I like some of the Brit, Aussie, NZ and Canadian movies/TV shows that don’t make it on American TV. PBS does show quite a few, however.

Right now, I am watching the long-running Canadian show, The Republic of Doyle. It reminds me of the old Rockford Files with James Garner. Just enough humor to make it light, but enough drama to make it interesting. I am into Season 2 via Netflix.

"Doyle" never hit with me. Another Canadian series, "Motive" bored me after a handful of epis. I'll watch "Murdoch" now and then. I do get the CBC and CTV out of Montreal.

I'm liking "Houdini and Doyle" on FOX, a Canadian/UK series. (I thought the production had a Canadian look.)

I’ve discovered Minder from the late 70s through the 80s.
