The Royal Canadian Air Farce, one of Canada’s longest-running comedy troupes, is wrapping up its weekly television show next season.

The sketch comedy show will produce nine shows in the fall, then end with a New Years Eve special.

It made its CBC Radio debut in December 1973, producing more than 600 radio broadcasts over 24 years. After brief stints on television in the 1980s, Air Farce took up its permanent place on the CBC-TV roster in 1993. It ran on radio and television for four seasons before moving exclusively to TV in 1997. In 2007, the show returned to a live format with Air Farce Live.

CBC Television is on the hunt for someone to develop new comedy programs for the network. And it’s casting its eyes on the Internet.

The job description makes it clear that trolling the Internet for new ideas and people is part of the plan. The position “monitors and assesses comedy talent appearing on-line with an eye to CBC Comedy’s needs — new writers, actors, on-line co-prods, original comedy production for CBC on-line.”

Why don’t we give whoever this person will end up being a head-start?

What is your favourite online Canadian comedy show? (i.e. as amazing as Mr. Deity is, it ain’t Canadian).

For instance, Galacticast, a weekly comedy sci-fi series produced in Montreal by Rudy Jahchan and Casey McKinnon (pictured here). I also really enjoy Tom Green’s nightly Internet talk-show from his living room, but somehow the fact that his living room is in California probably disqualifies him.
