It's a new season of NFL Slimetime, and kicking things off, SpongeBob SquarePants' very own Sandy Cheeks has announced Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones as the first Nickelodeon Valuable Player (NVP) of NFL Slimetime season five! This is Daniel's second NVP win, following the QB winning the title for Week 19 during season two for his performance during the 2022 Wild Card Weekend!
Instead of being slimed himself, Jones teamed up with former NVP Jonathan Taylor to cover a menace who has been on a pie-ing rampage throughout Colts offices for a while now: Blue. The 3x NFL Mascot of the Year was like many-a-defender, caught unaware as Taylor got Blue’s attention on him, enabling Jones to surprise with a jar of slime from above.
Jones earned this award from a strong Week 1 performance in his Colts debut:
22/29 Passes Completed (75.9%)
272 Passing Yards
1 Passing TD
7 Carries
26 Rushing Yards
2 Rushing TDs
The NVP has been awarded weekly since the 2021 season on Nickelodeon’s NFL Slimetime show, and this marks the 6th time an Indianapolis Colt has been named NVP:
Jonathan Taylor Week 11, 2021 for his 204 yard and 5 TD game vs the Bills
Jonathan Taylor Week 10, 2022 for his 163 yard and 3 TD game vs the Raiders
Gardner Minshew Week 13, 2023 for his 312 passing yard and 2 TD game in an overtime win vs the Titans
Gardner Minshew Pro Bowl 2023 named NVP of NVPs for the 2023 season
Jonathan Taylor Week 16, 2024 for his 218 yard and 3 TD game vs the Titans
Jones himself previously won the NVP award in the 2022 Wildcard Round for his 24/35 (68.6%) Passing, 301 Pass Yards, 2 Pass TD, 78 Rush Yards performance in his first career playoff win against the Minnesota Vikings. He joins Derrick Henry as the only individual player who has won the award on two different teams.

Ariel Winter (Modern Family, Sofia the First) joins returning cast members Kira Kosarin as Phoebe Thunderman, Jack Griffo as Max Thunderman, Maya Le Clark as Chloe Thunderman, Addison Riecke as Nora Thunderman, Diego Velazquez as Billy Thunderman, Chris Tallman as Hank Thunderman and Rosa Blasi as Barb Thunderman. Winter will play Cognita.
In Clash of the Thundermans, when Chloe develops a destructive new superpower, the Hero League orders her to an elite boarding school for superheroes to learn control of her abilities. Faced with the prospect of sending Chloe away for years, the Thundermans split apart, with Phoebe, Barb and Billy taking her into hiding. Max, Hank, and Nora track their rogue family members, until the two factions face off against each other in a full-on battle for the Thundermans’ future.
The Thundermans premiered on Nickelodeon in October 2013 and wrapped its four-season run in 2018, ranking as the number-one series across all TV among Kids 2-11 and Kids 6-11. Created and executive produced by three-time Emmy Award-winner Jed Spingarn, the scripted half-hour series follows superhero twins with opposite personalities, Phoebe and Max Thunderman, as they navigate their way through school, friends and a family of extraordinary superheroes, all while keeping their true identities a secret. The show has seen a resurgence following its 4Q21 launch on streaming, where it quickly became the top title across all SVOD among Kids 6-11; and has continued to rank among the top titles with Kids 6-11.
The Thundermans Return movie premiered last year to stellar ratings, ranking as the number-one entertainment telecast for the year to date in Live+3 across all cable among Kids 6-11. It reached 1.6 million Total Viewers throughout its premiere weekend across airings on Nickelodeon and Nick At Nite (4 telecasts). The Thundermans Return follows twins Phoebe and Max who are enjoying their superhero lifestyle in a new city, but when one ‘save’ goes awry, the Thundermans are sent back to Hiddenville.
Building on the success of The Thundermans Return, Nickelodeon ordered spin-off series The Thundermans: Undercover, which debuted earlier this year. The spinoff series follows Phoebe and Max, who are sent undercover to handle a new threat in the seaside town of Secret Shores and bring Chloe along to develop her superhero talent. The show also stars Daran Norris as “Thunderford,” as well as new cast members Kinley Cunningham as “Booch” and Nathan Broxton as “Jinx.”
The Thundermans, The Thundermans Return and The Thundermans: Undercover also features Dana Snyder as the voice of “Dr. Colosso”.
Jed Spingarn, Sean W. Cunningham and Marc Dworkin (The Thundermans Return, The Thundermans: Undercover) return to write and executive produce the movie. Kosarin and Griffo also executive produce, along with Richard Bullock. Trevor Kirschner directs and serves as co-executive producer.
