    Canada's CityTV: goes for gloss, dumps Stargate for Fall season

    Rogers revamps City schedule
    by Marise Strauss

    excerpt:

    Citytv's fall schedule has had a major facelift and, with the exception of comedy Ugly Betty on Thursdays, looks completely different from last year, as Rogers Media execs seek to bring more stability to the former CHUM channel.
    ….

    The City menu, unveiled late last week without a formal presentation to ad buyers or the press, will also see none of the usual sci-fi and fantasy fare such as last fall's Stargate SG-1, Blood Ties, Supernatural and Reaper.

    "They're definitely trying to make the station lighter, in terms of programming that's not so dark or sci-fi-themed," says media buyer Valerie McMorran, of Starcom MediaVest. She notes that the fall lineup skews more female, citing Lipstick Jungle, Nip/Tuck and Ugly Betty as titles that will draw predominantly women.

    Looks like I'll be watching less CityTV this fall.
    I am both Pro-Keller and Pro-Beckett. No amount of Hail Mary's will save my soul from hell.
