Flashdance’s Iconic Bucket Rains Down on Paramount Mountain in New Spots

Droga5 has launched its latest work for Paramount+, ‘The Storm’ and ‘Cave Painting.’

In 'The Storm,' we find a delightful mix of characters relaxing together—Bumblebee, Spock, Cedric the Entertainer, a Crank Yanker, etc.—when suddenly, storm clouds begin to gather. And because this is Paramount Mountain, it’s not just any old rainstorm. It’s the bucket of water from Flashdance. With all the drama and dance moves of the iconic 80s movie montage, we see Paramount+ heroes doused in a sexy downpour straight from this giant floating bucket. Then, after several of the characters pay homage to Flashdance, the bucket falls from the sky and crushes Kenny from South Park. 'The Storm' spot debuted this past Saturday during SNL with John Mulaney hosting & LCD Soundsystem performing. Fixed positions in top network programming including: Real Housewives, A Million Little Things, Law & Order: Organized Crime, Walking Dead, & more!

In 'Cave Painting,' we find some of Paramount+ animated heroes exploring a cave on the mountain. Dora the Explorer leads the way for the rest of the group – including Aang from Avatar the Last Airbender, Big Nate, PAW Patrol’s Skye & Chase, Blue from Blue’s Clues, and Peppa Pig. As they observe cave paintings etched on the walls, they also discover a mysterious oil painting. It’s Spongebob’s Painty the Pirate, who springs to life and begins talking… maybe a little too excitedly.  The walls of the cave feature easter eggs of other animated inhabitants of this mountain. Some of those iconic Nickelodeon characters include: The Fairly OddParents’ Wanda & Cosmo, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Michelangelo & Donatello, The Rugrats Tommy & Chuckie & Reptar, Sonic the Hedgehog, SpongeBob & Patrick, Star Trek: Prodigy Murf & Rok Tahk along with Team Umizoomi, Blaze and the Monster Machines, and The Loud House characters.
