Rock Paper Scissors is an American animated comedy television series created by Kyle Stegina and Josh Lehrman for Nickelodeon. It premiered on February 11, 2024, with a sneak peek airing after the network's alternate broadcast of Super Bowl LVIII.[1]
Plot
Aspiring fashion model Rock, inventor Paper, and ladies' man Scissors go on all sorts of wild adventures together.
Production
After graduating from the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television in 2008, Josh Lehrman worked on Family Guy, Brickleberry, and Robot Chicken. During these gigs, Lehrman tried to come up with his own show ideas. Thankfully, he and his writing partner Kyle Stegina would soon receive professional help with their ideas. Lehrman and Stegina's managers submitted applications to the Disney Channel's Storytellers program in 2014, and their applications were accepted.
During the Storytellers program, Lehrman and Stegina developed what would later become their three-season Disney series Bizaardvark. After the show ended in 2019, Lehrman discovered an opportunity at the competing channel Nickelodeon: the Intergalactic Shorts program. The program was "searching for new and diverse creators from across the globe, focusing on new voices and nurturing their vision for original comedy-driven content with an eye toward representation." Lehrman paired up with Stegina once again to pitch Rock, Paper, Scissors as part of the program.
"We knew we were onto something special with creators Kyle Stegina and Josh Lehrman and their hilarious characters in Rock, Paper, Scissors, which we are so proud to bring to series," said Nickelodeon Animation head Ramsey Naito. "Finding and growing talent through the process of pitch to hit is what powers our Intergalactic Shorts program, and we can't wait to get started finding the next great creator in animation through our program's just-launched second phase."
The full pilot episode was released on August 19, 2023 on the Nicktoons YouTube channel, and an exclusive preview of the pilot was introduced at the NFL Nickmas game on December 25, 2023.

Rock, Paper and Scissors fight over the TV until Scissors brings in an anthropomorphic shark that watches reality TV. The trio try to get their TV back, though one of plans turns into developing a stage show, in which the shark thinks the whole world should see. It was planned out for 9 months, but had forgotten their original plan of getting the TV back. They end up in a game of elimination of a reality TV show, and the shark decides to vote himself to get eliminated, and with an additional from Paper, gets eliminated, as everything goes back to normal until the house gets bulldozed. |
