isPermaLink="false">http://www.hollywoodnorthreport.com/article.php?Article=7946</guid> <description><![CDATA[ShowcaseÂ’s all-new Canadian original TV comedy series The Drunk and on Drugs Happy Funtime Hour, starring Mike Smith, Robb Wells and JP Tremblay (Trailer Park Boys), started production May 26, 2010 in Halifax, Nova Scotia.The 6-episode, half-hour series, attempts to build on the popularity of the stars of the Trailer Park Boys, who say the new show is inspired by Monty Python's Flying Circus and The League of Gentlemen."...Set in the sleepy fictional town of 'Port Cockerton', the series catches up with 'Mike', 'Robb' and 'JP' in the midst of shooting their new sketch-variety TV show called 'The Happy Funtime Hour'. Disastrously, an actor hired to play a wacky German scientist (Maury Chaykin) assumes the personality of his character after synthesizing a powerful and addictive hallucinogen derived from local berries. Chaos ensues in the town as the cast ingests the drugs and begins to believe they really are the characters they portray on the show Â– including deranged pirates, drug-addled playboys from a 1980's television show and a group of not-so-super superheroes..."The 3 Trailer Park Boys actors play a total of 24 characters throughout the new series, as well as write and produce, for director Ron Murphy (Being Erica) and producers Paul Pope, Louis Thomas.Aside from Chaykin, guest stars will include Jay Baruchel (Tropic Thunder), Pat Roach and John Dunsworth."The series is definitely a departure from our previous work," said Wells who played 'Ricky' on TPB. "But with bold characters and a storyline that pushes the envelope, Drunk and On Drugs still has a huge dose of our trademark humour that I think our fans expect from us."The Drunk and on Drugs Happy Funtime Hour is produced by Happy Funtime Productions 2007 Inc. in association with Canwest Broadcasting with the participation of the Canadian Media Fund, Film Nova Scotia and the Bell New Media Fund...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.shootfirst.ca/blog/2010/05/27/trailer-park-boys-return-drunk-and-on-drugs/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Angora Napkin Plays For Teletoon</title><link>http://www.shootfirst.ca/blog/2009/11/01/angora-napkin-plays-for-teletoon/</link> <comments>http://www.shootfirst.ca/blog/2009/11/01/angora-napkin-plays-for-teletoon/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sun, 01 Nov 2009 12:09:00 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>HNR - Hollywood North Report</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Film Industry Info]]></category> <category><![CDATA[film industry]]></category> <category><![CDATA[independent film industry]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Maritimes News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[new movie industry info]]></category> <category><![CDATA[new movie news]]></category><guid

All the sex, violence and innuendo are firmly in place.The pilot focuses on the 'bubble-gum pop' music trio, 'Angora Napkin', whose members, 'Beatrice', 'Molly' and 'Mallory' get themselves into deep  trouble, running into 'zombies' and other creatures of the 'macabre'.Angora Napkin will be available for streaming Oct. 30 to Nov. 5 on the Teletoon web site, targeting adults 18-34."Angora Napkin is a quirky show like nothing else out there," said Little. "I hope it resonates with both comic and animation fans."Click the images to enlarge and Sneak Peek the original opening for Angora Napkin...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.shootfirst.ca/blog/2009/11/01/angora-napkin-plays-for-teletoon/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
