“We are delighted with the response from viewers who tune in weekly and write and e-mail us with their comments,” said Kirstine Layfield, CBC executive director of network programming.

LITTLE MOSQUE ON THE PRAIRIE has received a number of accolades, including being invited by the Museum of Television and Radio, in both Los Angeles and New York, to screen an episode. Following the screening, a panel consisting of the cast, creators and producer will respond to questions.

In the news: Corner Gas and Little Mosque ratings

From Media in Canada:

  • Mosque and Gas finales ratings winners
    “Though a far cry from its much-hyped premiere – which exploded on Jan. 9 with nearly 2.2 million viewers – CBC’s Little Mosque on the Prairie had a strong first-season finish. It nabbed more than 1.1 million viewers for the season finale entitled “Playing with Fire” on March 7, despite airing opposite CTV reality juggernaut American Idol.”
