What made Seed sag?

From Bill Brioux of TV Feeds My Family:

Getting to the root of Seed’s slow start

Seed takes comedy gold to the bank

From Brad Oswald of the Winnipeg Free Press:

  • You can take comedy gold to the bank
    YOU know how it is with banks these days — you keep making deposits, but the rate of return is so low that you feel like you’re not producing any positive results. Harry doesn’t have that problem. Of course, that might have something to do with the kind of banking Harry does. Read more.
