Canadian TV: Crap? Well kinda…but seriously, crap? Yet sorta…
Dear Correctness Readers:
Here is a quote from our Provincial Culture Minister Lindsay Blackett who is attending the internationally important Banff Television Festival.
“I sit here as a government representative for film and television in the province of Alberta, and I look at what we produce, and if we’re honest with ourselves … I look at it and say, ‘Why do I produce so much shit? Why do I fund so much crap?'”
So, fans, we were ready to be indignant with everybody else, but then we had a long hard discussion at lunch: How much Canadian TV was truly great?
So we put it to you, our local and international fans: Was Lindsay Blackett being a total douchehammer, or just a painfully honest douchenozzle? Is he a complete cockpunch, or just a minor dicktwist?
How great or ungreat is Canadian TV?
Here is a list we generated:
People love Corner Gas, but they also love Air Farce…
Anne of Green Gables miniseries?
SCTV?
Degrassi? We don’t even know how we feel about Degrassi…
Kids in The Hall?
One of those “win $17” Canadian gameshows?
The Raccoons?
Beachcombers?
The Littlest Hobo?
For locals: Kingo Bingo?
