"No Cultural References"

Those wily Canadians, they manage to get everywhere. Next thing you know they'll be all over Hollywood. This time, though, they're in North Korea.

It's fascinating. Fourteen short mini-episodes. I watched all of them in one sitting, and everyone I recommended it to did the same. Pay attention to the tea girl, to the traffic, and to the differences between the two sides of the DMZ. Amusing observations about Abbey Road and the Sex Pistols, too.

Oh, and before you start to feel superior, North Korea does have a home page.

Yeah, I know.
