‘Henry Danger’: See Baby Ariel as Patina in 'The Great Cactus Con' | Sneak Peek | Nickelodeon
Baby Ariel is guest-starring on the all-new episode of Nickelodeon's hit live-action comedy series Henry Danger, and to celebrate, HollywoodLife has unveiled a super preview of her appearance! Her character, Patina, is finally able to leave the house, thanks to Kid Danger!
Patina’s finally here! In the fantastic preview of the episode, Henry (Jace Norman), dressed as Kid Danger, walks up to Patina (Ariel Martin, a.k.a. Baby Ariel) to meet her for the “first time.” Patina is so excited to be out of the house. “This suit is amazing,” she tells Kid Danger. “Thank you so much.” She’s wearing a suit to protect herself from air, since she’s allergic to it.
Patina, who is Jasper’s crush, asks Henry why he owes Jasper (Sean Ryan Fox) a favor. Henry knows that’s not the case — it was the other way around! He pins the question on Jasper, who just shrugs: “I don’t know!” Jasper quickly changes the subject and asks Patina to go win him a prize at the Cactus Ring Toss. “Okay, I’ll try!” Patina says, before adorably locking arms with Jasper!
The upcoming episode of Henry Danger is titled “The Great Cactus Con” and will premiere Nov. 24 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Nickelodeon USA. In this episode, Jasper gets the chance to take his crush to Cactus Con, but when a mysterious villain gets involved in the convention the entire gang is forced into action!

Official Nickelodeon USA Press Release:
BURBANK, Calif.--Nov. 12, 2018--Kel Mitchell (Game Shakers) and Kenan Thompson (Saturday Night Live) reunite to compete against one another in a one-hour special episode of Nickelodeon’s iconic game show Double Dare, premiering Wednesday, Nov. 21, at 8:00 pm (ET/PT). Hosted by actress and digital creator Liza Koshy with original Double Dare host Marc Summers providing color commentary, the special will also guest star All That actress and comedian Lori Beth Denberg.
Paired with super fans, Team Kenan and Team Kel tackle some All That-themed trivia questions and compete in a variety of messy physical challenges that include nods to Nickelodeon classics Good Burger and Kenan & Kel. The winning team will then run an epic eight-piece Double Dare obstacle course for the grand prize. After the winners have been crowned, Kenan and Kel run the obstacle course together, in an attempt to win money for their favorite charities.
Double Dare premiered on Oct. 6, 1986, on Nickelodeon, and ran from 1986-1993, making it the network’s longest-running game show. Marc Summers served as the show’s original host from 1986-1993.

The series went into syndication in 1988 and later revived as Super Sloppy Double Dare in 1989.

Kenan & Kel Take on the Double Dare Obstacle Course | Nick
Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell are going head-to-head on Double Dare! Liza Koshy hosts the epic 90s Nickelodeon showdown featuring special guest All That cast member, Lori Beth Denberg. Who do you think is gonna win? Kenan or Kel? Let me know in the comments below! And catch this hour-long celebrity edition of Double Dare November 21st at 8p/7c on Nickelodeon!
Update (11/19): Kenan Thompson revealed during Saturday's (November 19, 2018) brand-new episode of Saturday Night Live that he would love to work on Kenan & Kel again!
It all began with a audience member asking episode host Steve Carell the simple question: “Will you ever reboot The Office?" The host said no, so SNL cast member Kenan Thompson stood up and framed it as more of a suggestion. Carell explained that reprising his role as the lunatic Dunder Mifflin Paper Company manager would be like Thompson returning full-time to the Nickelodeon sitcom Kenan & Kel, on which he starred with Kel Mitchell from 1996 through 2000.
“That would be an honour,” Thompson solemnly replied.
One by one, former Office cast members popped up from their seats in the audience. “I need that money,” said Ellie Kemper, who played secretary Erin Hannon on the show. “Let’s get that money, Steve.” When he declined, the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt actress yelled, “You’re a jerk!”
Ed Helms, who played Dunder Mifflin salesman Andy Bernard, also argued in favour of a reboot. Maybe Carell didn’t understand just how much money it would make them. “You wouldn’t have to do all those sad movies anymore,” Helms said, referring to Carell’s recent roles, such as a panicked father in Beautiful Boy.
Would you like to see a Kenan & Kel revival? Let me know in the comments below! AWWWW HERE IT GOES!!

Hasbro Sees "Significant Opportunity for Power Rangers"
Hasbro’s Simon Waters reveals what the future holds for the iconic Power Rangers brand.
Launched by creator Haim Saban in 1993, Power Rangers is one of the most-watched children’s television programmes in the US and remains one of the longest running live action kids’ series in television history. The series and subsequent movies, including 2017’s feature film with Lionsgate, follows the adventures of a group of ordinary teens who morph into superheroes to save the world from evil.
The TV show now airs in more than 150 markets around the world and is translated into numerous languages. In January, Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel – the 25th season – premiered on Nickelodeon in the US and began debuting across UK/EMEA in April. The show's 26th season, Power Rangers Beast Morphers, is set to debut on Nickelodeon USA in early 2019.
In February 2018, Hasbro announced that it had entered into a licensing agreement with Saban to become the master toy licensee for Power Rangers effective April 1, 2019, but the deal quickly evolved as Simon Waters, senior vice president and general manager of the Power Rangers franchise explains to Licensing Source: “Shortly after entering into our licensing arrangement, it became clear that now was the time to begin investing in unlocking Power Rangers’ full potential.
“We see significant opportunity for Power Rangers across our entire brand blueprint, including toys and games, consumer products, digital gaming and entertainment, as well as geographically throughout our global retail footprint.”
Haim Saban will continue in a consulting role as Hasbro recognises how important it is to honour the brand’s heritage. “It’s a fine line to walk, as we must continue to preserve the elements that remain at the heart of the brand and have found an evergreen resonance, while not missing opportunities to grow in exciting new directions,” says Simon.
The reaction to the Power Rangers acquisition has been overwhelmingly positive from the public, press and fan community. “Hasbro couldn’t be more proud to take on such an incredible and iconic brand,” says Simon.
“We saw an amazing reaction from fans at Power Morphicon [the biennial convention in Los Angeles over August 17-19] and were excited to see such tremendous fan engagement. It was a great experience at the convention, and we feel that we left fans with a huge sense of anticipation of all the great things yet to come from Hasbro.”
During Power Morphicon, Hasbro revealed its first-ever Power Rangers product – the Lightning Collection White Ranger Figure (pictured above), a highly-articulated 6-inch figure with high-level detailing and design. The figure, inspired by Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers season 2, will be released in spring 2019.
“In spring 2019, we will also release the first set of toys inspired by the 26th season – Power Rangers Beast Morphers,” says Simon. “Hasbro’s Power Rangers line will feature a range of products designed for fans of all ages, including preschool to adult collectors. Stay tuned for more updates.”
While Hasbro is taking time to assess where the gaps and white spaces are in the licensing programme, Simon sees a multitude of opportunities across a wide range in categories – both in physical product and live branded experiences; particularly in Latin America.
“For years, we have seen the Latin American audience respond favourably to our content. As part of the Hasbro family, the Power Rangers franchise is poised to make significant inroads into this market, leading with the most innovative toy line in the history of the franchise to pave the way for multi-category lifestyle statements that enable consumers to truly live the brand.”
Looking to 2019 and beyond, Hasbro has some big plans to deliver ‘always on’ content. “We definitely have an eye towards the future with big plans to deliver targeted content, in various formats for each of our key segments, as well as tentpole moments designed to have a multi-generational appeal. We know that our audience is consuming and creating content across a myriad of platforms and we intend to emPOWER their consumption of exciting new content,” says Simon.
25 years of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
It’s been a big year for Power Rangers as it celebrates 25 years since the launch of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series in 1993.
On August 28 (the same day the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series premiered in 1993), Nickelodeon USA premiered a special Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel episode to celebrate the anniversary. The episode included iconic Rangers from the past, including the original Green and White Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Hasbro and National Day Calendar also proclaimed August 28th as National Power Rangers Day.
Coinciding with the August anniversary, the Build-A-Bear Workshop revealed a brand new 25th anniversary branded Green Ranger bear that sports the 25th anniversary logo (pictured above).
And Shout! Factory commemorated the 25th anniversary with a collector’s edition steelbook complete series box set, which gathers all 155 original episodes out on Blu-ray for the very first time ever.

Dark Horse Comics Announces 'Avatar: The Last Airbender - Imbalance Part Two'
Dark Horse Comics have announced the second part of their hit three part Avatar: The Last Airbender graphic novel series, "Imbalance", the official continuation of Airbender from its creators, Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko!
Avatar: The Last Airbender — Imbalance finds Aang, Katara, Sokka, and Toph dealing with a conflict between benders and non-benders in a booming industrial town. Perhaps the story will explore connective tissue between the end of Avatar and sequel series Legend of Korra, which featured a much more industrial world and began with high tensions between benders and non-benders.
In Avatar: The Last Airbender - Imbalance Part One, set to be released on Tuesday, December 18th, when Aang, Katara, Sokka, and Toph return to Earthen Fire Industries--the factory owned by Toph's father--Team Avatar finds that the once small town is now booming. Expecting a warm welcome, Aang is surprised when their arrival is met with unimpressed, cold-shouldered spectators. As soon as the team is asked for help at a business council meeting, the reason for the slight becomes clear--a massive bender versus non-bender conflict has gripped the town and is threatening to turn violent.

In Avatar: The Last Airbender - Imbalance Part Two, slated to be released on Tuesday, April 16, 2019, Aang and Team Avatar race to resolve rising tensions between benders and non-benders before a town is torn apart! There's something fishy going on in Cranefish Town, and it's up to Aang, Katara, Sokka, and Toph to find out what, before the simmering conflict between benders and non-benders boils over into all-out war. But danger lurks where they least expect it, and uncovering the truth will reveal a threat unlike any they've ever faced--and a fateful choice for Aang he can never unmake! The issue has a SRP of $10.99. (TP; DEC180407; Final Orders Due: Jan 07, 2019)
A release date for the concluding part of the story, Avatar: The Last Airbender - Imbalance Part Three is still to be announced.
Avatar: The Last Airbender — Imbalance features the debut of writer Faith Erin Hicks (The Nameless City) and artist Peter Wartman, who are taking the reins from longtime Avatar comics writer Gene Luen Yang (American Born Chinese). Like Yang, Hicks and Wartman will be working in collaboration with Avatar: The Last Airbender creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko.

Cousins For Life | 'Movin’ In' Sneak Peek + Promo | New Show | Nickelodeon
Nickelodeon USA will be treating fans to a super first-look at the network's brand-new live-action comedy series Cousins For Life on Saturday, November 24 at 8:30pm ET/PT, and to celebrate, Nick has unveiled a awesome sneak-peek of the first episode of their all-new show, "Movin’ In", which you can watch in the fantastic video below!:
Cousins For Life centers on 12-year-old cousins Stuart (Dallas Young) and Ivy (Scarlet Spencer), best friends who come from very different backgrounds, who have to learn to navigate life under one roof with their families.
After Stuart’s mom is deployed overseas, his fun-loving dad Clark (Ishmel Sahid) decides to move the family to Portland to live with his uptight brother Lewis (Ron G.) and his family, which includes Stuart’s confident, socially active cousin Ivy and her younger, overly-curious brother Leaf (Micah Abbey). Now living in a brand new city, Stuart embarks on a variety of endeavors with Ivy that lead to hilarious adventures.
Although the cousins do not always see eye-to-eye, Ivy and Stuart learn they are better together, and when they team up, they are unstoppable. The series will also feature Emma Shannon (Black-ish) as Millie.
In the series premiere, "Movin’ In" (#101), when cousins Ivy and Stuart find themselves living under the same roof they learn that they are better together, and when they team up, they are unstoppable! In Nick's super sneak-peek, Lewis, Ivy and Leaf prepare for the arrival of Clark and Stuart!
Cousins For Life was filmed at The Burbank Studios in Burbank, California - the same studio facility where Henry Danger is filmed, as where many iconic TV shows have been filmed, including Saved by the Bell and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air - earlier this summer.
Greenlit for an initial 20 episodes, Cousins For Life comes from veteran creators and executive producers Kevin Kopelow and Heath Seifert (Austin & Ally, All That).
Update (11/21): To celebrate the sneak-peek of Cousins For Life, Nick.com has unveiled the network's official Cousins For Life show website, which features information about the series and a super sneak-peek!
Are you looking forward to Cousins For Life? Let me know in the comments!

Pia Miller Joins Cast of Paramount’s Live-Action ‘Dora the Explorer’ Movie
Australian actor Pia Miller has closed a deal to join Paramount Players' live-action feature based Nickelodeon's beloved preschool series Dora the Explorer! Pia, best known for portraying Katarina Chapman in the hit Australian soap opera Home and Away, will portray Dora's aunt Mami in the movie, which has already finished filming on the Gold Coast of Australia.
Dora the Explorer will tell the story of Dora, a girl who has spent most of her life exploring the jungle with her parents, but now must navigate her most dangerous adventure yet: high school. Always the explorer, Dora quickly finds herself leading Boots (her best friend, a monkey), Diego, and a rag tag group of teens on a live-action adventure to save her parents and solve the impossible mystery behind a lost Inca civilization.
Miller joins Isabela Moner (100 Things to Do Before High School, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Transformers: The Last Knight, Sicario: Day of the Soldado, Instant Family), who portrays the teen adventurer; Eva Longoria (Desperate Housewives, Overboard) and Michael Peña, who play the parents of the titular character; Eugenio Derbez (Overboard, Instructions Not Included; How to Be A Latin Lover), who plays Alejandro, a mysterious jungle inhabitant who tries to protect the teenagers from the marauders; Jeffrey Wahlberg (Future World, Ballers, Counterpart, Reefa) in the role of cousin Diego; Nicholas Coombe (Spy Kids: Mission Control, Midnight Sun) as Randy, a fellow high schooler who develops an immediate crush on Dora; Madeleine Madden (Picnic at Hanging Rock, Tidelands) as the school’s snooty class president, Sammy; and Academy Award nominee Adriana Barraza (Babel, Amores Perros, Thor, The 33) as Dora’s grandma, Abuelita Valerie; Temuera Morrison (Green Lantern, Moana), who will play the role of Powell; Q’orianka Kilcher (The Alienist), will play Inca Princess Kawillaka; and Madelyn Miranda, who portrays Young Dora.
Prior to Home & Away, Logie nominee Miller, 35, starred in the movie Big Mamma's Boy, as well as parts in TV series such as East West 101, Neighbours, Wonderland, and Bite Club, in which she garnered great acclaim, and in the short, The Deal. Miller also portrayed her Home and Away character in An Eye for an Eye, a TV movie inspired by the soap. Dora the Explorer is Miller's first Hollywood role.
Update (11/21): “(I) can confirm Pia Miller as Diego’s mother in the film. Diego was played by Jeffrey Wahlberg,” a production spokesman said yesterday.
Pia is a mum to two boys, Isaiah, 16, and Lennox, 12, who she shares with her ex, former football player Brad Miller, 35.
As well as her acting and parenting skills, the mum-of-two is known for being outspoken in matters she is passionate about. Pia has previously opened up about body confidence and admitted she too has insecurities about her body.
Dora the Explorer is produced by Christopher Robin producer Kristin Burr, who is joined by longtime Bobin associate, executive producer John G. Scotti (The Muppets, Muppets Most Wanted, Alice Through the Looking Glass) as well as executive producers Julia Pistor (The Spiderwick Chronicles, A Series of Unfortunate Events) and Eugenio Derbez.
Bobin has assembled a talented team behind the camera that also includes reunions with Oscar®-winning production designer Dan Hennah (Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, Alice Through the Looking Glass) and costume designer Rahel Afiley (The Muppets, Muppets Most Wanted, Flight of the Conchords). The pair will be joined by six-time Goya Award winning (and BAFTA nominated) cinematographer Javier Aguirresarobe, A.S.C. (Secretos del corazón, The Others, Blue Jasmine, Thor: Ragnarok), film editor Mark Everson (Paddington, Paddington 2) and BAFTA-nominated VFX supervisor Andy Brown (Black Panther, House of Flying Daggers, Moulin Rouge!)
Dora the Explorer recently wrapped filming in Australia’s Gold Coast, in the state of Queensland on the continent’s east coast south of Brisbane. Village Roadshow Studios, where the production is headquartered, has been host to several major Hollywood movies in the last few years, including The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Shallows, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Marvel’s Thor: Ragnarok and, most recently, DC’s Aquaman. In addition to designer Hennah’s stage builds, the production is utilizing Queensland’s diverse landscape, notably tropical forests near Tamborine Mountain and Tallebudgera, to portray Dora’s jungle habitat.
Dora the Explorer is a Paramount Players and Nickelodeon production in association with Walden Media. The film is being supported by the Queensland Government via Screenland Queensland. Paramount will release the film on August 2, 2019.
