TORONTO, ON (October 6, 2026) – From the mind of Jared Keeso comes I KILL THE BEAR, a new, six-part, Crave Original comedy series which drops with two episodes weekly, beginning Friday, Nov. 6.

I KILL THE BEAR is a comedy about a family of bear wranglers for film sets, and why, after 100 years, they’ve decided to make this film their last. The Thibaults – Keeso, St-Pierre, Beauchesne, and Torrens – are a fourth-generation Franco-Ontarian family who make their living wrangling bears on film sets. They’re incredibly kind, well-intentioned people who have spent most of their lives isolated in the bush and suddenly find themselves trying to navigate a Hollywood world they don’t completely understand.

A trailer for the series was also released today:


Keeso is joined onscreen by an ensemble cast including: Adrian Holmes (19-2, BEL-AIR), Mixed Martial Arts star Georges St-Pierre (CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER), Jonathan Torrens (TRAILER PARK BOYS), Sarah-Maude Beauchesne (BELLEFLEUR), multi-award-winning, Diamond-selling Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger, Kristin Kreuk (SMALLVILLE), Scott Thompson (KIDS IN THE HALL), Dylan Playfair (LETTERKENNY),  Eliana Jones (SHORESY), Frederick Roy (SHORESY), and Megha Sandhu (PAINKILLER).

TORONTO (October 5, 2026) – Five seasons. One unforgettable community. And one last chance for Paul to start acting good. CTV and APTN Original comedy ACTING GOOD returns for its fifth and final season on Monday, Oct. 19 with a special two-episode premiere kicking off at 10 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy Channel and streaming next day on Crave. Subsequent new episodes air Mondays at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy and stream next day on Crave. Season 5 of ACTING GOOD will also air on Oct. 20 on APTN at 10 p.m. ET and stream next day on APTN+. Filmed on location in Winnipeg and Baaskkandibewiziibing Brokenhead Ojibway Nation, Season 5 consists of 10 half-hour episodes, bringing the beloved series to a milestone 50 episodes.

Inspired by co-creator and stand-up comedian Paul Rabliaskas’ life in his fly-in first nation, in its final season, Paul’s (Paul Rabliauskas) constant immaturity and antics finally catch up with him when Rose (Cheyenna Sapp), alongside his friends and family, stages a surprise intervention at Yeah Man. When Paul refuses to see the error of his ways, Rose reaches her breaking point, forcing him to confront a hard truth: if he wants to keep the people he loves together, he’s going to have to change. What follows is a very Paul-like journey of self-improvement, complete with divorced dads, an unlikely counsellor, and a stint competing on the reality survival series The Deadliest Native. But when Paul’s transformation goes a little too far, his newfound self-righteous attitude creates problems of its own. To repair his relationships and help his community, Paul must find the balance between the person he was and the person he wants to become.

"ACTING GOOD was a show created from the heart, and we've been honoured to bring the first ever Indigenous sitcom to a major Canadian Network," said Executive Producer, Showrunner and star Paul Rabliauskas. "The show may be over but we’re hopeful that the characters and the fictional community of Grouse Lake will live on forever."

“Bringing Indigenous comedic perspectives to the screen was an extraordinary experience,” said producer Tina Keeper, who also stars as Agnes. ”Working with Paul and the dedicated creative team along with Bell Media and APTN was groundbreaking.”

“ACTING GOOD has been a landmark and incredibly special part of CTV Comedy Channel’s original programming lineup,” said Justin Stockman, Vice President, Global Content, Bell Media. “Paul and the entire creative team have created something truly unique, delivering five seasons of big laughs, heartfelt storytelling, and unforgettable characters. We couldn’t be prouder of the series and are excited to celebrate this final season with viewers, culminating in a fitting send-off for Paul and the residents of Grouse Lake.”

Guest stars for Season 5 include Leenah Robinson (40 ACRES, DON’T EVEN), Herbie Barnes (GUILT FREE ZONE, DANCE ME OUTSIDE), Victoria Sawal (THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY), Glen Michael Grant (CHAOS WALKING), Crystle Lightning (TRICKSTER, THREE PINES), Chris Locke (RUN THE BURBS, WHO’S YER FATHER), Vance Banzo (TALLBOYZ), Glen Gould (TULSA KING, CASHING IN), along with returning guest stars Miss Universe 2015 and Miss Universe Canada 2024 Ashley Callingbull (BLACKSTONE, THE PRICE IS RIGHT TONIGHT). As well as Joel D. Montgrand (TRUE DETECTIVE) and a return from ACTING GOOD’s very own, Roseanne Supernault.

On the Season 5 premiere, titled “KooKoo for Kookum” (Monday, Oct. 19 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy and streaming next day on Crave and Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 10 p.m. ET and next day streaming on APTN+), Agnes (Tina Keeper) finally meets her online granddaughter, Irma (Leenah Robinson), but when Paul (Paul Rabliauskas) grows suspicious things turn deadly…and not deadly in a good way. Rose (Cheyenna Sapp) is tasked with Chief duties with Deedee (Rosanna Deerchild) on a slack year and is quickly saddled with the task of kicking some uninvited guests out of Grouse Lake.

In Part 2 of the two-episode premiere, titled “Love Eyes” (Monday, Oct. 19 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy and streaming next day on Crave and Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 10:30 p.m. ET and next day streaming on APTN+), Paul tries to save his relationship from the infamously seductive, Johnny Love’eyes (Herbie Barnes). Meanwhile, Cousin Leon (Michael Greyeyes) is reunited with his estranged daughter Leona (Victoria Sawal), and Roger (Billy Merasty) has a meet cute with a hydro worker. Glen Michael Grant also guest stars as Andre.

ACTING GOOD is the #1 Canadian Scripted Series on CTV Comedy among A25-54 since the series debuted in 2022. The series has also garnered industry recognition throughout its run, including a 2024 Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Ensemble Performance in a Comedy Series, nominations from the Writers Guild of Canada and ACTRA Awards, and two Canadian Sync Award nominations. Beyond the screen, ACTING GOOD has created meaningful opportunities for dozens of Indigenous crew members to build their skills and gain valuable experience in television production, while supporting training and development across the production.

Previous seasons of ACTING GOOD are available for streaming on Crave and APTN+.

ACTING GOOD is produced by CTV Comedy Channel, in association with Kistikan Pictures Inc. and Buffalo Gal Pictures Inc., with the participation of Canada Media Fund, APTN, and Manitoba Film &amp; Music.

By BILL HARRIS

Special to The Lede

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi has a great haunted-house scream.

It’s so sharp, and piercing, and seemingly out of nowhere, it even makes some of her co-investigators jump back in SNOOKI: THE PARANORMAL ROOKIE, which premieres Friday, Oct. 2, with two episodes on Crave.

So has anyone ever told Snooki that she missed her calling as a so-called “scream queen?”

“Well, I'm told that I'm always loud, so I guess so,” she said. “But yeah, when I scream, I’m genuinely scared. And throughout this entire process, I was so excited to do it, because it's on my bucket list to be a paranormal investigator. But also, I was terrified, because I'd never really done something like this with pros before. So I’m already terrified going into it. Then I hear a noise. I'm on edge. So I scream a lot because I'm nervous.”

SNOOKI: THE PARANORMAL ROOKIE follows the reality-TV icon (JERSEY SHORE) as she finally leans into her lifelong connection and unwavering belief in the spirit world. With no formal paranormal training, Snooki joins an expert team – featuring internationally acclaimed psychic medium Kevin Whitaker, occult expert and historian Missy Morrow, and paranormal tech specialist Todd Thomas – as they look for ghosts (or “ghosties,” as Snooki calls them) at reportedly haunted sites across Ontario.

In a joint interview, Snooki and Whitaker set the dark and spooky scene:

Q: Snooki uses the term “ghosties” instead of “ghosts.” This show is quite creepy at times, but “ghosties” seems to cut the tension a bit. Where did that come from?

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “I just feel like when it comes to ghosts, I want to treat them like I would people. So instead of trying to invade their space, and be annoying, I want to be bubbly to them, and be like, ‘hi, ghosties! I'm here. I want to chat.’ I want to bring a different vibe than the normal way that you see paranormal investigators go into it. I want the ghosts to have fun and be chill, so we can get some stuff.”

Q: Kevin, in your line of work, do you get the sense that the spirits are just messing with us a lot of the time?

KEVIN WHITAKER: “Definitely. There are times when a ghost either pretends to be something that they're not, or as we're engaging, we're not getting the entire picture all at once, and so we have to be careful that we're not presuming too much. But there are certainly those spirits who are just out to, you know, grant you a scare, or to mess around with who they are, and where they're from, those types of things. There are some spirits who give me everything, I can see them, hear them, I can identify where they're from, what time, and I feel like I have a reasonable engagement. And then there are some spirits who aren't accustomed to being connected with at all. We had one such location that had no paranormal history, and we really visited that place just to test the theory, and the spirit there caught me off guard completely, only because the presentation was frightening. I think that spirit frightened the entire crew. At one point Nicole looked at me and said, ‘are you scared?’ And I was like, ‘I'm a little bit rattled.’ It felt like it was the first time in 15, 20 years that I could honestly say that.”

Q: Even from the first episode to the second episode, Snooki seemed more comfortable with all this stuff. Is it fair to say she became less scared?

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “I think I needed to get the gist of it. I went in really nervous, on top of being worried that I was going to get touched by a ghost, because I feel like I always do. Then once we did the first episode in the first location, I was like, all right, it's still scary, but I feel cozy with my co-stars, and I know they have my back, because I do get scared. So I guess I felt more comfortable as it went on, but I mean, I'm still scared. That's why I have spirit juice. Spirit juice is my wine, and I have a nice glass of wine to calm my nerves. And also I feel like when I do have a glass of wine, it opens up my third eye, which is weird. So, like, I can feel the ghosties more. I don't know, I just get more out of the experience.”

Q: Kevin, what’s the biggest misconception about what you do?

KEVIN WHITAKER: “For me personally, I find that a lot of people suppose that everything I encounter is evil or negative, or that I have a fascination with the evil or negative. And really, I'm very welcoming of that wholesome, cool, ‘Casper the Friendly Ghost’ spirit being there. I'm just fascinated by what we find out, and advancing the evidence that I think people need to see.”

Q: Was there anything about doing this show that you didn’t foresee?

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “Coming from reality TV, and making sure we capture what we need to, it was way harder than I thought it would be to show what we're feeling, because sometimes you kind of have to be there to feel it. So we needed to get into the habit of saying what we were feeling out loud, or describing what we felt was around us, or what was going on, because you're not really physically getting it as a viewer unless it's on the recorders, or whatever they’re called.”

KEVIN WHITAKER: “Yeah, we have so many devices, like the SLS (Structured Light Sensor), to demonstrate a spirit in stick form. Sometimes too, adding to what Nicole was saying, we can express what we've seen, but there's a degree of, like, ‘trust me, bro.’ When we're sharing that we've had an experience with a spirit, or I've seen what I see, the audience is kind of left to believe what I've said. So it's beautiful to have Todd Thomas, he's our tech guy, come back and maybe after the investigation, after we've left a location, he's like, ‘hey, listen to what I picked up at three in the morning at this pioneer church,’ We then have the evidence supplied by him upon review.”

Q: So much of this series was essentially shot in the dark. How challenging was that?

KEVIN WHITAKER: “I'll tell you what I really appreciate about it, and it was more like a creative choice, I think, by Nicole, our executive producer, and the people behind the scenes. It’s that, rather than have the night-vision cameras that you see in most ghost-hunting shows – we're guilty of it on DARK DEALINGS as well, if you see me on YouTube, we've got the night-vision cameras and stuff – but this was shot a little bit different, with as little light cast on us as possible. I think it's important to plunge yourselves into the dark as much as we can. This one looks so different, and it's just absolutely stunning and gorgeous.”

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “When we're in the club, it's dark. So I've filmed in the dark a lot (Kevin laughs). But I feel it wasn't that hard, because you have the big lights from the cameras, so you kind of see where you're going. We have the flashlights and everything. But like Kevin said, I definitely wanted a different feel than all the night-vision greens that are always on these types of shows. I wanted it to be legit. You're in the dark with us. Like, you're there. It's scary, it's spooky, and you're seeing it the way we're seeing it.”

Q: Snooki, you made a fascinating observation that one of your gauges of comfort is asking yourself, “could I sleep in this room?” Have you always had that?

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “Yeah, ever since I was little growing up, I just felt things in my room, I felt things in the other room, I felt things walking down the hallway, I felt things outside. So I was never fully comfortable in a room unless, you know, I made the ambiance nice, and the blinds were shut. I just always felt like I was never alone in a room. So even now, going to hotels, just this past week I was in L.A., and I went in the hotel room, and I was like, this is creepy. I feel like somebody's here. So I always feel like there are ghosties walking around, and I never feel alone. So especially going on these ghost hunts, obviously we're not alone in these places. So I might say, ‘I don't think I could sleep in here, definitely not, the energy's heavy.’”

Q: Have you ever actually switched hotel rooms because of those feelings?

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “Yeah, I think once. I think it was in L.A. a long time ago. I just couldn't sleep, and I felt like someone was staring at me. You know I love my sleep, and I wasn't getting sleep, so I actually had to switch rooms because it didn't feel cozy in that room.”

Q: Finally, what do you think are some of the best fictional representations of ghosts, in TV and movies?

NICOLE “SNOOKI” POLIZZI: “Well, I'm a zombie girl. I'm always a horror girl. So when I want to chill, I put on zombies. I put on World War Z, or THE WALKING DEAD. But when it comes to paranormal and ghosts and demons, I feel like The Conjuring (available on Crave) is one of the best, and I feel like it's the most accurate. And also, when you read about the filming of The Conjuring and the sequels, there are always crazy things that happen on set to the actors and the production crew.”

KEVIN WHITAKER: “Of the two I hold up, The Conjuring also makes my list. I love the suspense and the true paranormal, entity interaction. Also, Insidious was one that really gave me chills, because it so strikes on some of the spirit encounters that I've had that were mostly negative. I'm not much for horror/slasher-type movies. I'm just out when it comes to that. But one of my earliest loves for fiction and the paranormal was Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. I love how those spirits were introduced, especially the ghost of Christmas yet to come. It really impressed me. I'm like, ‘that's pretty dang accurate.’”

The announcement solidifies the on-air team of Drew, Erin, and producer Alexa, expanding on their chemistry and connection with audiences both on-air and across the station’s digital platforms, ensuring DREW &amp; ERIN wakes up Vancouver with the same energy, hit music, and real conversations that listeners have come to love. 

Vancouver listeners have enthusiastically embraced DREW &amp; ERIN since they began leading MOVE 103.5’s morning show in June 2026, following the departure of Nat Hunter to become the new morning show co-host on Toronto’s CHUM 104.5. 

“After working together for more than 20 years, Erin already knows pretty much everything about me, which either means she's perfect for this...or it's a terrible career decision on her part!” said Drew Savage. “Regardless, this really does feel like the natural next chapter for us and our show. 'Real Friends, Real Fun' has been our slogan for years and it still fits today.” 

“Pinch me, because this is sincerely a dream come true,” said Erin Davis. “I get to step into this amazing role as co-host, and continue working every morning with my close friend and radio legend (he’ll absolutely hate that I called him that), Drew Savage! I am so incredibly happy to continue waking up with our wonderful MOVE listeners, and I can’t wait for all the fun times ahead.” 

“Vancouver listeners have built a wonderful connection with both Drew and Erin over the years,” said Jasmina Koga, Program Director, MOVE 103.5. “Together with producer Alexa, they bring an authenticity, energy, and sense of fun that resonates with our audiences every morning. We’re excited to build on that foundation and continue evolving the show in new and creative ways.” 

For more than 65 years, Vancouver’s MOVE 103.5 has been a staple for listeners across the region. Featuring "Today’s Best Variety", the station delivers a vibrant mix of the biggest contemporary hits and fan-favourite classics, along with personalities who keep Vancouver informed, entertained, and connected.  

DREW &amp; ERIN airs weekdays from 5:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. PT on MOVE 103.5 and is also available for listeners across Canada via audio livestream on iHeart.com and the iHeartRadio Canada app.

By BILL HARRIS

Special to The Lede

In the early creative stages of HBO’s WAR, the feuding legal teams were referred to unofficially as the “goodies” and the “baddies.”

This was news to star Dominic West, when those terms were openly utilized during a recent news conference promoting the show.

“But who's the good and the bad?” he asked, perplexed. “I didn't realize there was a good team and a bad team.”

“That means you’re on the bad team,” quipped creator, writer, and executive producer George Kay.

The fact is, who the audience is cheering for may well switch back and forth over the course of WAR, which premieres Thursday, Oct. 1 on Crave. But even for those who remain as neutral as a judge, it’s a heck of a battle.

WAR pits West (THE CROWN, THE AFFAIR, THE WIRE), playing a high-profile tech mogul named Morgan Henderson, against his wife Carla Duval, a successful actress played by Sienna Miller (ANATOMY OF A SCANDAL, THE LOUDEST VOICE, The Girl), in a London, England-set divorce case that takes many acrimonious twists and turns. Also fully exposed are the legal teams working relentlessly and sometimes underhandedly for their clients, with Morgan represented by an old-style firm called Cathcart and Sons, and Duval represented by a younger firm called Taylor &amp; Byrne.

“I think on-set we did fall quite comfortably into our camps, and we really shot most of this series with our respective law firms, Dom and I particularly,” Miller said. “So when we got to court, we were on opposite sides, but it was heaven, because we loved each other, and we could all hang out and be children in the green room. But it definitely felt like ‘us versus them.’”

West added, “I suppose the whole process of the case is that they're walking on this knife edge between love and war, and the lawyers are trying to push them into war.”

So did West ever go so far as to feel any empathy for the other side?

“No, not in the least,” he said.

The impetus for the story came about in a humorously random way, according to Kay.

“I was wanting to do a legal show, and I had this idea to do a show between two law firms warring with each other every season,” Kay said. “But I hadn't really found a case to tell across Season 1. So I was in this queue and minding my own business, when the woman behind me on the phone – who was a quite affluent woman, quite put-together, and sort of a strong character – started saying the word, ‘yes’, over and over into the phone. And then finally she screamed the word, ‘YES!’, and hung up.”

So what did Kay do?

“I turned around, because I'm a nosy man, and I asked her what had happened,” Kay continued. “And she said, ‘the bastard signed!’ She then told me about her four-year rollercoaster divorce, and how she was so physically relieved by this news that it was finally over. I thought, ‘maybe this is the beginnings of an idea for Season 1.’”

While nasty divorces are nothing new, they can take on an extra layer of animosity when there’s so much money involved, and public reputations are on the line. Neither Morgan nor Carla is necessarily a bad person in WAR, but they’re capable of doing bad things, and then digging in.

“George said to me, ‘(Morgan) is a benign billionaire,’” West recalled. “And I looked into billionaires. There are two and a half thousand in the world, and three of them are good. There's a really good podcast called Good Bad Billionaire, and they identified three good ones. They're usually the ones who give everything away. Most of them are just ordinary billionaires. Some are the most evil people on the planet. So it was interesting to try and find the line. (Morgan) is trying to set up a social media platform that does good. He's trying to acknowledge his wife's minimal role in setting up the business and, you know, give her tens of millions. He's trying to do the right thing, and so that had me rooting for him. And then George gives me an amazing, ruthless, horrible, bullying scene. It was great to play those two things.”

Miller came up with a great way to describe Carla, who, as a famous actress, is used to being the centre of attention.

“I think she’s someone that doesn't particularly invest in other people's energy in her orbit – she’s very much orbiting herself,” Miller said. “So she is very confident at the beginning. But then the gloves really come off. I think she's wrong-footed, she's reactive as a person, she doesn't do well with being backed into a corner. I think I have those qualities. I think I respond in a potentially kinder way to feeling defensive, but she's quite vicious, and I like that about her. That’s what makes for great TV.”

To borrow an old expression, viewers should hope for peace, but prepare for WAR.
