Good.

I’m Canadian and there’s not enough Canadian content either.

We need to stop letting one country define almost all media consumed in the western world.

If you haven’t tried Deadloch yet, I found it very enjoyable. Not quite the same as Katering or Get Crackin’ but still fun.

Thanks! I’d missed it originally, and that trailer reminds me a bit of “A Touch Of Cloth” by Charlie Brooke’s, which is both good and bad. I’ll give it a shot!

I think they’re working on the second series. Yeah, I enjoyed A Touch of Cloth initially but the jokes wore a bit thin after a while. Deadloch made me genuinely lol multiple times. I’m still waiting for get crackin season 2 to be available in the UK. Love the Kates!

Nice! I don’t know why, but touch of cloth never resonated for me. Angie Tribeca I love, but Cloth seemed too at odds between tone and jokes. So off to the internets to find it!
