Une grenade avec ça? (English: A grenade with that?) is a Québécois sitcom for teenagers produced by Zone 3 and aired on VRAK.TV. The name of the series comes from the popular grenade-shaped candies offered by the restaurant in the show. It is now the most watched show on VRAK.TV. The series debuted in 2002 and ended in 2011, after its tenth season. It is about the everyday trials and tribulations at Captain Creighton, a fictional Montreal fast-food restaurant.
Following recent charges of possession of child pornography and drug possession, episodes featuring actor Jean-François Harrisson have been pulled off the air as of March 6, 2009. He did not return to the cast for the following season and the role of Pat was written off replaced by Slamm portrayed by Pierre Luc Houde.
Anaïs Boutin: a really mean girl, whose dream is to be the next manager of the restaurant and she is able to do anything to accomplish her dreams. In fact, she wants to be a leader and have power over the others. She has worked with Mr. Pitre for about ten years and was one of his first employee and certainly his best employee. She learned by heart Creighton's booklet of rules and she has written her own version of it. A few years ago, she betraded Captain Craighton and Danny when she worked for Denny Pomerlo, the manager of a restaurant named Bar B.Q. Joe but later she exploded it because she forgot to stop the gas. Later, Mr. Pomerlo made a new restaurant. but she was fired and returned with Danny. She is not appreciated by her colleagues, especially by Eve and Patrick. Anais and Pat hate each other since they were ten years old. Ironically, they met for the first time in the same fast-food where they are working now. She became Tché's girlfriend for a short period of time, but he broke up because she loved him only for his money and because she was treating him like a real slave.
Danny Pitre: Manager of the Montreal Captain Creighton. He is addicted to root-beer. He went for the first time in this fast-food with his father when he was about 10. His father told him that one day, his son would become the new manager. The emotion was so intense for him that he vomited in his red cap. He works in Montreal's Captain Creighton since he was 17. He left school to work in the restaurant. He used to have a girlfriend named Nancy Désilets. He was working with her and his best friend, Denny Pomerlo. Danny was supposed to become the manager of the new branch of Captain Creighton in the suburbs of Montreal. He could not be happier: he was about to accomplish his dream and he fell in love with a girl who loved him. But his dream didn't come true. His boss gave the job to Denny that became Nancy's new boyfriend because she was interested by the power.
