Over the last five years, fans have turned to Lost for an inventive, far out, and moving story that frequently defied explanation. However, with the sixth and final season of Lost set to debut this week, the end is drawing near for one of the most discussed and examined shows on television, and answers can’t be very far away.
At the start of 2009 I was pretty disappointed in CTV. They were the original Canadian broadcaster for Lost, but for whatever reason they decided to dump the fifth season over to their cable station, A, our of Barrie.
The fall slate of new television shows has been announced in Canada, and there are some interesting series making their debut. Read more for a quick peek at some of the most compelling shows coming to CTV, A channel, and Global Television.
Let me just say that I’m kinda peeved with CTV right now.
Last week I was at Aisha’s house watching the return of Lost, and I didn’t really pay attention to the channel we were watching the show on. It was a good return to form for the series, and as addicted as I am, I’m already dying to see how this season plays out (What’s happening to Charlotte? Who attacked the survivors? And how will Locke die, and is he just somehow kinda dead?).
For the life of me, I can’t understand why anyone watches eTalk, CTV’s cheesy, rubbery entertainment news show. Between Ben Mulroney’s flat, uncharismatic work as the show’s host, and the lame stories that never go more than skin deep, I haven’t been able to watch more than 5 minutes of the show in years.

All right Lost fans, tonight’s the night. Lost returns to TV and I’m d-y-i-n-g for my fix. What’s going on with Michael on the boat? Who killed Rousseau, and why are they after Alex? And why haven’t we seen any polar bears or smoke-monsters in ages?
Tonight’s show [...]
And the torture wraps up with the last hour of the night.
9:05 PM – Anne Murray and some friends perform on stage, with a standing ovation from the crowd. I have to admit, even I have a soft-spot for Anne and her groovy tunes. I’m also always amazed by how many people still love that [...]
8:28 PM – Finger Eleven take the stage with a mini-orchestra opening for them, and do a bang-up job of “Paralyzer”. They’re not very interesting on stage, but it’s still the best performance so far tonight.
This performance also reminds me that CTV could really use some talented camera work on this show. You can have [...]
Here we go – another Juno Awards (this year in Calgary, Alberta), and another rant about why they suck. I really want to like them, but I’m sorry – why are they so awful? I’m probably not going to blog every minute of them this year, but I’ll have a few updates on how they [...]
After a 13-city audition tour that took the judges across Canada and brought thousands of hopefuls before them, Canadian Idol has it’s top ten finalists and the stage is set for fans across the country to choose their new pop sensation.
