From a media release:
CTV Comedy Channel heads back to Grouse Lake First Nation as the hit original series ACTING GOOD returns for Season 3 beginning Oct. 21 with a two-episode premiere at 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy, CTV.ca, and the CTV app, before moving into its regular timeslot of 10:30 p.m. ET/PT, beginning Oct. 28. Filmed on location in Winnipeg and Brokenhead Ojibway Nation, the 10-episode half-hour series brings humour as it shares the ups and downs of reserve life at Grouse Lake. ACTING GOOD returns as the #1 series among the key A25-54 demo for two years in a row on Canada’s most-watched English entertainment specialty network, CTV Comedy.
Kicking-off with a two-episode special premiere (Monday, Oct. 21 at 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy, CTV.ca, and the CTV app), Season 3 follows Paul (Paul Rabliauskas) as he and his on-again off-again girlfriend, Rose (Cheyenna Sapp), navigate the possibility of parenthood. Meanwhile, Jo (Roseanne Supernault, THE DRIVE) juggles being Chief with raising her daughter, Chickadee (Avery Sutherland, STELLAR). Controlled chaos prevails as Dean (Gabriel Daniels, THE ICE ROAD) and Greg (Erik Athavale, BED REST) face the realities of running their new business and community store, Yeah Man.
In the season premiere, titled “The Keemootch Room” (Monday, Oct. 21 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy, CTV.ca, and the CTV app), Paul and Rose’s hopes to start a family are challenged due to their not-so-private room attached to Agnes’ (Tina Keeper, NORTH OF 60) house, and scheming elders haunting them about the pressures of parenthood. Meanwhile, Chief Jo finds herself at odds with Wastekeeper Willie (Ryan Black, ABERDEEN), when he takes offense at her lack of respect toward him, and Dean and Greg’s attempts to get their new co-op off the ground are hampered by Dean’s preoccupation with his new girlfriend, Gale (Ashley Callingbull).
In Episode 2, titled “Baby Daddy Games” (Monday, Oct. 21 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on CTV Comedy, CTV.ca, and the CTV app), when Paul finds out that his sperm count is shockingly low, he and Rose hold a contest to find their new baby daddy. After her attempts at dealing with the garbage strike fall flat, Chief Jo learns a lesson in serenity from her former boss, while Dean tries to liven things up at Yeah Man, with mixed results.
