In the news: Hardisty’s fame in The Week the Women Went

From Dawn Walton of the Globe and Mail:

  • The day the women walked
    “As the chairs were being folded, nobody complained about the way Hardisty was portrayed and the viewers promised to see each other next week at the same time. CBC said The Week the Women Went attracted an encouraging 770,000 viewers, comparable to Royal Canadian Air Farce, but not quite in the same league as Hockey Night in Canada, which gets more than one million viewers on average.” Read more.

In the news: The world of jPod

From Blaine Kyllo of the Georgia Straight:

  • jPod3jPod reflects real world
    “jPod has plenty to say about the process of developing video games and how management can interfere to the detriment of a project. And it’s a Coupland creation, so there are tons of pop-culture references and scads of social satire. In terms of tone and theme, the television show is somewhat different: it doesn’t quite skewer consumer culture the way the book does—after all, television is an advertising medium—and it ramps up the book’s absurdity to near slapstick.” Read more.
