Midseason additions to the schedule include new series Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea, The Finder, The Firm, Napoleon Dynamite and The 2-2, as well as returning favourites Bob's Burgers and The Celebrity Apprentice.

New series descriptions available in the press release.

 

[DTVGuy]

A few hand-me-downs from Citytv and a few (weak) additions would make this the wimpiest fall schedule to date. Sounds like Shaw Media is finally having an impact on Global.

It won't be long before Global's at #3

More local news

The Noon News in Calgary just announced expanded local news on weekends.
Saturday Morning News goes to three hours, from 7 to 10 a.m.
A new Sunday morning program begins, running 8 to 10 a.m.
Has anyone heard of similar changes coming to other local Global stations?

 

[Dr.Dave]

This is from a press release from a few days ago that I never got around to posting:

Toronto: The Morning Show with hosts Liza Fromer, Dave Gerry, Kris Reyes, and two cast members to be announced at a later date when they begin broadcasting live from Shaw Media's street-front studio currently under construction at 121 Bloor Street East. The Morning Show will air weekdays from 6-9am ET, and will launch early this fall.

[B]Global Maritimes[/B]   6-8:30am AT - Weekdays (launching late-November)
[B]Global Winnipeg[/B]    6-9:00am CT - Weekdays (launching mid-September)
[B]Global Regina[/B]      6:30-8:30am CT - Weekdays (launching late-August)
[B]Global Saskatoon[/B]   6:30-8:30am CT - Weekdays (launching mid-September)

In addition, Global Edmonton and Global Calgary will both be expanding their current morning shows to seven days-a-week with the inclusion of Sundays, running from 7-10am MT beginning this September in both markets.
