Corus promotes new stars and old hits in plans for Global and specialty channels
- Corus Entertainment announced its 2025/26 slate featuring new stars and returning hits across Global and its specialty networks, including Flavour and Home.
- In December, the company introduced the Flavour and Home channels to fill the slots previously occupied by the cooking and lifestyle networks that Rogers now owns, while advocating for relaxed Canadian content spending regulations.
- Corus intends to allocate the approximately $35 million saved from lowered PNI spending toward expanding unscripted, lifestyle, and reality programming, while still supporting scripted projects such as the upcoming second seasons of Canadian-made crime dramas including the Vancouver-based spinoff of "Private Eyes."

- Despite focusing on Canadian identity with stars like the Baeumlers, Corus acknowledges audiences also seek international shows, as competition from Rogers intensifies with new multi-year deals.
