This 22 minutes cost me $20

I just paid $20 to watch a half-hour TV show. Grrrr. It had better be good! As I mentioned before, I'm a big fan of Less Than Kind. For its first season, the program aired on City TV, but its audience numbers weren't stellar. Blame The Bachelorette, not a great lead-in for a quirky comedy set in Winnipeg. So the show has moved up the dial to HBO Canada, a better fit according to show writer/producer Mark McKinney. He's probably right. I just wish I didn't have to shell out $20 per month to MTS to see for myself. Ah well, I'm looking forward to the season premiere. Apparently Dave Foley has a cameo.

  1. I liked the show quite a bit as well (growing up Jewish in the suburbs of Winnipeg might have something to do with that).

    As for poor ratings: I blame City TV, for its erratic and random scheduling and re-scheduling of the show. I don't think I ever watched it more than once at the same time on the same day.
