Some notes since the schedules were released:

- NBC is moving American Ninja Warrior to Monday 9:00pm starting next week while new episodes return on June 18. Assuming that CTV follows suit, they will either move The Detail for another encore run to 8:00pm or schedule something else.

- Tuesday nights will be a revolving door with new and returning series. Season 5 of MasterChef Canada concludes on June 19 at 9:00pm. Season 6 of The Amazing Race Canada premieres on July 3 at 8:00pm. Carter makes its CTV debut on July 24 at 9:00pm. Rather late, but I assume that this is when the series finishes its first season run on Bravo. They already run back-to-back Big Bang fillers on Tuesday at 8:00pm. So if one does the math, I wonder what CTV will be filling those holes with...

- As expected, once American Ninja Warrior moves back to Monday nights, that clears the way for Quantico to air in simulcast on Friday 8:00pm in simulcast with ABC until early August. New ABC series Take Two airs Thursday 10:00pm starting June 21.

- Friday 9:00pm is filled with another CanCon encore, the short 6-episode run of The Disappearance. More CanCon encores with Cardinal on Sunday at 10:00pm starting from season 1.

- CBS announced that they will be burning off the remaining seven episodes of cancelled sitcom Me, Myself & I (which aired on CTV early in the fall) along with five episodes of another cancelled sitcom, Living Biblically (which aired on CTV Two midseason) Saturday evenings starting July 7 over three weeks (through July 21). CTV and CTV Two are both running movies on Saturdays, so clearly there’s time to fill for either channel and air them all in simulcast.

- World of Dance gets bumped to CTV Two once NBC moves the show to Wednesdays starting July 25 and episodes expand to two hours for the remainder of its summer run.

- Match Game will end up getting bumped to another timeslot after four weeks, as it comes into conflict with season 2 of NBC sitcom Trial & Error with back-to-back episodes starting July 19.

- Although not indicated in the attached schedules, CTV Two on Wednesday nights have back-to-back reruns of The Goldbergs in simulcast with ABC, followed by the season 4 encore of 19-2 and simulcast reruns of Shark Tank through July.

Looks like the shelved episode of Code Black will be shown this Monday at 8pm.

Sorry if this was told somewhere else.

Sorry if this was told somewhere else.

It wasn't, but thanks for noticing. CTV initially scheduled reruns of The Detail mondays at 10pm, then NBC swapped Bear Grylls and ANW now starts at 9pm, and finally, Detail pilot will be shown the following monday at 8pm.

With Masterchef Canada finale tuesday June 19, looks like CTV found the perfect replacement show for the following tuesday, June 26... Just kidding ! 2 hours of TBBT reruns... while Ontario and Vancouver gets the final season of Orphan Black on CTV Two... NOT FAIR ! The Amazing Product Placement Canada premieres July 3rd at 8pm, but that still means the following hour will be TBBT reruns until Bravo's Carter premieres.

[InMontreal]

After CBS is done on saturday June 30 with Ransom (s-Global, double episode!), CBS is burning off remaining episodes of sitcoms Me Myself & I (x2) and Living Biblically (x2) on July 7-14-21, both of which aired on CTV/CTV2 this season.

On July 7, CTV programmed Hallmark's TV Movies series Murder She Baked episodes 4 & 5 (I thought CTV was done with those!), while CTV2 programmed the Corner Gas movie. Gotta up that cancon quota, I guess? Sure CTV, continue with those 1 or 2 hours of TBBT reruns in primetime to patch scheduling holes, that will help equilibrate your cancon quota...

- NBC is moving back American Ninja Warrior to Monday 8:00pm, where it should have remained this whole time. NBC did the show no favors with the timeslot change, as ratings have taken a hit. All this does for CTV is push encores of The Detail back to 10:00pm based on the original summer schedule they released last month.

- Will either CTV or CTV Two ever get to burning off sitcoms Me, Myself & I and Living Biblically? Perhaps, as more slots will open up later in the summer and closer to September. In the meantime, CTV Two is going back to Castle reruns Tuesday at 8:00pm in place of The Flash. They continue to fulfill their CanCon quota with movies on Fridays and Saturdays. Over on CTV, it’s Big Bang reruns as usual on Tuesdays to keep the bench warm until Bravo original series Carter makes its debut on July 24. Meanwhile, they are doubling up on Corner Gas Aminated episodes Sunday at 8:00pm and 8:30pm.

- To make room for season 2 of Trial & Error starting Thursday, July 19, CTV will be airing Match Game (pre-ABC) Wednesdays at 9:00pm starting July 18 in place of Criminal Minds fillers, and while MasterChef continues with one hour episodes through mid-August, when it expands back to two hours once again. Only catch: Trial & Error is pre-empted on August 2 for an NFL game so CTV will have to work out some sort of its scheduling magic for its final week on the air as MasterChef goes back to airing two-hour episodes starting August 22.

- CTV opted to bench encores of CanCon series Cardinal on Sunday at 10:00pm for season 3 of Motive, another CanCon series that concluded two years ago. They will probably turn up elsewhere on the schedule at some point...

Quick rundown of scheduling notes:

CTV
- American Ninja Warrior (s-NBC) - Monday 8:00pm (until September 10)
- The Detail (Season 1 encore of 10 episodes) - Monday 10:00pm (until August 27)
- Carter (Second window run of Bravo original series) - Tuesday 9:00pm (starts July 24, runs until mid-to-late September)
- Making It (s-NBC) - Tuesday 10:00pm (starts July 31, runs until September 18)
- MasterChef (s-FOX) - Wednesday 8:00pm (until September 19; two hour episodes return August 22)
- Match Game (pre-ABC) - Wednesday 9:00pm (starts July 18, runs through August 15), presumably back to Thursday 9:00pm in late August once Trial & Error concludes
- Trial & Error (s-NBC) (10 episodes) - Thursday 9:00pm and 9:30pm (starts July 19, runs until August 23)
- The Disappearance (encore - 6 episodes) - Friday 9:00pm (until July 27)
- Corner Gas Animated (Second window run of Comedy original series) - Sunday 8:00pm and 8:30pm (through August 12)

Season 3 of Code Black (s-CBS) concludes with its series finale on Wednesday, July 18 at 10:00pm
Season 3 of Quantico (s-ABC) concludes with its series finale on Friday, August 3 at 8:00pm

With both series wrapping up, there will be at least a couple of gaps to fill in the schedule.




CTV Two
- Orphan Black (Season 5) - Tuesday 9:00pm (until July 31)
- World of Dance (s-NBC) - Wednesday 8:00pm (two-hour episodes begin July 25 and run until August 8), Wednesday 9:00pm (two-hour episodes resume August 15 and run until September 12)
- Wynonna Earp (Season 1) - Thursday 8:00pm (until August 16)
- The Launch (Season 1 encore) - Thursday 9:00pm (until August 16)
- Life Sentence (Second window run) - Sunday 8:00pm (until September 2)
- Younger (Season 2) - Sunday 9:00pm and 9:30pm (until July 15)

Season 4 encore of 19-2 concludes Wednesday, July 18 at 9:00pm

Biggest change for CTV Two is World of Dance, which moves over from CTV, since they do not have room once it expands to two hours and moves to Wednesdays as CTV already has MasterChef, and two-hour episodes are set to resume in August.

Similar to CTV, more gaps to fill beginning in August.

- CTV opted to bench encores of CanCon series Cardinal on Sunday at 10:00pm for season 3 of Motive

Oh FFS !
When Cardinal S2 premiered on thursdays at 9pm in january, I had too many shows to PVR, and there was no saturday reruns for the first 2 weeks due to NFL simsub reruns (I missed the 3rd saturday rerun), so I counted on CTV to rerun the season shortly... but these Hallmark movies with a Criminal Minds filler (then The Detail) kept being scheduled, while the last 3 Cardinal episodes are now the oldest ones remaining on my PVR. Come June, Cardinal reruns on sundays... S1. Be patient, 6 more weeks and S2 will come... and gone just like that !

... and I already expressed my frustration about Orphan Black S5 scheduled on CTV Two while the main CTV network is stuck with TBBT reruns.

[InMontreal]

Take Two‘s Rachel Bilson and Eddie Cibrian will be on the case two hours earlier: Starting with next Thursday’s episode, the ABC detective procedural will air at 8/7c.

The series — from Castle executive producers Andrew W. Marlowe and Terri Edda Miller — stars Cibrian as a lone-wolf private investigator who partners up with a fresh-out-of-rehab actress (Bilson).

Next week’s installment features a mini Castle reunion, with guest star Seamus Dever (aka Castle detective Kevin Ryan) as a distraught husband and father who turns to the P.I. duo to help stop a hitman from fulfilling a contract.

The Gong Show on ABC, which Citytv simsubs, moves to 10pm. But it's a "huh hoh" at CTV as Take Two at 8pm conflicts with CBS's TBBT & YS reruns in simsub, and the outcome is a no-brainer : NBC's Trial & Error in simsub at 9pm, and Take2 remains at 10pm in post-release. What else...

This could only be for one week, depending on ratings, as it is only a one week change so far. So if they don't do better, it will switch back the following week.

Saturday 1st and Sunday Sept 2nd starting at noon, CTV will marathon all 18 episodes season 2 of This Is Us, with a 6pm local news break.
By sunday 9pm, ABC has football, so CTV don't know what to schedule, so, take a guess... no, not 2x Big Bang fillers, the other filler... That's it, CM.

Mondays 10pm, CTV has already reached The Detail season finale (Aug 27), so on Sept 3rd, Zap2It lists an unidentified episode of Bravo's Carter, which airs on CTV tuesdays 9pm, episode 6 is scheduled for Aug 28 (10 produced), makes me thinking of a day change, but there's nothing for CTV to simsub on tuesday Sept 4.

This coming 12th season of The Big Bang Theory will be it's last...But no worries, repeat of the shows will be on CTV all the time for at least the next 20 years! ;P

Mondays 10pm, CTV has already reached The Detail season finale (Aug 27), so on Sept 3rd, Zap2It lists an unidentified episode of Bravo's Carter, which airs on CTV tuesdays 9pm, episode 6 is scheduled for Aug 28 (10 produced), makes me thinking of a day chance, but there's nothing for CTV to simsub on tuesday Sept 4.

They will likely squeeze in the remaining four episodes of Carter over two weeks - with episodes on Monday and Tuesday each week, and the season finale airing on September 11.

There are the Primetime Emmys on Monday, September 17. And most likely, on Tuesday, September 18, it will be the season finale of The Amazing Race Canada followed by their usual After the Race special and the season finale of the recently renewed NBC reality series Making It.

NBC opted for a "Paley Center Salutes This Is Us" at 10pm, which CTV will ignore. Instead, CTV is really, really spoiling us that night with... drumroll ... OK, cut the crap, it'll be 3.5 hours of TBBT reruns. This is a case where it would be less insulting to schedule a "(something) in the Vineyard" movie-series filler there.
