Corus touts new stars, old hits in plans for Global, specialty channels Home, Flavour
TORONTO - Corus Entertainment is touting new stars and returning hits to its flagship channel Global and specialty networks including Home, Flavour, History, National Geographic and Slice. That includes the first full season of programming for newly branded cooking channel Flavour and design and renovation channel Home, which launched in December after Corus lost rights to carry Food Network Canada and HGTV Canada, now with Rogers. Among the previously announced shows on the 2025/26 Home lineup are 'Building Baeumler,' starring renovation stars Bryan and Sarah Baeumler, and 'Life is Messy,' a series from Scott Brothers Entertainment about overwhelmed homeowners. Also on the way this fall are two budget-friendly offerings from Canadians — Natalie Chong with 'Rentovation' and self-taught DIYer Kristen Coutts with 'Beer Budget Reno.' Flavour Network's Canadian shows include 'Halloween Bakeshop' and 'Holiday Bakeshop,' hosted by Canadian actress and comedian Lauren Ash, and a 12th season of 'Top Chef Canada.' The Corus plans come as Rogers' detailed plans for HGTV Canada and Food Network Canada that it described as 'bigger and more impactful' than what came before. Last June, Rogers announced it had scored 'milestone' multi-year deals with Warner Bros. Discovery to secure rights to several lifestyle brands from Corus Entertainment and Bell Media, including HGTV, Food Network and Discovery. In December, Corus launched Flavour Network and Home Network to replace the channel positions for Food Network Canada and HGTV Canada, which debuted under the Rogers banner in January. The programming details land after Corus reported a second-quarter loss with revenues down 10 per cent compared to a year ago. Corus said other returning Flavour shows include 'Morimoto's Sushi Master,' 'Adam Richman Eats Britain,' 'Kitchen Nightmares' and 'Wild Game Kitchen.' Over on Showcase, Corus' deal with NBCUniversal will bring the Greg Daniels mockumentary 'The Paper,' starring Domhnall Gleeson; the espionage thriller 'The Copenhagen Test' with Simu Liu; and the spy thriller 'PONIES' with Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson. Also coming is the new Sky limited series 'Amadeus,' with Will Sharpe as the musical genius Amadeus and Paul Bettany as court composer, Antonio Salieri. W Network highlights include the Peacock mystery 'All Her Fault,' with Sarah Snook as a mother whose son goes missing while on his first playdate, and the dark comedy, 'The 'Burbs' starring Keke Palmer, in which a young couple reluctantly move to the husband's childhood home. Celebrities anchor several new shows including the History Channel's 'WWII with Tom Hanks,' 'History's Deadliest with Ving Rhames,' and 'Hazardous History with Henry Winkler,' while Ryan Reynolds narrates the National Geographic animal series 'Underdogs,' and Slice adds the six-part docuseries 'Tiffany Haddish Goes Off,' which follows the star and her three girlfriends on a trip to Africa. In children's fare, YTV adds 'The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball,' about a blue cat and his goldfish brother in Elmore, Calif., while Treehouse welcomes 'Thomas & Friends: Sodor Sings Together,' where the engines prepare a musical surprise performance. On Monday, Corus also detailed high-profile U.S. imports headed to its Global, including CBS' new hour-long crime drama from executive producer Dick Wolf, 'CIA,' starring Tom Ellis as a 'loose cannon CIA case officer. Also new is the ensemble comedy 'DMV' with Tim Meadows, the singing competition 'The Road,' in which country star Keith Urban tries to discover the next big artist and 'Sheriff Country,' starring Morena Baccarin in an expansion of CBS' 'Fire Country' universe. Returning fall shows include 'Survivor,' '9-1-1,' 'FBI,' 'Matlock,' 'NCIS,' 'NCIS: Origins' and 'Elsbeth.' A second season of the Canadian-made 'Murder in a Small Town' will return with Marcia Gay Harden in the cast while homegrown true crime series 'Crime Beat' will launch a seventh season. Returning mid-season shows include the Global original 'Family Law,' 'Watson' and 'Hollywood Squares.' Mid-season will also see the competition show 'America's Culinary Cup,' hosted by Padma Lakshmi, a new drama from Taylor Sheridan's 'Yellowstone' family with the working title, 'Y: Marshals' and the unscripted series, 'Harlan Coben's Final Twist,' in which the bestselling author steps into the true-crime television genre.

American chain famous for its 'life-changing' buffalo wings is coming to Australia: 'Dream come true'
A beloved American chicken chain is set to make its long-awaited Australian debut - and the internet is already losing its mind. Locals in Sydney 's Kings Cross were quick to spot a glowing green sign that read 'Flavour Landing Soon In Wings Cross' - a clever nod to the Texas-born brand's famous motto and a hint at its first Aussie outpost. Wingstop, known across the US for its saucy chicken wings, tenders, and sandwiches, is opening its first Australian location at 1/11 Darlinghurst Rd, Potts Point, with trading hours listed as 11am to 2am daily. While no official opening date has been revealed, the store's arrival has already been confirmed through the newly launched @wingstopau Instagram and TikTok accounts. Both bios read: 'Flavour Landing Soon' with links to apply for jobs or visit the website. The fast food chain is famous for its twelve distinct flavours - from classic lemon pepper and garlic parmesan to the fiery atomic and mango habanero. Die-hard fans swear by the ranch sauce, and many are already begging the Aussie franchise to stick to the original recipe. Wingstop, which started in Garland, Texas in 1994, has grown to over 1,400 locations worldwide. Locals in Sydney's Kings Cross were quick to spot a glowing green sign that read 'Flavour Landing Soon In Wings Cross' Wingstop, known across the US for its saucy chicken wings, tenders, and sandwiches, is opening its first Australian location at 1/11 Darlinghurst Rd, Potts Point, with trading hours listed as 11am to 2am daily The restaurants are known for their 1930s and 1940s aviation-themed interiors, a nod to the golden age of flight, with a modern twist. For many expats and Aussie foodies, the announcement was cause for celebration. 'Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,' one fan wrote. 'Love of my life - I am so ready,' said another. Others begged for more: 'Come to Melbourne.' A foodie said, 'You better promise the ranch is the same ranch not an Aussie version of it cause I will cry.' 'As an American living in Australia, I've missed you,' an expat said. 'I think I'm going to have a heart attack,' another joked.
