''[['''Radio Active]]''''' was a Canadian TV show that aired from 1998 - 2001, based on Quebec French series ''Radio Enfer''. The premise was simple: a group of students at Upper Redwood High School manage and run their own school radio station, entitled ''Radio Active''. [[Hilarity Ensues|Chaos frequently ensued]] as the group worked to avoid and undermine the sneaky teacher-supervisor Ms. Noelle [[Meaningful Name|Atoll]], who always believes (usually rightly) that they're up to something.
 
The original cast of characters consisted of students George S. Goodwin III, Tanya Panda, Morgan Leigh, Kevin Calvin and Ethan St. John. In 1999, Kevin and Ethan were [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute|replaced by]] Blair Resnicky and Roger Richards, who remained for the remainder of the show. The students were joined by supervisor Ms. Atoll and incompetent vice principal Mr. Noseworthy, and occasionally joined by Morgan's annoying younger sister, Sarah.
