• Sophie proves good comedy isn’t easy
  “The funniest scene in Sophie (8:30 p.m. on CBC) — a remarkably unfunny Canadian sitcom that attempts, without success, to emulate the freewheeling irreverence of American counterparts like Will & Grace and Desperate Housewives — happens when the pregnant woman at its centre visits an unhinged psychic for a glimpse into her future.” Read more.
