A Special Announcement

Image
After 1 year and over 125 editions, I decided to stop publishing the weekly top program list. The reason why? Because the TV listings section on the Gracenote website was apparently shut down last Wednesday. I usually use the Gracenote site for the upcoming programs airing on linear TV the following week, but unfortunately, the website was shut down like I said, last Wednesday, following the main source Zap2it took their listings offline in favour of the schedule page of the American pay-TV network NewsNation. Don't worry, I'll still be publishing the special bulletins when there's something important in worldwide media. And starting this fall, I'll be starting off a new weekly series called "What Happened This Week In Worldwide Media", published every Sunday morning.

Here's a breakdown of the changes of these specialty channels that are impacted, by company: Bell Media Discovery Channel becomes USA Network, Investigation Discovery becomes Oxygen, Discovery Science becomes CTV Nature, Discovery Velocity becomes CTV Speed, and Animal Planet becomes CTV Wild, all of which will happen on January 1, 2025. In an unrelated move, MTV Canada will close down for good after December 31, 2024, citing "changing audiences...

 Hello, this is Angelo. As you may expect, you've probably heard by now that I've reached 1,000 followers on Twitter/X as of yesterday. I'm a big fan of Lolirock, but I also like game shows such as Family Feud (and it's Canadian version), Jeopardy, Supermarket Sweep, Catch 21, and Common Knowledge. And let's be honest, I always do the Top TV programs of the night a few hours before primetime starts at 8pm ET! Without further adieu, let's watch the most popular video on Lolirock's official YouTube channel:
