BURBANK, Calif.-March 2, 2021-Nickelodeon's brand-new preschool series Baby Shark's Big Show! will make a splash with its spring premieres, beginning Friday, March 26, at 12:30 p.m. (ET/PT), when preschoolers can join the pop culture phenomenon for jaw-some underwater escapades. Co-produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio and SmartStudy, the global entertainment company behind the beloved children's brand Pinkfong, the series (26 half-hour episodes) follows Baby Shark and his best friend William as they journey on fun-filled comedic adventures in their community of Carnivore Cove, make new friends and sing original catchy tunes along the way.

"It's a series that celebrates family, friends and adventure through comedy, catchy songs and stories of social-emotional learning."

In "Baby Tooth/Slobber Slug," premiering Friday, March 26, Baby Shark gets his first loose tooth and enlists William's help to lose it so he can trade it in for a sand dollar. When their antics get the tooth lost for real, they must team up with the Toothfish Fairy to track it down. Then, while Baby Shark and his friends are playing Barnacle Ball, Hank's pet rock, Rocky, is accidentally sent soaring into the lair of the vicious Slobber Slug and they must stage an elaborate rescue mission.

Following the premiere, the episode will be available on Nick Jr. On Demand and Download-To-Own services, as well as Noggin, Nickelodeon's interactive learning service for preschoolers, NickJr.com and the Nick Jr. App, which will also feature short-form content.
