QUESTIONS
What television shows did you watch when you were a kid?
Oh, I was the biggest SHE-RA fan out there. I think I was her for 3 Halloweens in a row. 321 Contact (Mathnet), Fraggle Rock, Sesame Street

What is your favorite Hi-5 song or segment?
Feel the Beat (new one coming soon), Ready or Not (Hide Your Eyes). My favorite segment that has been shown already is when Chats and I are pretending to be Meerkats.

Have you seen the Australian Hi-5?
Oh yeah, we used to watch them every morning if we weren't busy in rehearsal. They rock!

Have you met the original Hi-5 cast?
We all get along great! We went to see their stage show and have had many a get together with them. They are really friendly and wonderfully talented.

What was it like taping the show with the kids?
The kids make this show!! They are so energetic and so eager it is contagious! And most of the time, they are better at the dances than we are. :)

What do you think of Australia?
Australia is the most beautiful place I have been! I wish it wasn't so far away, I would consider moving there!!! Awesome Beaches!

What is next for Hi-5? a tour? cd?
All of the above. This fall we will be touring all over and a CD and DVD have been finished. I think they're scheduled to start coming out in the new year but I'm not sure.

MESSAGE TO HI-5 VIEWERS
This show is so special to us and your support means so much! We couldn't do it without you!!!!! Hope to see you this fall in your neck of the woods.
