While I was visiting in Ontario, I happened to watch Train 48.Loved it. I can hardly wait for it to come out on DVD, it would be great to have the series.I found the humor amusing and the acting real. I got caught up in the lives of the train riders. I found their experiences something I could relate too and found it humorous. Dry humor, very Canadian.I liked the show so much, I tried to get Canadian TV here in Tucson, of course it didn't work.I'm just waiting for it to be released.

they plugged this show like nobody's business before it came out, and of course i got sorta interested... so i watched it. it kind of drew me in- the interweaving plotlines, the conflicts, the references to the top subjects of the day. it was great. and the characters are so unique... like johnny, brenda, pete, randy.... my favourite [and i'm sorry to admit, one of the reasons i watched it in the first place..] is zach.anyways, the show can get sort of monotonous at times, but overall it's really quite good.

This show is great you, a bit like heroin, you need a fix every day, and you get that fix everyday cause the show is filmed in the mornings and shown at 7:00 everyday of the week. Its innovative and extremely Canadian, the characters are fresh and funny. You'll fall in love with some of them and love to hate others. All and all it's worth every minute.

I'm a loyal viewer of Train 48. Haven't missed a single episode. While it was a little rough going the first couple of weeks, as the cast tried to iron out the quirks, habits and eccentricities of their characters, they've all now settled into their roles and are no longer the one-dimensional stereotypes they were in the beginning.I appreciate that the entirely improvised show is sketched out and performed early in the day, then edited and put on the air at 7 or 7:30 pm across Canada, Monday through Friday. They even did a show on Canada Day! Now how's that for being dedicated professionals, eh?This is a great concept. Very well executed. And while it is only a 13 episode series, I sincerely hope it comes back for another 13 this fall or early next year.Kelly J. Compeau
