In the news: The Border’s topicality
From Maria Kubacki of the Ottawa Citizen:
- The Border continues its topical ways with an Arctic crisis
“And you thought border guards spent all their time slowing down traffic and rooting out contraband Gap hoodies bought at U.S. outlet malls. Well, maybe that’s what joe schmo border guards do. But the elite agents on The Border, CBC’s drama about the fictional Immigration and Customs Security Squad (ICS) are all about sleeper cells, corporate spies, international assassins and African drug traffickers.” Read more.
In the news: Patrick McKenna guests on The Border
From Bill Harris of Sun Media:
- McKenna crossing ‘The Border’
“Patrick McKenna plays a great shifty guy. Fortunately, he takes that as a compliment.” Read more.
TV, eh? on Twitter
TV, eh? is trying out Twitter, so follow me there too if you like. Unlike this site, my Twitter stream will be slightly more personal, slightly less Canadian. I’m focusing on TV in general, linking to items that interest me and thoughts on what I’m watching. One of my (ironic? hypocritical?) pet peeves about TV coverage in this country is that Canadian TV is relegated to its own ghetto. It’s rare to read an article that mentions a Canadian show unless it’s exclusively about Canadian TV. Of course, what’s TV, eh? if not a well-intentioned ghetto, but it’s what I can manage. Twitter will let me do manageable microblogging where Canadian TV is just part of the landscape, and followers might learn a little more about Canadian shows in the process.
