A hidden camera, a sense of humor and the help of Hollywood's top
special effects artists are all kids and their families need to pull the
ultimate good-natured prank on their unsuspecting mom or dad in "Code:
9," a new hidden camera reality series that's comedy for the whole
family, premiering THURSDAY, JULY 26 (8:00 - 8:30 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney
Channel.
Hosted by Wes Dening ("The Stafford
Brothers"), the unscripted comedy series pairs kids with a parent to
help create, plan and cast the entire prank. In every episode, one
family member goes deep undercover with special prosthetic make-up and
costumes and goes face-to-face with their unsuspecting parent as one of
the actors who helps pull off the big surprise. The signal "code 9",
indicates the start of the prank when the target is walking in and
everyone needs to be in their places and ready.
In
the premiere episode, the Tribble family wants to prank dad who they
think loves golf and his clubs a little too much. With the help of
"Code: 9" host, Wes, and a Hollywood special effects and design team,
mom and the kids plan it out then sit back and watch as dad takes the
heat for a golf cart mishap that involves his clubs.
"Code:
9" is executive-produced by Mark Herwick ("Launch My Line," "Kitchen
Nightmares"), Douglas Ross ("Big Brother"), Gregory Stewart, Kathleen
French and Alex Baskin and was created and directed by Herwick. The
reality series is a production of Evolution Media ("The Real Housewives
of Orange County"). It carries a TV-G parental guideline.
