In the news: ZOS ambitions not yet met

From Robert Cushman of the National Post:

  • Zone of Separation is all soaped up with nowhere to go
    “For the third time in recent months, a character in a TV action drama finds himself – or in this case, herself – standing petrified atop an unexploded bomb. This scenario should be more gripping in Z0S: Zone of Separation, which is set against a real and recent conflict, than it was amid the fantasy heroics of Prison Break or 24. But in fact it’s less, precisely because the stakes and therefore the expectations are higher and they have not been met.” Read more.

In the news: Michelle Harrison of Wild Roses

From Julie Crawford of North Shore News:

  • Two worlds collide in CBC’s Wild Roses

In the news: Iman’s sense of style

From Kat Angus of Canwest News Service:

  • Project Iman
    “It is a testament to Iman’s character and elegance that a simple phone conversation with her can make you feel like a schlub. Speaking from her Manhattan home, the Somali supermodel’s voice gives off an impressive air of opulence and high fashion; her speech rises and falls with each sentence, as though nothing Iman has said before has mattered as much as what she’s saying to you right now, regardless of the topic. Today, she is extolling the virtues of caftans, her lounge apparel of choice. No sweatpants for this woman.” Read more.
