Corus to air ‘Real Housewives of Toronto’ as part of 2016-’17 lineup

TORONTO – Get ready for big drama in the Big Smoke: the “Real Housewives” reality franchise is headed to Toronto.

Corus Entertainment says “Real Housewives of Toronto” will be part of its 2016/17 programming lineup.

The show will follow “the city’s wealthiest women, from their extravagant day-to-day escapades in Toronto to grandiose getaways at their exclusive colossal cottages” in Muskoka, Ont., says a statement.

Other new unscripted series in the lineup include the first-ever version of “The Bachelorette Canada,” set to debut this fall on W Network.

Global will have the new scripted series “Bull,” starring Michael Weatherly of “NCIS” fame, as well as a fourth instalment in the Chicago franchise, “Chicago Justice.”

Global will also air four new comedies with big stars: Kevin James in “Kevin Can Wait,” Matt LeBlanc in “Man With a Plan,” Ted Danson and Kristen Bell in “The Good Place,” and Joel McHale in “The Great Indoors.”

Also set for Global is the new Canadian assisted-suicide drama “Mary Kills People,” starring Caroline Dhavernas.

“Incorporated,” a futuristic thriller from executive producers Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, will air on Showcase, as will “Supergirl.”
