Vote for Your Nickelodeon Favorites in the NickALive! Awards 2021

The NickALive! Awards are back, celebrating the best of Nickelodeon in 2021!


Throughout December, NickALive! is asking fans to vote about what they have liked best about Nickelodeon in 2021 in the second annual NickALive! Awards!

Fans can now cast their votes across 33 different categories, each representing a different part of Nickelodeon.

Apart from the 'Most Looking Forward To' categories, the nominees include programming or content broadcast or released on a Nickelodeon channel or platform between December 1, 2020 and November 30, 2021.

Although this Big Ballot is meant for Nickelodeon fans around the world, some of the nominees have only aired or have been held in the USA, whilst some have only aired internationally.

There are two ways to vote. You can start HERE and follow the breadcrumbs through each poll, or by scrolling down and selecting which poll you'd like to vote in. You don't need to vote in each category (but it would be great if you did!)

Remember, NickALive! is an unofficial website, and the inaugural 2021 NickALive! Awards fan poll is just for fun and entertainment purposes only. Unfortunately, nobody will actually receive a Splatty.

Any problems voting or questions? Let me know using the social networks listed here: http://www.nickalive.net/p/social-feed.html

The 2021 NickALive! Awards are open now and will close on Thursday 30th December 2021 at 23:59 GMT.

The results of 2021 NickALive! Awards will be revealed on midnight GMT on Saturday 1st January 2022, as part of NickALive!'s annual New Year's celebration post. Remember to let me know how you voted and why, and make sure to share the poll - each poll has its own sharing link!

Here are the nominee categories of NickALive! Awards 2021:

Important Update:

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation and as a precaution to the safety of the show's audiences, cast and staff, the 2020 PAW Patrol Live! "Race to the Rescue" tour, promoted by TEG MJR, has been postponed to Summer 2021, and will now call at Newcastle's Utilita Arena, P&J Live in Aberdeen, Leeds' First Direct Arena, Edinburgh Playhouse, SEC Armadillo in Glasgow, O2 Apollo Manchester, Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena, Dublin's 3Arena, Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena, Brighton Centre, Arena Birmingham, London's SSE Arena Wembley, Bournemouth International Centre, SSE Arena Belfast, M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool and Llandudno's Venue Cymru between June 26 and August 31, 2021.

Ultimately show organisers have a responsibility to protect the well-being of the community and they believe this is the correct decision to make. Organisers thank you for your understanding at this time. Stay safe and the PAW Patrol Live! crew look forward to seeing you in 2021.

Featuring a cast of everybody’s favourite PAW Patrol characters, PAW Patrol Live! “Race to the Rescue” shows that “no job is too big, no pup is too small”, and shares lessons for all ages about citizenship, social skills and problem-solving as the characters each use their unique skills and teamwork. The show engages audiences with Bunraku puppetry, an innovative costuming approach that brings the PAW Patrol characters to life on stage along with their vehicles and packs.

The show includes two acts and an intermission and incorporates an innovative costume approach that brings the pups to life on stage with their vehicles and packs during the all-important rescue mission.

Netflix & ViacomCBS International Studios Team on Animated Kids Series ‘Sharkdog’

Update (4/8): Official Netflix Press Release via TheFutonCritic.com:

NETFLIX WELCOMES A NEW PET TO THE FAMILY IN AN ALL-NEW ANIMATED SERIES "SHARKDOG"

-- New series from ViacomCBS International Studios and first-time Singaporean creator will be available to audiences worldwide in 2021 --


Netflix and ViacomCBS International Studios (VIS) announce Sharkdog an animated series from Singaporean creator Jacinth Tan.

The 20 x 7 minute episode animated series is produced by ViacomCBS International Studios, in partnership with Singaporean based CGI animation studio One Animation, and will premiere in 2021.

Logline: The series follows 10 year old Max and his best friend Sharkdog - half shark, half dog, all appetite. Blissfully unaware of his own strength, stealth and general sharkiness, Sharkdog often leaves a trail of chaos in his wake. But, like all good half-dogs, he's Max's BFF and Max is his.

Sharkdog is VIS' first internationally originated global animated series for Netflix. It is also the first animated series from Singapore to come out of Nickelodeon's Global Animated Shorts Program, designed to identify and develop long form original comedy-driven content for kids globally.

Update (11/8) - ViacomCBS recently applied to patent Sharkdog with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) under the categories of " Games; toys; sports equipment", "Clothing; footwear; headgear" and "Education; entertainment". All three applications are currently pending. Interestingly, the show is being patented under the title Sharkdog Nickelodeon. It's currently unknown whether this related to the Nickelodeon series, or the upcoming Netflix series.

###

Update (3/27/1) - ViacomCBS has given us a first look at the Sharkdog logo! Interestingly, the media company has applied to trademark the title under the Nickelodeon banner:


Original post:

Netflix has ordered new animated kids show, Sharkdog, from ViacomCBS International Studios (VIS)!

The streamer has ordered 20 episodes of the 7-minute show, created by first-time Singaporean creator Jacinth Tan that will air in 2021. The show is produced by VIS in partnership with Singaporean based CGI animation studio One Animation (Oddbods).

It marks VIS’ first internationally originated global animated series for Netflix.

The show follows 10-year old Max and his best friend Sharkdog – half shark, half dog, all appetite. Blissfully unaware of his own strength, stealth and general sharkiness, Sharkdog often leaves a trail of chaos in his wake. But, like all good half-dogs, he’s Max’s BFF and Max is his.

Sharkdog originally came out of Nickelodeon’s Global Animated Shorts Program, which is designed to identify and develop original comedy-driven content for kids, in 2015. You can see an early vision of the show above and this will be updated for Netflix. Sharkdog is also the first animated series from Singapore to come out of Nickelodeon’s Global Animated Shorts Program.

Nickelodeon International subsequently announced in 2017 that it had greenlit a series of 90-second shorts based on the characters, which debuted as a short-form digital series for the Nickelodeon Play App in Asia.

It is the latest agreement between a ViacomCBS company and Netflix. Last year, Nickelodeon and Netflix struck an output deal that will yield original animated feature films and TV series based on existing Nickelodeon library characters as well as newly created ones. Prior to the agreement, Netflix ordered forthcoming specials based on The Loud House and Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The deal builds on a relationship that has brought animated specials Rocko’s Modern Life: Static Cling, Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus and Glitch Techs to Netflix. Netflix is also producing a live-action version of Nickelodeon's beloved animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender.

It is the latest third-part order for the ViacomCBS division, which has been stepping up its development and production of ideas for non-ViacomCBS networks. Last month, ViacomCBS’ UK production studio scored its first U.S. order – a ten-part music documentary series for Reelz called The Story of the Songs.

Sharkdog was the first Singaporean series to come out of the competition. But it’s in good company, as several animated shorts from Nick’s program have turned into full fledged series recently. This includes Toronto-based prodco Nelvana’s new 26 x 22-minute animated series Ollie’s Pack, which began as an original short dubbed Monster Pack for Nickelodeon’s 2013 Animated Shorts Program. And, in January, Nickelodeon premiered the 2D-animated comedy series It’s Pony (20 x 22 minutes), which was part of Nick’s 2015 Global Animated shorts program.

Hasbro Unveils 'Power Rangers Dino Fury' Sneak Peek at Hasbro PulseCon

It's morphin' time, all over again!


Hasbro has unveiled a Morphinominal first look at the 28th season of Power Rangers, titled Power Rangers Dino Fury. The trailer, below, debuted during the Power Rangers Entertainment Panel at Hasbro PulseCon on Saturday, September 26.

Update (1/31) - Nickelodeon is slated to premiere Power Rangers Dino Fury in February 2021!


Power Rangers Official | Power Rangers Dino Fury Official Trailer | Dino Fury

Check out this amazing trailer for the BRAND NEW Power Rangers series: POWER RANGERS DINO FURY!!!!!

When an army of powerful alien beings is unleashed on Earth threatening life as we know it, a brand-new team of Power Rangers, fuelled by the pre-historic power of the dinosaurs, are recruited to deal with the threat.

Trailer transcription: "65 million years ago an ancient force brought the power of the Morphin Grid to planet Earth. Now, the forces of evil have come to claim that power, and a group of heroes must rise up to meet this challenge. Harnessing the energy of the Morphin Grid with the prehistoric power of Dino Fury. They will unlock incredible new Morphers, Dino Powered Weapons, powerful new Zords, and astonishing new Megazords. In the tradition of dinosaur teams of the past comes a brand new entry, Power Rangers Dino Fury."

The new season of the iconic franchise, adapted from Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger, gets a modern update with a prehistoric twist when an army of powerful alien beings is unleashed on Earth, threatening life as we know it. A brand-new team of Power Rangers, fueled by the prehistoric power of the dinosaurs, are recruited to deal with the threat.

Power Rangers Dino Fury will premiere in early 2021 on Nickelodeon in the U.S. But check out the new season's trailer above now for a sneak peek at the action.

Hasbro's Power Rangers Entertainment Panel at Hasbro PulseCon also featured the Power Rangers Beast Morphers cast chatting all about season 2, currently airing on Nick, but it also featured the long-awaited official debut of 3 members of the Dino Fury cast.

While we didn't get all of the Rangers yet, fans did get the Red, Blue, and Pink Ranger reveals and them on video for their introductions.

Russell Curry will be playing Zato, the Dino Fury Red Ranger, while Kai Moya will be playing Ali (or Ollie, there seems to be some confusing surrounding the name), the Dino Fury Blue Ranger. Hunter Dano will be playing Amelia, the Pink Ranger.

This is a fairly generic teaser featuring a few new CGI shots but mostly just Sentai footage. The trailer itself teases a story that will involve the backstory of the Morphin Grid being brought to Earth 65 million years ago. Now in present day evil has come to claim that power. A new group of heroes will ruse up to the challenge and harness the Morphin Grid to become Power Rangers Dino Fury!

The footage revealed also gave us a look at the new morphers, a few battle sequences, and the newest Zords, and we can't wait to see more.

Hopefully it won't be long before we get the rest of the cast, but this was a pretty cool way to end the panel. There’s any number of factors that go into casting, especially during COVID-19 (coronavirus), but getting Red, Blue, and Pink all together makes sense since they form the core mecha for the season. We’re sure we’ll hear more about casting in the coming months.

The official synopsis for Dino Fury can be found below:

"When an army of powerful alien beings is unleashed on Earth threatening life as we know it, a brand-new team of Power Rangers, fueled by the pre-historic power of the dinosaurs, are recruited to deal with the threat! Power Rangers Dino Fury premieres 2021 on Nickelodeon!"

In 2018, the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers cast spoke to EW 25 years after donning the iconic colored suits to look back on becoming an instant phenomenon, explain why most of them walked away from the show, and describe what it was really like wearing that spandex.

"The show was campy, it was fun, it was colors, it was karate, but at the end of the day it had a ton of heart and was teaching teamwork," Jason David Frank, who played Green Ranger, Tommy, told EW.

You can check out the official Power Rangers Entertainment Panel description below:

Panelists: Andre Meadows (@BlackNerd), Power Rangers Beast Morphers Cast

Unleash the Beasts! The cast of Power Rangers Beast Morphers will be reuniting live at PulseCon sharing behind the scenes stories from the set and talking about what life has been like being a Power Ranger! The panel, moderated by Andre Meadows (@BlackNerd), will feature never before seen footage and a live Q&A. If that’s not enough, we’ll be making a historic announcement….or should we say PREHISTORIC! Ranger Nation, if this panel could be summed up in one word, it would be MORPHINOMINAL!

What do you think of the Dino Fury cast so far? Let me know in the comments or as always feel free to talk with me on Twitter @DailyNickNews!


Power Rangers: Dino Fury Trailer Reveals the Return of Dinozords

The newest season of the Power Rangers TV show will see the spandex-clad heroes suit up and fight aliens in dinosaur-themed robot mechs yet again.

The latest season of the long-running Power Rangers TV series, Power Rangers: Dino Fury, will see the return of the prehistoric-themed mechs called Dinozords. Debuting back in 1993, Power Rangers follows the eponymous teenaged heroes as they defend the Earth in style from various foes. The series is based on the Japanese TV show, Super Sentai, part of a genre called "tokusatsu" in which live-action is altered with heavy use of special effects. The massive franchise has gone on for years, expanding the universe, adding to their many adventures, and cycling through countless actors portraying each of the rangers.

Nickelodeon has announced that Power Rangers season 28 will release some time in 2021. The series will feature an all-new team of rangers defending the Earth from an alien threat. Throughout the years the rangers have acquired various new powers, but none are quite as captivating as the Zords. Each of the Mighty Morphin' crew is able to suit up in one of these large mechs for taking on bigger enemies. If things get really hairy, they can form a Megazord, a Voltron-esque giant robot that the rangers pilot as one.

The Power Rangers Official YouTube page recently released the new trailer for Power Rangers: Dino Fury. The latest season will see the return of the Dinozords, which have appeared periodically throughout the Power Rangers canon, most recently in 2015's Dino Charge. According to the new trailer for the season, the aliens that have come to Earth are seeking the prehistoric power for themselves, and the new team of Power Rangers will have to use the Dinozords to prevent their power from falling into the wrong hands.

It's no secret that kids love Power Rangers and dinosaurs, so blending the two together is never a bad idea from a marketing perspective. Hasbro has been eager to release new merchandise for the franchise, announcing Power Rangers toys at their first-ever PulseCon. Old fans ready for a hit of nostalgia will be happy to see the return of the fan-favorite Dinozords, and new fans will have their minds blown for the first time.

The time is ripe for a return to form for Power Rangers. A slightly grittier 2017 movie based on the franchise was planned to be the first entry in a planned film series, but it was a flop. The creative minds that be seem to have taken the hint and decided to stick more closely to what people love so much about the franchise, as the upcoming film will fit into the same continuity as the Power Rangers series. Since the new film will include past suits and Zords, it seems fitting that Power Rangers: Dino Fury will serve to catch new fans up on the Dinozords before they eventually hit the big screen.
