and the pickup looks a lot like the one my neigbhor had when I was a kid!
Ya know I haven't been lucky with these but maybe this will change?
I remember this show that used to air in my home province of Quebec, probably late 80s, probably early 90s. It's a bit of a vague period for me. I didn't actually like it much because it was live action on the channel that usually aired cartoons and it annoyed me but now I'm curious.
It feature this guy (I'd say late 20s, early 30s, very generic jeans and t-shirt blue collar look) who I think had been adopted and he was looking to find the identity of his birth mother. He would go around the country in a pickup truck, possibly red (though my neigbhor had a red pickup truck at the time so I might be conflating it?) and each episode began with a shot of a tarot cards and a woman explaining its meaning. It's possible the tarot deck was a clue to find his mom?
I think he finds out he has a sister and his real name was 'Sun'?
I think the show was Canadian because I CLEARLY remember the pickup truck going down an empty road in the middle of this super flat field in almost every episode. Possibly the opening?
Any help would be appreciated.
