Netflix has revived the world of 'Victorious' with 'Hollywood Arts', a 12-episode spinoff centred on Trina Vega as a substitute teacher at the performing arts school. The review calls it familiar and over-the-top, but likely to appeal to younger viewers.

01Summary

  1. 01The new series arrives 13 years after Nickelodeon’s 'Victorious' ended.
  2. 02'Hollywood Arts' is a 12-episode first season set at the Los Angeles performing arts school.
  3. 03Daniella Monet reprises her role as Trina Vega, with Victoria Justice appearing as her sister Tori in the backstory.
  4. 04The show was created by Jake Farrow and Samantha Martin.
  5. 05The cast also includes Eric Lane, Yvette Nicole Brown, Peyton Jackson, Martin Kamm, Alyssa Miles, Erika Swayze and Emmy Liu-Wang.

02Why it matters

The series shows Netflix leaning into nostalgia for early-2000s tween television, which may attract younger viewers and fans of 'Victorious'. Its centring of a thirtysomething woman trying to find her way also gives the familiar format a more adult angle.
