King of Kensington (Partially found Canadian sitcom;
King of Kensington was a Canadian sitcom that aired on CBC from 1975 to 1980. The show, set in the Kensington Market neighborhood of Toronto, is considered one of the most iconic and memorable depictions of the city on television. Despite this, however, only the first season ever saw a home release, and all remaining seasons are lost to the public. The show followed affable shopkeeper Larry King as he dealt with everyday conflicts in his neighborhood, always approaching problems with humor and understanding. The show is notable for its diverse cast and for featuring cameos of many recognizable Canadian actors before they achieved international acclaim.
A statue of actor Al Waxman, who played the titular Larry King, can be found in Kensington Market’s Bellevue Park.
