Now if buying Canadian meant having better options. Crave is the only Canadian streaming platform I know of and on top of giving money to Bell, it’s… not great.

May or may not be your thing, but Colin from Accounts and Pen 13 are both critically acclaimed.
They aren’t Canadian shows but are both on gem.
I’ll look them up. Wanna give me the Cliff’s notes?
Pen 13 has 30 year olds playing their teenage selves against actual 14 year olds. Aside from the writing this “gimmick” in itself works and is totally hilarious. It really captures highschool adolescence.
Colin from Accounts is a TV romcom that works. Written by a real life couple playing the romantic leads. They come together over the shared custody of a stray dog that gets injured because the mail lead hits it with his car after the female lead randomly flashes him. Very sweet and touching show.
They sound unique enough that I’ll at least give them a look. And the fact that both leads in Collin from Accounts are a real-life couple makes it interesting on its own.
