The content’s appeal spans pre-schoolers to young teenagers (tweens). Top titles include all seasons of kids’ animated favourites Dora the Explorer, SpongeBob SquarePants and The Penguins of Madagascar, and live action series Victorious and iCarly aimed at tweens. “Nickelodeon is a leading producer of kids and tween content. With this agreement and the other great kids and tween content we offer, we place Viaplay in first position when it comes to content aimed towards the younger audience.” Jakob Mejlhede, MTG Senior Vice President Acquisitions & Programming “This is a very important step for Nickelodeon and Viacom. It is a unique deal and it will strengthen Viacom’s position in the Nordics.
