In Canada, Wheel and Jeopardy are moving from CHCH to Yes TV, a re-branding of the Crossroads Television System. They are essentially a cluster of three religious independents in Toronto, Calgary, and Edmonton (much like those "family" stations in the U.S. which devote much of their day to religious programs, but program some old sitcom reruns during the early evening for ad time). They've also acquired a few other shows (including Judge Judy, and Canadian rights to AFV, The Biggest Loser and American Idol; the last of which used to air on Canada's foremost commercial network CTV. That is a testament to its decreasing relevance, for sure, because CTV airs The Voice too)
Meanwhile, Citytv (No I am not going to call it just "City", thank you very much) has picked up a double-run of Family Feud to replace Judge Judy at Noon (Somehow it was actually on CTS before. Somehow as in, how did it Harvey even get by their presumably stricter content standards?), and is replacing the departing Katie at 3 p.m. after General Hospital with Celebrity Name Game. Both of these changes take effect September 8, yet CNG's premiere date is listed as the 22nd; we might be getting a world premiere here. As City is also the Canadian home of LMAD and Price, they're now going to have a three-hour long block of game shows in daytime, broken only by ABC's afternoon lineup.
