E! spotlights Canadians
Canwest is upping the Canadian content on the E! network with True Hollywood Stories, a new series that spotlights northern talents including Nelly Furtado and Céline Dion.
Billed as made in Canada, and about Canadians, the 10-ep run begins August 6 with a look at game show host and Global TV mainstay Howie Mandel (pictured). Next up in the 10 pm spot: profiles of Dion, Furtado, Jim Carrey and the late wrestler Chris Benoit.
Another five episodes slated for fall will look at Kim Cattrall, Michael Cera, Hayden Christensen and Kiefer Sutherland.
