Talk:Winx/Students again

Re: Students again
A lot of people have asked why the Winx are students again. Since I’ve been asked so many times, here's the rundown: Nickelodeon wanted to change the target audience — and by doing so, they had to keep the Winx young. Nickelodeon had gained the rights to Winx Club at this time— I assume you’re referring to the scene where they return as students in Season Five? Nickelodeon loved the childish concept of Winx. Nickelodeon wanted to sell more toys. They wanted to keep the series to a younger audience, and that involved creating an idea of teenagers at a fairy school, and not mature, capable, adults with magic. Making the Winx younger would ensure that the target audience was younger, and hence more attraction, hence more toys. However, this hadn’t been the case before. Older teenagers and even some adults were quite avid fans of Winx Club, due to the interesting art style and plot. Nickelodeon didn’t want to outcast the older fan base, but create more interest in younger children. Then came the soft reboot on the series for Season 8. With the art style becoming more childish, the Winx go from adults to teenagers. Don’t get me started on the specialists … they look 12. ElizaWilson (talk) 03:17, September 15, 2019 (UTC)
