Wingin' It (originally titled Angel on Campus prior to its debut) is a Canadian teen sitcom which aired on Family. The series was produced by Temple Street Productions in association with Family. It stars Demetrius Joyette and Dylan Everett. This show included guest-stars from other Family Channel shows such as The Latest Buzz. It was announced that the series was renewed for a third season on June 13, 2011. Family announced that the series is not planned for a fourth season.
Wingin‘ It is a family series about an Angel-In-Training (Porter Jackson) and his assignment (Carl Montclaire). One half of the friendship is Porter Jackson a centuries-old Angel-In-Training (AIT) who has been sent to Earth to get his angel wings posing as a carefree sixteen-year-old student. The other half is Carl Montclaire, a fifteen-year-old typical high school kid who has been going through a run of bad luck. Little things seem to always be going wrong in Carl’s life. For Porter to get his angel wings, he’s been given the assignment of making Carl the most popular kid at Bennett High. In season 3, Jane now knows that Porter is an Angel-In-Training and helps him through the various problems he has in his magic.
The series is produced by Temple Street Productions and BBC Worldwide Sales & Distribution in association with Family Channel.
Season One started filming in mid-2009 and ended in late October. A total of 13 twenty-five-minute episodes have been produced for series one. It was announced the second series would premiere on the Family Channel in January 2011.
The theme song is sung by Canadian band Stereos and features the main cast in the video. Principal Photography on the second season began filming on July 5, 2010 in North York, Ontario. The School used in the production was an actual school (Melody Road Public School) opened in 1952 and used for a couple of decades before being closed due to declining enrollment. The second series was divided into two parts, seasons 2.1 and 2.2. On July 31, 2011, Family accounted either 10 or 26 episodes in Season 3 and 10 episodes were eventually made. Family said that it would premiere on August 26, 2011, but got pushed back indefinitely due to season 2.2. An original press release states that new episodes would have started on September 24, 2012 but the third season was pushed back again. Season 3 is now airing in Canada. Season 3 started production in January 2012 and was broadcast in June 2012 on CBBC. Season 3 began airing on Family Channel in Canada in late February 2013.
