Send us Fan MailAs Canadian thanksgiving comes and goes, Zoie Palmer is thankful she's playing Jann Arden’s sensible sister Max on JANN. The Calgary-based sitcom is in its third season Monday nights on CTV.

Jackson and Max Minghella in the “Saw” inspired feature film “Spiral.”Get to know Palmer a little better -- including her choice for favourite all-time TV theme song -- on this chatty podcast conversation.
