2016–17 Canadian network television schedule explained

The 2016–17 network television schedule for the five major English commercial broadcast networks in Canada covers primetime hours from September 2016 through August 2017. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2015–16 television season, for Canadian, American and other series.

CBC Television was first to announce its fall schedule on May 26, 2016,[1] followed by CTV and CTV Two,[2] as well as City on May 30, 2016,[3] and Global on June 9, 2016.[4] As in the past, the commercial networks' announcements come shortly after the networks have had a chance to buy Canadian rights to new American series.

CTV Two and Global are not included on Saturday as they do not carry network programming.
