CHARACTER BIOS

VIV
Audrey Grace Marshall as Viv is an old soul who dreams of a quiet life on a farm. Those dreams are disrupted when her father, TY, moves them to the loud and proud town of Dimmsdale. Viv, who is often the most measured, level-headed person in a room, is a fish out of water in the chaos of this colorful, odd town.

ROY
Tyler Wladis as Roy is equally confident as he is kindhearted, Roy is an eternal optimist with the best intentions. Outwardly, Roy exudes the qualities of a quintessential jock: confident, handsome, insanely talented at sports.

ZINA
Imogen Cohen as Zina is a student at Dimmsdale Middle School and is ROY’s #1 fan. She confidently marches to the beat of her own drum yet is easily distracted.

RACHEL
Laura Bell Bundy as Rachel is born and raised in Dimmsdale, Rachel is incredibly beautiful, confident, loud, and a bit of a diva.

TY
Ryan-James Hatanaka as Ty is Viv’s father, who is exceptionally handsome and well put together. He can be overly confident and somewhat oblivious, but generally means well.

WANDA
Wanda Is the slightly more responsible, pragmatic better half of Cosmo. She’s got every inch of enthusiasm, excitement and energy as her husband.

COSMO
Cosmo Is a whirlwind of energy who rips through Viv & Roy’s life with a combination of optimism, fun and the slightly dangerous inability to see any repercussions to his actions.

OSN+ can be accessed online and via iOS and Android apps. The service costs USD 9.5/- per month and includes a 7-day Free Trial, stream now at www.osnplus.com

Nick Jr. Arabia to Premiere 'Abby Hatcher' on Sunday 26th May 2019

WHEN TROUBLE IS ON THE WAY, ONE LITTLE GIRL WILL SAVE THE DAY IN ABBY HATCHER, NICKELODEON’S BRAND-NEW ANIMATED PRESCHOOL SERIES PREMIERING MAY 2019 ON NICK JR. ARABIA


Share it: #AbbyHatcher


Nickelodeon’s brand-new animated preschool series, Abby Hatcher (created and produced by Spin Master Entertainment), tells the story of a little girl with a big heart who helps her friends, the amazing and quirky Fuzzly creatures, fix their mishaps, learn from their mistakes and negotiate their emotions. Launching on Nick Jr. Arabia (جَزِيرَةُ الْعَرَب) on Sunday 26th May 2019 at 17:41 KSA, Abby Hatcher (26 episodes) features a social-emotional curriculum highlighting empathy, compassion and problem-solving skills. Following launch, new episodes of Abby Hatcher, locally titled آبي هاتشر in Arabia, will continue to air daily at 17:41 KSA on the Nick Jr. channel in Arabia.

In Abby Hatcher, Abby is an eternally optimistic, kind-hearted seven-year-old girl who loves to lend a helping hand to others and accepts everyone--no matter how different they are. In Abby’s world, humans coexist with Fuzzlies, incredible creatures that each have their own unique abilities that make them special, and Abby’s parents’ hotel is home to many. Together with her best Fuzzly friend Bozzly, Abby goes on wild adventures to fix Fuzzly mishaps and help them in any way she can. Whenever a problem arises Abby and Bozzly always say, “Fuzzly trouble can’t delay, to the rescue, save the day!”

Below is the official synopsis for Abby Hatcher in Arabia:

"تخوض آبي هاتشر البالغة من العمر سبعة أعوام وصديقها بوزلي في مغامرات عديدة لمساعدة أصدقائها "ذا فازليز" في حل مشاكلهم."



In the series premiere of Abby Hatcher, “When Abby Met Bozzly/Hair Flair Everywhere,” Abby meets the best friend of her dreams, a fuzzly named Bozzly, for the first time. Then, when the hotel’s salon owner Mrs. Melvin closes the salon for the day, Abby tries to help Harriet, a hair-obsessed Fuzzly, find a new hobby, when all she really wants is to style. In additional new episodes, Mo and Bo are mistaken for a snow monster, and, after taking a tumble, Otis suffers a fear of heights and becomes scared to use his elevator.


Abby Hatcher made its world debut on Nickelodeon in the U.S. on Tuesday, January 1, 2019, and will be rolling out on Nickelodeon’s international channels and branded blocks throughout 2019. The series also airs on TVO and Knowledge in Canada.

Abby Hatcher is the ninth series from Spin Master Entertainment and follows on the success of PAW Patrol (دورية المخلب). The new series is overseen by executive producers Ronnen Harary and Laura Clunie.

What does Nickelodeon Think of KIDS IN MOTION?

Interview with Fadi Maurice Sabbagh, Senior Director VIMN Consumer Products Middle East & Africa, Viacom International Media Networks


1. What are the main reasons for you to participate in Kids In Motion 2018?
KIM proved to be one of the most successful events in Saudi Arabia attracting families from all the kingdom plus Saudi kids have a solid foundation and awareness on the Nickelodeon brand from which to build skills and equip them to succeed in the future.

2. What are you precisely looking forward to at this happening in particular?
Being one of the leading family entertainment brand and company in the world, we want to connect directly with our fans and their families giving them the unique opportunity to live the brand experience, looking forward for an exciting engagement with families and kids in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

3. Tell us more about the brand you are participating with in Kids In Motion and how would you expect the reaction of the Saudi audience to be with your brand?
Nickelodeon is a safe place for families, we develop high quality, innovative and unique experiences by leveraging the power of our brand. The relationship consumers have with our brand is valuable and edutainment.

4. For the past 4 editions we noticed that Nickelodeon has always been part of the stage with Ninja Turtles, SpongeBob, Dora The Explorer and this year with Paw Patrol which shows that you are giving a special attention to the Saudi Audience. In what ways and why?
Nickelodeon has a very strong presence in KSA specially as a channel on pay TV and is amongst OSN’s top performing channels on the platform which has the highest numbers of subscribers and not to forget the “Free to Air” Nickelodeon block on MBC3 which is reaching millions of kids in the MENA region.


5. How do you evaluate the Nickelodeon's partnership in terms of licensing with EventBox, knowing it had won The Best Performance award in 2017?
Event Box is simply not a regular event management licensee, based on our business experience EB is a solid partner for so many years to come. Winning the Best Performance Award in 2017 is a proof of the strong partnership with Viacom.

6. And in the licensing sector in general?
Our history started in the late 90’s where we started licensing our first hits Rugrats and Blues Clues. Soon afterwards the global launch of our evergreen beloved hits, Dora the explorer and SpongeBob rapidly grew our business, leaving a remarkable Nickelodeon footprint in the licensing environment in the last couple of years.

Thanks to our strong partnership with MBC group and MBC3 in particular as the strongest local “Free To Air” TV channel for kids in the Middle East which helped us to drove our Consumer Products business to a different level.

Today we are at the tremendous success of Paw Patrol as the number one preschool property followed by new hits such as Blaze and Shimmer & Shine.
Our strong property The Turtles “TMNT” is still holding a strong position in the older boys age group and the loveable Jojo Siwa in the tween world.

7. We see Nickelodeon present on different panels: entertainment in shopping malls, stage shows, TV, consumer products ….) - What are the future plans for Nickelodeon in the region? Are you looking for more expansion?
Seeing the latest progress from Viacom in these fields, I can say it’s just the beginning for a successful plans in the MENA region.

8. Finally, how do you think that the new strategy of the GEA will affect Nickelodeon’s brands and live shows in particular?
There is no better time in the Kingdom for our brand and engagement with our fans and audience as of now, this is all of the great vision of GEA to bring the best of contents to kids and families. Our properties focus on education & entertainment which makes it appealing to all family members.
