Skatoony (SKAToonY) is a children's quiz show, pitting live-action kids against cartoons. The show is co-produced with Talent Television (for the UK version), Blink Studios (for the Arabic Version),[2][3] Marblemedia, Teletoon Productions, and Smiley Guy Studios (for the Canada-USA version), and is used to air on Cartoon Network in the UK. It is hosted by 'Chudd Chudders' (voiced by Rupert Degas in the UK and Jonathan Wilson in the US) and 'The Earl' (voiced by Lewis MacLeod).
History
In 2001, Skatoony began as a competition microsite on the Cartoon Network UK website. In 2006, then appeared the first full length Skatoony TV show. However, a few phone-in shows such as Skatoony Quizmas, Ready Steady Skatoony and Skatoony Truckatoony existed before as a sort of continuity during school holidays. These phone-in shows ended in 2005.
On February 9, 2009, Marblemedia announced they would be producing a North American version of the series Skatoony (in French and English) for].[4] The Canadian adaptation, titled Skatoony North America to differentiate it from other adaptations follows the same format. The English version of Skatoony is filmed in Toronto, while the French version is filmed in Montreal with a different set of contestants; however, the outcome of the animated contestants remains the same between both versions. Jonathan Wilson voices Chudd Chudders while James Rankin provides the voice of The Earl, and new addition to the North American release, Charles La Puck, is voiced by Jeff Lumby. A Middle Eastern adaptation of Skatoony debuted on April 5, 2011 on Cartoon Network Arabic.[5][6]
Teletoon Sesame Workshop Big Idea Entertainment Nelvana Treehouse TV In addition to the British format, one contestant in each episode of Skatoony North America will be a guest contestant from a show from a Teletoon Original Series. Accordingly, a significant figure from the series will also be seen in the Skatoony opening sequence. Other children's series (including but not limited to shows on the Teletoon lineup) are often the subject of the questions asked on the shows. Guest contestants are taken from the following series:
Series | Seasons | Notes |
---|---|---|
Total Drama | 1-2 | Contestants for Season 1 are characters exclusively from Total Drama Island and '. Contestants for Season 2 are characters exclusively from Total Drama: Revenge of the Island. Chris McLean appears in the opening sequence, and Sierra appears in the Skatoony audience in each episode, even when there is no guest. |
' | 2[7] | Jimmy Two-Shoes does not air on Cartoon Network in the US, though it does air on Cartoon Network in other regions.This does however air on Disney XD. Heloise is seen in this trailer.|- |
As Total Drama itself is an animated reality series, it's to be noted that the contestant standings on Total Drama has no standing on which Total Drama series character will appear in each new episode. All guest contestants are voiced by the voice actors from their respective series.
Guest contestant replacement
In Skatoony, the quizblock has 6 colored squares - green, red, pink, purple, blue and yellow. The children get the green, pink and blue squares [occasionally they get purple and red squares], and the cartoon contestants get the red, yellow and purple. The guest contestants take the place of a cartoon character from the UK version. In the episode 'Skeleton Crew In Da House' in NA, Scabz was originally a contestant but he left before the 1st round and was replaced by Harold.

Format
The show's format is that three child contestants and three cartoon character contestants, making 6 contestants in all, compete in a quiz show lasting three rounds. After the first two rounds, the two lowest scoring contestants are eliminated. The first round is always Bang On! Or Bogus?, a rapid-fire true-or-false questioning round; with "Bang on!" meaning true, and "Bogus!" meaning false. The last two rounds vary between episodes. As contestants are eliminated, they are usually catapulted out of their seats as the hosts [and the remaining sing "You're Outta Here!". And the losing contestants are catapulted into a factory containing a nasty thing like 'Compost World' or 'Leftover School Dinners Dump' or 'Used Nappy Dump' or 'Concrete Pillow Factory', and then they are [sometimes] not seen for the remainder of the episode. Vignettes featuring eliminated animated contestants (and on occasion, eliminated child contestants) interacting with Chudd or the Earl (as well, on Skatoony North America, Charles la Puck, their boss [Tony Eagle-Eyes in the UK]) also appear during the progression of the show; in Skatoony North America, this extends to the web extras available on the Skatoony website. The first round always ends with having one live-kid and a cartoon contestant being eliminated.
At the end of three rounds, the remaining contestant takes on the Skatoony Quiz Champ Challenge, where they must answer ten questions correctly in 90 seconds. After 45 seconds, the clock will temporarily stop, and Earl's Halfway Deal will be offered, trading in time for correct answers (10 seconds per point to raise the contestant to a maximum of 7 points or 25 seconds for three points if fewer than five questions have been answered correctly at that point; the clock will stop briefly without a deal offered if the player already has at least 8 points. A contestant will be offered 1 point for 10 seconds if the player has exactly 7 points.). If the contestant finishes with time remaining and get ten questions right, the contestant wins a prize, offered at the start of each episode. If a contestant finishes with the ten correct answers in under 45 seconds, they are further honoured with being called "#1 Skatoony Quiz Champ Champion".
Note that the games used in each round and the contestants' interactions are based on the number of child contestants remaining, and that the game always ensures that a child contestant will always be the last remaining contestant. Sometimes, for the third round, it can be either 1 child vs 1 toon, or 2 children vs each other. In addition, it is typical for the second-round challenge to be rigged against an animated contestant, leading to their elimination as well.
In Skatoony North America, the prize for winning the Skatoony Quiz Champ Challenge in the first season is an iPod touch; later seasons have refused to disclose the grand prize. Other merchandise from Teletoon shows are also awarded to the contestants for their participation.
In the UK version, the Prizes were like this:
- Season 1: A Sony PSP [on two episodes it was a video iPod]
- Season 2: A Nintendo Wii
- Season 3: An iPod Touch [on two episodes it was a Nintendo DS]
Rounds
Beyond Bang On! Or Bogus? (used in the first round) and the Skatoony Quiz Champ Challenge (when one contestant remains), the following challenges have been used:
Round 2 challenges
- Same Sound Name Round (Season 1 [NA and UK]) - Each contestant is given three placards, each depicting a picture corresponding to a particular word, with all three words rhyme with each other. Chudd's questions this round will have an answer that will either match or have the same pronunciation as one of these three placards. Contestants are only awarded points for presenting the correct placard: giving the correct answer verbally while presenting the wrong placard does not award points.
- Wear in the World? (Season 1 [NA and UK]) - Each contestant is given three hats, representing three countries. All of Chudd's questions this round have answers corresponding to one of these three countries, and contestants must wear the correct hat in order to be awarded points. Giving the correct answer verbally while wearing the wrong hat [or not wearing the hat at all] does not award points.
- Draw What You Hear, and Shout Out When You Know What You've Drawn! - Chudd will use words to describe what it is to be drawn, and contestants must infer what is being drawn from Chudd's instructions. Chudd will continue with the description until one contestant answers correctly.
- Alphabet Soup (Season 2 [UK and NA]) - Each contestant is given four of alphabet symbols embedded in a liquid. Chudd's questions with have answers that begin with or rhyme with one of the letters of the alphabet. Contestants are only awarded points for presenting the correct letter of the alphabet; giving the correct answer verbally whilst holding the wrong letter does not award points. It was only played once in Season 2; in the episode 'Body Swap'.
- Colourful Language (Season 2 [NA] and Season 3 [UK]) - Each contestant has 4 boxes in front of them, each with a different colour. Chudd's Questions will be about the colours written on the box. They have to give the colour written on the box, not the one coloured. It was only played once in the UK version of Season 3; in the episode 'Skatoony: The Musical'.
- Throw If You Know (Season 2 [UK and NA] and Season 3 [UK]) - Each Contestant wears a big round hat with 3 balls, each with a different type, Chudd's questions will be about them. If they get it right, they have to throw the correct ball to Chudd. In the UK Season 3 episode 'Rollercoaster', the balls were replaced with moons, stars and red balls [planets].
- Blindfold Buffet (Season 2 [UK and NA]) - In front of the contestants are 5 different foods/animals, which are answers to the questions that are answered. They have to pick up a handful of the right answer, then buzz in. However, all the contestants are blindfolded, so that they can't see the food in front of them. Contestants are only awarded points for presenting the correct food; giving the correct answer verbally whilst holding the wrong food does not award points. This round is never played in the Skatoony studio; it was played in space and in the ocean.
- Cheery Tunes (Season 2 [UK and NA]) - Each conteastant has to hear the tune that Earl is playing. it is only played in the episode 'Preschool Problem'.
- Goldie Pops' Deeply Dipping Game (Season 2 [UK and NA]): Goldie Pops' personal game, which was only played in the episode 'Stop The Pop'. Similar to Same Sound Name Round, except the 3 rhyming answers are in tanks of yucky sludge, and the contestants must pick the answers up with their teeth, like apple bobbing. It was called 'Goldie Pops' Same Sound Name Round' in NA.
- Colour Me Quizzy (Season 2 [NA and UK] and Season 3 [UK])- The contestants have 3 boxes of coloured paint in front of them. They have to dip their face in the correct colour, then hit their buzzer. Contestants are only awarded points for the correct colour that's on their face; giving the correct answer verbally whilst the wrong colour paint is on their face does not award points. The children contestants wear goggles to protect their eyes. In the Season 3 episode 'Cafe le Quiz', they substituted the paint for mustard [yellow], brown sauce [brown], and mushy peas [green].
- *Quick Pic Picking! (Season 2 [NA & UK]
- *Animal Swap -A- Butt (Season 2 [NA]) (Season 3 [UK])
Round 3 challenges
- Hoo Flung Dung! - In this round, Hoo, the "artistic gorilla", will throw his "paint" (though claimed to be dung by the round's title, on other occasions it is implied to be ordinary mud) onto a canvas. The "paint" will form into a particular shape, which the contestants must identify. A particular feature of this challenge is the fact that some of the "paint" is splattered on the contestants.
- DangerBox - Presented in front of each contestants are three boxes, each of which contains a particular type of food, be it something nice [like candyfloss] or nasty [like insects]. Contestants must open a box and eat its contents BEFORE giving the answer to each question Chudd asks. Contestants may not pick a box more than once.
- Fast Food - The contestants compete head to head in a speed quizzing challenge. Each contestant will have as much time as it takes for the other to consume a specified quantity of food.
- Egg Noggin! - Presented in front of each contestant is a row of eggs, some of which are raw and some of which are hard-boiled. The two contestants must listen to the general knowledge questions, and then buzz in when they know the answer. Contestants are awarded one point for each correct answer. Regardless of whether the contestant answers correctly or not, contestants must then select an egg and break it against their forehead. A bonus point is awarded if the egg chosen is hard-boiled, but if it is raw, the egg yolk will go all over their face! Enough eggs are provided so that neither contestant runs out of eggs.
- The DangerGrid of Doom (Season 2 [UK and NA] and Season 3 [UK]) - The DangerGrid of Doom is a huge robot with a panel of 12 numbers, each containing a nasty surprise such as drenching the contestant in various yucky goo or a deduction of points. Contestants answering correctly may choose one panel from the grid as a nasty surprise to unleash on their opponent. Conversely, contestants answering incorrectly are subject to a nasty surprise chosen by their opponent from the grid. In the UK season 3 episode 'Robot Rampage', The Dangergrid of Doom was the new host/main antagonist of the episode, but his round was never played.
- Viking Flung Dung! (Season 2 [UK and NA]) - Same rules as Hoo Flung Dung, but only played in the episode 'Vikings'.
- Stinky Drinky (Season 2 [NA and UK] and Season 3 [UK])- Contestants have to answer general knowledge questions. If you get it right, your opponent has to drink one of the yucky drinks lined up in front of them. But get the question wrong, and you have to drink one! In the UK Season 2 episode 'In the Belly of the Boss', a girl named Lozzie got the highest score in this game; 7 points, mostly due to her opponent, Wilf, refusing to drink any of his drinks. Just like Blindfold Buffet, this round is never played in the studio; it was played in a spooky cave, inside their boss' stomach, and out in the desert in the middle of nowhere.
Other challenges
The following challenges have only been seen in the original British series, and have not made their debuts in Skatoony North America.

- Blinking Brain Box (Season 3)
- Mincepie Roulette (Season 2 and Season 3): Contestants have to answer general knowledge questions. If you get it right, your opponent has to eat one of the mince pies lined up in front of them.
