North of North

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.

I really love this series, the casting is great. I can truly identify with Siaja and the way she is treated by her husband. Wish I had been able to make a break when I was young like her. I love the story line with her father. It's good to see the actor who plays him, again. He gives such heart to the character of Alistaire. And, I really like the actor who plays Kuuk, Jeremy from SkyMed. I sure hope there will be more episodes, seems like it was just starting to get deep the last few episodes. It's so refreshing to see something new on TV that hasn't already been done a million times over. I love the mix of the youth with the seniors in the show. And the community feel. Also the length of each episode is a good length if you are just looking for something to watch when you don't have a lot of time.

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)

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.

Kinda like a more real northern exposure. Canadian wit, beauty and a world i have not ever seen depicted in a sitcom.

Not too corny, genuine characters.

2 eps in on cbc gem and it gets two caroboo antlers up and is in the running for The 2025 Beaver award for best new show

Think Kim's convenience with Fargo like cinematography.

And Gail the Snail from always sunny lands a prominent role.

First Nations Innu are represented most honourably.

I look forward to hearing what y'all think.
