: Hi Bea!
: Yes, I watched the program and like you, was quite impressed (surprised even..it's a CBC production after all eh?) I plan on taping all of the episodes, although it looks like the series will be available on video. What I really enjoyed, however, was seeing so many of my favourite NC actors from North of 60. Another thing that they incorporated into the episodes that I appreciated and enjoyed was all the information about the Native tribes residing in Canada and their history and culture.
: Bea, if you're interested in Michael Greyeyes and get the SCI FI channel, he's appearing in a show called Harsh Realm, airing this Sunday (10/29) at 1:00 a.m.
: I'll email shortly about the Big Bear tape.
: Thanks!...Jeri
Good morning, Jeri!
One of your first sentences made me laugh out loud!!! Yes, a CBC production..All of us Canucks must be very surprised!! :):)
I also taped it and will continue to so! This way I was able to watch it at my leisure yesterday morning! I am still impressed. The story of the Beothuk was quite fascinating.Oh, did the music sometimes remind you of LOTM?
Yes, I also recognized a few familiar faces and places. One part about the buffalo hunt was filmed in our province at Head-Smashed-In- Buffalo-Jump.It's a World Heritage Site and worth visiting..( No, Travel Alberta didn't pay me.:):)
"Harsh Realm" at 1 PM?? Too late for me...I am only able to stay up this late when a certain person from this board chats with me via phone..:):)
Take care
Bea
I'll answer your e-mail soon!!
