Decade In Dogs - Nickelodeon and SPin Master Prep BIG PARTY to Ring In PAW Patrol's 10th Anniversary

"HOW DID WE LAST 10 YEARS!!! >:(" - Ron Pardo

 2023 marks the 10th Years Anniversary of Nick Jr's third successful never-ending cash cow franchise PAW PAATROL created in 2013 by Keith Chapman (Bob the Builder, Rubbadubbers, Fifi and the Flowertots, Roary the Racing Car, Raa Raa the Noisy Lion, The Mighty Trains Express) and developed by Scott Kroft (The Fresh Beat Band, Top Wing). And to celebrate the decade of talking rescue dogs doing clickbaited community service duties, Nickelodeon and Spin Master have pplanned some huge content material to look back on how far their program has come.

The show, currently weighing in at reaching 10 seasons, 260 episodes, three videogames, two broadway musicals, an upcoming spinoff and two theatrical feature length films racking up $150 million dollars under their doghouses, the series follows a 10-year-old boy named Ryder and his team of talking rescue dogs - Chase, Marshall, Rubble, Skye, Rocky, Zuma, Everest, Tracker, Ella, Tuck, Rex and Al as well a "CAT PACK" of Wildcat the Cheetah, Rory the Lion, Shade the Jaguar and Leo the Tiger (which makes no sense because its supposed to be DOGS, NOT CATS) as they venture on all these rescue missions that are actually just everyday people doing everyday things and have ZERO RELATIONSHIP to the community service theme at all whatsoever, while all the way proving the inevitable slogan of "No job is TOO BIG, no dogs are TOO SMALL."

Some of these which is just being lazy and having a waste of everybody's time include as follows-but not limited to-competing in a big race, joining the western music hoedown, getting your kids to school or the dentist on time, rocking out at a big concert and competing in some game show which looks like some hillbilly version of Match Game or Hollywood Squares.

Pardo's stupid evil Humdinger character may have FINALLY gotten sent to jail for his crimes (the moment every PAW fan has been waiting for) in the finale of the theatricl movie in August of last year, But there's still LOADS MORE PAW Patrol content in the works where that came from. In the words of Billy Mays "BUT THEY ARE NOT DONE YET!".

TO commenorate the 10th Anniversary milestone, Nick and Spin Master are currently in the works on a new batch of hour-long specials . It is currently unknown what these specials are but there are some speculations that there will be some sort of cast reunion with all the other voice actors and get a glimpse of what the show's original voice actors sound like voicing their characters as adults or maybe a Nickelodeon, oggin SVOD and Paramount+ simulcate of the second  PAW live show musical "The Great Pirates Adventure" with the bad guy (DUH) played once again by Pittsburgh native Matthew Lamb. Another possibility is a marathon of 10 new half-hour PAW episodes back to back or a countdown of the top 100 episodes of the series ending with the cable network television premiere of The PAW Patrol Movie which released on Paramount+ and in theaters on August 20th, 2021.

Also in the works is a new digital app videogame for the series titled PAW Patrol and Friends produced by Spin Master Entertainment's Originator Interactive label. And the title of Rubble's first PAW spinoff is FINALLY REVEALED. The food-digesting construction bulldog will get his own separate spotlight with Rubble & Crew announced at Nick's Annual Upfront held at the Crossroads of the World Times Square in New York City, NY which will premiere probably around August 2023.

The main series' unstoppable milestone 10th season is currently in post production with plans to air the first episode of the 10th Anniversary season in late March or early April of next year. Meanwhile the franchise's second theatrical movie rehashing the "Mighty Pups" arc used in Seasons 5-7 from November 2018, the first hour-long movie will release in theaters on October Friday The 13th, 2023 with plans to possibly air on Nick cable and Paramount+ SVOD in Spring 2024.

As Pardo Humdinger would rant "Why dfo all they EVER CARE ABOUT is those PAW Patrol dogs?!" Well let's answer him by giving Ron and all the team on the show a massive earraping round of applause gratitude for creating not only one of the best Nick Jr. shows of the last 35 years, but also the top-rated and most-watched preschool show EVER in modern day.
