NF is clearly upset with TPB because, as someone who is frequently drunk and often told to gently caress off by everyone else, he identifies with Lahey and hates how the character gets treated.

I heard a rumor that it was killed for political reasons because it hit too close to home for some folks at the CBC, but I don't know how much I'm willing to believe that.

PittTheElder posted:Exactly. If there was a more profitable place for them to be, they'd already be there. The liability and legal issues around the creoste plant are so hilarious that even on some sort of miraculous timeframe that site was never going to work even in a 10 year time span. Legally even if council approved without sorting out the liability, they couldnt even move forward as the city solictor would nix that poo poo in a heartbeat.

I'm not sure if it's triumph or condemnation that all the comment sections of cbc articles that allow it are mostly made up of "why am I not allowed to say racist or otherwise horrible poo poo on other article?!?"

But there's Letterkenny and Kids In The Hall, both of which were/are excellent? And how could anyone hate SCTV? Picnicface was pretty good but only lasted one season. And it may sound trite but Mary Walsh's performance on 22 Minutes was always wonderful. Marg Delahunty and Marg, Princess Warrior were amazing (and gods bless her, she once aggressively and horribly kissed Stephen Harper). And the old mother in the That Show Sucks sketches remains the most accurate depiction of a middle-aged rural Newfoundland lady I have ever seen in my life.

Actually ReBoot is the single greatest piece of CanCon ever and also the best product of Vancouver's largely non-existent tech sector. Beast Wars/Beasties is a close second.

A lot of Cancon sucks, and my pet theory is that it's because 99% of Cancon producers are milquetoast as gently caress, trying to be all special and clever without understanding how their art works. I caught like, 10 minutes of some show interviewing Canadian filmmakers having their movies screened at TIFF, and every single person came across really bougie-as-gently caress person (which corresponds well to the people that I know that do those things while 30 years old). PT6A posted:NF is clearly upset with TPB because, as someone who is frequently drunk and often told to gently caress off by everyone else, he identifies with Lahey and hates how the character gets treated. The perfect foil for this thread.

TheKingofSprings posted:Shows where the dub was recorded in Canada qualify as Canadian Content Canadian networks should start dubbing American shows with over-the-top Canadian accents and poo poo. That'd be hilarious (probably more hilarious than the average actual-CanCon comedy, given the present state of things).

That's just artists being artists and not specifically Canadian. If you believe that David Cronenberg or Guy Maddin "don't understand how their art works", I'm not sure what to tell you.
