Please contact your local Global News Television station.
Generally, when a show is pre-empted it is done because the originating US Network has chosen to air a different program in that time slot, one for which we do not own the program rights. We then fill that time with programming we have in our library.
Occasionally, a show may be cancelled by the originating US Network mid-season. When this happens, we do not have the rights to broadcast the remaining episodes. It is our hope that alternate programming on the Global Television schedule compensates with many hours of viewing pleasure.
Scheduling decisions are always made after careful thought and consideration. Although we realize that not every decision will please everyone, we care a great deal about our audience and we welcome viewer feedback and comments, to help us continue making informed programming decisions.
Global Television does not have the rights to sell or distribute any of our programming; we purchase only the rights to air them. We can send you contact information for certain Canadian programming (if available on file), should you wish to contact the production companies to obtain distribution information.
Due to our broadcast agreements regarding some of our shows and their originating networks, we do not own the rights to stream all shows on the Internet. The length for which we can stream the episodes of certain shows for which we have streaming rights is predetermined by the originating network.
Although HD is not mandated by the CRTC until 2011, the Global Television Network has begun taking steps towards conversion since 2008.
Global Television in Ontario currently provides an HD stream to some of the larger BDUs - broadcast distribution undertaking (BDUs are your local cable or satellite providers). We will be addressing each Global station over a period of time and not all at once.
There is no over the air transmission available yet, but we expect to have an over the air HD transmitter up and running for CHCH Hamilton, Global Ontario and Global BC. After they are set up and running, Calgary and Edmonton will follow for an HD transmitter, followed by the remaining Global Networks. Detailed specifications (i.e. the actual channel #'s) will come at a later date.
Simulcast Substitution (SimSub) of our Global signal atop a U.S. broadcaster's signal carrying the exact same program at the exact same time will continue as per the CRTC, however that said if for example NBC is airing an HD version of the same show we only have available in SD (Standard Definition), then the BDUs should not be initiating that SimSub.
Your patience is appreciated and we hope we've addressed your query.
Many episodes of our programs are re-aired at some point. To determine if the program you are interested in is currently scheduled to be rebroadcast, or specific programs and episodes, we suggest checking your local television listings for the exact date and time when particular episodes will be shown again.
Or check our daily online listings at www.globaltv.com/schedule/index.html
All standard banners during program broadcasts are provided to inform our viewers of any upcoming programs of interest or time changes as a value-added service. Overall our many viewers across Canada consider this an enhancement of their viewing experience.
