Kaj-Erik Eriksen, 15, is a series regular on Hie Commish. This week he's on a brief Christmas hiatus from playing David Scali, son of Theresa Saldand and Michael Chiklis' characters.

By Christmas Eve, Kaj will be in a cozy cabin MICHELE on a lake just outside Kamloops. Kaj's big Yule-tide wish is for snow. "I can't wait to go cross-country skiing." 1 Now into her second season on Kid Zone, Kea Wong, 15, still manages to fit high school into her busy schedule. According to Kea, family and friends are most important to her this time of year. "We have a big get-together with my family.

My close friends mean a lot to me now that I'm older. And I think about what's happening in the world," Kea relates. 1 It's amazing that Ashley Rogers, 12, can stop long enough to celebrate Christmas. On CBC's The Odyssey, Ashley plays DonnaAlpha. Once the series wrapped for the season, she went straight on to the TV-movie Sin and Redemption, starring Richard Grieco.

The new year will prove a just as hectic, since the The Odyssey has been renewed for 26 more episodes. "Christmas to me," says Ashley, "is family, a lot of love and a really good time." She's spending the holiday with her Grandmother visiting from Seattle, Mom, and her two younger brothers. Justin Wong (no relation to Kea), 12, is excited about the Christmas presents he's hoping for, but adds that the religious significance of the birth of Christ is important, iinjjii a 'limmMii-wmi ADAMS So Good Bf na a 568 SEYMOUR ST. SUN. DECEMBER 26 ONLY too.

Justin just wrapped the feature film Mighty Ducks II starring Emilio Estevez for Disney which he shot on location in Florida and Minnesota. Gregory Smith, 10, got to meet Santa before he headed up to the mountains with his family for the holiday. Gregory most recently shot a Highlander episode and a CBS movie For tlie Love of Aaron. "Christmas for me means getting a chance to ski. We go to Whistler every year," Gregory MARKO reports.

Tyler Van Blankenstein, seven, is hopping up and down waiting for Christmas. He's hoping Santa will bring him some ice skates so he can play hockey. Tyler, of the Armstrong cheese commercials, will spend Christmas with his family at his Grandma's house. For Andrea Nemeth, 15, another regular of The Odyssey (MedeaSierra), excitement is the last thing she's looking for this holiday season. "I just want a relaxing holiday because things have been so hectic.

I love working but it's been one thing after another. I'd like to spend some time with my family." Andrea is just back from Montreal where she guest-starred on an episode of YTV's Are You Afraid of the "I'm geared up for Christmas. Who wouldn't be?" This is Codie Lucas Wilbee's take on the season. Codie, 12, most recently worked on the feature film Exquisite Tenderness and is hoping for a Sega Genesis under the tree. Eric Pospisil, six and a half, hasn't let the fact that he's sick dampen his enthusiasm for Christmas.

"My list for Santa is pretty long," Eric states. But more exciting than gifts was Eric's school Christmas play.
