Quest for the Sea
I've been watching repeats of the series Quest for the Sea on PBS (Long Island). Quest for the Sea is a "reality show" like Frontier House, only it's set in a 1930s Newfoundland outport. The women do housework. The men fish. Last week they didn't salt the cod properly and it got maggoty, which was kind of like a horror show. One of the participants is a professor at Memorial University, which profiled him.
