System Crash is a Canadian youth sketch comedy television show, which aired on YTV from 1999 to 2001.[1]
The series centred on a group of students in a junior high school media club, telling the events of their fictional school, Lambton Junior High, in the past week.[2] Each episode usually had a theme, i.e. parents.
