TV,eh? What's up in Canadian television

In the news: Being Erica and Soul tonight

From John Doyle of the Globe and Mail (see second and third items):

  • TV in the Age of Obama
    “Soul (Vision, 9 p.m.) is a new Canadian drama, the first hour-long series for tiny, feisty little Vision TV. Mainly it’s about Mahalia Brown (Juno-winning R&B performer Keshia Chanté), a talented singer tempted to transcend the church choir and aim for a pop music career. It is heavily emphasized that the world outside the church is a dangerous place but, also, that the church is out of touch with the real world.” Read more.

In the news: Keshia Chante brings life to Soul

From Ashante Infantry of the Toronto Star:

  • Chanté lives her life over on Vision’s drama Soul
    “The way Juno award-winner Keshia Chanté tells it, she didn’t feel secure as a singer until she played one for TV. The Ottawa native stars as vocally blessed preacher’s daughter Mahalia Brown in Vision TV’s first hour-long drama Soul, which premieres tonight. She portrays a teen conflicted about leaving the church to pursue pop stardom.” Read more.
