I'm kind of laughing at myself, because to tell the truth, I probably
wouldn't be watching it if it were on TV here. I never ever watch sitcoms.
So maybe I'd have saved the gasoline anyhow... But I do suffer from a bit
of Canada envy in many other respects.

I just read about your new series, "Little Mosque on the Prairie," and I
wish we could get it.Sounds terrific. It would probably never fly here
anyhow. I feel like driving over the border on Tuesday nights, just to
see it. I think it starts tonight.
Not so fast, true-North breath. Canadian sitcoms are almost always
lousy. In recent years, the only exception is "Corner Gas", and in order
to appreciate it you may have to be Canadian.
I'm going to check "Mosque" out tonight but my expectations are not
high, no matter how well-meaning the programme is. I'd wait before
driving up here.
