Lily's an opinionated and inquisitive girl about the world around her. However, Lily's opinions may be contagious when she's too honest. Lily lives with her mom, dad (Philip) and sister (Simone). She likes to express herself through music, especially with her guitar. Lily's very friendly, and offers helpful advice. She's the innocent one out of the whole gang and has intentions that are pure. Lily's almost perfect in every way, except in the ways of love. This rocker loves to play in front of her friends, but when it comes to audiences she's like a deer in front of the headlights.

During Radio Free Roscoe, Lily expresses herself through music as Shady Lane. She originally got the name from Robbie. 'Shady Lane' is an actual song by Pavement, which inspired her to play guitar. Shady Lane also has her own segment entitled 'Ask Shady' where the callers ask for advice. She's usually the one with the right answer. Shady Lane is a true alter-ego, only louder.

Resolution: Get a girlfriend
Happiness is: Making milk come out of someone's nose
Voted: The joker

Some people may confuse Ray as a kid stuck in a teenager's body. He's truly a class clown and his humor is genuine, but when used wrong it can backfire. Ray's also talented in PE but lacks in academic subjects. He's a dreamer and has talent, but doesn't take himself seriously to refine it. Although Ray does have a lot of heart, he's sensitive at times, especially when other guys catch Lily's eye. Ray loves having all the glory, and gets impatient when the going gets tough. Ray digs the deepest to express his feelings.

Pronto is the comedian during RFR. Ray got the name 'Pronto' from Robbie. Since Ray always waits until the last minute, Pronto is the exact opposite. He usually entertains the fans with his humor, and home life.

Robert McGrath
Age: 14
Grade: 9
Alter-Ego: Question Mark
Likes: Girls, knowledge, journalism, music
Favorite Color: Orange
One Thing He'd Like to Change: Trusting his instincts
Greatest Ambition: To make a deep and lasting change, somehow.
Most Prized Possession: 'A pocket watch my grandfather gave me. Because he told me that time's passage is the only thing that is certain. Everything else should be questioned.'
Would Like to Meet: Guglielmo Marconi and Nikola Tesla to thank them for inventing a medium that cames ideas around the world.
Resolution: Question the truth
Happiness is: finding a cool radio station
Voted: Most likely to succeed

Due to his grandfather's gift (a pocket watch), Robbie's a very curious guy. He's also a natural born leader and has a love for radio. Robbie and Ray are very much alike, but Robbie's mature when it gets down to business. Although many of his crushes never work out, his confidence always overcomes the heartbreak, continuing to find 'the one'. Robbie lives with his mother, who is an artist. His father died from a car accident. However, Robbie never wants to let anyone down, which is why he expects much of himself. He's usually the one who wants to have control over situations. RFR will help Robbie develop a side that doesn't want to be a control-freak.

"What if you try ending your sentences without a question mark everytime?" That quote from Ray sparked up Robbie's name, Question Mark. Due to his curious nature, Question Mark's certainly the one to ask the questions others dare not to. He usually starts off with his catchphrase, "I'm Question Mark, and I'm wondering..."


Travis Strong
Age: 14
Grade: 9
Alter-Ego: Smog
Likes: Reading, famous historical figures, turntables, music
Favorite Color: Green
One Thing He'd Like to Change: Needs to lighten up
Greatest Ambition: To find "the answer"
Most Prized Possession: 1) Collection of rare comic books, because art comes in many forms, most of them unappreciated and
2) Bonsai tree, because it understands him
Would Like to Meet: Mohandas Gandhi. Because Gandhi was able to change the face of a nation and the world armed only with the power of an idea and the force of conviction.
Resolution: Learn to levitate
Happiness is: an illusion
Voted: Most likely to become a Buddhist monk

Due to his father being a diplomat, Travis travels to a lot of places, such as London and Hong Kong. He's never had the perfect idea of home, until he came to Roscoe. Travis is used to being alone, and covers his real self with quotes or through books. He never expresses himself straight out, which makes him the silent, mysterious type. Friendship is the only thing Travis can't figure out. Trust is the ultimate element with him, and with his strong friendship with Robbie and Lily, he learns it's not always him against the world everytime.

Travis got his alter-ego name after Ray called him 'Smirkdog'. He used the 'best of both worlds' combination, making it Smog. Travis is the one with all the equipment. Without him, RFR literally wouldn't exist. He's got some good talents such as working on the one's and two's. Even though Smog doesn't say much on air, it's usually helpful or intellectual whenever he does. Smog develops his true alter-ego in season two, making him an outrageous character that will knock your socks off

azuline

Thanks for starting a RFR spoiler thread. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I definitely sense a Travis/Lily hookup! So exciting.

Miss_Priss

Yep, it's super exciting... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Bee Serious

Travis and Lily grow closer than ever...? Maybe the shippers will get what they hope for! But what about Ray, are him and Lily going to go out or what?

azuline

It doesn't really sound like anything happens with Ray/Lily, does it? Or at least it's not mentioned in the spoilers.

One of the commercials leads you to believe that Lily tells Ray she doesn't like him like that, so...hmm.

Who do you think is the one member that wants to continue to be at RFR? My guess is Robbie.

Bee Serious

i think Robbie would want to stay too, because wasn't he the one who came up with the whole idea? And he always seems so enthusiastic while Ray or Lily will leave if they have something better to do. Could be Travis though, because Robbie was the first to accept him and he asked him to join RFR. Travis has really grown close to the other three and it's the first thing he knew when he moved from China...that was it wasnt it? Well anyway, he's always at the station after-hours and stuff. So I think it will either be Robbie or Travis.

sundaesmile

I'm thinking maybe it will be Robbie as well, because of the Ray/Lily/Travis storyline. I'm sure none of those three will want to be hanging out at RFR together after whatever secrets and betrayals become known to them.

¤}{îÖ¤

thanks so much for starting the thread... [img]smilies/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

lily/travis?! [img]smilies/nono.gif[/img] what happened with lily/ray? [img]smilies/bawl.gif[/img]

sundaesmile:: nice avvie! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sarah8

wow...we are moving up look at us, we have a spoiler thread!!!!

Yea it's Robbie, I think that wants to stay RFR. Because everyone else is probably angry about the love triangle that is going to happen.

Riberty

Nice topic [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] . Hmm...Imagine if they did a Degrassi/RFR crossover one day. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] (Even though the guy who plays Ray played another guy in Degrassi in one episode)

Miss_Priss

Riberty...for some reason i find that image very frightening...

Can you see Travis hanging with Spinner?
Lily anywhere NEAR MAnny without bashing her in the head?
Robbie with Marco?
Ray with Toby?

For some reason...i REALLY can't see it as anything but scary... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

NikNak

Just wanted to let you all know here that this board will be assigned to me, so I'll be the one moderating it. Please see Official Fan Forum Rules thread for more information. Of course, if you have any questions, feel free to email/PM Bel or I. Thanks, and have fun. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

¤}{îÖ¤

I knew he looked familiar somehow!!! Do you remember the episode?

[img]smilies/wave.gif[/img] Thanks for the info Nik!!

icygrrl02

Wow Travis and Lily? I was hoping that those two didn't hook up. I'm all for the Ray and Lily pairing. Well, those two seems to have a lot in common and Travis isn't as stupid as Ray, but that is shocking. Robbie and Kim are just about the worst couple I have ever heard. Kim is so annoying and she gets on my nerves and Robbie is another annoying person...come to think of it, they both deserve each other. Why did I waste my time saying that? O well guess I'm bored!

80sBabygirl

It was "Mirror in the Bathroom." It's the episode when Terri begins working as a plus-size model. Ray is the guy who teases Terri about her weight.
