Guest Teri Vogel, who attended Comic-Con in San Diego last month, gives us the scoop on the Lost Girl panel (available on YouTube here).

Anthony and Diane talk about Russell Crowe’s tweet-confirmation that he will indeed guest star on Republic of Doyle, Molly Parker’s addition to the cast of The Firm, and Comedy Network’s development slate.

We also rant about a Toronto Star “article” that allows reality producers to congratulate themselves on their feel-good programming, and discuss the CRTC’s new CanCon spending minimums (with – shock – a minimum of ranting).

Diane and Anthony interview CBC Radio 3’s Brent Hodge, the producer/director of the Said The Whale documentary Winning America, which airs on CBC Saturday, July 23 … only in BC, it turns out. So Vancouverite Diane gets to rub that in Hamiltonian Anthony’s face. But we chat about filming the band and their adventures in getting robbed in California, performing at SXSW, and winning the Juno.

 

 

We also discuss Shaw’s new Movie Club (supposedly their answer to Netflix), Rookie Blue’s renewal for season 3, The Firm adding Juliette Lewis and Callum Keith Rennie to the cast, Blackstone starting production on season 2 and offering an autograph signing and audition contest, the Family Cook Off casting call, and Emmy CanCon.

fp-gallery 0126(1)There’s 2 big interviews this week: Diane talks to David Paetkau of Flashpoint, and Anthony chats with former Kid in the Hall Kevin McDonald of Bite TV’s Papillon.

In between, there’s some news about Lost Girl getting 22 episodes this season, Being Human shooting season two, and Flashpoint’s ratings.

Plus, the CRTC is delaying CBC’s license hearing which can’t be good news. And some Canadians are going to be CBC-less after the digital transition.

There’s also 2 giveaways:
