It's after hours at the department store, and you know what that means? It's time for Jodie the display manager, Sam the security guard and Muffy the Mouse to bring Jeff, the store mannequin, to life! We explore the origins of Today's Special, how it was born from a once-in-a-lifetime deal between TVOntario and Roger's Cable, and just what made it tick. You can find interviews of series creator Clive VanderBurgh, puppet builder Noreen Young, and puppeteers Bob Dermer (Sam) and Nina Keogh (Muffy), as well as interviews with a number of TVOntario talents on Travis Doucette's Youtube Channel! https://www.youtube.com/user/travisdoucettemusic You can support the Pop Arena on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/pop_arena Tip Jar https://thepoparena.com/2012/08/10/how-to-donate-request-videos Pop Arena on Twitter! - https://twitter.com/pop_arena/ Pop Arena on Tumblr! - http://thepoparena.tumblr.com/ Pop Arena on Reddit! - https://www.reddit.com/r/poparena/ Pop Arena on Discord! - https://discordapp.com/invite/C35kp32 Like/Share/Subscribe FRIENDS OF POP ARENA ++++++++++++++++++++ Check out Andrew Hicks' Youtube channel! https://www.youtube.com/user/sycoraxrock Check out Agoaj's game "Hamster Drop" here! http://www.skylancestudio.com/hamsterdrop/ Check out Sean Dillon's writings here! https://thekinginredandblue.blogspot.com/ Check out The Genie's Library's webnovel "Heart Song" here! https://www.royalroadl.com/fiction/18041/heart-song-ballad-of-the-ambassador Follow author Alanna McFall's publications and upcoming performances at alannamcfall.wordpress.com.
