The Canadian comedy-drama show Less Than Kind stars Jesse Camacho as Sheldon Blecher, a teen who grew up in a loving but dysfunctional Jewish family in Winnipeg. The show also features Maury Chaykin and Wendel Meldrum as Sheldon's parents, Benjamin Arthur as his older brother Josh, and Nancy Sorel as his aunt Clara. The Blechers struggle to run a driving school out of their home in Winnipeg's North End, which is getting worse. Less Than Kind made its debut on Citytv on October 13, 2008, and then moved to HBO Canada in February 2010. The entire cast of the critically acclaimed series won Canadian Comedy Awards in 2009 and 2010. Less Than Kind won the 2010 Gemini Award for Best Comedy Program or Series and the first award for Best Comedy Series at the 2013 Canadian Screen Awards. The title sequence and logo for Less Than Kind were both based on a famous highway sign at Winnipeg's Confusion Corner, which has arrows pointing in every direction. The name of the series comes from the first line that Hamlet says: "A little more than kin, and less than kind."
