That sounds good. Hubby really likes, oh what’s it called? “Flashpoint”? About the sort of SWAT/Hostage Rescue team?

It’s got a bunch of good actors in it, including the gal most beloved by my daughter for being one of the original Power Rangers.

It’s a wee bit “kumbaya” for me, but it is a good show and very well acted.

Talk about small world. Enrico Colontoni, the star of that show, was a classmate of mine in elementary school and lived just a block away. I actually envied him when a tobogganing accident kept him out of school for quite some time. His legal name was Enrico but everyone called him Henry.

Enrico has a new show on Global, Remedy, that recently completed its first season. It’s pretty good; he plays the boss of a major downtown hospital with three kids working there as well- a drug-addicted son, a daughter who’s a nurse, and a daughter who’s a Surgeon. You can probably find episodes online at globaltv.com; last time I checked they never took down episodes of shows that they owned outright.

Another good one that ran on Global for two seasons then a two-hour finale a year later was Bomb Girls, about the workers at a WWII munitions plant in Toronto. Uneven but very watchable.
