Hatching Good Television


I've begun watching a few new shows lately...my favorite has to be Matching, Hatching and Dispatching. Think of a outport Newfoundland version of Six Feet Under...damned hilarious, and of course Mary Walsh is front and center as the mistress of the mortuary...she's a hoot no matter where you put her...such as Parliament Hill, lmao...and Shaun Majunder is wicked with his strong outport dialect!!! eh, bye?


Another I've discovered after it was filmed here (some of it just down the road from me, apparently as I drove by each day this winter, oblivious...) is Northern Town, a story about a meteorite that landed somewhere in the Yukon and the locals begin searching for it to collect the reward money. Cool, huh?


And then there is a Showcase show, Weeds. It's about a widowed single mother who turns to selling marijuana to support her current lifestyle in snobby suburbia...kinda spoofy, but funny as hell!
