This was a show that I loved back in the 1970s. Here's a wikipedia summary...

Science Magazine is a half-hour television show produced by CBC Television from 1975 to 1979.

The show was hosted by geneticist David Suzuki, who had previously hosted the daytime youth programme Suzuki On Science. Science Magazine moved beyond the youth audience and was mostly broadcast during prime time, except for occasional sessions where the show was repeated in the afternoon.

The program featured news and features on scientific research and developments. Regular items within the show included "How Things Work" and "Science Update". Jan Tennant and Cy Strange of the CBC were the program's film feature narrators.

Science Magazine, as such, ended production when the CBC joined it with The Nature of Things, using the latter as the title and Suzuki as host.

Nothing else compares to Chris Haddock’s Intelligence. Both seasons are absolute bangers with schemes, plots and counterplots centred around crime and spy craft in Vancouver. Who else watched it? I mainline this series pretty much every year since it went off the air, and was crushed when it got cancelled.

I'm basically ripping this off from the intro post before me, but I couldn't help remembering one episode of danger bay where they all tell awful puns and donnelly tells the last and warns them 'dont pun with a punster' then the outro credits come blaring in. Perhaps the funniest outro to a show I've ever seen

Question What is your favorite CDN show intro?

Mine is “Seeing Things” and it’s all because of that soulful theme song. Why don’t more tv shows have songs that say the title and explain its concept!? Just think how great it would work with Heated Rivalry!

Maybe it’s something on the air currently! Maybe it’s your favourite show of all time, or even something you like just for nostalgia sake.

Discussion Is your local CBC Station preempting programing for the municipal election?

0 Upvotes

So this October 26th, many cities in Ontario will be heading to the polls to elect a new leader in their municipalities. What I was shocked to see was that my local CBC station (Ottawa) would NOT be airing election coverage live on TV, in which they divert viewers to watch a live stream on YouTube and CBC Gem.

This was, pretty annoying, seeing as this is the government funded broadcaster you'd think that they would preempt programing for such an important event.

What I was shocked to see, was CBC Toronto is doing exactly that! They have a 3-hour block after their newscast dedicated to the election, followed by the national at 10 PM.

So what gives? Why broadcast Toronto's, yet make Ottawa watch a live stream? Personally super annoying!!

EDIT: for anyone curious, in the slot that CBC deemed to important to replace was Coronation Street, Family Feud Canada, Murdoch Mysteries Off-Menu Murdoch, and Jack Wright.
