North of North

I found very refreshing to watch a show that takes place in territories that we never see on screen (except maybe in sordid films about the far north). I loved discovering Inuk actors, the language, the music, the culture ... The story of this woman who finds herself stuck in her daily life and who seeks to build her own identity outside of her family is super interesting and is totally relatable. I'll remember a sweet and comforting show, we become attached to all the characters, in short, I loved it, and I will be waiting for season 2 ! (I'm going to listen to the playlist in more detail right now)

This is a wonderful, joyous show! I heartily recommend it!

It is neither cookie cutter nor pablum. It is a joyful upbeat show with great likeable characters but it is not not lacking in human insight.

Although it shows us a culture that is not super familiar, the characters feel like friends. It does not shy away from some darker subjects but leaves us laughing. It is the kind of show the whole family can watch but it doesnt talk down to us.

These are humanly flawed and very loveable prople.

This is very good TV. It covers a lot of ground but doesn't overwhelm us.

I sure hope this show does another season!

I'm thrilled this original show found its feet. Well-written, directed, and acted. The characters have a lovely blend of authenticity and comedy. Each episode has heart and humour. Well done, CBC! Keep commissioning these gorgeous nation-loving gems.

I don't feel the need to say a whole lot more. If you're new to the show and unsure, keep watching. You'll get hooked soon enough. It is delightfully quirky, unique in storylines, and some wonderful, uncomfortably awkward moments that push the stories forward. I also deeply appreciate an insight into the Inuit culture, especially from an everyday (albeit TV sitcom) point of view.

This show is a really well drawn piece. From the storyline,to the funny moments ,great music and awesome costumes this TV show screams quality. The acting is great even from the breakthrough actors. Of course 'Ben Hanscom' (Jay Ryan) and 'Chloe' (M. Rajskub)were great, but everyone else too. The lead actress is going places! I loved the "grandparents" storyline, it reminded me me of Rojelio's and Xiomara's from Jane the Virgin. The only notes:1)First episode is a little awkward,but I believe because it wants to introduce the characters first,then it gets awesome. 2) The guy that plays her ex husband looks the same age as her father and older than her mother but they are supposed to be high school sweethearts. Weird. Everything else perfect.

As an Inuk woman, I never thought I'd see a show that represents us with this much care, heart and authenticity. North to North blew me away.

Our humor, our culture, the parkas, the beaded earrings, the traditional markings, it's all there and it's beautiful. I felt so seen. Every scene felt like home in a way I've never experienced from TV before.

I love this show so much. It's not just entertaining, it's important. It shows the strength, beauty, and complexity of our people.

I can't wait for the next generation to grow up seeing this kind of representation and feeling proud of who they are.

It's not just good, it's necessary. More Native shows like this, please!!! Our voices matter, our stories matter, and this proves it.
