CANADA’S ULTIMATE CHALLENGE (7x60) is an original reality competition format that transforms Canada into a giant obstacle course. Hosted by Brandon Gonez, season three sees 20 extraordinary Canadians split into five teams to face relentless challenges that demand physical grit, mental sharpness, and the ability to navigate fiery team dynamics. This season starts in the majestic surf town of Tofino, BC and spans iconic stops in Vancouver, BC, Drumheller, AB, Saskatoon, SK, Sault Ste. Marie, ON, Mont Tremblant, QC and Halifax, NS. At stake is the incredible opportunity to cheer on Team Canada at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026.
BOLLYWED (8x30) is a heartwarming docu-series centred around the Singh family, who have been operating the iconic bridal shop, Chandan Fashion, in Toronto’s Little India for almost 40 years. The series shines a fascinating light on the booming and glamorous world of South Asian culture and fashion, and offers an authentic glimpse into an intergenerationally run business led by father Kuki Singh, his wife Sarab, and their two children Chandan and Chandni, and daughter-in-law Roop. The stakes are higher, the drama is bigger, and the fashion is bolder in Season 3! This time, the Singh family takes us on their most emotional and exciting adventure yet—a trip back to their roots in India. With Kuki and Sarab preparing to renew their vows, the family dives headfirst into a whirlwind of wedding prep, personal reflection, and professional reinvention.
THE NATURE OF THINGS (11x60) presents dramatic and insightful stories that are driven by a scientific understanding of the world. As TV’s longest-running science series celebrating 64 seasons this year, THE NATURE OF THINGS continues to inspire and entertain audiences by engaging with the people and personalities behind the science and phenomena that shape our world. From the search for other life in the universe to the psychology of babies, and from the furry animals that invade our backyards to the consequences of human progress, this series throws open the door to the wonder and accomplishments of science, making it accessible to viewers of all ages.
