Why yes, you read that correctly – – The Bikini Bottom crew will be sharing hosting duties for Sunday’s Superbowl LVIII. Our lives are now complete.
Nickelodeon and CBS Sports announced the first-ever alternate telecast for the Super Bowl, which will air on the kid’s television channel on Sunday, February 11, when the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers kick off in Las Vegas. Paramount Global is the parent company of both CBS Sports and Nickelodeon.
The telecast combines animation and graphics with a traditional game-day telecast.
Characters from the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants will join the telecast live. For example, an animated Sandy Cheeks (voiced by Carolyn Lawrence) is shown on the sidelines of a real-life football field in promotional photos.
