Nickelodeon has announced to launch its co-production with Nickelodeon International – The Twisted Timeline of Sammy & Raj – in India from October 15. As per the company, the new-age comedy will air every Saturday-Sunday at 1pm.
Nickelodeon has filled another need gap in the kids’ category with a content library of genre-defining IPs such as Motu Patlu, Shiva, Rudra, Pinaki and Happy – The Bhoot Bandhus, Chikoo Aur Bunty, Abhimanyu Ki Alien Family, among others.
Talking about the partnership with Nickelodeon International, Anu Sikka, head – creative, content and research, kids TV network, Viacom18, said, “The Twisted Timeline of Sammy & Raj is a collaborative testament between Nickelodeon International and us to deliver diverse, inclusive top-quality content for our young audiences. Filled with humour, this story of time travel is a fresh and unparalleled addition to our slate. We are confident that this show will grow to become an instant favourite, reaffirming our commitment to kids and the category.”
Moreover, a first-of-its-kind animated series, ‘The Twisted Timeline of Sammy & Raj’ revolves around the escapades of two cousins, Sammy and Raj who possess a unique and mysterious time-altering app. With the ability to pause, rewind and fast-forward time itself, Sammy and Raj embark on a series of amusing adventures as they attempt to tackle various issues.
However, their well-intentioned efforts often end up causing a delightful blend of uproarious chaos and comedic situations. In each episode, Sammy and Raj encounter fresh and entertaining challenges, all while utilising their time-altering app to cleverly manoeuvre through the hurdles that come their way.
“The Twisted Timeline of Sammy & Raj is the successful result of our partnership with Viacom18. Thanks to extensive collaboration and strong teamwork, we managed to create a powerful story that explores differences between Eastern and Western sensibilities. The team in India was key to creating the story line and defining the characters for a kids’ show which gives audiences a taste of Indian culture, while capturing universal storylines that appeal to all audiences,” Chris Rose, VP of international production and development for paramount’s global kids and family group, added.
