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

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