Sean Davidson of Playback reports on Robson Arms’ fall return:

  • Robson Arms returning in fall
    “Robson debuted in the summer of 2005 and returned earlier this year to the net’s Saturday night lineup, where it held its ground against CBC powerhouse Hockey Night in Canada, drawing between 300,000 and 400,000 viewers per episode. Its move to Monday puts it up against the second halves of Intelligence on CBC, the Global hit Heroes and the untested E! drama K-Ville.”
