  • Bucket and Skinner: Epic Cupids Is Tonight!

    Posted on 04/24/2013 by Lisa

    Why are Bucket and Skinner's heads plastic-wrapped together? It'll make sense (kinda) when you watch the new Bucket and Skinner, tonight at 9pm et (6pm pt).

    Bucket and Skinner
    I love this pic.

    Bucket and Skinner
    The more Bucket and Skinner I watch, the more I appreciate Aloe. I like anyone who's willing to burst into song in public.

    Bucket and Skinner
    What's with the epic use of hair product? Tune in tonight!

    Bucket and Skinner
    And one last reason to watch tonight -- you'll get to see Ashley Argota dressed as broccoli and Tiffany Espensen dressed as a can of soda.

    Tune in at 9pm et / 6pm pt for a Bucket and Skinner packed with MUCH MORE epic silliness than you see in this blog post! (Also: Bucket wears a really cute T-shirt with a polar bear riding on a whale.)

  • House of Anubis: Season 2 Continues This Week!

    Posted on 04/22/2013 by Lisa

    We're showing House of Anubis: Season 2, Monday-Thursday at 8 and 8:30pm ET (5 and 5:30pm PT).

    Need to catch up? Watch full episodes here and here. If you're all caught up, you deserve some gifs!

    I love how in this one they all look like glamorous soap opera stars. Watching this gif, you'd never guess how much time these kids spend in dusty attics, dirty basements, and cobwebby crypts.

    House of Anubis

    A useful life tip, whether you live at Anubis House or not: If you have to go anywhere dark and scary, don't go alone. Bring friends (and flashlights) with you.

    House of Anubis

    Don't forget to watch...

  • Happy Earth Day, Everybody!

    Posted on 04/22/2013 by Lisa

    It's Earth Day, and we're celebrating by appreciating nature and the romantic moments it creates. Like this one:

    I can really relate to what Katie says about how working in the garden has helped her. Nature is the best. Whenever I'm stressed or sad, the best thing I can do for my brain is take a hike or sit by the ocean and watch the waves.

    This planet is good for us, so let's be good back to it, OK? (And not just on Earth Day, of course.)

    Maybe if we're lucky, someday we'll all get to experience a Jatie-like moment where our hands touch around a l'il baby plant:

    Happy Earth Day!

  • Degrassi: The Best Bestie Episode Winner!

    Posted on 04/19/2013 by Lisa

    This week, we asked you to vote for your favorite Degrassi episode about friendship, and we posted the winner online for Fan Favorite Friday. "My Body Is a Cage" won by a ton of votes! Want to watch Eli and Clare support Adam as he comes out as transgender? We put the full episode online.

    If you've never seen "My Body Is a Cage," this is the episode that won Degrassi a Peabody Award (which is a really big deal). It's also one of my all-time favorite Degrassi episodes, so I'm glad you guys voted for us to put it online.

    Adam (Jordy Todosey)
    Watching Adam struggle to make peace with his family, his friends, and his own body makes me teary-eyed, but one of my absolute favorite moments in this episode is when he tells Clare and Eli (two of his closest friends at Degrassi) about being transgender. Their response, which is basically, "OK, cool," makes me love THEM so much more, too.

    Adam, Eli, and Clare
    Next week, we'll put up a new poll and post a different winner online, so go watch My Body Is a Cage now!

  • Random Hotness: Burkely Duffield

    Posted on 04/18/2013 by Lisa

    On tonight's House of Anubis: Season 2, Eddie (played by Burkeley Duffield) arrives at the school. This post is for all the Eddie fans out there:

    Eddie (Burkely Duffield)
    He is cute, isn't he?

    Eddie (Burkely Duffield)
    I like to think this is how Burkeley reacts when we tweet nice things about him.

    Eddie (Burkely Duffield)
    Maybe this is how he looks when he's daydreaming...

    Eddie (Burkely Duffield)
    And here's one more, just because dude looks nice in a tie. :)

    Season 2 of House of Anubis continues tonight at 8 and 8:30pm et on TeenNick!

  • Degrassi: What's the best bestie episode?

    Posted on 04/17/2013 by Lisa

    We're putting a friendship-themed episode of Degrassi online on Friday -- VOTE for the one you wanna see! A few of the contenders are below:

    On Degrassi, friends are the people who keep your secrets (like when Holly J caught Jane cheating on Spinner with Declan).
    Jane and Holly J

    Friends don't care what gender you were born... they care what you're like as a person:
    Dave and Adam

    Your closest friend can become your worst enemy (especially if you're both running for president, and she wants to fight dirty).
    Katie and Marisol

    And of course, friends are always willing to do embarrassing things with you in public.
    Tori and Tristan

    Degrassi has so many good friendships!! Check out the Facebook Poll to see more options. We'll check the winner on Friday afternoon and put that episode online for Fan Favorite Friday.

  • Bucket and Skinner: Epic Cheer!

    Posted on 04/17/2013 by Lisa

    A never-before-seen Bucket and Skinner that involves cheerleading? Could it possibly be true? Yup. It's a:

    Fact!

    On tonight's episode, Bucket and Skinner hear that the whole cheerleading squad might win a trip to Hawaii. Pretty sure this is exactly how I'd react, too:

    Go Seals!

    If you're wondering what happens when you combine Bucket and Skinner with Bring It On, it looks a little something like this:

    Bucket and Skinner

    Take your brain on an epically silly trip to the ocean, tonight at 9pm et. (You can also watch full episodes of Bucket and Skinner online!)
