W Network

Was the W Network taken over by the people who own Global? It appears that most of Global's Prime Time shows are also being aired on W?

Actually, its the other way around- the company (Corus Entertainment) that owns W Network bought Global and all the specialty channels they owned. Showcase also airs several Global shows, this is something these big conglomerates like to do (Bell does it as well)- spread programming around to as many channels as possible.
