Zaib Shaikh and Sitara Hewitt in La petite Mosquée dans la prairie (2007)

Review by steveadams-1

La petite Mosquée dans la prairie

Irrelevant, Inoffensive, Unfunny - Little Reason to Watch.

It's not at all surprising that the CBC network has taken this decent idea of a Muslims living in rural North America and drained all of the fun, all of the comedy and all of the relevance out of it. What we are left with is a boring, tasteless, bland, irrelevant yawnfest of a nothing show that can only interest the CBC's core audience of 75-90 year old farmers who have an antenna and still only get three channels. Where is the funny? Where is the drama and relevance? It's just one dimensional characters wandering from one slapsticky gag to the next. We get it already! Muslims and white country folk are different! How funny can it be to put over the top conservative Muslims in the same room with over the top conservative Christians again and again and again and again while repeating the same jokes and the same results. You could end every joke and every scene with "they don't understand us because we're soooo different!" They might as well have called this show "The We Wear Different Clothing Than You Hour! Look At My Strange Hat!" The jokes belong in a 1950s sitcom and were probably actually stolen from a 1950s sitcom. Any child can see these jokes coming from ten miles away. An awful show and another shame for the CBC, I am starting to think we should stop funding them altogether when they seem completely unable to change. Air Farce and Little Mosque? We deserve better than this.
