TORONTO, June 2, 2022 /CNW/ - Leading up to the #BellMediaUpfront on June 9, CTV today announced the key new series set to join CTV and its suite of Specialty Channels as part of the 2022/23 season. Landing highly-anticipated series, headlined by blockbuster talent, CTV's schedule includes the buzzed-about EAST NEW YORK, from the executive producers of NYPD BLUE, about the newly promoted police captain of East New York, with Amanda Warren and Jimmy Smits. Also coming to CTV is the spinoff of hit series THE ROOKIE, THE ROOKIE: FEDS, starring Niecy Nash-Betts as the oldest rookie at the FBI Academy; and ALASKA, from the mind of Academy Award^®-winner Tom McCarthy (Spotlight), which follows a disgraced reporter looking for redemption at an Anchorage newspaper, starring two-time Academy Award^®- winner Hilary Swank.

Also joining the CTV schedule is CELEBRITY JEOPARDY!, a spinoff of the iconic game show featuring famous faces competing to donate money to a chosen charity.  

CTV's Specialty Channels have also expanded their suite of sought-after series, with CTV Sci-Fi Channel adding THE WINCHESTERS, a prequel to the smash-hit series SUPERNATURAL, centered on Dean and Sam's parents; and THE ARK, which follows planetary colonization missions in the race to save human beings from extinction.
