Nickelodeon Cancels 'The Casagrandes'

Nickelodeon has reportedly canceled the network's hit animated series The Casagrandes after three seasons despite rave reviews and loyal followings. The series follows the dynamics of a multi-generational Latino family that lives under one roof.


The third and final season of The Casagrandes is slated to air on Nickelodeon this year. Althgough the series isn't being renewed for a fourth season, characters from The Casagrandes will continue to appear on The Loud House, the show it was spun-off from, a network spokesperson told Axios.

The show debuted in 2019 and will air a total of 60 episodes by the end of its run.

The Casagrandes centers on Ronnie Anne Santiago (Izabella Alvarez), who moved to Great Lakes City with her brother Bobby (Carlos PenaVega) and her mother Maria (Sumalee Montano). She is now living near her extended family, including her grandparents Hector (Ruben Garfias) and Rosa (Sonia Manzano), her aunt Frida (Roxana Ortega) and uncle Carlos (Carlos Alazraqui), and her cousins Carlota, C.J., Carl, and Carlitos. Rubiner is executive producer and Puga serves as co-executive producer. Award-winning cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz is a consulting producer.

The Casagrandes stars Izabella Alvarez (Westworld) as 11-year-old Ronnie Annie, Carlos PenaVega (Big Time Rush) as her brother Bobby and Sumalee Montano (Nashville) as her mom Maria. Alvarez, PenaVega and Montano bring these characters to life, alongside: Carlos Alazraqui (Rocko's Modern Life, The Fairly OddParents, Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years) as Carlos, “Tio;” Roxana Ortega (The League) as Frida, “Tia;” Alexa PenaVega (Spy Kids) as Carlota; Jared Kozak (Born this Way) as CJ; Alex Cazares (The Boss Baby: Back in Business) as Carl; Ruben Garfias (East Los High) as Hector, “Abuelo;” and Sonia Manzano (Sesame Street) as Rosa, “Abuela.” Additionally, Eugenio Derbez (Dora and the Lost City of Gold) gives voice to Dr. Santiago, a physician living and working in Peru, who is Ronnie Anne and Bobby’s father.

Ronnie Anne’s new apartment building holds new friends and neighbors, including: Ken Jeong (Dr. Ken) as Stanley Chang; Melissa Joan Hart (Clarissa Explains It All, Sabrina the Teenage Witch) as Becca Chang; Leah Mei Gold (Legion) as 12-year-old Sid Chang, Ronnie Anne’s new friend; and Lexi Sexton as Adelaide Chang, Sid’s 6-year-old little sister.

The Casagrandes launched on Nickelodeon in October 2019. The show was nominated for Outstanding Children's Animated Series and won Outstanding Main Title for an Animated Program at the 2020 Daytime Emmy Awards. Ronnie Anne and her family were introduced in The Loud House. Both series have been translated into successful graphic novel and podcast series. The Loud House and The Casagrandes are available to stream on Paramount+.

The Marvel of Produce Is No Match for Kid-approved Superheros
Chase, Marshall and Skye


Belding, Michigan – BelleHarvest, a grower-owned distributor of fresh apples in Michigan is prepared to take on the Marvel of Produce as an exhibitor at Southeast Produce Council’s Southern Exposure conference and expo, March 3-5, 2022 in Orlando, Florida.

Showcasing their retail programs, BelleHarvest will have all PAWS on deck in booth 208, exhibiting their PAW Patrol packaging in partnership with Nickelodeon. BelleHarvest’s PAW Patrol branded apple pouches are packed with three kid-approved varieties – Gotta Fly Gala, Heroic Honeycrisp and Fired Up Fuji. Perfect for pups on the go!

“Our PAW Patrol program delivers the spirit of superhero marvel with each and every apple,” shared BelleHarvest CEO, Milt Fuehrer. “We look forward to showcasing these packages and discussing the program with retail attendees.”

In addition to the PAW Patrol program, BelleHarvest also will showcase their Sustainable Packaging program. Built of paperboard, this unique packaging is 100 percent recyclable, a packaging hero among single-use mortals. The paperboard carton effectively prevents apples from bruising or shuffling, providing a dense layer of protection.


The gable handle on the carton allows for quick grab and go accessibility, which is increasingly important to consumers who want to quickly get in and out of the store.

“Our retail programs are the heroes of our story this March,” shared BelleHarvest Vice President of Sales, Chuck Yow. “In the fight against unhealthy snacks and single-use plastic packaging, we feel we’ve got the one-two punch up our sleeve with Paw Patrol and Sustainable Packaging"
