Today, February 16, at 8p.m. (ET/PT), get ready as Jerry Trainor steps into his first starring role in Nickelodeon's brand-new half-hour comedy starring the iCarly alum, WENDELL & VINNIE.

Wendell & Vinnie follows Vinnie Bassett (Trainor), proprietor of a pop culture memorabilia store who only takes breaks to read comic books and play video games. His bachelor life comes to a halt when he assumes guardianship of his incredibly intelligent and mature nephew, Wendell (Buddy Handleson, Shake It Up). They soon find that 12-year-old Wendell may be just the parent Vinnie needs. The series also stars Nicole Sullivan (MadTV, Rita Rocks) as Vinnie's sister, Wilma and Haley Strode (Gangster Squad) as Taryn, Vinnie's next door neighbor.

Then, on Sunday, February 17, at 8:30p.m. (ET/PT), Big Time Rush's JAMES MASLOW will reprise his role as superstar Ricky Adams on an all-new episode of See Dad Run.

In this episode, "See Dad Campaign," when David (Scott Baio) discovers that his daughter Emily (Ryan Newman) is running for class president against the son of his long-time rival (special guest star Ted McGinley), he embeds himself in her campaign but wife Amy (Alanna Ubach) and Emily surprise him by leaning on superstar Ricky Adams (Maslow) to help her win the race.
