Listener & other news



CTV Announced Aug 6 that it is cancelling the Listener.  They have given us 65 episodes and 5 great seasons.  The last episode is on at  9 PM Aug 18/14.  THE LISTENER has been licensed in over 120 markets - including the U.S. (ION Television), U.K., Italy, Spain, Portugal, Argentina, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Poland, Brazil and Turkey - and is seen in 33 languages worldwide. On average there was 1.1 Million viewers every week on CTV.  I have enjoyed the journey from being a paramedic to a full cop, and solving crime. 

In the final episode, an epic story that has threaded its way through all five seasons comes to a gratifying conclusion as secrets from Toby's (Craig Olejnik) past are finally brought to light. Also Michelle (Lauren Lee Smith), Toby, and Dev (Rainbow Sun Francks) find themselves in the extremely uncomfortable position of investigating their own boss. On clandestine orders from Judge Samuel Griffin (Bruce Gray) and Deputy Commissioner Earl Bamford (Brian Paul) of the IIB, the team must look into Becker's (Anthony Lemke) dealings with Curtis Maynard (Noam Jenkins), a disgraced former cop with connections to drug dealing.

In other news the networks are doing  shows at 2 different times through the season, and giving them 2 night premieres.  It is happening for Big Bang Theory (Mon for 5 weeks), Saving hope, Forever, (2 night premier),   Hope we can keep it straight.  I looked at the CBC website, its hard to navigate, and I will direct you to search cbc.ca for info on shows not shown here.
