In the latest example of a linear broadcaster and streaming platform working together on windowing, Nickelodeon and Netflix are gearing up to roll out CG-animated reboot The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish (20 x 22 minutes) this year.

Nick will premiere the show in the US in the spring, with Netflix staging an international rollout later in 2024.

The new show reimagines one of Nickelodeon’s most popular 2D-animated TV franchises for six to 11s, bringing Cosmo and Wanda out of retirement to grant the wishes of a brand-new protagonist—a 10-year-old girl named Hazel who needs help adjusting to her new life in Dimmadelphia.

Original creator Butch Hartman has returned as an executive producer on this new series, along with Fred Seibert (Adventure Time). Nickelodeon Animation is managing the production, with Neil Wade overseeing things as the executive in charge and David Stone (Teen Titans Go!), Lindsay Katai (Infinity Train), Ashleigh Crystal Hairston (Tiny Toons Looniversity) and Daniel Abramovici (The Peanuts Movie) on board as co-EPs for Nick.

Hartman developed the original concept for Nickelodeon’s Oh Yeah! Cartoons animation showcase in the late ’90s. It was subsequently greenlit as a full-length series and became one of the kidsnet’s longest-running shows, with 172 half-hour eps airing from 2001 to 2017. 

The Fairly OddParents franchise also encompasses three CG/live-action films that were released from 2011 to 2014, as well as a more recent live-action spinoff on Paramount+ called The Fairly OddParents: Fairly Odder (2022).
