Skatoony

Skatoony (stylized as SkatoonY) is a children's live-action animated game show, pitting live-action children against cartoon characters. The series was co-produced by Talent TV and FremantleMedia Animation (for the British version), Blink Studios (for the Arabic version), and Marblemedia with Smiley Guy Studios (for the North American version). The series aired on Cartoon Network UK in 2006, with new episodes airing every Friday until the series' cancellation in 2008. Reruns continued to air on Cartoon Network until 2017. Skatoony has also aired as reruns in the UK on Boomerang and Cartoon Network Too until the channel itself closed down in 2014. The show aired on Starz Kids & Family in the U.S. until 2019. Reruns were occasionally shown on Teletoon in Canada until August 5, 2017. It also aired on Boomerang in Australia and New Zealand.

The show is hosted by 'Chudd Chudders' (voiced by Rupert Degas in the UK and Jonathan Wilson in North America) and 'The Earl' (voiced by Lewis MacLeod in the UK and James Rankin in North America). In the UK version, Chudd and Earl have American-Canadian accents sounding similar to themselves in the North American version.
