This is Daniel Cook was a Canadian children's television show that originally aired on Ameba from 2004 to 2006. The show starred the titular Daniel Cook, an energetic and curious young boy who explored the world around him and learned about different hobbies, professions, and more.

Each episode of This is Daniel Cook followed the same general format. Daniel would visit a different location or meet with a different guest, and spend time learning about what they did or how they enjoyed their hobbies. Some memorable episodes included meeting figure skater Kurt Browning and learning about the sport of ice skating, going on a nature walk with a park ranger, and visiting a fire station to learn about firefighting and fire safety.

Throughout each episode, Daniel asked plenty of questions and engaged with his guests in a way that was both endearing and educational. He also frequently demonstrated his own skills and interests, like showing off his own roller skating moves or doing an art project with a visiting painter.

One of the things that made This is Daniel Cook stand out was its focus on giving children a glimpse into different careers and hobbies. By showcasing people in a variety of professions and activities, the show encouraged kids to explore their own interests and think about what they might want to do when they grow up. The show also emphasized the importance of curiosity and learning, as Daniel was always eager to ask questions and try new things.

Another standout element of This is Daniel Cook was its production value. Each episode was well-produced and featured high-quality footage, making it visually engaging for young viewers. The show also had an upbeat and catchy theme song that often got stuck in kids' heads (and their parents' heads, too).

The show's host, Daniel Cook, was also an important part of what made it special. Daniel was a relatable and charismatic host who had a natural rapport with both his guests and his young audience. His enthusiasm for learning and exploring was infectious, and his sense of humor and charm made him a popular figure among children and adults alike.

While This is Daniel Cook hasn't been on the air for several years, it remains a beloved classic among fans who grew up watching it. Its focus on education, curiosity, and exploration continues to resonate with viewers, and Daniel Cook himself has gone on to pursue a successful career as an actor and voiceover artist. For those who remember watching the show as kids, it's a fond reminder of the wonder and excitement of childhood exploration.
