People often joke about who actually likes Stephen Harper and it looks like Stombo finally found someone. During the promotion of his new movie, The Dictator, Admiral General Aladeen (Sacha Baron Cohen) weighed in on his love of Harper and all of his stylish ways.
Here’s a quick clip of the interview, which you can catch in it’s entirety on May 15th on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight.
Oh CBC why did you have to mess with a good thing?
When George Stroumboulopoulos and The Hour returns this fall, this are going to look at little different.
Firstly, the name of the show itself will be different. When it premieres on September 20th it will be called George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight. The name change isn’t horrible, but it pretty much ensures that no one will ever find it on Google. I’ve been writing about George for five years and still have to google search his name each and every time.
The other major change will be the seven year-old show’s length. The former hour-long late night talker is getting cut down to only 30 minutes. With commercials, that means we will probably only have about 22-minutes of the total swoon-tastic media personality.
Yikes! 30 minutes is not a lot of time for a show that has been the only one to come close to generating the buzz of The Daily Show. Sorry Mike Bullard, you that’s true.
So what do you think? Will any of these changes help a show that didn’t even need help in the first place?
When is the last time you watched and really loved a Canadian movie?
It has probably a while, right?
Well that is all going to change!
I just saw the trailer for the brand new Score: A Hockey Musical and I couldn’t be more excited! Seriously, you are reading this right now thinking I’m being sarcastic or that someone paid me to be so excited, but neither of those are true. It really looks like a great Canadian film.
Let’s consult the Great Movie Checklist to be sure:
I don’t want to wish away the summer, but can it please be October 22nd already!?
Props to the movie for making an entire Canadian production without featuring a single cast-member from any of the Degrassi. That in itself is impressive.
Will this finally get you to go to the movies and see a Canadian movie?
