NICKELODEON OFFERS FANS EXCLUSIVE SNEAK PEEK AT "SAM & CAT," AVAILABLE ONLY ON iTUNES

Nickelodeon is giving fans a first look at its brand-new live-action series, Sam & Cat, exclusively on iTunes before its on-air premiere, Saturday, June 8, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT). Starring Jennette McCurdy (iCarly's Sam Puckett) and Ariana Grande (Victorious' Cat Valentine), the spin-off comedy follows the two funny gals as they become best friends and unlikely roommates who start a babysitting service. The seven minute iTunes sneak peek features a special message from McCurdy and Grande, and gives fans a taste of the humor and entertainment Sam & Cat has to offer.

In the series premiere, total opposites Sam Puckett and Cat Valentine first meet when a wild predicament lands both girls in the back of a moving garbage truck. After quickly becoming friends and roommates, they find themselves babysitting three younger kids, which give Sam and Cat the idea to start Sam & Cat's Super Rockin' Fun-Time Babysitting Service. Sam & Cat is created by award-winning executive producer Dan Schneider (iCarly, Victorious, Drake & Josh, Zoey 101).

Additionally, all seasons of iCarly and Victorious will be discounted on iTunes beginning June 3 through June 11.
