FAMILY CHANNEL’S FAVOURITE NATURALIST IS BACK SORTING OUT THE WILD WORLD OF ADOLESCENCE IN THE THIRD SEASON OF NATURALLY, SADIE

Toronto, April 30, 2007 – With high school in full swing and her friends branching out, Sadie hopes that she has finally gotten to the bottom of it all, scientifically speaking of course, in the third and final season of Naturally, Sadie premiering on Astral Media’s Family Channel on Sunday, June 3 at 6:05 p.m. ET/PT.

Still a budding naturalist, Sadie (Charlotte Arnold) is more passionate than ever about global and ecological changes. But with her various entanglements and lively array of friends, she’s got more than her share of wild to sort out. This season kicks off with Sadie embarking on a romantic relationship with Ben (Jacob Kraemer), but quickly realizing while he might be the “perfect” boyfriend, Ben might not be a good romantic fit for Sadie. However, this will not be the only romantic encounter, leading to further challenges for Sadie and her friends.

Sadie’s good friends, Rain (Michael D'Ascenzo) and Margaret (Jasmine Richards) are also back helping keep Sadie on her toes. While still a diva in training, Margaret is faced with having to choose between her pride and an internship in Paris. And while romance is not necessarily blossoming for Sadie, Rain, still cute and clueless, gets a chance to hook up with his childhood friend Taylor. But what will he do when his life-long crush, Vivian, finally shows interest in him? Meanwhile, Hal (Justin Bradley), Sadie’s immature but slightly cute brother, teams up with his kid sister this year in a number of exploits, including trying to get rid of “Teacher Mom” when Jean accepts a permanent teaching position at Bennett High.

Canadian television stars Michael Seater (Life with Derek, ReGenesis) and Kate Todd (Radio Free Roscoe) guest star this season. Seater plays Cole, the Whirly Ball team captain, who is Sadie’s first crush after breaking up with Ben. While Todd plays Jennifer, the college girl Hal falls for who might not be after him for the right reasons.
