Nickelodeon Doubles 'Danger Force' Season 1 Episode Order

Nickelodeon has doubled the number of episodes in the first season of Danger Force! Originally picked up for 13 episodes, the freshman season of the network's superhero-themed comedy series, a spin-off from the long-running Henry Danger will now have 26 episodes. The news was confirmed by series creator Christopher J. Nowak on Instagram.


Additionally, Nowak has revealed that the virtually-produced Danger Force special "Quaran-kini" has now been reclassified. The special, filmed at-home during the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, originally had the production code DF-999, but now has the code DF-107.

In addition to the "Quaran-kini", the cast and crew produced several shot-at-home Danger Force "minisodes", which aired on Nickelodeon during August 2020.

Update (3/7/21) - Danger Force season one has officially wrapped, with director Mike Caron teasing that it'll explain why he's wearing a neck brace in the season finale!:


Created and executive produced by Christopher J. Nowak (Henry DangerSam & Cat), the new series stars two of the most beloved characters from Henry Danger, “Ray/Captain Man” (Cooper Barnes) and “Schwoz” (Michael D. Cohen), and introduces four new superheroes-in-training as they team up to fight crime in their town of Swellview. Danger Force is produced by Barnes and Jace Norman (Henry Danger), and production for the series is currently underway.

In Danger Force, four kids--Chapa (Havan Flores), Miles (Terrence Little Gardenhigh), Mika (Dana Heath) and Bose (Luca Luhan)--are recruited to attend Swellview Academy for the Gifted (SW.A.G. for short), a school conceived by Captain Man and brought to life by Schwoz, after having been accidentally mutated in the fight to save Swellview. While there, the kids must learn to harness their frequently troublesome and sometimes uncontrollable superpowers as they begin to fight crime. Despite the dangerous circumstances of their new lives, the superheroes must keep their real identities a secret from both from their families and the villains who are out to destroy them.

Danger Force’s four brand-new superheroes-in-training were introduced in the final episodes of Henry Danger. Henry Danger is Nick’s longest running live-action sitcom, with 128 episodes across five seasons. For 2019 and year to date, the series is the number-one show for Kids 6-11 on all TV.

Production of Danger Force is overseen for Nickelodeon by Shauna Phelan, Senior Vice President, Live-Action Scripted Content. Omar Camacho serves as Nickelodeon’s Executive in Charge of Production for the series.

Danger Force made its world premiere on Nickelodeon USA on Saturday, March 28, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT), and is currently rolling out globally.

Danger Force underscores a key element of Nickelodeon's content strategy, to build and expand the worlds of its enormously popular franchises like Henry Danger, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Blue's Clues & You!, among others, to give audiences more of what they love. Nick's new content slate is informed by the network's ongoing research and insights into today's generation of kids, who: are the most diverse generation ever and expect to see themselves authentically represented in media and in the world around them; want to make a positive difference in the world as they grow up; consider social media stars as their top role models, alongside their parents; and increasingly meet their much-desired need for family time by co-viewing entertainment content together.
