Crash Canyon
Crash Canyon is a Canadian adult animated sitcom which premiered on Teletoon at Night in Canada and was distributed globally by MTV. The show was first premiered on September 18, 2011 with the final episode aired on March 3, 2013. Plot. It told the story of the community living at the bottom of a canyon. The Wendell family was looking for an original holiday by caravan but their trip ends sooner than expected at the bottom of a canyon in Alberta, Canada. The canyon walls are too high to climb and there is no way out. Soon they  find out there is a whole community of 29 or 30 survivors from previous crashes down there. Dollars are not accepted and they use golf tees as a currency. Development. "Crash Canyon" premiered on September 18, 2011. Joel Cohen, a Canadian expatriate living in Los Angeles while writing for "The Simpsons", explained that creating an animated Canadian show with fellow expatriates would allow to write "jokes only hosers would get". He recruited ex-Canadian writers Tim Long of "The Simpsons" and Chuck Tatham of "How I Met Your Mother" to write scripts for the series. Co-producer and story editor  Greg Lawrence explained that they have tried not to put too much emphasis on the family trying to escape the canyon. "It's not "Gilligan's Island" where every episode is: 'This week we're getting off the island.' But we do keep the sentiment alive, so as you move through the series there are attempts to get out and all fail." In 2013, Teletoon released a press statement to Bubbleblabber stating that the network will not be moving forward with a 3rd season of the series. "Unfortunately a 3rd season of Crash Canyon is not in our plans at  this time." The show ended on March 3, 2013. Characters. Butanes.
