Episode 69
Fresh off the Canadian Upfronts, we kick off our "Battle of the Network Stars: Program Executives Division" with Justin Stockman, VP Content Development & Programming and Pat DiVittorio, VP Programming, CTV & Specialty. They outline CTV and Bell's goals for the 2022-2023 season. New US imports include East New York, Rookie Blue: Feds and Alaska with Hilary Swank and later a Night Court remake set for mid-season. Bell also has plenty of Canadian originals set to join Transplant on their schedule. The return of The Amazing Race Canada after a two-year pandemic pause should jolt CTV's summer. Will it all be enough to insure a 22nd-straight year at the top of the Canadian network ratings?
