First, Diane gave us the scoop on her set visit to Chris Haddock’s new series for CBC called The Romeo Section, then talk turned to Orphan Black star Tatiana Maslany finally receiving a Primetime Emmy nomination.

After some more Emmy chat regarding how Netflix, Amazon and Yahoo have changed the face of this year’s nominations we closed out with the NFL’s plan to force the CRTC to let CTV air their own ads during the Super Bowl, and a senate report offering some recommendations on how the CBC should operate in the future.
