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 50th anniversary, and #1 reality show Survivor*, back for its 49th season this fall and what promises to be a legendary 50th 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."
