What's the crappiest Canadian TV show?!

I'd have to give my vote to Degrassi Junior High, I don't care what the nations culture police say. That show sucked.

13. Hey bro!

Tired; really, really tired; I need to up the dose for my coffee IV in the mornings:)

You're still on the Independent Nation playlist; anything new I can put on?

14. Haven't posted anything new for a while.

Thanks for keeping me on the playlist!

There are a couple of ditties that have been in a nearly-acceptable state for a while now, but I haven't been paying much attention to them for the past couple of weeks.

Hopefully I'll get 'em up to offacough.com in the next little while. Hmm. I have tomorrow off, so you never know.

(BTW, the kilogram tin of President's Choice coffee at Superstore is usually under seven bucks. Usually lasts me about a week and a half!)

The punchline was always "I have to go to the bathroom."

Mind you, most Canadian TV shows are crap.

11. What was that one based in Vancouver a couple of years ago?

It wasn't DaVinci's Inquest, was it? Every other line mentioned a Vancouver street or location by name.

"Meet me on the Granville Island side of the Burrard Street Bridge, and we'll head on over to Lonsdale Quay!"

16. The problem is most of the great Canadian talent is in Hollywood making

their TV shows!...They have gone where the big money is. Who can blame them?....It always kind of bugs me when I hear anyone say Canada doesn't have enough good TV drama or comedy or movies. The thing is MANY of the top shows on American TV are made by and performed by Canadians. It's late and off the top of my head I can't name names, but with a little investigation you'll find I'm right. We have an amazing amount of talent, for the size of our population, but a lot of it gets siphoned off to Los Angeles....C'est la vie.
