From CBC News:

CBC’s unscripted series, The Assembly, returns for a second season with six new celebrity interviews and an expanded cast of more than 30 neurodivergent and autistic adults asking the questions.

Actors Hudson Williams (Heated Rivalry), Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover) and Jay Baruchel (This is the End) are among the celebrity guests in the hot seat. 

The six-episode season also features actor and Miss Universe Canada Ashley Callingbull (North of North), singer-songwriter Lights and three-time Olympic hockey gold medallist Marie-Philip Poulin.

Each celebrity faces an ask-anything interview, with direct, unpredictable questions that move beyond the usual promotional talking points, and often get personal.

This time, the interviewers include familiar faces from the show’s first season as well as new participants.

That mix is central to the show’s appeal. Rather than steering guests through a polished set of talking points, The Assembly makes room for candid exchanges, awkward pauses, humour and moments of real connection. The creative team describes the show as a place for revelation and laughs — sometimes in the same conversation.

The show's format is adapted from the French program Les Rencontres du Papotin, which began in 2022 with guests including Killing Eve star Camille Cottin and French President Emmanuel Macron.

The format has since travelled internationally, with other versions featuring guests including actors Antonio Banderas, Michael Sheen, David Tennant and Stephen Fry. 

Season 2 begins Sunday, Nov. 1, at 9 p.m. ET on CBC TV and CBC Gem. Extended "producer’s cuts" will be available only on CBC Gem from 9 a.m. ET that day.

Hi! I used to see CBC Ottawa available for free. But now it seems no longer the case. When I click into any local station, all I see is schedule. Is it the same for everyone? Why did CBC Gem make the change?

who remembers watching a   movie on A-Channel

Hey fellow Canadian TV lovers. Today the show Elvira Kurt: Adventures in Comedy popped into my head. I couldn't remember the name and spent about an hour digging around the internet and texting friends. No one even remembered what I was talking about. There is no mention of it on her IMDB either.

Anyways, I was hoping you fine people could help me find some old footage from the show, ideally I'm really just looking for the shows intro.

Thanks in advance. Best regards. Elbows up.

This show ran my entire childhood. All the kids in my neighborhood rocked out to it, and many of us even had the record. Now as an adult, I almost never encounter anyone who remembers it. It’s so niche, I would have thought I imagined the whole thing if not for the few YT clips!

The Hunt for SaskTel’s Lost Commercials (2007–2016)

​I’m currently searching for a series of nostalgia-filled SaskTel advertisements that aired in Saskatchewan, Canada, between 2007 and 2016.

​ Lost / High-Demand Commercial List ​Max HD – "Green is the Colour" ​Description: A promotional SaskTel Max TV commercial tying into Saskatchewan Roughriders pride, utilizing the iconic Riders anthem "Green is the Colour". ​Status: Unsurfaced / Seeking HD copy. ​Lil' Red Holiday / Christmas Campaign ​Description: The iconic SaskTel Little Red Riding Hood character in a special holiday/Christmas-themed spot. ​Status: Partially lost / Looking for clean TV rips. ​Jack & The Beanstalk – SaskTel Business ​Description: A creative fairy-tale-themed commercial using Jack and the Beanstalk to market SaskTel's business services and fiber internet growth. ​Status: Unsurfaced. ​Cindi's Cookies ​Description: A Cinderella-inspired ("Cindi") SaskTel commercial centered around a cookie business or baking themed spot. ​Status: Unsurfaced. ​ How You Can Help

​If you have any leads, recorded VHS tapes from Saskatchewan broadcasts during the 2000s/2010s, or links to high-definition uploads:

​Check YouTube: Search through old local commercial compilations or unlisted promo reels. ​Wayback Machine: Search archived SaskTel media pages, old SaskTel YouTube channel archives, or local Saskatchewan agency portfolios (e.g., Brown Communications). ​Personal Archives: If you recorded TV broadcasts (specifically CTV Regina/Saskatoon, Global Sask, or CBC Sask) between 2007 and 2016, please check your tapes!

​Please reply or send me a message if you find any of these spots in HD or full quality!

who remembers watching To Serve and Protect on a channel in edmonton my dad told me about this show it called To Serve and Protect

Nicole, of course, played Shade's ex Becca on the original iteration of the show, and now her daughter, Summer Kastner, has made her television debut as Lauren, the roommate of the girl who was missing in this episode. Very cool! Proud mama even mentioned the guest appearance on her IG.

The Netflix series staring Josh Hartnet is out now! Filmed and set in Newfoundland, with a lot of Canadian onscreen talent. I haven’t watched it yet but early online talk is positive.

What do we all think is BELOW in the water? A shark? Or an alien? Maybe it’s a Cloverfield spinoff???

If you're a fan of Letterkenny or Shoresy, you're probably going to want to check this new series out. I'm going to be completely honest with you, I'm not quite sure what I just watched (in a good way), but I'm sure it's going to be good 😂. The cast includes Jared Keeso, Scott Thompson, Kristin Kreuk, and Jonathan Torrens. Yes, that's Chad Kroeger from Nickelback in the trailer. I did not know he acted.

It premieres on November 6, 2026, on Crave.

I was an extra on the show and can’t find it to stream anywhere. It went for 3 seasons from 96-99. Does anyone have any idea where I could find it?

If anyone had followed the story about Kaitlyn Braun, there is a 3 part documentary on CBC Gem.

I grew up with this show. I love it, and I never wanna see it end, but it has been pushing the cheesy boundaries. The episode wasn't inherently bad but something felt off.
