Everything you need to know about the Paramount+ kids show, Victorious
Victorious is a teen comedy series following the story of Tori Vega, who finds herself chasing her dreams after being accepted into the elite school, Hollywood Arts.
Once she’s there, she bonds with a group of teens including:
- Sweet-but-dim Cat
- Acidically-sarcastic tough nut Jade
- Awkward Robbie, who spends his days with his ventriloquist dummy Rex
- The smooth-talking Beck
- Musical star-in-the-making André
With no help from her self-absorbed sister Trina, Tori navigates her teenage years and quest for stardom with the help of her pals.
Launching in 2010, the series ran for four seasons before ending in 2014.
The show was later loosely connected to iCarly with the spin-off series, Sam and Cat, featuring Cat from Victorious moving in with iCarly’s Sam and starting a babysitting business. The two shows also had crossover episodes with characters appearing on the opposite show.
