  1. While I adore CBC radio content, rarely does their TV content come close (a few exceptions, e.g., Random Passage). Corner Gas is my only CTV show. Actually my only TV show. Gotta love it. “I don't know the same things you don't know.”

  2. There are quite a few CBC shows I like(d) but then again, I'm a bit of a TV addict (or I was – now, I'm an Internet addict! )
    The Hour with George Strombolopoulous
    Hockey Night in Canada
    This Hour Has 22 Minutes
    Kids in the Hall
    The Fifth Estate
    Kenny v. Spenny (now on Showcase and much the funnier for it)
    The Nature of Things
    Mary Walsh: Open Book
    Royal Canadian Air Farce
    Rick Mercer Show
    Wayne and Shuster
    Mr. Dressup
    Street Cents
    The Passionate Eye
    Here's a fairly exhaustive list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programs_broadcast_by_CBC_Television
    Hmm, not a lot of sitcoms or dramas in that list. I assume that's probably what you meant now that I think about it.
