2. Survivor and Amazing Race.

This list also hilights why I'm less than sympathetic to the CBC crowd that rails against any talk about cutting back on "Canadian programing". Let's face it. Canadian programing exists on cable nowadays.

Responses:

Flashpoint consistently makes the top 25, FWIW. - Reagen May 7, 10:20 8
- That Don Cherry bio did pretty well too. -- nm - Reagen May 7, 10:26 7
  - And looking back even further, Dragon's Den is a top 10, sometimes top 5 show when it's on. -- nm - Reagen May 7, 10:28 5
    - Right, but what's the connection between it and the most popular Canadian series? Cheap. Not a drama or traditional comedy. - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:31 2
      - OK, but you have the same things going on with US TV - Reagen May 7, 10:33 1
        
        Fair point. I guess I was just saying that the only two I watch are exactly in that catagory. - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:34
    - Huh. Heartland gets a surprising amount of viewers too. - Reagen May 7, 10:30 1
      - Yeah. That's a big huh for me as well. Surprisingly strong. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:35
  - Mercer/22 Minutes/old Air Farce...Those shows work because they're relatively cheap. Flashpoint, like Corner Gas, is more outlier than anything else. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:27
What are the top-rated Canadian shows for 2009? (I'm guessing Flashpoint is close to #1) -- nm - Beryllium May 7, 10:20 2
- The Republic of Doyle is a great show. outstanding even. -- nm - Beaker May 7, 10:22 1
  - Little Mosque on the Praire was great for the first season and then the CBC suits ruined it. -- nm - Beaker May 7, 10:24
