Does anyone know where I could get a copy of this taping? My brother Ricky and I were in the blue car and I have been searching for this, high and low! Even to the point where I tracked down Kyla and Karla to see if they had it!! I would be forever grateful!!

Hey! My little sister and I were contestants on this show (green car)! :) Do you want to know why everyone clapped with their hands over their head? It was because if we didn't, we might accidentally hit the microphone. And we were told that if we hit the microphone, the big, bad sound guy would NOT be happy with us! I was terrified of hitting that mic! LOL!
lol I always wondered about the clapping thing! You're so lucky you got to be on there, I wanted to be on the show so badly when I was a kid but they were all brother and sister teams and I'm an only child! :D
I thought about being on to but my brother was in his mid teens, then I saw one ep with a kid and his or her older brother in his mid teens(had a mustache and everything). So I thought it be great to have my brother and I be contestants but I would think to myself "My brother is an ass, he'd probably walk off in the middle of taping, clap in the mic to piss off the soundman and tell Kevin Franks to go F himself".LOL
Yup, do I remember this. And when I mentioned this show to my brother, as a vague memory, the one thing I mentioned to him was the clapping over the heads. He didn't remember it but I did.
wow i used to luv that show, im 25 now. Gee, looked so much cooler back then. What was the hosts name again ? Kevin Frank ? if so, i dont know how or why i remember that
One thing that no one would forget about this show is the clapping over the heads!! Hahahaha, thanks for posting this. Our grade 6 class went to a taping of this show . . . man what a letdown!
Because they filmed the show 3 times in a row with the same 6 kids (2 from my school at the time). We had to sit there for hours (an entire afternoon), watching the same show be taped as we clapped along, although we knew the results of the show and we knew what answers the kids were going to give. They also promised each audience member a pack of gum, which we didn't get. The fact that I remember this is sad, so it must have traumatized me or something. LOL.
Wait! Did they tape 3 episodes with the same contestants, and then choose the best one to use for air? It also sounds like the show was rigged in some way... I guess that's Canadian TV...
LOL. Yes, 3 episodes with the same contestants, and they chose the best one to air (or perhaps edited it with the best segments or something), but the outcome was the same for all 3 episodes and the kids had to give the same answers for all 3 episodes.
It's our fault for watching Canadian TV anyway, I guess.
Wow, I remember that show.. ah childhood

Yeah Kevin Frank did mostly commercials. The only other show he was a regular on was the Red Green Show with Steve Smith and Patrick McKenna.

I remember watching this on MITV around the same time - before Canwest-Global swallowed up most Canadian indie stations.
