• Genre: Comedy
• Plot: 'The Search For the Great Canadian Sitcom Stops Here.' - Broadcast Week; ; From acclaimed Canadian director Bruce McDonald ('Highway 61', 'The Tournament') and Tony Award(R) winner Don McKellar ('The Drowsy Chaperone'), imagine a sitcom as co-produced by Marshall McLuhan and Dr. Timothy Leary and you have 'Twitch City', a trippy subtext message in which the lead character might be a television. Indeed, with most North American viewers clocking in at north of forty hours per week, couch latke Curtis is merely living the dream by doing nothing else but watching... and watching... and watching.; ; Produced in the low-rent death throes of the last century and aired on Bravo and Canada's CBC, 'Twitch City's' episodic behavior, set in Toronto is graced by cable-able co-stars Molly Parker ('Deadwood') and Callum Keith Rennie ('Battlestar Galactica'), who try to mitigate for the hapless Curtis. With regulars Mark McKinney and Bruce McCulloch ('The Kids in the Hall') and guest appearances by the likes of Joyce DeWitt and Jennifer Jason Leigh, 'Twitch City' scratches that prime time itch.
