This was a music video show around 1983/1984. They played less rock and top 40, but more new wave and rare videos. Videos you can't seem to download anymore, but they did exist. Not sure if it was 1/2 hour or 1 hour. It was on at about the same time as Video Hits on CBC (when Dan Gallagher was the VJ before he went to Much Music). And I think City TV had a show too (Toronto Rocks). I wish I could remember the name of the VJ on Flipside. It was on at around 4:00 or 5:00 and we would watch it every day after school. I contacted OMNI about the show but got no reply.

Wish I could help, but I'm drawing a blank. I do remember watching the show quite often as it was my fave music show, along with The New Music. I still can't get over the fact that J.D. Roberts is on CNN nowadays....

Did a quick Google and found a Wiki entry for a show on CBC in the mid-70's......

But from the acts mentioned, I don't think this is the same show you're looking for.
