In the news: Canadian Idol’s roving reporter

Kathryn Greenaway of the Montreal Gazette talks to Canadian Idol’s roving reporter, Dave Kerr:

  • Montreal Idol
    “I watched both Canadian and American Idol a lot (over the years) and I think it gave me an edge,” he said. “I could talk about what I liked and what I could bring to the show. So, I guess my advice to the kids out there looking to break into the business is, watch as much television as you can.”

In the news: Moose TV good summer viewing

Rob Salem of the Toronto Star lists five shows to watch for this summer, including Moose TV:

  • Hot bets for the summer
    “Adam Beach, Gary Farmer and Jennifer Podemski co-star in an eight-episode offering that sounds like a combination of Corner Gas, The Rez, Paradise Falls and SCTV, with Beach as the prodigal son who returns to the tiny Northern Quebec community of Moose to re-open the dormant local TV station (by picking the lock) and broadcasting such locally generated shows as Me and My Beaver and Ernie Makes a Drum. Thursdays at 9:30 p.m. starting July 5.”
