2018–19 Canadian network television schedule explained

The 2018–19 network television schedule for the five major English commercial broadcast networks in Canada covers primetime hours from September 2018 through August 2019. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2017–18 television season, for Canadian, American and other series.

CBC Television was first to announce its fall schedule on May 24, 2018,[1] followed by Global on June 4,[2] Citytv on June 5,[3] and CTV and CTV 2 on June 7, 2018.[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 2 and Global are not included on Saturday as they normally only schedule encore programming in primetime on Saturdays.
