CTV recently unveiled their summer schedule, and one of the highlights is the return of the popular reality show “The Amazing Race Canada,” the most-watched Canadian television series on record.
Overall, the schedule includes 12 new and returning series.
CTV’s summer schedule also features fan-favourite returning hits including the CTV original series “The Listener” (May 26th), as well as “Masterchef” (May 26th), “Anger Management” (May 27th), and “Hot In Cleveland” (June 15th). CTV also remains the destination for live events and award shows as well as hit movies, delivering The 2014 Billboard Music Awards (May 18th), Much’s CTV takeover for a super simulcast of the 2014 Much Music Video Awards (June 15th), and the Canadian broadcast premiere of “Transformers: Dark Of The Moon” (June 8th).
This summer, CTV also puts the spotlight on an amazing year from Bell Media’s specialty division with encore presentations of the nuanced, character-driven Bravo original series “19-2” (June 5). The most-watched Space original series on record, thriller “Bitten,” and Season 2 of the acclaimed Space original series “Orphan Black” are also set to join the schedule later this summer.
“With a new roster of teams and stellar new challenges, ‘The Amazing Race Canada’ is sure to again have viewers racing right along with the competitors from the starting line to the pit stops and everything in between,” said Mike Cosentino, Senior Vice-President of Programming at CTV Networks, in an official press release. “Joined by a strong mix of original series, fan favourites, exciting new shows, live events, and blockbuster movies, CTV is set to bring the best in summer television entertainment to Canadians.”
