And finally... Nickelodeon builds up Paw Patrol spin-off

Paw Patrol’s construction pub Rubble will take to the screens next year in his own spin-off of the popular kids’ show, Nickelodeon has announced.

Rubble & Crew, set around the character of the beloved bulldog, will debut on the children’s network on February 3rd.

“As a proud member of the PAW Patrol, Rubble has stolen the hearts of preschoolers around the world with his loyal, optimistic nature and penchant for treats,” said Jennifer Dodge, the entertainment and executive producer of Spin Master, which produces both shows.

“Our new series expands Rubble’s world with storytelling that digs into amazing construction projects and the importance of family, combined with high-stakes action, fun adventures, and messy demolition that preschoolers will love.



The synopsis reads: “Set in the community of Builder Cove, a neighbouring town to PAW Patrol’s Adventure Bay, Rubble & Crew centres on Rubble, the funny and optimistic leader of the construction crew.

“In the small, quickly growing town, lots of things are still needed for the community to come together, including a bigger airport, train station, bridges, tunnels, schools, fire stations, parks, and more. Rubble and his construction pup family — his pup cousins Mix, Wheeler, Charger, Motor, along with Grandpa Gravel and Auntie Crane — must work together to tackle and build all the projects the town needs.”

Characters in Rubble & Crew include Mix, a construction chemist handling all things concrete, glue, cement and custom paints; Motor, the tiniest and youngest pup who is a valuable member of the construction crew and looking for ways to be a good helper with her power smash-it energy; Grandpa Gravel, Rubble’s grandpa, the family kibble chef who supplies the team with snacks from his tasty food truck; Speed Meister, who runs the rival construction company in town along with his slow-moving villainous sidekick, Mr McTurtle — together they build fast and sorta good; and mayor Greatway, Adventure Bay Mayor Goodway’s sister, a motorcycle-riding bubbly bundle of friendliness and her pet, Mr Ducky-Doo.

“Every dog has its day, so we’re answering the fan demand for more of PAW Patrol’s beloved bulldog, Rubble, with his very own series that marks the TV expansion of the global Paw franchise,” said Ramsey Naito, the president of Paramount animation and Nickelodeon animation.



“Rubble & Crew is an all-new series focusing on family and community, and it’s filled with new characters and big adventures that lean into construction play patterns that will let the audience engage in a whole new way.”
