Snoop Dogg Gets Animated in Nickelodeon’s "Sanjay and Craig

Music sensation Snoop Dogg guest stars as Street Dogg, a rap icon who moves in next door to Sanjay and Craig in the special half-hour premiere of Emmy nominated series, Sanjay and Craig, “Street Dogg,” Sunday, May 17, at 7:30 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon.  Street Dogg is a cool, funny, friendly guy who is always eager to rhyme with the kids. He’s come to town to escape the bright lights of LA, chill out, make some new music and live a quiet suburban life.

 During the special, Sanjay and Craig discover that Street Dogg was once part of a rap duo with none other than Remington Tufflips, the boys’ action-movie idol.  They set out to reunite the former pair, but their failed efforts only lead to a town divided—and the mother of all rap battles! Check out the stills below.

"Sanjay and Craig" Season 2 Starts September 21st

Hilarity ensues on Saturday, Sept. 21 at 10:30 a.m., ET/PT with an all-new episode of Sanjay and Craig. In “Unbarfable,” Sanjay and Craig vow to make Hector barf for the first time. Then in “Game On,” the search is on when Sanjay and Craig’s favorite video game goes AWOL. Nickelodeon recently greenlit a second season with a 20-episode order of the hit original animated series that follows the misadventures of Sanjay, an excitable and irreverent 12-year-old boy (Maulik Pancholy, 30 Rock) and his best friend Craig, a smooth-talking snake and master of disguise (Chris Hardwick,The Talking Dead). Together, they embark on awesome kid-inspired quests that are at times totally ridiculous, absolutely gross and weirdly sweet. The series is created by Jim Dirschberger, Jay Howell and Andreas Trolf. Dirschberger, Howell and Thurop Van Orman are co-executive producers, and award-winning animation team Chris Viscardi and Will McRobb are executive producers.
