    Anyone got any show recommendations on CBC Gem? Bf and I just downloaded it but not really sure what’s good yet.

    We’re fans of sci fi and fantasy if anything like that is available on it

    (Edit: thanks for the recs folks!)

      Check out “station eleven” — a show set in a post-apocalyptic world but isn’t like any show you’ve ever watched in any genre. Only one season long and doesn’t end on a cliffhanger or anything, just a nice contained story

      I’ve started listing a few CBC gem shows I’d like to watch (though I don’t really watch much tv so it may take me some time.) Anyway, from my list there are a couple that might fit the bill:

      Britannia - Trailer

      Penny Dreadful Trailer

      Family Law is pretty good. Lawyer show, set in Vancouver, stars Jewel Staite.
