Anne of Green Gables was voted one of the top five favourite Canadian shows of the past 25 years by TV viewers across the country.  This was the result of a vote that had people pick from a list of Canadian shows in honour of the Gemini’s silver anniversary.

The outcome, which ultimately crowned Degrassi as the top show, was announced during the broadcast of Saturday’s Gemini Awards, hosted by Glee star Cory Monteith.

In the leadup to the Gemini’s, viewers could cast their vote via twitter, Facebook or the website www.favetvshow.ca and pick from a list of 25 Canadian productions that a group of critics compiled.  The list offered a wide range of programs, from comedies such as Trailer Park Boys, to the children’s special Mr. Dressup, to the dramatic series Slings & Arrows.
