CBC to air comedy "Little Mosque On The Prairie"

[geoffrey]

I seriously doubt that we'll be reading about car burnings in the streets of Toronto tomorrow morning.

Only because they didn't portray Mohammed as backwards as they portrayed Western Canadians.

If they showed a bunch of enslaved women in a polygamist relationship with Mr. Mohammed, I'm sure people would be dead tomorrow.

Boo to political correctness. The only minority that can be made fun of safely in this country is Western Canadians.

I thought the acting or directing or production (something) was amateurish like most Canadian productions. I did like the script though, for the most part.

You forgot to mention the condescension of silver spoon socialists to redneck prairie hicks. But you made up for it by being condescending yourself.

Probably because the producer/star and the CTV execs who made it happen are all westerners....too bad you fufill the stereotype of an ignorant hick so wonderfully or you would have caught that

The producer is Zarqa Nawaz, a muslim, born in Liverpool England. Maybe she'll really get brave and show clips of a young girl being hanged for killing a rapist. That should get some good reviews.

No I disagree, not about the show, it was terrible, about the "most canadian...."

I disagree. The Tournement was hillarious. Made in Canda was brilliant. Naked Josh....there's some really innovative stuff coming out these days.
