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.

From BLACKPINK to Running Her Own Company to ‘Boyfriend on Demand’, Jisoo Enters Her Most Mature Phase

The singer-actress is the cover star of Billboard Brasil's 21st edition.

In 2011, a teenager from Gunpo, a city 30 km from Seoul, crossed the South Korean capital to audition at YG Entertainment. The 16-year-old faced a line of hundreds of candidates, performed for the judges, and left the building without knowing the result of the audition that would change her life forever. Shortly after, Jisoo joined the agency’s exclusive trainee program. She went through countless hours of rehearsals and music, singing and dance classes over five years before debuting in BLACKPINK alongside three other girls — and the rest is history with a capital H. The group was one of the driving forces behind K-pop’s surge in global popularity over the following decade.
