About Steve Smith Playhouse
Steve Smith Playhouse is a Canadian English language television series produced by S&S Productions that debuted in 2004. The series consists of 13 half hour episodes starring Canadian actor and comedian Steve Smith. In each episode Smith takes one specific B-movie from the 1950s or 1960s, condenses them to a half hour and uses his voice to replace that of the lead character, while all the other characters’ performances remain untouched, often changing the plot and tone of the original movie.
