The Vacant Lot

The Vacant Lot was a short-lived comedy sketch show which CBC Television ran for only six episodes starting in December 1993. The Vacant Lot was extended for another 13 episodes, but the CBC later changed their minds and the remaining 13 episodes, although scripted, were never taped. CBC sold the show to Comedy Central, which didn't air the episodes until July 1994. The Vacant Lot was shown for a 4 July marathon on that network. Nick McKinney, a member of The Vacant Lot, is the brother of The Kids in the Hall member and Saturday Night Live veteran Mark McKinney. The show's other cast members were Rob Gfrorer, Vito Viscomi and Paul Greenberg. The Vacant Lot's opening theme music was "Pretty Vacant" by The Sex Pistols.

Hosted by CBC's senior business correspondent Amanda Lang and entrepreneur/investor Kevin O'Leary, the series presents a summary of the day's major business stories in a manner similar to Lang and O'Leary's earlier Business News Network series SqueezePlay. In the opening segment, "The Big 5", Lang introduces the top business stories of the day and O'Leary provides commentary, with Lang often acting as devil's advocate in regards to O'Leary's free-market philosophy.

The remaining segments consist of various interviews and roundtables with businesspeople, economists, journalists and other newsmakers, handled by either Lang alone or both Lang and O'Leary. The show originally aired as a half-hour daily series, starting at 4:30 p.m. Eastern. As of March 1, 2010 The Lang and O'Leary Exchange became an hour-long show starting at 7 p.m., pre-taped earlier in the evening, and aired on the CBC News Network.
