I have always found most, but not all, Canadian television scripted shows unwatchable. Any changes made as to what is produced and how it is made available to viewers will be of zero interest to me. I watch Corrie Street, Marketplace, CTV News at 6, maybe a dozen U.S. scripted sitcoms/dramas. The rest is sports. Mostly NFL,NHL, CFL and MLB. I have never seen anything remotely interesting [to me] on Netflix that I would open my wallet to watch.

The Canadian TV producing industry is seriously lagging behind and could in fact lead to it's demise...this the argument laid out by writer.contributor, Jill Gollick about our content and the kinds of shows we are turning out.

Here is the link, but my question is this, simply put, do you agree with this point of view...?
