c9CBC has cancelled jPod, the weird comedy-type object they built based on Douglas Coupland's incredibly odd novel. Thankfully, the show is based more on the first half of the book than the last (much more odd and hard to put on a tv show) half. Unthankfully, it's been canned!
First, a word from the actor who played Kam Fong: "I’m a pretty chilled out go with the flow kind of guy, but I recognize that there are times in my life when I’ve got to fight."
Next, word that I can even blame the accursed Toronto Maple Leafs! While it sucks to have the show cancelled, I recognize that it happens. At least I can direct my rage at a familiar rage receptacle.

It is no huge hardship for me to go back to auditioning and booking and living my life as an actor. It is my passion. No. It angers me that the CBC our nation’s television station (yes I know among other things) chooses to cancel a show that is so cutting edge, fun, smart and CANADIAN. So many viewers have gleaned joy from watching jPod week after week.

Save jPod!
