Men With Brooms debuts; this is a TV series based on the sort-of-a-hit Canadian movie from a while back which still has a lot of good feeling directed at it despite the fact that it wasn't really amazing or anything. Mostly we think this is because the makers of Brooms were willing to pay for trailer space in front of Lord of the Rings and act like their movie was a big deal. For reasons we cannot adequately explain, it was nice going to see three hours of hobbits and orcs prefaced with an ad for a romantic comedy about curling. We do not know if this affection will translate to the sitcom version. (CBC, 8:30 p.m.)
