In the news: Jeff Ltd. interview

From Jim Bawden of the Toronto Star, an interview with Jeff Ltd. star Jeff Seymour:

  • Lovable scoundrel Jeff back with more schemes: Jeff Seymour left L.A. life for Canadian TV. His praised sitcom Jeff Ltd. gets second shot
    With Canadian TV the money isn’t always there. On U.S. TV it’s all about the money and talent can get the short end. I’ve had parts I really enjoyed – in Paul Gross’s H20, The Grid. This one I’m part writer, executive producer, co-creator. Would this kind of opportunity happen to an actor in L.A? Probably not.”

In the news: Little Mosque on the Prairie ratings

From Bill Harris of the Toronto Sun:

  • Furtado’s CSI, Mosque rule 
    “CBC’s Little Mosque On The Prairie (8 p.m. on Wednesday) posted a significant audience of 1.2 million. That’s an important number on two fronts: First, it maintains Little Mosque’s streak of attracting a million-plus viewers through four new episodes; and second, it halts the downward trend that had seen the numbers go from 2.1 million for the debut, to 1.2 million, to 1.085 million.”
