That was cool, Kate! Pretty music and such a cute looking show. I'm surprised I never watched it.

Thanks, Julial! It was a cute show -- not horribly deep or anything, but fun. And Paul Gross is also easy on the eyes, if in a very stereotypically-handsome way.

The show almost always used Canadian music (they introduced me to Sarah McLachlan maybe two years before she became popular in the US; the scene with the curly-haired woman was set to 'Possession,' and Natalie Merchant of 10,000 Maniacs had 'Carnival' playing on the street scene with the double-decker bus), so I thought it was fitting to use the Nova Scotian Rankin Family anyway. I officially put too much thought into things like that. But I liked the involvement of chants and of Gaelic, so...

I thought this song worked very well. I have never seen this fandom, but they way you portrayed it was very spiritual!

Back from London! Thanks, Nikki -- glad you liked it and got the spirituality focus of it. The show was more 'Monk'ish in tone (buddy-cop/crime caper), but definitely had some striking moments and scenery!
