Netflix, Harry Styles and a handful of sequels/revivals scored top honors at Saturday night’s Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, hosted by TikTok influencer Charli D’Amelio and football commentator Nate Burleson (pictured).

On the feature film front, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 won Favorite Movie, beating out a shortlist of mostly live-action pics (including heavy-hitters like Avatar: The Way of Water). Illumination’s Minions: The Rise of Gru took home the prize for Favorite Animated Movie. 

Netflix was a big winner in the family TV category, thanks to the success of its supernatural teen series Wednesday, which won Favorite Family Show and also saw lead actor Jenna Ortega walk away with a Favorite Female TV Star trophy. 

In the kids TV category, Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett scored Favorite Female and Male TV Star awards for Disney’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series—repeating their wins from last year

But ultimately, Paramount+ took home this year’s Favorite Kids Show prize for The Fairly OddParents: Fairly Odder. The series, which dropped on the streamer last March, is a live-action sequel to classic Nick toon The Fairly OddParents.

Harry Styles emerged as a fan-favorite in the music categories, winning three awards for Favorite Male Artist, Favorite Global Music Star and Favorite Song (“As It Was”).
