888 Toronto YouTube meet

Hey Chris, I hope people remember YCDTOTV. it was a great show that built to national networks, Nickelodeon and YTV. And it was made in Canada. Way back when Roger Price offered me a job writing the show but by the time I moved to Ottawa the show was canceled. So we are keeping the show alive and it's just a lot of fun to make.

When was it cancelled? I watched it on Nickelodeon around the mid to late 80s I think. Like maybe from about 1986-1989. In fact, "You Can't Do That On Television" was probably what really got Nickelodeon started. I remember when they had commercials for Nick as "the first network for kids" and they had whole themes built around YCDTOTV, like going to the stuidios and "getting slimed". LOL...when I was a kid, I did want to meet a few of the actors.

Yes the show ran in Canada from 1979 to 1987 then Nick picked it up around 1983/83 then canceled the order for the next season April 1987. Then it was back by popular demand from 1988 to 1990 then it was all reruns.

You should see if Roger Price would let you remake "you can't do that on television". Do you sell dvd's of YCDTOYT??

I haven't talked with him since 1987. But I will ask him if I happen to find out how to get a hold of him. The last I heard 1991 he was living in Malta writing film scripts.

Hello Nick, I will be sure to go next year.
