Not One to Connect
After far too many wasted hours in front of my television I can say, without any doubts, that Connect with Mark Kelley is the worst new current affairs show on TV. This program is two hours of non-news, old news, inane filler and just plain nonsense. Worse still, the attempts at humor are juvenile at best and completely flat most of the time.

Howard Bernstein is a former TV producer for CBC, Global and CTV, offers his opinion on the CBC News Network show Connect with Mark Kelley.

When did this site become the Tea Makers?
Mark Kelley is an engaging host and reporter. The few segments I’ve watched were interesting.
e.g. A segment with a nurse that previously had H1N1 answering questions in a mall and online.
Plus online segments like
Facebook democracy,

Also checked out “The Fix: Multicultural food bank” which looks interesting.

Now, can the 2-hour long program be improved? Probably.
I am sure Mark thinks quick and will try to tune and fix the program quickly to make it great to watch on TV and make the segments wonderful to watch online.
Good luck Mark.
