Mark Dillon of Playback looks at the performance of CBC’s fall season:
From Jim Bawden of the Toronto Star:
From Channel Canada:
John Doyle recommends The Tudors (and Pushing Daisies, but The Tudors is nominally Canadian content) and has a preview of the Rick Mercer Report:
Two very different shows about love, lust and powerPhoto courtesy CBC: Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Henry VIII and Gabrielle Anwar as Princess Margaret (The Tudors – episode 4)
Here’s part two of the Canadian TV fall preview podcast, featuring a writer on writer interview with Intelligence and Da Vinci’s Inquest creator Chris Haddock, plus lively discussion on some new and returning fall shows. The podcast is about 20 minutes long; segment start times are approximate:
TV fan and industry insider Caroline from A Place Called Say It, Say It, Say It, writer John Callaghan of Creatively Progressing and I talk about some of the new fall shows – Heartland, Da Kink in My Hair, and The Tudors.
(Start time: 4:45) Writer Denis McGrath from Dead Things on Sticks interviews Intelligence and Da Vinci’s Inquest creator Chris Haddock – spoilerphobes beware, as he lets us in on what to expect from season two, starting Monday, Oct. 1 at 9 p.m. on CBC. (See a partial transcript of this interview here.)
