Re: Time to Get a New Stephanie?

An 11 year old with a Mezzo Soprano voice LOL, so Jackie Evancho will be playing Stephanie then.

Also "She is very much a little girl with no hint of adolescence about her" made me laugh out loud.

ooo! I just noticed! "Robbie Rotten (Stefán Karl Stefánsson)" they wouldn't mention his name if he wasn't back on board, surely

Re: Time to Get a New Stephanie?

It is Sportacus' job to inspire the kids to play outside

I have a bone to pick with that. In the very first episode, Welcome to Lazytown, when Stephanie arrives the town
was pretty much overrun with weeds especially around the airmail contraption and all the kids were inside playing
video games. Stephanie was the one who inspired the kids to go outside and begin to do something. Until Robbie came
along and bribed them all to go back inside. It was stephanie that cleared to weeds off the airmail to call sportacus.

The question is where was sportacus all this time to allow this to happen to the town and the kids?

Oh you.

Not sure if anyone read the presentation synopsis, but there us quite a bit of key info in there which I have bolded.

LazyTown is a BAFTA winning, Emmy nominated children's television program that is produced in Iceland with a cast and crew from Iceland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It was created by Magnús Scheving, a gymnastics champion and CEO of LazyTown Entertainment, who also stars in the show. The show has been highly successful, airing in over 100 countries, in 128 markets, in more than a dozen languages. A total of 52 episodes of LazyTown have been produced to date. 13 new episodes are being produced starting in April 2012, with an additional 13 planned for the following year. The lead role of Stephanie is being re-cast for these new episodes.

The main character of LazyTown is Stephanie, who arrives in town and urges her new friends (Ziggy, Trixie, Stingy, and Pixel) to go outside and be active. Her uncle, the bumbling Mayor Milford Meanswell, enlists the help of Sportacus 10 (Magnús Scheving), a self-described "slightly-above-average hero". It is Sportacus' job to inspire the kids to play outside, and to help solve low-key emergencies that occur from time to time. However, all this does not sit well with Robbie Rotten (Stefán Karl Stefánsson), a lazy man who lives in an underground lair hidden just on the edge of town. Most of the episodes involve Robbie Rotten dressing up in one of his numerous costumes and trying to make Sportacus and Stephanie leave town forever so he can encourage the kids to be lazy again. Many girls around the world want to be the iconic Stephanie. In this new version of LazyTown, Stephanie is a stronger character and is more in the forefront of the show.

Re: Time to Get a New Stephanie?

this little girl should be essentially a Julianna clone..

Looks like she's going to be one, with the 'ideal' actress characteristics and all that.

btw. 2.600 bucks per episode sounds not much compared to what JR got

How did you know JRM'S pay rate?

Re: Time to Get a New Stephanie?

$33,800 for spending a few months dancing around in front of a green screen and enjoying a lifetime of being harassed by 4chan?

Sounds like a deal.

Re: Time to Get a New Stephanie?

Also, what the hell kind of name for a girl character is "Bean"?

Because she's on Sprout.

That combination is awful
