On the set: Making Skatoony Canuck-style

Immersed as I am in the world of kids television production, it's rare that I actually get a chance to sit in on a live taping. So I was as surprised as anyone when I got a good shushing from the audio technician working the Toronto set of the North American version of Skatoony. I was laughing louder than the kids, but I don't think it was my fault, really. I mean who expects a show director to launch into a ridiculous, yet inexplicably spot-on impersonation of a drunken dinosaur, stumbling and crawling around the studio, when they go to a taping? Needless to say, the performance - intended to loosen up the pre-teen contestants of the hybrid game/toon series - had more than the kids in stitches that day.
