Remember when YTV was full of the most hilarious, entertaining and chewing gum based personalities? They were called PJs and we loved them all. Sadly, most are now long dead but let’s check in and see which of your favourite non-threatening tween demo appropriate PJs are still breathing!
Snit!
As we all know this lovable cybernetic piece of chewing gum battled a terrible heroin addiction and was found half dead in a closet due to autoerotic asphyxiation. Since then Snit has become a staunch advocate for the Trans-gum community travelling the country as a motivational speaker.
Tarzan Dan
Currently the oldest living PJ at 102, Tarzan Dan or as he’s now called Tarzan Lipowitz, spends most of his time encased in a hyperbaric chamber far underneath the Corus building in downtown Toronto.
PJ Katie
One of the most dangerous people on the planet PJ Katie fell into the world of geo-espionage and is recorded to have 45 confirmed kills. She is currently being held hostage deep in the jungles of Myanmar.
PJ Phil
Phil invested heavily in the comic book market, losing everything in the crash of 2000. He then formed the Church of Phil and now has a congregation of over 50,000 devotees. His net worth is between 50 to 100 million dollars.
Who could forget the shrill high-pitched sound of this afternoon delight? Turns out, everyone. After YTV, Suga BayBee was ignored by her friends and loved ones due to her terribly annoying voice. Eventually her physical form began to disappear, similar to that Buffy episode where that loser kid goes invisible. She is currently being studied by medical students at McGill University.
Daryn Jones
Some say that fame went to Darren Jones’ head. Actually it was an acute case of Gigantism. He now lives in an assisted living facility in his parent’s basement.
Shaun Majumder
Shaun has gone on to many other Film and TV series like Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, 24, and This Hour has 22 Minutes. Wait, sorry. Our bad, he’s been dead for the last 12 years.
