Nickelodeon’s “Blaze and the Monster Machines” will have 20 episodes for a third season of the animated preschool series.

Additionally, current season episodes of “Blaze and the Monster Machines” will feature celebrity guest voices including Joe Manganiello (“True Blood”) as Fire Chief and Mayim Bialik (“The Big Bang Theory”) as Sphinx.

“‘Blaze and the Monster Machines’ got off to a roaring start last fall with the incredible monster trucks quickly becoming fan favorites,” says Russell Hicks, president, content development and production, Nickelodeon Group. “The upcoming fall premieres of ‘Blaze’ will accelerate the momentum and introduce new car transformations and even more of the STEM-packed adventures that kids love.”

The first mobile app based on the series recently launched a Dragon Island update that propelled the app to No. 1 on the Kids and Education chart. The “Blaze and the Monster Machines” app introduces preschoolers to STEM concepts as they race along preset courses or build their own tracks, encouraging children to apply critical thinking skills and explore scientific principles including acceleration, adhesion, force, friction and more. 

In the toy aisle, Nickelodeon and Fisher-Price, a subsidiary of Mattel, recently launched an all-new toy line based on “Blaze and the Monster Machines” that is available at select retailers now with a full nationwide rollout in August. Nickelodeon will expand the Blaze license into new categories this fall to include ride-ons, bikes, construction, amusement, activities, novelty, publishing and party goods.
