TORONTO, June 2, 2025 /CNW/ - Today, Global revealed its 2025/26 broadcast season offering featuring seven star-studded new series as well as many of television's most-watched returning hits. Delivering an impressive 16.5 hours of simulcast programming and more scripted content than any other network in primetime this fall, Global's 2025/26 lineup spans every genre and is streaming on STACKTV and the Global TV App.
New this fall on Global is the single-camera workplace comedy DMV. Set at the U.S. Department of Motor Vehicles, DMV stars a brilliant and hilarious ensemble cast including Harriet Dyer, Tim Meadows, Tony Cavalero, Molly Kearney, Gigi Zumbado and Alex Tarranta. Then, joining the FBI-verse and from Emmy ® Award-winning executive producer Dick Wolf, comes CIA starring Tom Ellis as a fast-talking, rule-breaking loose cannon CIA case officer. Next up is Sheriff Country starring Morena Baccarin as straight-shooting sheriff Mickey Fox, the stepsister of Cal Fire's division chief Sharon Leone (Diane Farr of Fire Country) in an expansion of the Fire Country universe. Lastly, The Road is a new singing competition series from executive producers Taylor Sheridan, Blake Shelton and Keith Urban and follows GRAMMY ® Award winner Urban on his journey to discover the next big artist with the help of "tour manager," GRAMMY ® Award-winning country artist Gretchen Wilson. Full series descriptions of Global's new series for the fall are available here.
Global's fall lineup also features television's #1 hits including #1 comedy Ghosts, #1 late night show Saturday Night Live, fresh off celebrating its 50 th anniversary, and #1 reality show Survivor *, back for its 49 th season this fall and what promises to be a legendary 50 th season in the spring. Other top 20-ranked shows returning to Global this fall include 9-1-1, FBI, Matlock, NCIS, NCIS: Origins and Elsbeth *. Also, Canadian-made Murder in a Small Town returns for a second season with Oscar ® winner Marcia Gay Harden joining the cast and popular Canadian original true crime series Crime Beat is back for a seventh season.
Global's 2025/26 offering wouldn't be complete without Global News, which is home to Canada's #1 national newscast, Global National **, hosted by Canadian Screen Award winner Dawna Friesen, and The West Block, Canada's #1 Political Show in total audience*** airing Sunday mornings. In addition, The Morning Show, hosted by Carolyn Mackenzie and Jeff McArthur, continues to be Canada's #1 Canadian News/Lifestyle morning show and saw a year-over-year audience growth of 17% reaching 1.2 million Canadians weekly****, delivering audiences almost two times higher than Your Morning, and over two times higher than Breakfast Television *****.
The fresh content continues with more exciting new series joining the schedule mid-season starting with America's Culinary Cup, a new cooking competition series featuring the most decorated chefs in America and hosted and executive produced by Emmy ® Award-nominated food expert Padma Lakshmi. Then, Y: Marshals (working title) is a new drama joining Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone family of shows and stars Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton. And finally, unscripted series, Harlan Coben's Final Twist, which features best-selling author Coben, with over 90 million books sold globally and multiple scripted series, as he steps into the true-crime television genre for the first time. Full series descriptions of Global's new mid-season series are available here. Also, bolstering Global's schedule mid-season is the return of hit series including Global Original Family Law, Watson and Hollywood Squares.
"This spring, Global was the only conventional network to experience year-over-year audience growth seeing a 7% increase in core primetime viewing******, delivering 12 of the top 20 programs – more than any other network*," said Jennifer Abrams, Senior Vice President, Programming and Multiplatform, Corus Entertainment. "With Global's new acquisitions for the upcoming broadcast season featuring the most-coveted series coming out of this year's L.A. screenings, paired with some of the most-watched returning series, Global is well-positioned to be the leader in bringing Canadian viewers what they want to see on their screens, entertaining audiences all year long."

Rise & Rank with RankPast Podcast -- Created Entirely by AI
VICTORIA, BC, June 6, 2025 /CNW/ - What happens when you hand the mic to artificial intelligence and ask it to make local SEO... fun? You get the Rise & Rank with RankPast Podcast —a bold new show that's 100% powered by AI, from research and scripting to the voices, laughs, awkward silences, and even the marketing materials (including this press release). The podcast kicks off with a Google Business Profile edition, which launched Tuesday, June 3rd. This 14-episode weekly series is built for local business owners who want to master their Google Business Profiles—without sitting through another boring SEO webinar. Each bite-sized episode delivers smart, strategic tips in a style that's punchy, witty, and surprisingly human. The hosts? AI-generated personalities named Kai and Aileen (both conveniently featuring "AI" in their names). Their sidekick? A snorty little pug named Arti—short for artificial and based on the team's real-life office pug. This trio serves up SEO tips with personality, purpose, and a few well-timed umms and ahhs—also AI-generated. Rise & Rank is built on a foundation of AI-driven content, using tools like ChatGPT and advanced text-to-voice generators for everything from scriptwriting to vocal performances. The show's cover art, visuals, and promos? Also AI-made. Behind the scenes, human editors ensure the final product is crisp, clear, and fun to listen to. "We wanted to show what's possible when AI is used with intention," says RankPast Digital's founder Reese Richards, the show's producer. "This isn't just a tech experiment—it's a real educational resource, crafted by SEOs, powered by AI, and refined by humans who care about the experience." New episodes drop every Tuesday, covering everything from setting up your Google Business Profile to flagging spam listings and decoding Insights—served with the sass, smarts, and humour of a morning talk show (if that talk show had zero human hosts). "I see AI podcasts becoming a new way to share knowledge while making learning fun and effective," Richards adds. About RankPast Digital: RankPast is a digital marketing agency based on Vancouver Island, Canada, helping local businesses grow through SEO, automation, and AI-powered strategy.
