"Drake has kissed plenty of girls, and now it's Megan's turn," says her alter ego, Miranda Cosgrove, who also stars in Nickelodeon's new fall-slated series iCarly. Hedging a bit as to whether the kiss will come off, though, she adds, "Let's just hope that Drake and Josh don't mess it up." And Devon Werkheiser, who informs his own first kiss didn't go so well -- "Braces, nerves, sweat, the whole deal ..." -- tips off fans that Ned's Spin the Bottle pseudo-smooch with pal Moze sparks a bit of confusion in his character ... Stay tuned for Ned's Declassified's TV movie in June! Nickelodeon's multi-platform efforts will bring "Kiss & Tell" to Nick's digital platforms, too.

Teen-aged Rosalina is conflicted about her feelings for 11-year-old Nat and begs the director to recast. He does, setting up a contest for a lucky girl to be the first ever to kiss Nat on the lips. Nat is hurt and his friendship with Rosalina becomes strained, especially when the winner of the contest is a very pretty, sweet girl that everyone, including Nat, likes. 9 p.m. -- Drake & Josh -- Premiere -- "Megan's First Kiss" -- Megan (Miranda Cosgrove) has been extremely secretive, leading Drake (Drake Bell) and Josh (Josh Peck) to investigate what she's up to.

Cookie accidentally kisses Evelyn, and Ned tries to stop Suzie from kissing another boy. Also, Moze tries to stop Ned from ruining the school play, and Cookie tries anything to get on stage. Nick's live-action series continue to dominate the TV landscape, and in first quarter to date this TEENick trio consistently ranks among cable TV's top five shows both with kids and tweens. Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide in its third smash season continues to chronicle the wacky adventures of Ned Bigby (Devon Werkheiser) and his best pals Moze (Lindsey Shaw) and Cookie (Daniel Curtis Lee) at James K. Polk Middle School, as "every-kid" Ned shatters the fourth wall to share tips and tricks on jumping school hurdles. Each episode features two 11-minute romps. Survival Guides offer tips in dealing with pitfalls and problems of art class, popularity, social studies, the school play, revenge, romance, bad hair days and much more. Scott Fellows (The Fairly OddParents) is creator/executive producer. In its fourth season, blockbuster Drake & Josh's odd couple of teen stepbrothers, Drake Parker and Josh Nichols (Drake Bell and Josh Peck), share shenanigans that cement a brotherly bond. And it is singer-musician/ladies' man Drake who pulls responsible Josh into the high jinks. Miranda Cosgrove (School of Rock) hoodwinks them both as little sis Megan. A Drake & Josh TV movie is on tap this summer. Bell, who penned the show's theme song, continues to perform his original music. Creator/executive producer is Dan Schneider (Zoey 101). In its first season, tween rock 'n roll "mockumentary" hit comedy series The Naked Brothers Band chronicles the fame, friendship and adolescent experiences of a rock star band -- led by dreamy, sensitive singer-songwriter Nat Wolff, 11, and his brother, unabashedly adorable drummer Alex Wolff, 8 -- on and off stage, focusing, too, on their celebrity lifestyle with all of its perks and problems. Featured are the boys' real-life friends and band mates from pre-school days. Creator/executive producer/writer/director Polly Draper (thirtysomething) doubles as off-camera mom to Nat and Alex, who write and perform all of the show's original music. Michael Wolff (The Arsenio Hall Show) -- the stars' real-life dad -- plays against type as the screen tweens' musically inept father and serves as music supervisor/co-executive producer. Albie Hecht (The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie) is executive producer. Nickelodeon, in its 28th year, is the number-one entertainment brand for kids.
