This isn't the only revival headed to Nickelodeon — the network is also planning to bring back the game show Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader, The Wrap reports, with wrestler and actor John Cena taking over hosting duties from Jeff Foxworthy. And the Nick news doesn't stop there, with Variety also reporting that SpongeBob SquarePants spin-offs are on the way, as are TV shows based on the Paddington and Lego movies.

All these new projects come as Nickelodeon President Brian Robbins is plotting a slate that will get a Netflix-obsessed generation of kids interested again, saying that while filling their airwaves with a lot of episodes of a small number of programs used to be acceptable, now, they need "a constant number of new shows coming."
