Overview

The Yard is a Canadian mockumentary comedy series that originally aired on HBO Canada in 2011. Set in a schoolyard, the series depicts the interactions of two rival gangs of elementary school students, with the plot of each episode serving as a parody of an adult-oriented crime drama series such as The Sopranos or The Wire. In the United States, it is available for online streaming exclusively on Hulu in both "censored" and "uncensored" versions and for 1080p HD digital download on the iTunes Store. Cast The Good Guys Nick - played by Quintin Colantoni, the eleven-year-old Capo of The Yard, quintessentially cool and a hard-nosed realist, he is also an astute reader of human nature. He is wise beyond his years, and is loyal and fair to his lieutenants. He is self-assured and possesses an easy charm. Johnny - played by Shemar Charles, Nick's oldest friend, going back to Kindergarten. He thinks he has magical powers but his tricks only work some of the time. He's trying to become a great magician. He is a pervert, sniffing girls hair, spying on them in the bathroom, and is hoping for a girlfriend to be an assistant. Suzi - played by Keana Bastidas, Nick's enforcer. Being a girl, she can hit both boys (without fear of retribution) and girls, and she is the toughest kid in the yard. She is a bed wetter and is given a dollar for every night she doesn't wet the bed, one month she made $12. Suzi hates Mary because she urinated into Mary's sleeping bag at a sleep-over thus causing Mary to tell others about Suzi's bed wetting. J.J. - played by Alex Cardillo, the second smartest kid in school and the brains of Nick's outfit. He became a vegetarian after reading Charlotte's Web. He won 2nd place at the Science fair. He also has a crush on The Mole, Beth. He is Nick's brother. Adam - played by Devan Cohen, Nick’s youngest brother. He’s just a little kid who wants to play. The Bad Guys Frankie Miladic - played by Daniel Lupetina. His big brother Drago ran the yard last year, before leaving for middle school. Believes Nick has stolen his birthright. Mickey Dos Santos - played by Daryn Karp, one of Frankie's Gang. Pork Chop's younger brother. Shorter and none too bright; but what he lacks in intelligence, he makes up for in terrible flatulence. "Pork Chop" - played by Jared Karp, a big, overgrown kid, some of it muscle but much of it fat, who acts as Frankie's "enforcer."
