Dry. Archaic Special FX. Brilliant.

The ending was great, that was funny

Actually funny, as opposed to shock-and-schlock faux funny. With a beefed-up cast, this could be excellent.

There are so many of these historical villages in Canada- lots of people can definitely relate!! Awesome stuff guys- I would watch it!

Loving it! Fantastic premise, a ton of interesting characters. Can't wait to see more from you guys! :)

I love the beauty. I know that's not the point, but it's there. The cinematography is golden and lovely and gives it a period feel so that I suspend my expertise and wait to be shown the world. I also like the wry humour. And as a mom, I like that I can show this one to my kids. That is a rare nobility - universal human comedy.

I like the idea - yes, so many actors have run the gamete of character acting! Imagining giving your 3 minutes dialogue your whole heart for an entire summer cracked me up :)

I am not seeing much here that is funny. I find that it is leaning towards boring. Not sure what will keep me watching week to week.
John R.
posted 10 years ago

I feel that it is to predictable. Nothing that I was not expecting. It certainly has that small town feeling, which I find boring.

I was a costumed historical interpreter and I love the idea for the show but after 3 weeks there's still not much to see of the actual show. Do you have a show? Are you sure...?

as a rural albertan I can totally relate to this premise. It reminds me of working at a grain elevator last summer.
Tim T.

Good idea. I see a lot of potential with this concept having been subjected to many living historical sites across Canada. Good wishes to your campaign!

A hilarious concept with some hilarious people. This show oozes Canadianism! Everyone at some time ha passed through one of these communities with ridiculous historic characters; peeking behind the curtain to see what these could-be professional artists are like is comic gold waiting to happen.

I'm a little interested in Geoff Legacy as a character--I wish I got to know more about your show and its setting and primary characters. I'm assuming Geoff will not be in the rest of the episode(s)? It all seemed a little beside the point, though the special effects bit was interesting.
