Hard Out - Full Series
Television (Full Length Episodes) – 2003
Middledon is invaded by aliens in this pacy 2003 teen series. Jeff and Noodle — goofy 21st Century skaters — stumble upon the conspiring Neo Corporation. Being the only ones to see Neo's nefarious plot, the duo must resist mind control (teen spirit anyone?), save the town, and stop the skate park being 'wasted' and turned into a mall. Writer and executive producer Greg McGee described the two main characters as a "sort of junior Dumb and Dumber", which he says appealed to the target audience, alongside the skateboard stunts performed by two top Kiwi skateboarders, Kevin Francis and Brett Chan.
This is the emergency supply, from the armpit microwave!– Noodle (Victor Barlow) explains how he keeps his noodles warm, in episode one
