    • Overview
    • Episodes written

    Will McRobb and Chris Viscardi are American television show-creators, screenwriters and producers. Along with Robert Mittenthal, they created the Nickelodeon animated sketch comedy series KaBlam! (Mittenthal and McRobb also were co-creators, with network executive/producer Albie Hecht, of the segment Action League Now!). In addition to creating the show, McRobb and Viscardi wrote episodes.

    McRobb and Viscardi began working together after finishing a graduate program in television and film at Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in 1985, landing jobs with Nickelodeon's promotions department. Their breakthrough would be the critically-acclaimed live-action show The Adventures of Pete & Pete, starting out with 16 short films (ran as interstitials on the network) in the late 1980s. Five half-hour specials were broadcasted between 1991 and 1993, and then 34 half-hour episodes aired over three seasons from 1993 to 1996. McRobb and Viscardi wrote the 2000 film Snow Day where originally, it was set to be based on Pete & Pete, but the idea fell through and it was rewritten as a standalone story. In 2008, they co-wrote the screenplay for the computer-animated adventure fantasy film The Tale of Despereaux (based on the 2003 novel of the same name by Kate DiCamillo). From 2013 to 2016, McRobb and Viscardi were executive producers/writers on the animated sitcom Sanjay and Craig.
