Kids’ Choice Awards: Stranger Things, SpongeBob Among 2021 TV Winners

Eligibility periods be damned. Stranger Things, which hasn’t released a new episode in nearly two years, took home a pair of trophies at the 2021 Kids’ Choice Awards, including Favorite Family TV Show.

Gaten Matarazzo, Finn Wolfhard and Noah Schnapp virtually accepted the orange blimp on behalf of the entire cast, while Millie Bobby Brown was on hand to accept two more awards: Favorite Female TV Star and Favorite Movie Actress (for Enola Holmes).

All That and Kenan and Kel grad Kenan Thompson returned to his former Nickelodeon stomping grounds to host the slime-tastic event, which featured socially distant appearances by Robert Downey Jr. (who accepted the award for Favorite Movie Actor for, um, Doolittle), Lin-Manuel Miranda, Tyler Perry and Kim Kardashian, and the casts of black-ish (Anthony Anderson, Yara Shahidi and Marsai Martin) and iCarly (Miranda Cosgrove, Nathan Kress and Jerry Trainor).

Meanwhile, Jennifer Garner introduced Vice President Kamala Harris, who presented the Generation Change Award to the young leaders across the nation. In a prerecorded speech, the VP thanked America’s youth, who have endured remote learning and maintained social distancing throughout the pandemic.
