Four on the Floor TV Series

Opening Title Graphic

After finishing the CBC radio series, The Frantics decided to bring their comic madness to television. The result was "Four on the Floor" which ran for a single season comprised of 13 episodes, originally broadcast on CBC television in 1986. It was a co-production of the CBC and Telefilm Canada.

The TV series contained a lot of new material plus a lot of the best sketches the Frantics had done on their radio series. It also brought to life such long-running characters from the radio series such as Mr. Canoehead, Quenelle and Mary, the Evil Ultramind and many more.

The following pictures feature some highlights from the series.
