    The Worst Film Ever

    Sameer Callahan

    It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

    One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

    This Canadian produced western series had an interesting concept and I only wish someone had thought of it back in the day when I was a kid and westerns were what ruled television. Bordertown was a place that straddled the 49th parallel which is Canadian-American border as fixed by the treaty that gave the USA Oregon territory way back in 1846. A little cross border cooperation in regard to law enforcement was a practical solution to a lot of problems.Weekly, Marshal Jack Craddock (Richard Comar), and RCMP Corporal Clive Bennet (John Brennan), cooperated far more than the governments of the United States and Canada were wont to do back in the day. Until the 20th century the USA had this peculiar notion that the Canadians were just waiting to be annexed by us and would welcome liberation from the British Empire/Commonwealth. That in fact the nation was founded by folks of British descent who were fleeing Tories from the American Revolution and French folks who wanted their own autonomy in any event didn't faze a lot of American policymakers.But in Bordertown bad guys were bad guys no matter what side of the 49th parallel they hung their hats. So these two cooperated out of necessity.I'm pleasantly surprised to see just how many fans this show had. I so wish it had a longer run.

    Bordertown, the Family Channel original show, is now available on DVD. Go to Amazon and type in "Bordertown" as your search. The DVD's are very affordable and are well done. They don't have any extra features, but who needs them for this price. This was a great show that lasted 3 seasons. It is watchable by children and adults. I am hoping that they will put out all of the episodes on DVD eventually. I wish they would put out the other Family Channel shows; Zorro, Rin-tin-tin, and Black Stallion. Although, this was my favorite and I am very glad they choose this one to release.

    I watch the reruns on the history and lonestar channel.I was very interested in who came up with this unique idea of bordertown,the story lines that draws a person back in time, the atmosphere,the acting is wonderful, it makes me proud to be a Canadian.This show is very family friendly!I never realized that the series was cancelled after only 3 seasons.There is not much information on the projects that the stars of bordertown are involved in today.I hope maybe someday they would do a reunion show of Bordertown.I wish that the show was on longer than 1/2 hour. It deserves more air time than that! Love this show!

    I was just a little girl when this show was in its prime, but I remember it so clearly! We still have an old, fuzzy tape from when it was shown on "the Family Channel" in the US. That was prime time quality entertainment. My parents would watch it with me and my brother, and they didn't have to worry about language, violence, or sex. The characters were lovable (my brother and I were Marie and Bennet one Halloween). They were full of integrity and you could be assured that in every episode, justice would prevail! The idea of a bordertown was interesting, too. I enjoyed as a little girl gazing at Bennet-- what a cutie! Of course I always wanted to be Marie, the beautiful French Canadian doctor! My Dad loved Crattick and did a mean impression of him! So nostalgic! And the music...ah, the music! It was so good, and I wish I could get a hold of it somewhere! Someone needs to find these old reruns and restore them, and sell them. What a gem! I miss it!
