Welcome to Sunnyside, the not-so-typical neighbourhood where anything can happen, and almost always does.
Nominated for 5 Canadian Screen Awards!
From hipsters and yoga moms to meth addicts and romantic crooks, Sunnyside is a quirky neighbourhood in transition, where residents aren’t always what they seem and surprises lurk around every slightly dingy corner. Book clubs and coffee shops are just steps away from speakeasies and an underground baby-fighting ring. Plus, this odd little world has just a touch of magic in it, including an occult store that can alter reality, a superhero shopping cart that comes to the rescue, and a mysterious manhole that can answer residents’ burning questions.
“A sharp little satire of contemporary urban life”
—John Doyle, The Globe and Mail
“I love Sunnyside. It’s one of the best shows this year”
—Tony Wong, The Toronto Star
