Junk Raiders

2009
Junk Raiders is a 2009 Canadian reality television series that airs on The Discovery Channel and ION Life. The series follows the titular Junk Raiders, a team of seven professionals as they attempt to renovate an old steel factory in downtown Toronto and turn it into a high-end loft in one month with only a C$5500 budget. Because of the extremely limited budget, many of the materials needed must be found by freecycling: finding something unwanted for free and reusing it. For the production of the series, the team had commissioned a "junk hot-line", urging Torontonians to donate any garbage that they could use. In addition, as looking through other peoples' trash is illegal in Toronto, the show also has a special exemption that allows the team to do just that.

Spongo, Fuzz And Jalapeña

2019
Welcome to Champignon, a town of wacky world championships every day. From the Shopping Trolley with One Wonky Wheel races to the Flat Pack Furniture Assembly World Championships, our three heroes Spongo, Fuzz and Jalapeña are always up to something completely bonkers. Spongo is a 15-year-old adrenaline-junkie who would rather lose in a spectacular way than take an easy win. Fuzz counteracts him - he'd prefer to sit and meticulously plan out exactly how they'll take home gold. Jalapeña is an aspiring chef and a junk-tech genius with a mad-inventor spark. Trying to thwart their every move is the villainous spoiled rich kid Taylor la Strange, and her cousin sidekick, Dangles. Taylor is a clever engineer, and always has Dangles to do her bidding, often with hilarious results. Every episode brings a mad new adventure, with Spongo, Fuzz and Jalapeña taking on a new world championship and embarking on anarchic, surreal and tasty adventures.
