I think Bart's idea of the half hour in each region.... That gives us a chance to have a go at it, so we see the best of what we can get out of each region. That, historically from Newfoundland, is how we have produced national icons, by starting small, by getting the word out, and it becoming a national show and producing stars. That seems to be the template. And I think that could probably work again if we were given the opportunity to get the best regionally and then take it from there.
