Looks like Corus is redirecting viewers to one of their flagship channels, like W or Showcase, for every first run scripted shows. CMT's Nashville (series finale for July 26), some CW shows (Charmed, All American, Crazy Ex on W, Supergirl + Legacies on Showcase), the OWN scripted shows Bell didn't want, all new Nickelodeon shows premieres on YTV, Lifetime reality shows on Slice?... Eventually, Corus announced a few years ago they'll be shutting down some channels, already started with Sundance last march which I guess licence expires, selling back Séries+ & Historia to Bell... what's next ?
