''KidZone'' is a Canadian TV show for adolescents that aired on Knowledge in British Columbia from 1989 to 2001. The show is also notable for providing a start for several young stars, including Sarah Chalke, Devon Sawa, Erica Cerra, Jai West, Kea Wong and Taheer Mohamed. ''KidZone'' initially began as a series of informative skits and interviews. Following the education mandate of the broadcaster, the show managed to present anti-smoking, safety and environmental issues with funding from provincial government agencies and private companies. The entire cast of the show were children, who acted in various sketches and portrayed journalists. At the age of 12, Chalke was the program's environmental reporter. One of the recurring sketches on ''KidZone'' was ''Kerrisdale V6M 1Z6'', which used a style similar to ''Beverly Hills, 90210'' and ''Degrassi Junior High'' to present youth issues. Eventually, ''KidZone'' shifted away from its journalistic style and became a docudrama about high school based on the ''Kerrisdale'' sketch. This version of the show also aired in the United States as ''Kerrisdale High''. At the end of its broadcast run in 2001, ''KidZone'' was rebranded as ''KidZone Live''. Much like ''Degrassi Talks'', the show featured ''KidZone'' actors participating in sketches and call-in discussions on topics oriented toward young viewers. Among the issues covered on ''KidZone Live'' were injury prevention, road safety and eliminating racial discrimination. ==External links== * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KidZone」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
