An apology to all you non-Canucks, who won’t know what I’m talking about, but what the hell is Ken Finkleman doing, and why doesn’t the CBC stop him? I thought The Newsroom was funny, but his watered-down Fellini bit has got to go. People normally point out that what he’s doing is so different from what normally goes on on TV. True. So why don’t they give me a show in which I interview my own ass for 22 minutes? That would be different, wouldn’t it, and not nearly as pathetically self-absorbed as Finkleman’s latest effort. We could do without the sycophantic interviews in between, too. I’d rather have ads.
