Today's Globe & Mail has a column by John Doyle on page R5 ("Attention, Fort Dork: tactical error") that says the CBC is totally wrong in their approach. He thinks they're foolish to think they can compete with the bombardment of regular U.S. television by just duplicating it; they will always fail. Instead, they should act more like U.S. cable networks and go for shows with moderate but highly loyal fan bases--which they had with both series.
