Saving Hopes returns with 1.7 million viewers

From a media release:

Deja-View: SAVING HOPE Returns with Another 1.7 Million Viewers

  • Canada’s #1 new series/summer drama tops BIG BROTHER for a second time

Another 1.7 million viewers tuned into last night’s all-new episode of SAVING HOPE. Head-to-head against BIG BROTHER, Canada’s #1 new series/summer drama also delivered 6% more viewers than the CBS/GLOBAL simulcast (1.6 million total viewers). SAVING HOPE continues to surge, with last night’s episode delivering new series high overnight audiences with the key A18-34 and A18-49 demos. Last night’s episode picked up from the emotional fall out after a cliffhanger episode that delivered a series high 1.9 million viewers on July 26 (overnight audience was 1.7 million) and saw Charlie (Michael Shanks) taken off his ventilator.

In next week’s episode, “A New Beginning” (Thursday, Aug. 24 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CTV), Joel (Danielle Gillies) returns to the OR for the first time since injuring his hand but gets cold feet. Kinney (Wendy Crewson) decides that Joel needs to get away from the hospital, and invites him to come with her on a Continuing Medical Education expedition to her hometown of Elsinore. During their field trip, a woman gets pinned underneath a truck and Joel and Kinney lead the rescue effort. Back at Hope Zion, Charlie (Michael Shanks) meets a newly deceased therapist who suspects it’s an emotional block that is keeping him in his coma. Meanwhile, Alex (Erica Durance) examines a man with swelling in his chest after an accident at the gym, and discovers he has an underlying condition not common in men.

Saving Hope caught between two masters

From Scott Stinson of the National Post:

  • Saving Hope, save thyself: Big Canadian ratings no guarantee for new series
    On a visit to the set of Saving Hope in the spring, I asked actor Michael Shanks whether he had noticed any differences since NBC had decided to add the CTV original production to its summer schedule. Shanks, who plays Charlie, the comatose surgeon who lies in a bed at Hope Zion Hospital — and, in the show’s significant twist, also wanders the rooms in a not-particularly-defined spirit sense — was forthright about what happens when, midway through production, a second major network comes on board.
