  1. Wow, I had no idea that Murdoch Mysteries pulled in that high of numbers. It’s not really my type of show and I don’t know anyone who watches it but congratulations to the people who make the show.

  2. Glad to hear they are the top shows, way to go!
    I enjoy the M.Mysteries because of the regular and the guest actors that we recognize from other shows and the neat facts, snippets of info that the detectives share and D.Den, just as it is. Keep it up guys.

  3. I can’t wait for this season’s Dragon’s Den. I am going to set my recording so I don’t miss an episode. Bring it on Dragon’s, A family favorite for sure.
