Members Mr. Brightside Posted June 6, 2007 Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 Don't know if you guys remember but I speculated Guiding Light joining Global's daytime lineup after Passions is cancelled. Well, it has just been confirmed from a source from CanWest Global. They will be releasing the new fall schedule and here is the daytime lineup for the Toronto/Ontario market. So come fall, this will be Global daytime: 1PM - Days of our Lives 2PM - As The World Turns 3PM - Guiding Light 4:30 - The Young and the Restless CTV daytime: 1PM - B&B 3PM - GH CHUM daytime (on select CityTV's and A-Channel's): 1PM - AMC 2PM - OLTL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 6, 2007 Administrator Share Posted June 6, 2007 Damn! I was hoping that Global-Toronto would air the DAYS day ahead episode at 3:30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted June 6, 2007 Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 So, PASSIONS won't be available to Canadian audiences?! That sucks! Maybe there will be a PPV package for you "PASSION-atics" up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted June 6, 2007 Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 Interesting. CH, a Global affiliate out of Hamilton had been carrying GL for years. It bodes well for GL in Canada to be on a cross Canada network now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members d_wsb Posted June 6, 2007 Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 really? GL.. well it's already on CH. thanks for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Brightside Posted June 6, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 CH is owned by Global/CanWest. As most of you will learn more tomorrow, CH will be rebranded as E! Canada. It will be like what CTV did with MTV to create a Canadian version of MTV last year. The new CH will be E!, and they'll be airing mostly E! programming during the day and night like E! News, E! True Hollywood Story, The Simple Life and Dr. 90210. In primetime, they will air whatever used to air on CH and new shows that Global cannot fit in their schedule. Toups, I was hoping they would begin airing DOOL a day ahead but I think this scenario works more in the soap fan's favor being that Global will continue to be a 4 soap network as opposed to CTV only airing 2. CTV has proposed to buyout CHUM and thus could acquire the CHUM soaps (AMC, OLTL) and could go head to head with Global by having 4 soaps (CTV: B&B, GH, OLTL and AMC) vs. 4 soaps (Global: Y&R, DOOL, ATWT and GL). As for Passions, there really isn't much hope. My only problem with the Canadian networks is that none of them have agreed to carry Night Shift.

Members SpiritualJunkie Posted June 6, 2007 Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 OMG, are you serious? I'm really glad to hear this! I currently watch Days and ATWT on Global and GL on CH so it'll be nice to just have all those shows on one channel. I'm sad that CH is turning to E!, though! I loved the show "Vanity Insanity"...I don't know if another channel airs that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Brightside Posted June 6, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 6, 2007 They'll probably air it on TVtropolis. CanWest owns Global, CH (soon to be E!) and TVtropolis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
