has attracted media attention from around the globe. The sitcom has been written up in The Los Angeles Times, The Jerusalem Post, London's Daily Telegraph and The New York Times. Recently, CNN came calling, visiting the west-end Toronto set where the lion's share of the first eight episodes have been shot.

And from this article:

CNN will run a small segment on "Paula Zahn Now" on Thursday at 8 p.m., just hours after "Little Mosque" publicists hand out more 100 kilograms of free halal chickens in downtown Toronto to promote the show.


"Little Mosque on the Prairie," a comedy about Muslims trying to interact with their small-town neighbours in a fictional Canadian prairie town called Mercy, has been receiving the kind of advance buzz that most publicity departments only dream about.


It's been written up in the New York Times, the Houston Chronicle and by The Associated Press, with Stephen Colbert, the fake late-night talk-show host, also taking notice. CNN has also done previous items on "Little Mosque."
