What Canadian tv shows are worth watching?
I have netflix so I'm completely out of the TV loop (not that I don't watch any, I watch A LOT) so I was wondering what Canadian TV is worth watching?

Do you just mean shows that are available in Canada, or actual Canadian content?

Are you looking more for dramas? Comedies? Reality?
I think Schitt's Creek is meant to be very good. I haven't seen it but have heard great things.
I have a few friends who watch Michael: Every Day.

Schitts Creek is funny in a weird, why am I watching this crap, but I'm hooked kind of way!!!
I've recently been watching Workin' Moms. Still undecided but it's set in Toronto.

CBC news, The National, Hockey night in Canada, the Blue Jays & Raptors when they're on TV.
Of course what would Canadian TV be without a 'This hour has 22 minutes', 'Rick Mercer report', 'Murdoch Mysteries', 'Kim's convenience' or an 'Anne/Annie' episode

A colleague has been watching "Real Housewives of Toronto". She knew one of them at university. "I can't believe she really lives like that", she said, ambiguously.
Apart from that, the only mention of television I hear is about Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones or The Sopranos.
When we had a TV I watched Jeopardy! That has a Canadian in it.

A few years old - Da Vinci's Inquest
Sequel - Da Vinci's City Hall
Intelligence
The Border
A bit more up to date - The Romeo Section.
All so good, it's hard to believe they are Canadian.

Just before moving here I watched 'being Erica' on British telly, to acclimatise. My ability to time travel hasn't kicked in yet. Or was that yesterday?
