There’s Something About Jann, the TV Show, That Canadians Love

By FYI Staff

If you want to talk Canadian culture, Jann Arden has it nailed down. Her six-episode riot of comedic self-deprecation launched in March to rave reviews and has proven itself to be a roaring success with CTV viewers right up to its denouement this evening, averaging 1.1 million viewers weekly.


Those numbers hardly stack up against the blistering success of Game of Thrones, the final season–but the medieval fantasy has a long history behind it, and came to the screen by way of a successful book series penned by George R.R. Martin.

According to data from Numeris, Arden’s critically acclaimed comedy is the most-watched new Canadian series of the year with the key A18-49 and A25-54 demos.

Set and filmed in Calgary, Jann was co-developed by Bell Media and Project 10 Productions and is produced in association with Project 10 Productions and Seven24 Films. 

Jann concludes tonight at 8:30 pm ET/PT on CTV, CTV.ca, the CTV App, and Crave.

Sum 41 Scores Second Alternative Airplay No. 1 This Year With ‘Dopamine’

The band's second and third No. 1s have led over two decades after its first in 2001.

After earning its first No. 1 on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart in over two decades earlier this year, Sum 41 scores another as “Dopamine” rises a spot to No. 1 on the Nov. 30-dated survey.

The song follows the two-week Alternative Airplay command for “Landmines” in March. The latter led 22 years, five months and three weeks after Sum 41’s first No. 1, “Fat Lip,” in August 2001, rewriting the record for the longest break between rulers for an act in the chart’s 36-year history. It shattered the previous best test of patience, held by The Killers, who waited 13 years and six months between the reigns of “When You Were Young” in 2006 and “Caution” in 2020.
