Lost & Found Music Studios

The Next Step is a Canadian teen drama series created by Frank Van Keeken, that originally premiered on Family Channel on March 8, 2013. Presented in a pseudo-documentary style influenced by reality television, the series follows the members of a troupe from the titular dance studio, as they train for and compete in various championships, while dealing with rivalries and drama from other dance schools and even among the team itself.

The Next Step has spawned digital content, live touring shows featuring its cast members, and a spinoff series titled Lost & Found Music Studios. The series has also been sold internationally to broadcasters such as CBBC in the United Kingdom, and Universal Kids in the United States—which became a production partner for its sixth season.

Beginning with its seventh season in 2020, the series moved to CBC Television's streaming platform, CBC Gem. An eighth season was announced in April 2022, with the series moving to YTV. In March 2023, CBBC commissioned a ninth season.[4]

Production

Development

On February 24, 2012, Family Channel announced that it had ordered 26 half-hour episodes (including S1 and S1.5),[5] and a four-episode season finale.[6] Special content was also going to be available, including The Next Step Interactive. On April 9, 2013, Family announced that it had renewed the series for a second season,[7] which premiered on March 7, 2014.[8]

On May 5, 2014, the series was renewed for a third season, which premiered on March 16, 2015.[9] On April 16, 2015, it was announced that the series would return for a fourth season, which premiered on February 15, 2016.[10] On March 21, 2016, Frank van Keeken announced on Instagram that The Next Step would return for a fifth season, which premiered on May 26, 2017.[11][12]

In July 2017, the series was renewed for a 26-episode sixth season, which premiered on September 29, 2018.[13][14] From then on, Boat Rocker would take over distribution from BBC Worldwide for the series, although the latter would continue to co-fund production and continue to distribute the first five seasons.[15] A 24-episode seventh season premiered on CBC Gem on April 10, 2020, and was preceded with a two-part special in December 2019.[16][17]

In April 2022, CBBC revealed that an eighth season was in production.[18] The series moved to YTV in Canada, and the season premiered on September 26, 2022.[19]

Filming

Filming began on July 19, 2012, in Toronto, Ontario.[20] The Next Step is filmed at Filmport Presentation Centre, Toronto.[2]

Exterior and street shots were shot on location in Downtown Toronto. Locations include Dundas Street, Front Street, Jarvis Street, University Avenue, and Yonge Street. The exterior shots posing as The Next Step studio are from Colborne Street.[3]

Broadcast & distribution

The series aired from March 8, 2013, to April 7, 2019, on Family Channel in Canada, and from April 10, 2020, to September 18, 2020, on CBC Gem for the series' seventh season. The show also airs on Vrak in French. The series premiere set rating records for Family, with at least 574,000 viewers on its initial broadcast—which set a record for Family's highest-rated original series premiere.[7]

Outside of Canada, the series has aired on Universal Kids in the United States, and CBBC in the United Kingdom.

On January 8, 2014, BBC Worldwide licensed the series to several international broadcasters, including ABC Me in Australia, Hulu in the United States, and CBBC in the United Kingdom.[21][22]

In August 2017, the U.S. rights to the series were sold to Universal Kids, with the network also becoming a production partner for the sixth season. Boat Rocker Media, owner of the show's producer, Radical Sheep Productions, cited a reduction in funding for the series from Family Channel parent company DHX Media as an impetus for the arrangement.[23]

Reception

In July 2020, The Next Step was praised by viewers and the media for airing a same-sex kiss, when characters Cleo (Dani Verayo) and Jude (Molly Saunders) kissed after performing a duet together.[24] This was the first same-sex kiss to be featured in the series, following a gay couple being briefly featured in an episode of the fourth season.[25] The scene also made history as the first same-sex kiss to be aired on CBBC.[26]

In September 2013, Paul Cormack of Family Channel announced that The Next Step cast would go on a tour of Canada:

"We are always looking for new and exciting ways to connect with our audience on a national level. The Next Step Hit The Floor Tour reaches viewers in their own communities, providing a one-of-a-kind, interactive experience that demonstrates Family Channel's commitment to creating unique opportunities for its fans."

— Paul Cormack, Director of Marketing, Family Channel[48]

The cast members that hosted the Hit the Floor Tour were Victoria Baldesarra, Lamar Johnson, Isaac Lupien, Jennifer Pappas, Brittany Raymond, and Trevor Tordjman. Each event consisted of the cast performing on stage in groups, and a Q&A session where the audience could ask questions and get "takeaways" for attending the event. The first 200 attendees were given a wristband, which would get them an autograph signed by the hosts.[48]
