Continuing their run of releasing never-before-seen content that has been lost in the archives for a while now, in continuation of their 30th anniversary campaign, next up on the agenda, is the LOST Spanish adaptation of the group which ran from 2006-2007.
The short-lived Espanol Wiggles consisted of veteran Wiggles contributor Fermandito Moguel Jr. the lead singer in the yellow shirt (contributed to four videos of the band Hoop Dee Doo It's A Wiggly Party 2001, Santa's Rockin' and Cold Spaghetti Western 2004 and You Make Me Feel Like Dancing 2008), Fransisco Mein in the red shirt on the guitar, Katty Villafuetta falling asleep in the purple shirt and being screamed at pm tje cpimt pf 3 playin the keyboards/accordion and Zoe Velez snacking up fruit salad and keeping the beat on the drums.
As of recent, not much content of the Spanish dub has been available. Only five animations made by Plastic Wax Animation have appeared during the band's Season 5 of their TV series and a live-action video showcased on the Hot Potatoes: The Best of The Wiggles 2010 DVD.
According to Anthony, Zoe and Katty, full-length episodes/videos of the Spanish dub will FINALLY be unveiled to the band's YouTube channel which has recently hit 2m subscribers. Spanish-localized Wiggles content is expected to roll out on the band's channel beginning over the summer.

On This Day - The Baby Einstein Company Launched
"Hi I'm Julie Clark, Founder of the Baby Einstein Company. For more information about our developmental programs/products for babies and toddlers, visit our website at www.babyeinstein.com. Enjoy the show."
- Julie Aigner Clark, 2000
HAPPY 25TH ANNIVERSARY BABY EINSTEIN!
On this day, 25 YEARS AGO, Disney and Kids II Inc.'s The Baby Einstein Company LLC was first launched to the world. THe franchise originated in a series of episodes released on VHS "board books" that were meant to introduce children to the wonders of classical music, art and literature from 400 years ago.
It all began in the summer of 1996 to the winter of 1997 with the release of the first episode Baby Einstein: Language Nursery - Voices from Many Lands which was originally meant to introduce foreign languages. Since then, over 30 BE titles have been produced and the franchise has expanded into music soundtracks, books, discovery cards, toys, apparel, infant products and party supplies. The puppet characters in the episodes were also available to order for the comfort of your own home courtesy of Legends & Lore, Dakin/Applause, Folkmanis and PlaySoup.com.
The company was originally founded by the great Julie Aigner-Clark with her husband Bill Clark and Mark Burr serving as videographers, Bill Weisbach serving as music & sound design editors and Clive Smith and Tom Nazziola joining him as musicians remixing classical works with synthesizers. Aigner-Clark's own kids Aspen and Sierra have also appeared and contributed to the first 10 episodes among other children.
In 2002, Aigner-Clark resigned from the company after it was acquired by the Mickey Mouse House of The Walt Disney Company, Disney continued to produce the BE titles as well as the TV series Little Einsteins up until 2011. Since 2013, the company has been owned and distributed by Kids II Inc., although many BE fans aren't happy with their new copyright system blocking fanmade content which makes no sense.
Althoguh the company hasnt been perfect in recent years, BE has put in all their effort to educate and entertain a generation of youngsters. Congrats and hats off to the entire team who continue to make the BE success what it is.
I have recently been recruiting a few BE fans to contribute to my upcoming YouTube video special "Silver Einstein" a trilogy of tribute videos chronologicalizing the 25 year history of BE. The first installment will go through the first ten videos, the aformentioned Language Nursery that started it all through Baby Beethoven: Symphony of Fun, the second installment will go through the Disney era Baby Neptune: Discovering Water (2002) through Worlds of Rhythm (2011) and the third and final installment will go through the recent WeeSchool era Puppet Play shorts and Sweet Dreams (2016) through the recent title WeeSea (Thanksgiving 2017)
Thank you to Aigner-Clark for lighting up our childhood hearts to experience a love of the classical works known around the world.

Nickelodeon Gets Edgy With All-New iCarly Reboot
Although many have considered wanting a Drake & Josh reboot, Nick has done the next best thing, a comeback of another classic iCarly which originally ran from 2007-2012.
The new 13-episode season which continues the adventures of Miranda Cosgrove, Jerry Trainer and Nathan Kress still vowing to make YouTube videos and internet livestreams is slated to bow on Paramount+ in two weeks from today.
However, to keep things fresh, the show will now be also targeted to adults as well as children. The reboot picks up nine years after the series originally got cancelled with Cosgrove, Trainor and Kress returning to the project they know best. The reasons why the show will include adult content might include some disgusting visuals, footage of drinking beer and even the cast using swear words for their reactions, as revealed in the reboot's first trailer which recently dropped earlier this week.
The first three episodes bow on P+ on 6/17 and then in homage to the original run, the remaining 10 episodes will roll out on the platform weekly through August 27th.
THere's no word on whether the show will air on cable TV as well but most speculations the show might end up on Comedy Central (South Park) due to its content that its about to include.
On June 7th, the streamer will also launch low-cost essentials which for some reasons doesn't include local access to their CBS channels. The app and layout for the former CBS All Access (the name prior to the Paramount+ launch) migrated to a newer seperate application.

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT!? - PAW Patrol Movie Trailer FINALLY Releases
It took us three weeks to get this trailer. THREE WEEKS!!!!!! >:(
The trailer for the film was originally going to release on May 12th, but now FINALLY after three weeks of unreasonable delays the The PAW Patrol Movie trailer has finally been unveiled.
The film's trailer starts out with the PAW team doing more of those nonsense rescue missions. After another day's work of their It's A Hard Life, they get a call from Kim Kardashian as Liberty, who informs the dogs that Mayor Humdinger, known as the worst Nick Jr villain ever created among the series' fierce fans voiced by leend Ron Pardo (Marvin the Tap Dancing Horse) has a new scheme up his hands, in the style of Kate Godfrey of the award-winning All That 2019 reboot, to DESTROYYYYYYY the Adventure City, which for reasons unknown to us has become the mayor for.
For the remainder of the trailer shows clips of the film, including the dogs doing some ACTUAL rescue missions and ACTUAL community service work for the first time such as pitting out the fires and other stuff like that. The song "Good Mood" by Adam Levine plays in the background.
The film also hints that that Humdinger and his kitties will FINALLY get arrested for their naughty plans in this film, the moment every PAW Patrol fan has been waiting for (not really but whatever)
Among Kardashian, the pups' first venture to Hollywood also includes voices from Dax Sheppard, Yara Shahidi, Will Brisbin, Young Dylan creator Tyler Perry, Regis Philbin's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? reboot host Jimmy Kimmel, Young Sheldon alum Iain Armitage taking over as the new voice of Chase the police dog and Marsai Martin among others.
The film is presented by Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon Movies and Spin Master Global Entertainment in associatiion with GURU Animation Studios and animated by Mikros Images (The SpongeBob SquarePants Movies 2 & 3: Sponge Out of Water and A Sponge on the Run)
Also the film is getting the same treatment as Disney and Warner Bros films in months past, having the film release both in theaters and on home media streaming services at the same date of release at the same time. Originally, the film was going to be available on October 4 on Paramount+, just 6 1/2 weeks after the theater release, but now it seems the streaming/home media release is gonna come out on the same day now for anyone who cant make it.
TIckets for the film are on sale now.

Nick Jr. Rips Off The Nickelodeon 2018 Website With New Website Design
How is this a ripoff you might ask? Well, for starters it has the same purple background. Second off, all games, episodes and pages to the series available on the channel have been taken off the sites. Third, they moved all content to the Nick Jr. Play app. Finally, the only things that are still on the site are show information and the channel's TV schedule.
The following channels outside of America that ripped off the Nick website include:
Nick Jr. Australia at nickjr.com.au
Nick Jr. Brazil at nickjr.com.br
Nick Jr. Denmark at nickjr.dk
Nickelodeon Junior France at nickelodeonjr.fr
Nick Jr. Germany at nickjr.de
Nick Jr. International at nickjr.tv
Nick Jr. Latin America at la.nickjr.tv
Nick Jr. Dutch Netherlands at nickjr.nl
Nick Jr. Poland at nickjr.pl
Nick Jr. Spain at nickjr.es
Nick Jr. UK & Ireland at nickjr.co.uk
These website changes with games and episodes removals make no sense as since 2015, online games and episodes have also been made available as mobile friendly websites on smartphones and tablets.
Fear not, everything is still up and running on the Internet Archive Wayback Machine. Just type in the addresses into the search bar at web.archive.org to keep the fun going.
The USA site is still interactive and all your fave Nick Jr stars are still presented and accounted for.
