Series debuts for Monday, July 24. Check local listings for exact times in your area.

Northern Town, CBC: Watch for the series debut of Northern Town on CBC at 9 p.m. It's described as the adventures of a small community living near a meteorite landing site. From the official website:

"During a cold spell in mid-January, near a small town in northern Canada, a meteorite flashes across the sky, explodes in the atmosphere, and falls onto the ice of a nearby lake."

Slings & Arrows, The Movie Network: Also on Monday, at 10 p.m. ET, Slings & Arrows returns to The Movie Network for its third and final season. From the official website:

"Taking viewers backstage into the misadventures of the New Burbage Theatre Festival, in season three, Artistic Director Geoffrey (Paul Gross) is burdened with the pressure to produce a follow-up to his previous hit production Macbeth. With his ghostly mentor Oliver Wells (Stephen Ouimette) too busy trying to 'crossover,' and his one-time love Ellen (Martha Burns) preoccupied by the effects of his troubling mental state on her, Geoffrey finds support in Charles Kingsman (William Hutt), an aging Canadian actor wrestling with the fear of playing King Lear. Unbeknownst to Geoffrey, Charles is also the one person harbouring a secret that could jeopardize the entire production as well as his own future at the festival."
