thats right, canadian television, nothing like sitting down on boring friday night and watching a good episode of Emily of the New Moon or whatever the show is called on CBC. I hope none of you has had to ever suffer though canadian television, we don't know how good american tv is until we have to without it.
So this brings me to the topic of the thread, which canadian tv program do you like the most. It could be anything, something on TSN or Sportsnet, how about a Comedy Network program or even something you'd find on CTV or Global thats canadian.
Me i enjoy, NHL on TSN of course, Corner Gas, Comedy Now, Just for Laughs all on Comedy Network.
how about you guys?

The only Canadian material i watch are, Corner Gas, Comedy Channel and TSN. Those are mainly the ones i tune into. Nothing else really appeals to me.

Anything on the comedy network. I can't stand the homemade shows on CTV or CBC. Showcase is awesome too

Canadian television sucks, but there are two exceptions. They are 'Trailer Park Boys' and 'Made in Canada'. TPB is just hilarious from start to finish because the characters are so relateable and it's refreshingly funny thanks to there being no limits on Showcase. I think 'Made in Canada' is good because of the writing and overall performances by the cast.
I never got in to Corner Gas and from the episodes I've seen it doesn't appeal to me. Comedy Now looks excrutiatingly bad just from the commercials they run so I've never bothered to check it out. Just for Laughs however is great although the majority of the time that's thanks to the big name American comics like Mitch Hedberg, Ron White, Jim Gaffigan, etc.
The only other show I've seen that I somewhat enjoyed was Robson Arms. I've seen a few episodes and only one actually made me laugh and I think it was mostly due to Will Sasso, who I don't really care for.

I can't think of any Canadian shows off the top of my head that I like/watch.

I used to love Canadian TV back when Degrassi was on (the older version).
