BY THE RAPIDS is a primetime-animated comedy that takes a satirical look at what happens when a thoroughly urban and pampered family relocates from Toronto to the rural Aboriginal community where the successful lawyer parents were born and raised. Despite the parents' roots in By The Rapids, the family has still found it tough to reintegrate themselves back into the community without sticking out like sore thumbs. With the help of Grandma Hazel, Cousin Karen, Uncle Regis and Karen's boyfriend Derek, their adjustments to life in the community of By The Rapids will be a bit smoother - or so they think. Without lattes, pilates or a decent internet connection, the urbane Littlehorns find plenty wrong with By The Rapids but are hell bent on bringing some of their cosmopolitan sophistication to the community.
