Radio Free Roscoe was a Canadian television series filmed in Toronto, Ontario. The show was produced by Decode Entertainment, and it first aired on 1 August 2003 on Family, in Canada. It has also been dubbed in French in the province of Quebec and aired on VRAK.TV. The show was later aired on The N in the United States, where the show received funding for a second season. The series ended on 27 May 2005 because The N decided to stop funding the show, and Family, along with Decode Entertainment, could not fill the gap in the production budget. The show was shown on Family until 2007, when it was replaced. In early 2008, The N began rebroadcasting reruns. The pilot was first filmed in New Jersey, with an entirely different cast. Then, the show was going to be based in Nutley, New Jersey and was titled Radio Free Nutley. The show was never picked up until Decode Entertainment decided to move production to Toronto and change the cast and title of the show. However, the show was still set in suburban New Jersey.

Friendships hang in the balance at Henry Roscoe High. Lily is torn between sheltering her strong friendships with Ray and Travis, and opting for romance. Travis reins in his affections for Lily when she pulls back from their near kiss, leaving Ray free to pursue Lily with an invitation to a ""special dinner"". Although the date turns from tragedy to triumph, Lily fears that a kiss could sour her friendship with Ray. Lily makes it clear that romance will not be in the air for either Travis or Ray, but the two suitors secretly throw down the gauntlet in pursuit of Lily's affections. And speaking of kissingâ€¦ a rumor about Kim Carlisle snuggling up to a ninth grader races through the halls of H.R. High and reaches the ears of Principal Waller who squelches Kim's radio show with some super dull ""approved copy"". Kim's unhappiness strikes a chord in Robbie who persuades Waller to put the Carlisle ""You and Hello"" back in Cougar Radio.
