After spending five seasons as the wacky brother, Spencer, on Nickelodeon's hit show iCarly, Jerry Trainor will be starring in a comedy of his own next month!
Wendell & Vinnie, will premiere Sunday, February 17 at 8pm ET/PT. According to a press release from Nickelodeon, "the series follows 30-year-old Vinnie Bassett (Trainor) living the life of a carefree bachelor, when he suddenly becomes the legal guardian of his precocious, wise-beyond-his-years nephew, Wendell (Buddy Handleson, Shake It Up) forming a hysterical odd-couple family dynamic. Nicole Sullivan (Rita Rocks, MadTV) also stars as Vinnie’s older unlucky-in-love sister, Wilma, with Haley Strode (Gangster Squad) as Vinnie’s newly divorced neighbor and love interest, Taryn. The series will air regularly on Sundays at 8pm ET/PT."
"Jerry’s infectious style of wacky comedy made him a favorite with kids and families over the past five years on iCarly, and this new family series from the Emmy award-winning sitcom veteran Jay Kogen will showcase his incredible comedic talents to an even broader audience," said Russell Hicks, Nickelodeon’s President of Content Development and Production. "We look forward to the smart humor that develops from this collaboration."
