From El Intransigente América News:

Qué nostalgia! Anuncian reunión del elenco de popular serie mexicana de Nickelodeon

La pandemia ha provocado un aumento en las reuniones digitales de elencos de series ya finalizadas.

MÉXICO. Si bien la pandemia ha provocado que muchos eventos tengan que cancelarse, también ha provocado que se den nuevas oportunidades. Elencos de series que finalizaron en el pasado han estado reuniéndose vía digital para contar a los fans historias de estas producciones, las cuales han tenido muy buena recepción por el público. Y ahora es el turno de una de las series de Nickelodeon.

Skimo fue la primera comedia hecha en México producida para Nickelodeon, cadena de origen estadounidense. Esta relataba la historia de Fito y Tavo, dos jóvenes que decidieron abrir su propio negocio, al que llamaron Skimo,. Y la serie narró todas las dificultades que tenían que atravesar para poder mantenerlo a flote. Constantemente aparecían estrellas invitadas mexicanas, como RBD, Kalimba, la Chilindrina y muchos más.

Ahora, a través de su cuenta de Instagram, el actor mexicano Daniel Tovar, quien interpretaba a Fito, anunció la reunión con Miguel Santa Rita, quien trajo a la vida a Tavo. Esta tendrá lugar este 22 de agosto del año en curso a las 6:30 de la tarde en horario de la Ciudad de México. Y entre los temas que se tocarán, estarán no sólo anécdotas de Skimo, sino también sobre la producción teatral en la cual están trabajando los actores.


¡Justo en la infancia!
«Oigaaaaaaaaaan, mañana a las 6:30 vamos a hacer un live (aquí en ig) @santaritamm y yo para platicarles de Skimo, de cuándo se fue a Aguascalientes, y de la obra que vamos a hacer el -5 DE SEPTIEMBRE #PARASITOS- Y nada pues nos vemos mañana», escribió Daniel Tovar junto a una fotografía donde él y Miguel Santa Rita aparecen caracterizados como Fito y Tavo.

La noticia fue recibida con mucha emoción por los fanáticos de esta entrañable serie, la cual contó con 4 temporadas y un total de 52 capítulos. «Sisisisisisisisisisiiiiii!!!! Mi infancia», escribió una internauta. «Naaaa maaaamaaaaas la amaba 🥺🥺 woooooooo mis memorias vuelven… un sueño que empezó como un pequeño juego, se conocieron en el patio de recreo hablando de cómics y juegos de video», apuntó otra.

‘SpongeBob SquarePants’ Spinoff ‘The Patrick Star Show’ Reportedly in the Works at Nickelodeon

The Patrick Star Show, a SpongeBob SquarePants animated spinoff starring SpongeBob’s best friend, Patrick, is in the works at Nickelodeon!


Update (8/22) - ViacomCBS has confirmed plans for The Patrick Star Show, and has applied to patent the show 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.

On the new series, the pink starfish will continued to be voiced by the character’s longtime SpongeBob voice actor Bill Fagerbakke, a person with knowledge of the situation told TheWrap.

Deadline has learnt that Nickelodeon is currently finalizing deals for The Patrick Star Show, and that voiceover recordings already have started for the project, which is expected to receive a 13-episode order and comes from the creative team behind the mothership series.

According to sources, The Patrick Star Show is in the vein of The Larry Sanders Show and Comedy Bang! Bang!, with superstar sea star saviour Patrick (Fagerbakke) hosting his own late-night talk show. Deadline hears the series would revolve around Patrick and his family. Fagerbakke is being joined by a largely new cast voicing new characters, with SpongeBob cast members expected to make occasional appearances, reprising their respective roles.


In early 2019, Nickelodeon president Brian Robbins announced that the network would be developing its first spinoff projects with SpongeBob SquarePants characters, and was exploring, among other options, “an original story about SpongeBob and Patrick, or a Sandy Cheeks stand-alone story.”

“That’s our Marvel Universe,” said Nickelodeon president Brian Robbins at the time. “You have this amazing show that’s run for almost twenty years.”

Reps for Nickelodeon declined to comment Monday.

It's currently unknown whether The Patrick Star Show will be produced in 2D animation or CGI.

The project is not the only upcoming SpongeBob offshoot series, joining the previously announced prequel Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years. That show — which recently moved from Nickelodeon to CBS All Access, where it will debut next year as part of the rebranded service — will see a 10-year-old SpongeBob during his summer at the eponymous camp. In the series, SpongeBob and his pals spend the summer building underwater campfires, catching wild jellyfish and swimming in Lake Yuckymuck at the craziest camp in the kelp forest, Kamp Koral.

The Patrick Star Show joins other animated projects coming to Nickelodeon, including the Real Pigeons Fight Crime adaptation executive produced by James Corden and Ben Winston and Middlemost Post from John Trabbic III, another Spongebob vet.

Since its launch July 17, 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has reigned as the number-one kids’ animated series on TV for the last 17 years, while generating a universe of beloved characters, pop culture catchphrases and memes, theatrical releases, consumer products, a Tony award-winning Broadway musical and a global fan base. Created by the late animator and marine biology teacher, Stephen Hillenburg, the cartoon’s massive popularity has led to two feature films, 2004’s The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie and its 2015 sequel, "Sponge Out of Water", as well as a Broadway musical. A third SpongeBob SquarePants movie, Sponge on the Run, is set to debut digitally in the U.S via premium video on demand in early 2021 and then move exclusively to CBS All Access, ViacomCBS’ subscription video on demand (SVOD) and live-streaming service, following the premium video-on-demand window. Outside North America, the movie will debut on Netflix.

Fagerbakke is probably best known for playing Dauber on ABC’s Coach for nine years; he also was involved in its scrapped 2015 reboot series for NBC. The veteran actor played Jason Segal’s dad on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother and recurred on Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here and Netflix’s Unbelievable. He is repped by Main Title Entertainment.
