‘We are happy to bring two all-new animated series to Nickelodeon’s Saturday morning slate of hit Nicktoons,’ said Brown Johnson, president of animation for Nickelodeon/MTVN Kids and Family Group. ‘In T.U.F.F. Puppy, the super-talented Butch Hartman spoofs the spy genre with the one two punch of a bumbling hero and moronic bad guys. In Planet Sheen, Steve Oedekerk and Keith Alcorn send everyone’s favorite goofball, Sheen Estevez, to outer space.’
Nickelodeon’s multiplatform efforts for T.U.F.F. Puppy and Planet Sheen include sneak peeks and promotional content that will stream on Nick.com as well as Nick’s wireless partners and the premiere episode will be simulcast on Nick Mobile.
