Sterling Knight

Sterling Knight is an actor, singer, director, and former Disney Channel star who is brought on by Late Night Sketches in an attempt to flex on Down to Film. He is a comedic version of his real-life counterpart.

Personality
On the show, Sterling is portrayed as a jaded former child star who desperately wants to move on with his career. He's easily annoyed, getting especially frustrated when people gush over his Disney-era work while ignoring his more recent achievements. He sees the things Terry and the other producers are having him do as insulting.

Biography
Through some unknown agreement, Sterling Knight comes to the station to cameo on Late Night Sketches, as well as a couple other shows. Excited that he's managed to get an actual actor on the show, Terry makes Sterling deliver a message to the crew of Down to Film, challenging them to a live show competition.

While he's delivering Terry's message to the crew, Daisy and Charlie both fangirl over Sterling, making several references to his older work. After Daisy makes a half-baked attempt at a reference to one of his more recent projects, he snaps and chews both of them out, storming out of the room afterward. However, Daisy and Charlie, still thoroughly starstruck, quickly run after him.

The next day, when the crew shows up for the live-show competition, they learn that Sterling Knight walked out on Terry and the rest of LNS because he didn't like being used as an errand boy.

Relationships
Terry: Sterling was originally hired by Terry to cameo on Late Night Sketches, but he quit after Terry made him act as a "messenger," which Sterling saw as degrading. When questioned by the crew of Down to Film, Terry attempted to brush this off as no big deal.

Notes and Trivia

 * During filming, Shelby Liggett, Daisy's actor, actually did get the name of "Landmine Goes Click" wrong during a take, calling it "Landmine Goes Strike." She has yet to live it down.
