YOU'RE SOOOOO. BUSTED!!! - Nickelodeon Announces Voice Cast for Baby Shark Movie Releasing on Paramount+ This Christmas

Candace Flynn:  MOM!!!! Baby Shark is making an Arianna Grande ripoff!

Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures and Pinkfong today have announced the official celebrity voice cast for its upcoming Baby Shark's Big Show! The Movie which is slated to release on the Paramount+ SVOD platform in November/December 2023 over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. In the movie, Baby Shark and his family have the stupidity to ripoff one of the greatest Christmas movies of our generation Home Alone when they have to move away from their beloved town of Carnivores Cove and leave his best friend in the whole wide water, William behind.

The leader of the celebrity bunch is none other than Disney Legend Ashley Tisdale (The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, High School Musical, Phineas and Ferb) as the villain character Stariana, a Baby Shark ripoff of one of the greatest female artists of our time Arianna Grande. Additional celebrities joining the underwater movie launch party include Aparma Nanchara (Mira the Royal Detective) as Stariana's assistant boxerfish Gillie, Ego Nwodim of Saturday Night Live fame as Leah, a lantern shark who is Mommy Shark's BFF who used to go to university/college with her, recent SNL veteran Chole Fineman as Lannie, Leah's hyper and drunk but lovable daughter, newly-rising K-pop band EPHYEN as a group of dubstep beluga whales, *NSYNC member Lance Bass playing himself and Cardi B's son Wave as Wave Shark, while Cardi B and her family of Kulture and Offset return as their underwater counterparts of Sharki B, Kulture Shark and Offshark respectively.

It's currently unknown what the soundtrack will be or if any pop culture artists will write the songs and music for the motion picture when it comes out later this witner. However what we CAN confirm is that Ashley Tisdale's character will end up being the one grounded and sent to jail and forced to be listening to the Baby Shark song on YouTube for the rest of her life. We're not sure about any other plot details, but some of the tracks from the film should be released to digital platforms a few weeks in advance with the full motion picture soundtrack dropping once the movie comes out.

BAby Shark's Big Show! The Movie is just one of the many new preschool projects that Nickelodeon has planned for the 2023-2024 season. The Baby Shark movie joins recently launched series Rubble & Crew and Bossy Bear as well as the upcoming Dora the Explorer reboot, HexVet, Super Duper Superhero Bunny League, Nelvana's Hamsters of Hamsterdale and the PAW Patrol II: The Mighty Pups Movie slated to release on Friday September 29th, 2023.

Be Part Of It - ITV To Close Down CITV In Fall/Autumn 2023

Today is a very sad and sombre day for the children's television industry. After four decades on the air, British terrestrial TV company ITV plc. has announced that it will fully shut down its iconic children's network powerhouse CITV in Autumn 2003 in late September or early October and replace it with a new streaming network ITV Kids on its recently relaunched streaming platform ITVx.

When Matthew Kelly (Stars in Their Eyes, You Bet!) kicked off the very first broadcast of CITV from the rocketship studio in Birmingham four decades ago, the network didn't know back then how influential of a global success the 15-hour UK kids telly pwoerhouse would eventually become. In the years and decades since, the channel hasproduced banger after banger of TV nostalgia, including Thomas & Friends, Sooty; one of the three longest-running preschool series in the world lasting for 63 years from 1955-2018 with Harry & Matthew Corbett and Richard Cadell, Engie Benjy with Ant & Dec, the legendary global smash hit icon that is Art Attack and Finders Kepers UK with Neil Buchanan, HOW with Fred Dineage, Boohbah, Rosie & Jim, Tots TV, Rainbow with Charles Geoffrey Heyes, Wizardora, ZZZap!, Fun House with Pat Sharp, On Safari with exotic Christopher Biggins, Eliminator and Jungle Run with Michael Underwood, You Can Do Magic, The Quick Tricks Show, Brilliant Creatures, Fingertips, Globo Loco and Tricky TV with Stephen Mulhern, the short-lived game Petsswap and Pump It Up with Dave Benson Phillips and Fearne Cotton, newspaper drama Press Gang, sci-fi game show Knightmare with Hugo Myatt and countdown show Top 10 of Everything. The network has also given home to many Saturday morning blocks of variety shows including No. 73, Get Fresh, Motormouth, What's Up Doc?, Gimme 5!, Ghost Train, Wacaday, Wide Awake Club, Scratchy & Co, Ministry of Mayhem, Scrambled! and SM:TV Live/CD:UK with Ant & Dec and Cat Deeley.

When the last of its golden shows got cancelled in 2006-2007, the channel has been going into making a lot of terrible cringe quality content in the last 15 years having the stupidity to once again drop in-vision studio hosts and continuity and go back to out-of-vision with announcer Tim Dann ever since. The Studio B of Gas Street Studios in Birmingham and the 1998-2006 oval shaped logo was the true end of the network's golden era. The only good content aside from the preschool programs that the network has made in the years since includes Horrid Henry, HOW reboot, Thunderbirds Are GO!, Mr. bean: The Animated Series and the most recently Saturday block Scrambled! which got axed in April 2021.

CITV unfortunately isn't the only channel in danger as its long-serving centennial rival CBBC is also on the verge of getting axed to the cutting room floor and being shut down as later as 2025. This comes as another way of BBC and ITV trying to save money and trying to get the license fees refunded and still in another long-serving epidemic to make the internet accessible for all British communities.

However, fear not, CITV will still exist in some way extent shape or form with the CITV strand moving to weekday mornings on ITV2 in September while CBeebies and CBBC programs continue to air every Saturday morning from 6:00am-9:35am on BBC2.

RIP CITV. Thank you to Matthew Kelly, Steve Ryde and all the team on this network past and present who have turned this channel into what it is today. This network will be dearly missed.
