New tonight: This Hour Has 22 Minutes on CBC – Michael Jackson duet

This week on 22 Minutes we unearth a previously unheard Michael Jackson duet and we interview two very famous dead people.

22 Minutes with audience favorites Mark Critch, Gavin Crawford, Geri Hall, Cathy Jones, and special guest, Susan Kent airs Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 8:30 pm on CBC Television.

Unfair and unbalanced. The news will never look the same. Armed with political satire, sketch comedy and parody in this 17th season beloved characters return and new characters emerge to share the spotlight.

22 Minutes is produced by Halifax Film, a DHX Media company in association with CBC Television. www.cbc.ca/22minutes
