Canada’s worst import since... since... no... this might be it. Imagine if a Hallmark movie had explosive diarrhea which devolved into a TV series about Canadians with horses. Spoiler alert: The best acting on the show comes from the horses. --

As a Canadian. . ... I must say there is tough competition for that worst spot.

(I have not watched Heartland).

Apparently it has gone on for like a dozen years. I’ve not seen acting this atrocious since daytime soap operas. I swear the actors must be reading the words off cue-cards having never read them before. Their intonation and type of emotion will change mid-sentence, as if they are just discovering at that moment whether it’s supposed to be sad or sweet. And the reaction shots seem to be delayed from the action supposedly taking place, which is just sloppy editing. The horses all have the same look of despair, as if they know it is either this or the glue factory.

The gang from Letterkenny needs to pay them a visit and kick their asses.

Heck, the gang from Degrassi needs to pay them a visit and kick their asses.

It’s in a two-way race with When Calls The Heart for Worst Canadian Treacle.
