Paramount sells the German Nickelodeon channel

The German family channel Super RTL wants to take over the children's channel Nickelodeon in Germany and rename it its children's brand Toggo. The companies confirmed an agreement to this effect to the industry magazine DWDL.

According to the agreement, the German broadcaster Super RTL will take over Nickelodeon's satellite frequency and operate the free-to-air channel under its own Toggo brand after a transitional period. 

Popular Nickelodeon series such as PAW Patrol, SpongeBob SquarePants and The Loud House will continue to be shown. The Nickelodeon channel brand will disappear from German free TV. Paramount intends to focus entirely on its streaming services Paramount+ and Pluto TV in the children's sector in Germany in future.
