BUCKET & SKINNER

Bucket and Skinner is a Disney show about two surfer dudes very much like Bill & Ted. I just noticed it but if you shorten the name it's BS. And that's pretty much what the show is about. Two dudes goofing off and just having fun.

I was cast as a parent who watches his kid in a karate studio. B&S are there to take lessons so they can kick ass and be cool. But the master is a little girl they know so they give her a hard time but still learn that it's not as easy as it looks.

Darrin Cooper was there and telling people again about the struggles of acting, how long he's been doing it and so on and so forth. I always like hearing him talk because he's not only doing it for himself, he also has a family. I don't know how he does it but he does.

The nice thing was that we actually got fed. It surprised me because a lot of shows have walk-away lunches, but not this one. Maybe it's a Disney thing? After the karate studio scene, we moved to a pier to watch some para-sailor drop in on someone. It was a relatively long-ish day since we started at 8:30AM and didn't wrap until a little after 8PM.
