Another piece of childhood down the drain

I remember days back when I was a kid when I would watch Street Cents, a half-hour commercial affairs TV show produced by the CBC that was targeted to kids and teens. And NO, I didn't watch it because of Jonathan Torrens...

While it wasn't groundbreaking, to me, it just seemed like a useful show to have around, like an encyclopedia. You never know when the product they test will actually help you decide on a purchase (Fave test: Nalgene water bottle. They had to drop a completely filled bottle off something like a 8 storey building for it to smash in half).

So it's with some sadness to hear that the CBC is cancelling the show because of dwindling youth audience. While I don't fault them for their decision, it's still sad to see a staple of MY CBC mythos disappearing.

Maybe they could turn it into a vlog or something. Something useful like this shouldn't just be dropped into the dustbin of cancelled shows...
