It seems that, slowly, the message is getting though but slowly:
As of Jan. 28th, one in three people polled had heard about four of the CBC's heavily promoted winter shows: "The Border," "JPod," "Sophie" and "MVP." All of the shows launched in early January.What I find scary about these numbers though is that it implies that less than one third of Canadians may have heard of other CBC Television and Radio programs. I still run into people fairly frequently for whom I have to explain 'what Radio 3 is.' If people don't know about the shows they obviously aren't watching or listening.
That hasn't yet translated into large numbers of Canadians tuning into the shows, however - only 10 per cent of those polled had actually seen "The Border," about an elite team of Canadian border-security officers. That's more viewers than the other shows had managed to attract among those surveyed.
