy, comedic timing, and genuine love for games brought something special to every step of development. Seeing it launched on the Today Show was quite surreal."

Also on their slate is Kenan & Kel Meet Frankenstein, which is in development through Artists for Artists and Range, and a comic book series, Kenan & Kel Meet Zombies (working title), which is in development and being published by Range Comics. Additional projects slated for late 2026 include a lifestyle collection developed in collaboration with designer Sean Wotherspoon.  

“Orange Pop! is the first major step in expanding the Kenan & Kel universe across gaming, film, publishing and consumer products,” Ryan said. “At Artists for Artists, we’re focused on building enduring creator-led franchises, and this launch is just the beginning of what’s ahead.”

Check out Kenan & Kel's new mobile game, OrangePop!, now available on the App Store and Google Play.

Join Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell in Orange Pop, a match-3 puzzle game built around real voices, quick riffs, and the best-friend energy people love.

Every level gives you something to clear, something to pop, and something funny to hear. Swap colorful pieces, trigger fizzy power-ups, build streaks, and listen as Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell react to your biggest moves, close calls, and comeback wins.

Orange Pop is classic match-3 made warmer, louder, and more alive. It has the easy joy of a puzzle game you can play anytime, with the personality of two performers who know exactly how to turn a simple moment into a bit.

Play a level. Hear the banter. Chase the next star. Pop the board open.

Features:

- Match colorful pieces across hand-built puzzle levels

- Create row clears, column clears, area clears, and big combo moments

- Use boosters to shake up the board when things get tight

- Hear original voice moments from Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell

- Unlock cosmetics and build your own look for the duo

- Keep your streak going with quick, satisfying levels

- Enjoy a bright orange-pop world full of bubbles, fizz, and feel-good energy

Whether you are here for the puzzles, the voices, the nostalgia, or just a game that makes your phone feel more fun, Orange Pop is ready when you are.

Download free and start popping.
