Say “Hi” to Sci-Fi:

Glaff and Banna are Intergalactic Film-Location Scouts, disguised as dinosaurs in a misguided attempt to fit in on Earth. Now their spaceship has a broken Snap Drive. But that's okay, because Earth has plenty of great things to EXPLORE!

Glaff and Banna have only just arrived on Earth, and already they have had many adventures and met interesting Earthlings and aliens. Episodes are available, in Described Video for the visually impaired.

Glaff

Glaff appears as a Blue Ankylosaurus, seen here in his winter jacket-vest and considering the next move. He has black eyes the size of buttons, white horns on his head and back.

Glaff is a vetran Intergalactic Film-Location Scout for the Frake Fried Film Corp. He is also the Captain of the Star Fish—and the Mechanic. (Currently the Star Fish has a broken Snap Drive, which Glaff is determined to fix, so he can return home.) Glaff is from the planet Exxitriss, but is disguised as an Ankylosaurus, to better fit in on Earth. He blames Banna for telling him there were dinosaurs on Earth. “Brubula!”

Banna

Banna appears as a blue Gorgosaurus, seen here wearing his purple hoodie up on his head, and smilling with large white teeth, and button-sized black eyes.

Banna is from the Planet Exxitriss, but he loves to explore Planet Earth! Fresh out of school, he has a lot to learn about being an Intergalactic Film-Location Scout for the Frake Fried Film Corp. However, he has a fresh perspective, and he is happy and motivated because exploring is a big part of the job!

He can be seen wearing his favourite purple hoodie. While he looks like a Gorgosaurus, he is actually an alien from Exxitriss, disguised as an “Earth Dino” to blend in on Planet Earth. He didn’t realize that light particles from Earth had taken 65 Million years to reach his telescope. That’s much slower than the Star Fish can travel, using it’s amazing Snap Drive technology! “Sorry, Glaff!”

Frake Fried

Frake Fried is a famous movie producer, CEO of Frake Fried Intergalactic Film Corporation, and also Glaff and Banna’s Boss. He lives in a posh condominium on Planet Exxitriss, and is responsible for some of the biggest blockbuster films in the galaxy!

Brainer

Singing, Dancing, and throw in a little magic…Brainer the Entertainer does it all! He climbed aboard the Star Fish after a stellar performance at a spacedock on Mooey-Taurus and fell asleep.

He works out his act inside Glaff’s splorch box, so that one day he can dazzle new audiences here on Earth. Glaff may not be so easily impressed, but at least Banna is crying “Encore! Encore!”

  • Doofie Doo

    Doofie Doo is the beloved pet of Ken Tappin, but while Ken is on the road, Glaff and Banna will need to look after her. Banna loves to have Doofie Doo around, even though sometimes he gets into trouble.

  • Ken Tappin

    “I’m Ken Tappin, and I make things happen.” Ken first approached Banna at a Toronto dance club, and offered him a chance to be a reality television star. He has many connections and business dealings, and he chases opportunities, as fast as he chases his beloved dog, Doofie Doo.

  • Callam at the Bakery

    Callam

    Callam has proved to be a brave and helpful friend to Glaff and Banna. Glaff recruited him to help search for Banna at Casa Loma. Callam knows his way around Toronto, and is willing to lend a hand. All he asks in return is some company…on the rides! You see Callam loves to go on the highest, fastest, scariest roller-coasters!

  • The Best Detective

    Howard Best, P.I.

    He is called the “Best Detective” not only because his name is Best, but also because he has a reputation for following the clues, and solving the most challenging cases. Glaff and Banna hired Detective Best for a perplexing case, involving a pet owner’s disappearance. Bring on the mystery; bring on the the action; bring on the Manchego Cheese!

  • Bert Winkler

    Bert Winkler

    For the owner of Winkler’s Sandwich Shop, lunchtime should be an experience! Howard Best can attest that Winker makes the best sandwiches. Bert Winkler loves the Pepper Woman—a world-famous pop band, known for their hit pop song, Pepper Night. Bert Winkler loves to dance to Pepper Woman music while making sandwiches. “Turn down the music? No can do.”

  • Janne Reading a book

    Janne

    Janne is a server at Glaff and Banna’s favourite Italian restaurant, where she serves them baskets and baskets of Garlic Bread. She doesn’t always love her job, but the customers think she is fantastic because she is a great listener. in her free time, she enjoys reading, studying science, and attending magical parties—Glaff is sure he saw her dressed as a witch at Brainer’s Party.
