Trying to cash in on the boy band craze and the amount of teenage girls who are devoted to their musical heartthrobs, Nickelodeon has jumped on board with two feet.
Big Time Rush is about four male teenage best friends from Minnesota, who after a series of coincidences and luck become the members of a boy band signed to a record label. The four friends leave what they know and love in Minnesota, namely hockey, for the bright lights, warm temperatures and dog-eat-dog world of Los Angeles.
