ADDENDUM (c) – NEW FALL <strong>CTV</strong> and <strong>CTV</strong> <strong>TWO</strong> PROGRAMS<br />
ANGER MANAGEMENT (<strong>CTV</strong>)<br />
Perhaps the most-anticipated comeback in television history, former <strong>TWO</strong> <strong>AND</strong> A HALF<br />
MEN star Charlie Sheen makes his much-buzzed about return to network primetime in<br />
ANGER MANAGEMENT, a new sitcom loosely based on the hit 2003 feature film of the<br />
same name. Sheen stars as “Charlie” a successful yet non-traditional therapist specializing<br />
in anger management. He has a successful private practice, holding sessions with his<br />
group of primary patients each week, as well as performing pro-bono counselling for an<br />
inmate group at a state prison. Prior to his career as a therapist, Charlie was a stalled<br />
minor league baseball prospect whose road to the majors was sidetracked by his own<br />
struggle with anger issues. After a stint in anger management therapy, he made it to the<br />
majors and had one terrific season before his anger issues put him on the shelf for good.<br />
In the final game of his career, he tried to snap a bat over his leg, which resulted in a<br />
career-ending injury. That injury led him back to school and to his current profession.<br />
Charlie thrives on the chaos in his life while still battling his own anger issues. His life is<br />
complicated by his relationships with his own therapist/best friend (Selma Blair), an ex-wife<br />
(Shawnee Smith) whose positive outlook but poor choice in men frustrates Charlie, and<br />
their <strong>13</strong>-year-old daughter (Daniela Bobadilla) who has obsessive-compulsive disorder.<br />
Cast: Charlie Sheen (<strong>TWO</strong> <strong>AND</strong> A HALF MEN) as Charlie, Selma Blair (Cruel Intentions),<br />

ARROW (<strong>CTV</strong> Two)<br />
One of the most sought-after new faces in Hollywood, Gemini Award-winning Canadian<br />
actor Stephen Amell stars in the new action-adventure drama ARROW. A modern retelling<br />
of the legendary DC Comics character Green Arrow, the series embraces a dark,<br />
cinematic take on the story of billionaire playboy Oliver Queen, who after a violent<br />
shipwreck was presumed dead but fought for his survival for five years on a remote island<br />
in the Pacific. Once rescued, Oliver returns home to Starling City, where his devoted<br />
mother Moira (Susanna Thompson), much-beloved sister Thea (Willa Holland) and best<br />
friend Tommy (Colin Donnell) welcome him home, but they soon realize that the Oliver<br />
they said goodbye to is very different from the one who returned. As Oliver tries to<br />
reconnect with those closest to him, he secretly creates the persona of Arrow – a ruthless<br />
vigilante determined to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore<br />
Starling City to its former glory. First on his list of targets is the villainous and corrupt<br />
businessman, Adam Hunt (Canadian Brian Markinson). By day, Oliver plays the role of the<br />
wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be – watched closely by his devoted<br />
chauffeur/bodyguard, John Diggle (David Ramsey) – while carefully concealing the secret<br />
identity he turns to in the darkness.
Cast: Stephen Amell (HUNG, HEARTL<strong>AND</strong>) as Oliver Queen, Susanna Thompson (COLD<br />

EMILY OWENS, M.D. (<strong>CTV</strong> Two)<br />
Set to become this season’s primetime darling, Mamie Gummer stars as a sweet medical<br />
school graduate who can’t escape her high school woes in EMILY OWENS, M.D. With<br />
natural talent and breakout roles on THE GOOD WIFE and OFF THE MAP, Gummer has<br />
skillfully stepped above being known simply as the daughter of Academy Award®-winning<br />
actor Meryl Streep. As Emily Owens, Gummer brings effortless charm to her role as a firstyear<br />
intern at Denver Memorial Hospital. There, Emily has the chance to work with worldfamous<br />
cardiologist Dr. Gina Beckett (Necar Zadegan) and not-so-coincidentally alongside<br />
her med school crush and fellow intern Will Rider (Justin Hartley). So why does everyone<br />
keep warning her that the hospital is just like high school? Emily soon finds out the hard<br />
way - her high school nemesis, the gorgeous, popular Cassandra Kopelson (Aja Naomi<br />
King), is also just starting out at Denver Memorial, and it seems like they're rivals all over<br />
again - not only as surgical interns, but for Will's attention. Emily's the new kid again, and<br />
it's just as awkward as high school. Only this time around, Emily has to balance the<br />
personal and emotional turmoil of social politics with the high-stakes world of life-anddeath<br />
medical decisions. At least she has fellow intern Tyra (Kelly McCreary), and nerdybut-cute<br />
resident Micah (Michael Rady), to count on as friends. Emily is going to realize<br />
that although she may be a geek, she may also grow to be a great doctor.<br />
Cast: Mamie Gummer (THE GOOD WIFE) as Emily, Justin Hartley (SMALLVILLE,<br />
PASSIONS) as Will, Michael Rady (THE MENTALIST) as Micah, Aja Naomi King<br />
(PERSON OF INTEREST) as Cassandra, Kelly McCreary (WHITE COLLAR) as Tyra,<br />

NASHVILLE (<strong>CTV</strong> Two)<br />
From Academy Award®-winning screenwriter Callie Khouri (Thelma and Louise), comes<br />
the powerful new big-budget drama NASHVILLE, a story of love, sex, power, money,<br />
music and family. At the centre of it all, critically-acclaimed actress and fan-favourite<br />
Connie Britton brings her Emmy®-nominated talents to the role of Rayna James, a country<br />
legend who's had a career any singer would envy. Lately her popularity is starting to wane<br />
and her record label thinks a concert tour, opening for aggressive up-and-comer Juliette<br />
Barnes (Hayden Panettiere), is just what Rayna needs. Singing for her role, Panettiere<br />
sinks her teeth into the character of scheming Juliette who can't wait to steal Rayna's<br />
spotlight. Sharing a stage with that disrespectful, untalented, little vixen is the last thing<br />
Rayna wants to do, which sets up a power struggle for popularity. Complicating matters is<br />
Rayna's wealthy but estranged father, Lamar Hampton (Powers Boothe), a powerful force<br />
in business, Tennessee politics, and the lives of his two grown daughters. His drive for
power results in a scheme to back Rayna's handsome husband, Teddy (Eric Close), in a<br />
run for Mayor of Nashville, against Rayna's wishes.<br />

THE MOB DOCTOR (<strong>CTV</strong>)<br />
Offering a dramatic twist on the medical and crime procedural is THE MOB DOCTOR, a<br />
fast-paced new drama starring Jordana Spiro as Dr. Grace Devlin, a brilliant young<br />
surgeon split between her promising medical career and her lifelong debt to Chicago’s<br />
Southside mob. By day, Grace deals with the emotionally compelling cases at the hospital,<br />
but she must also juggle an onslaught of mob-related medical demands, all the while<br />
keeping her dual life a secret from everyone including her handsome, blue-blooded<br />
boyfriend Dr. Brett Robinson. The only people who know the true scope of Grace’s<br />
activities is her ex-boyfriend Franco, and the charming and diabolical Southside mob boss<br />
Constantine, an oddly compassionate killer whose relationship with Grace is more than it<br />
seems. As Grace tries to heed the demands of these two conflicting worlds, it’s her nerves<br />
of steel and a tough-as-nails exterior that somehow has her managing to make it all work –<br />
at least for now.<br />

Hills, a coveted gated community in New Jersey, to provide a better life for their three kids.<br />
It's clear from day one that the residents of Hidden Hills are a little different. For starters,<br />
their new neighbors all have pro-athlete names like Reggie Jackson (Tim Jo), Jackie<br />
Joyner-Kersee (Toks Olagundoye), Dick Butkis (Ian Patrick) and Larry Bird (Simon<br />
Templeman). To their horror, the Weavers soon learn that the entire community is<br />
comprised of aliens from Zabvron masquerading as suburbanites where the men bear<br />

surrogate baby mama. Bryan (Andrew Rannells) and David (Justin Bartha) are a Beverly<br />

‘Ian Price.' For years Jason has battled Ian, keeping him in check with a powerful<br />
experimental sedative. But now resistant to the serum, Ian is free once again and is hellbent<br />

GOLDEN BOY<br />
Cop-drama GOLDEN BOY follows the meteoric rise of an ambitious NYC officer, Walter<br />
William Clark, Jr. (Theo James), who becomes the youngest police commissioner in the<br />
history of New York City. During an interview, Clark reflects on his hard-fought journey<br />
from street kid to the most powerful man in law enforcement after only three years as a<br />
beat cop. Disappointed to be partnered with veteran Detective Don Owen (Chi McBride), a<br />
gruff lifer just two years shy of retirement, Clark would rather team with first grade<br />
detective Christian Arroyo (Kevin Alejandro), the alpha dog in the squad who shares his<br />
ambitions. Arroyo’s partner is Detective Deborah McKenzie (Bonnie Somerville), a tough<br />
third-generation cop and the only female detective in the unit. Though laser-focused on<br />
moving up the ladder, Clark’s soft spot is serving as the sole caregiver and supporter of his<br />
sister, Agnes (Stella Maeve), a teenager demonstrating increasingly dangerous<br />
behaviour. Keenly observant and politically savvy, “Golden Boy” Clark bases his career<br />
decisions solely on his need to succeed as quickly as possible, but he’ll soon find that his<br />
epic journey is filled with consequences.<br />

THE FOLLOWING (<strong>CTV</strong>)<br />
From Warner Bros Television, this much buzzed about psychological thriller THE<br />
FOLLOWING, stars Golden Globe® Award-winner Kevin Bacon (X-Men: First Class) in his<br />
broadcast television debut. The FBI estimates there are currently over 300 active serial<br />
killers in the United States. What would happen if these killers had a way of connecting<br />
with each other and were able to work together to form alliances across the country? What<br />
if one brilliant psychotic serial killer was able to bring them all together and activate a<br />
following? When notorious serial killer Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) escapes from death<br />
row and embarks on a new killing spree, the FBI calls former agent Ryan Hardy (Bacon) to<br />
consult on the case. Hardy is a walking textbook of all-things Carroll and is perhaps<br />
Carroll’s only psychological and intellectual match. Wounded by his previous pursuit of this<br />
serial killer, this investigation is Hardy’s redemption and he becomes ever more<br />
determined to end Carroll’s game when he realizes that this psychopath intends to finish<br />
what he started. The thriller follows Hardy and the FBI as they are challenged with the<br />
ever-growing web of murder around them.<br />
