George, my love.

I'd just like to confess my love for George Strouboulopoulos. He is an ex-VJ for Much Music and has now moved on the hosting his own show The Hour on CBC. He interviews politicians, activists, celebrities and everyone in between. Unfortunately, you ahve to be 18 to attend the show, so I can't meet him until December :( He truly is amazing. His show airs at 11 pm and catches the attention of the youth in order to inform the of current world issues. Everything from the graphics, music, and even the style of his of his clothes attract the youth (his good looks help too). He makes sure that the mix of his guests are enough celebrities to even out politicians and such in order to keep their attention, however other more mature youth watch to see these politicians and activist yet the comedy is a nice touch. He introduces each guest with "The Bio", a short background on them. He alsodoes other segments such as "Best Story Ever" which is introduced by squeaky voiced clay people then his guests are taped telling their best story ever. He is very envolved with the audience, whether it be taking pictures after the show and taking time to talk, to his interactive website at CBC.ca, you can e-mail him, he has an updated blog and also has other seperate websites, facebook, myspace and all the other gizmos available today. I love watching this show. Keeping up to date with current issues is easy thanks to him and the awesome people at CBC.
