Named Master Toy Licensee for Victorious NEW YORK, Feb. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Building on the momentum of the successful first season of Victorious, Nickelodeon Consumer Products today announced that Spin Master will be the master toy licensee for the top-rated program. Spin Master's new line of products, including fashion dolls and playsets, will debut at New York Toy Fair 2011. "I've had so many incredible things happen to me in the past year...but I never thought I would be co-designing a doll that looks like me," said Victoria Justice, star of Victorious. "It will be based on my character, Tori from my show, Victorious, and she will sing! How cool is that?" Since its launch in April 2010, Victorious has been the number-one live action comedy series in its timeslot on all TV with kids 6-11, tweens 9-14, and teens 12-17, reaching 14.4 million kids, 13.7 million tweens, and 11.4 million teens each quarter.

Victorious is created and executive produced by Dan Schneider, who also created the other Nickelodeon hits iCarly, Drake & Josh, Zoey 101, The Amanda Show, and Kenan and Kel. "The enormous popularity and success of Victorious has led to an overwhelming demand from kids, teens, and tweens," said Manuel Torres, Senior Vice President, Global Toys and Video Games for Nickelodeon Consumer Products. "As the master toy licensee for Victorious, Spin Master will engage the show's loyal and passionate audience and provide them with a lineup of dolls, playsets, and role play items to bring them closer to the excitement of Tori's life at Hollywood Arts High School." "Girls love Victorious because it embodies everything important and aspirational to them: performance, self-expression, a relatable and likeable heroine, and humor," said Nicole Perez, VP of Girls Marketing for Spin Master Ltd. "Our toy line focuses on those key girl triggers. We offer amazing performance based product and we'll be infusing some never before seen technologies. Victorious satisfies key girl play patterns - fashion, hair, role play, and more.

From her first day at the school, however, Tori feels out of place among the amazingly talented students, especially mean diva Jade (Elizabeth Gillies, Broadway's 13). But with the help of her older sister Trina (Daniella Monet, A Fairly Odd Movie,Nancy Drew) and new friends including the musically gifted Andre (Leon Thomas III, August Rush, Broadway's The Lion King, iCarly), brooding bad boy Beck (Avan Jogia, Spectacular!), eccentric Cat (Ariana Grande, Broadway's 13) and lovable but psychologically scrambled ventriloquist Robbie (Matthew Bennett) - Tori realizes that she was born to perform and that entertaining people not only makes her happy but may change her life. The series features original music performed by Victoria Justice and the ensemble cast.

Cook ______________________________ Anna Beresin ______________________________ Todd Wolfson Camden, New Jersey May 2016 ABSTRACT Watching Television with Friends: Tween Girls’ Inclusion of Televisual Material in Friendship By CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER Dissertation Director: Daniel Thomas Cook This qualitative work examines the role of tween live-action television shows in the friendships of four tween girls, providing insight into the use of televisual material in peer interactions. Over the course of one year and with the use of a video camera, I recorded, observed, hung out and watched television with the girls in the informal setting of a friend’s house. I found that friendship informs and filters understandings and use of tween television in daily conversations with friends. Using Erving Goffman’s theory of facework as a starting point, I introduce a new theoretical framework called friendship work to locate, examine, and understand how friendship is enacted on a granular level. Friendship work considers how an individual positions herself for her own needs before acknowledging the needs of her friends, and is concerned with both emotive effort and social impact. Through group television viewings, participation in television themed games, and the creation of webisodes, the girls strengthen, maintain, and diminish previously established bonds.

  • CPYU Trend Alert
    CPYU Trend Alert: TV for Tweens by Chris Wagner Television programs produced specifically for the tween demographic are taking off. Cable television is beginning to find a niche among tween viewers by focusing on live-action shows. Evidence of this can be seen in the recent success of Disney’s High School Musical franchise and Hannah Montana , as well as Nickelodeon’s Drake & Josh and The Naked Brothers Band . Tweens, of course, have always watched television. However back in the late 1990’s, a gradual shift began occurring among broadcast networks that largely neglected this age group. Dan Schneider, creator of past and present Nickelodeon hits such as Zoey 101 and The Amanda Show says that networks used to air family shows during primetime hours. As of recent years, these time slots have become edgier and racier and as a result, young children and tweens (with diligent parents) were left to view shows elsewhere. Because cable channels had been marketing shows to tweens for many years already, they were primed and ready to step in and fill the programming void. Tweens are in a stage of their lives where they’re no longer beginning to think of themselves as kids. They have not reached full-fledged adolescence, yet are beginning to test their independence and find their individuality. Gary Marsh, the Disney Channel’s president for entertainment says, “[Tweens] are trapped between the cocoon and comfort of being a child, and the rebellion and independence they want as a teenager. So your goal is trying to satisfy all those needs that kids have.” Though differing opinions exist, cable companies generally categorize the tween demographic as being between 9 and 14 years old.
