NICKELODEON INTRODUCES ROCK PAPER SCISSORS, DEBUTING FEBRUARY 12, 2024

All-New Animated Series Stars Ron Funches as Rock, Thomas Lennon as Paper and Carlos Alazraqui as Scissors

Exclusive Look at Original Animated Short to Air Christmas Day on Nickelodeon

BURBANK, Calif. – December 19, 2023 – Inspired by the age-old tradition of settling things with your best friends, the game comes to life through the shenanigans of pals Rock, Paper and Scissors in Nickelodeon’s new animated series Rock Paper Scissors, premiering Monday, February 12, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon. As the first short picked up for series from Nickelodeon’s Intergalactic Shorts Program, new episodes will continue to air weekdays at 5:30 p.m. (ET/PT) and internationally later in the month.

In Rock Paper Scissors, titular characters, Rock, Paper and Scissors, are a trio of best friends and roommates who lovingly compete over everything in hilarious but mostly wildly absurd ways. Throughout season one, the trio will go to extremes playing hide-and-seek around the world, running from the birthday police, defending the world from an alien invasion, going head-to-head with the Rat Bros and more.

Nickelodeon’s brand-new animated comedy stars Ron Funches (Trolls, Trolls Band Together) as Rock, the member of the trio with the biggest heart and moral compass; Thomas Lennon (Zoey 102, 17 Again, Reno 911!) as Paper, the wannabe intellectual who dreams of being a famous inventor; and Carlos Alazraqui (Rocko’s Modern Life, Reno 911!) as Scissors, who acts overly confident and always wants to be cool. The series also stars Melissa Villaseñor (Saturday Night Live) as Pencil, the trio’s incredibly smart neighbor down the hall and Eddie Pepitone (The Muppets, Old School) as Lou, the angry landlord, who is also a garbage can.

Ahead of the series launch, viewers can catch an exclusive look at the Rock Paper Scissors Intergalactic Short, “TV Time,” during the Nickelodeon NFL Nickmas Game on Monday, December 25 at 1:00 p.m. PT / 4:00 p.m. ET on Nickelodeon, where the trio go from fighting over what to watch on TV to being the stars of a successful Broadway musical.

Originally launched in 2019 as a short, Rock Paper Scissors was greenlit for series from Nickelodeon’s Intergalactic Shorts Program. Produced by Nickelodeon Animation, the original Rock Paper Scissors short and series are created, written and executive produced by Kyle Stegina (Robot Chicken) and Josh Lehrman (Robot Chicken), with Conrad Vernon (Sausage Party) and Bob Boyle (The Fairly OddParents) serving as executive producers on the series. Development is overseen by Nickelodeon Animation’s Kari Kim, Vice President of Animation Development and Daniel Wineman, Vice President of Original Animation Development. The series is overseen by Executive in Charge, Jason Oliveri.

“Beginnings Part 2″ 🌊 Animatic 

Watch how Wan became THE ONE in this side-by-side animatic from Book 2, Episode 8.

I've stayed silent in Tumblr for a while, but gotta say something about ROTTMNT.

After I encountered it, I feel deep into the TMNT franchise and found my love for it, but I don't think anything could top the amount of love I have for this series.

I just waited every saturday for it to be released. And for a while, it was the only thing that made me happy, and helped my cope with my BPD, anxiety, depression.

Helped me connect with my amazing tumblr friends, talented artists of every kind, hilarious, warmth and unity in every corner.

Seriously, an amazing production: great story, groovy music scenes, lovable characters, stunning animation, charming voice actors/actresses.

I don't have enough words for it. Too many good things that can be said about it.

I am heartbroken. This amazing show is being cancelled by uncle money bags. Not only we (the fans) had to suffer though extended hiatus for episodes to be released, but the RISE team was forced to cut other episodes and rush a finale that wasn't even announced as the finale.

@nickanimation did so dirty to this series, to it's unbelievable talented and hardworking crew, and to it's loyal and patient fandom.

I'm so grateful to be part of this trip. ROTTMNT is my favorite TMNT reencarnation for life. And I still got hope, that one day it'll comeback.

This show taught me unity with those whom I love and respect, about creating bonds so strong you can fight every obstacle in your way, no matter how hard it is. @nickelodeon you didn't learn a damn thing.

@netflix, if you still planning to do that movie, you will have a good feedback, I promise. Rise fandom is not satisfied. We are not giving up yet.
