Corner Gas Stars Out From Behind Butt
(February 28, 2010) Those of us who have, comedically speaking,
been running on fumes for almost a year
will be relieved to hear that the pumps at Corner Gas are
back up and running. Sort of.
At least, the key personnel who fuelled the late, lamented CTV
sitcom are back, most significantly its star and writer/creator,
Brent Butt,
in support of his top-billed actress wife,
Nancy Robertson,
in their newly minted mutual vehicle,
Hiccups.

'It
Has To Be The Most Authentic Cop Series Going’
(March 1, 2010) It’s
hard to think of a new Canadian TV series that has generated as
much preliminary buzz as CTV’s
The Bridge.
Billed as a hard-hitting take on life inside a major urban
police force, it comes with an impressive creative pedigree,
including lead actor Aaron Douglas (Battlestar Galactica),
five-time Gemini Award-winning writer Alan Di Fiore (Da
Vinci’s Inquest) and producer Laszlo Barna. |

The
Marriage Ref Is Seinfeld All Grown Up
(March 2, 2010)
Los Angeles — In some ways,
the inspiration behind
The Marriage Ref
sounds like a Seinfeld episode. Consider the plotline:
Newlywed couple invites a friend over for dinner. Everything is
civilized until the couple revisits a disagreement, which turns
into a spat, which turns into a full-tilt argument. The friend
naturally feels uncomfortable and tries to leave. Husband
insists the friend stay, hear both sides, and declare a winner
and loser. The wife and friend exchange puzzled expressions. |

Jay
Leno Returns To Tonight Show
(March 3, 2010)
What a difference a time slot makes.
Jay Leno
made a triumphant return to 11:35 on Monday night, reclaiming
his Tonight Show throne after a brief abdication to Conan
O'Brien. I have never been a big Leno fan – at least, not of his
hosting skills. He is one of the great stand-up comics of all
time and, recent bad press notwithstanding, is still apparently
the same easygoing (perhaps too easygoing), car-crazy Average
Guy his fans adore. |
