Maybe since they’re co-workers now, Spongebob Squarepants can give Cam Newton some tips about having a positive attitude when things go wrong.

And he can also go pick up Rob Gronkowski after a long night, since he’s been spending plenty of time around Bikini Bottom himself these days.

According to the Associated Press, the kids television network Nickelodeon announced plans Wednesday for two new shows starring Newton and Gronkowski, at least one of whom seems tailor made to host a show for kids.

The one starring the Panthers quarterback will be called “All In,” and will feature the league MVP taking kids on dream-fulfilling journeys.

The Patriots tight end will host “Crashletes,” which sounds like a show of sports action clips.

The shows are designed as part of a shift away from the network’s heavy base of animation, though one might argue that doing it with a cartoon character like Gronkowski makes it an unusual decision.
