The Fish Apocalypse Continues - Nickelodeon Greenlights Baby Shark 2nd Season & Movie

 Baby Shark will never die!

Over the past seven months, Pinkfong Baby Shark has been doing so well in the entertainment business, that Nickelodeon and Pinkfong have confirmed that a second season of 26 half-hour episodes and a feature-length movie is currently in the works.

In the second season, the 8 billion views shark and his pal William with a design being a Breadwinners ripoff go on more crazy adventures through their underwater world of Carnivore Cove while singing original catchy songs along the way (THEY LIED: They continue using the same formula of scatting in almost EVERY song they make) making fresh new fish friends and killing villains and emenies all while with their friends and shark family and teaching about diversity and inclusion

New episodes of the first season will continue to drop in part (15-minute story A or B) or in full (both segments together) Fridays at 12:30PMET/11:30c. Blue's Clues & You! and Santiago of the Seas will also occasionally steal PAW Patrol's timeslot of Fridays at 12PM throughout the summer. PAW will get its timeslot back on July 23rd.

The news comes as the series recently got nominated in ViacomCBS' 2021 48th annual Daytime Creative Arts Emmys® Awards.

Baby Shark's Big Show! is the second of five preschool series based on YouTube channels. Nick Jr. USA is also home to Ryan's World Mystery Playdate (Command Center) and The Tiny Chef Show dropping next year, while the Australia localization is home to CKN Toys' Calvin & Kaison's Play Power. The next YouTube into TV venture in the preschool market is Lucas the Spider adapted for television by none other than Blue's Clues creator and "queen of preschool television" Angela C. Santomero which is slated to spin its webs on the new Cartoonito programming block on Cartoon Network dropping in October.
