In
order to strengthen the weekday primetime NickToons block,
Nick has launched a new show Trollz at 4.30 pm on weekdays.
Trollz will join Chalkzone, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron
and SpongeBob SquarePants, which also feature on the block.
 Nick
India vice president and general manager Hema Govindan said,
"This is our first new show for 2006, a year which is
going to be a landmark year for us especially in terms of
new content. Our NickToons block has been gaining ground and
looks unstoppable with its present lineup."
Trollz
is about five new-age girls from the whimsical city of Trollzopolis,
a magical modern world far away where everyone is a Troll
- a small creature that is half body and half very tall hair.
Apart
from their quirky looks, the lives of Trollz are not very
different from ordinary people. There are girl and boy Trollz,
Troll families, schools and a big mall in the middle of the
biggest city, Trollzopolis. The difference is that girl Trollz,
once they're old enough, can do magic.
The
characters include five girl best friends: the sweet Amethyst,
willful Ruby, dark Onyx, ditzy Topaz and thoughtful Sapphire,
their schoolmates Coal, Rock, Jasper, Flint, and Alabaster
and their families. The lives of the five girls, all in the
ninth grade, undergo a dramatic change once they realise the
existence of Troll magic and discover that care and skill
must go into its use.
Trollz
is the contemporary version of the classic colourful, spiky-haired
Troll characters. The 21st century Trollz merges teenage lifestyle
with a touch of technology and a dusting of magic to create
a unique property that is cool, empowering and aspirational.
