JPod

I have recently become a Douglas Coupland fan and was very excited to find out that jPod was going to become a show. I actually only started reading the novel after the show had been advertised. I feel the need to address that a television show and a novel are two different forms of mediums and I will treat them as such. As a television show I find it very entertaining and am actually impressed that a television show that actually holds my interest can be Canadian. The only other Canadian show (of fiction) I am a fan of is the Kids in the Hall. For years I have given up on television but thanks to jPod and the show Reaper I have reasons to watch TV again. I recommend this show and want nothing but the best for this great Canadian show.

The best show i have see in all mine 30 years of live i dream a continue and more dvds 10000%

I am a huge Coupland fan, and loved the book. I find that often movie or TV adaptations ruin the books, however, in this case, even though the show isn't "true to the book", I find it very amusing. It is easy to watch, the characters are fun and diverse..Alan Thicke is an absolute gem. When I watch it, I don't think..."you can totally tell this show is Canadian"... I am sure you all know what I mean by that. I think its a show that Canadians can be really proud to call their own. Way to go Douglas Coupland and cast and crew of Jpod. I look forward to next weeks adventure . Perhaps next we can see Girlfriend In a Coma on the screen!

This show wasn't very good, and wasn't funny or well written or well acted. I was quite disappointed. Maybe expectations were too high?

jPod is the only show that's caught my fancy in years. Based on the novel by Douglas Coupland, its intelligent, edgy characters make you crave more. The show truly sucks you in and makes you feel as though you're a part of that zany, geeky world.jPod centers around a group of young computer programmers creating a computer game called Board X:a gory skateboarding game featuring Dwight the turtle as it's hero. The personal lives of the "podsters" are intertwined with work life providing for some hilarious adventures.

Unfortunately, CBC has just decided to cancel the show. I feel as though I'm loosing a group of friends. Watch it though to increase the ratings and we'll see if we can save jPod. I promise you'll like it!
