If you grew up watching game shows like a fiend whenever you weren’t in school the way I did, this might be worth checking out. Canada was once a breeding ground for new, original and beloved game shows, even some that reached audiences worldwide. Now, game shows produced in Canada are few and far between, …

What Matters Most, What Makes Us Whole, Is Knowing Who Is Annoying The Hell Out Of Us This Christmas
This friggin commercial drove me batty this Christmas season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TXa8gnzc6w and not for the reason you’re probably thinking, that it ran six jillion times an hour, especially on certain channels. No, it’s for these three reasons. First, I had no idea what it was for. This happens more times these days than I’d like. I’d …
What’s A Yeet?
Some days I’m pleasantly surprised by how well I can still relate to younger people. Other days I am exactly “Yeet?” years old. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6f54EvKLYcE
Cut It Out With The Cord Cutting
Maybe this is one of those old man things, but I really don’t understand cord cutting. If you’re trying to save money and all you ever use your TV for is the odd movie or something here and there then perhaps it makes sense to ditch cable and just pay $10 a month for Netflix …
Nobody Honestly Thinks Eggs For Dinner Is Weird, Do They?
I don’t understand the “eggs for dinner isn’t weird, you’re weird for thinking it’s weird” commercials. Is eggs for dinner really a weird thing? I know tons of people who do that, and most of them are pretty normal. If eggs for dinner is weird, why do so many restaurants serve all day breakfast? I …

TV Shark Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
If you had just gotten that out of your head, I’m sorry. If you clicked play and then said to yourself “what in the hell is this?”, congratulations on not having been around a child in the last four years. And if you’re at your wits’ end, praying to your deity of choice that the …
Complete + Wrong
Not sure if the ad on TV for Buckley’s Complete + Mucus bothers anyone else, but it’s been bugging the heck out of me. The name of the product doesn’t make any sense. If something is complete, it’s done. The minute you have to add a +, it’s no longer complete and the thing you’ve …
Everybody Needs Good Speakeroos
I like the little song in the Volkswagen commercials. It’s bouncy, it’s catchy, it’s fun to sing along to…especially when you actually know the words. I wasn’t sure if I was going deaf, there was too much background noise, I always caught it from a distance or some combination of the three, but for a …
Air Farce Grounded
I can’t remember the last time I actually sat down and watched an Air Farce special on New Year’s Eve because most years we’re either hosting something or being hosted by someone else, but that doesn’t mean I won’t miss them when they’re gone, which apparently is going to be soon. It isn’t what it …
All Elite Wrestling Looks To Have A Canadian TV Home
They didn’t exactly leave a lot of room for promotion considering that the thing debuts tomorrow night, but All Elite Wrestling’s Dynamite TV show will be available in Canada. Details are extremely sparse (there hasn’t been an official announcement yet), but several reputable wrestling sites have reported that AEW and TSN have made a deal …
