Everything about Dragons’ Den, eh?

The Border is back; Ratings for Dragons’ Den, The Tudors, SYTYCDC

From Bill Brioux of TV Feeds My Family:

  • Border Back Tonight; Dragons’ Hit 1.5 mil
    “The Border returns tonight at 9 p.m. on CBC, the last of the CBC series launches for now. The action hour is entering a third season, a critical time for most shows. It`s been around long enough for editors to say, ‘What else ya got?’ when guys like me are pitching features, not long enough to have reached that magic 100 episode mark and the promise of syndication riches.” Read more.

In the news: Hits and misses for Canadian shows; plus The Border returns tonight

From John Doyle of the Globe and Mail:

  • Canadians like their Dr. House. Pastor Mansbridge, not so much
    “One million viewers is the benchmark for Canadian productions and in that category there are hits and misses. CTV’s So You Think You Can Dance Canada is drawing about 1.4 million viewers, a number likely to go up as the competition reaches it conclusion. Flashpoint is also a huge hit for CTV, drawing 1.8 million last Friday – without having a CBS simulcast – and putting it into the Top 20. CBC’s Dragons’ Den drew 1.3 million viewers recently and Rick Mercer Report started this season with 1.2 million CBC viewers. Meanwhile, both Being Erica and 22 Minutes are well under the million mark, drawing about 770,000 viewers recently. Little Mosque got 560,000 for its season debut.” Read more.
