What's new on Canadian streaming & TV in November 2022?

This is a special edition of Watching This Week, our regular weekly newsletter (#86 for October 31, 2022). Due to the timing of the new month and other factors, we decided to focus on getting this guide ready, rather than preparing a separate newsletter. We'll aim to catch up on recent news and Mailbag questions next Monday.

The guide below covers most of the Monday-Sunday range we'd normally include in the "What's new this week" section of our regular newsletter format. The only programs of note from our October guide that are premiering tonight, October 31, are two editions of Into the Dark – "The Body" and "Uncanny Annie" – on Hollywood Suite.

It's time for our monthly summary of notable new programming coming to streaming services and TV channels in Canada.

This is not intended as a complete list, but where practical we will provide links to fuller information. While we do mention a few reality and documentary shows and the like, our main focus is on notable scripted programming.

Scheduled release dates are those indicated by the providers and are subject to change. Prices are listed by WCIW for convenience, and are likewise subject to change. Listed prices do not include any applicable sales taxes, which vary by province. The web version of this post may be updated occasionally during the month, though we cannot commit to updating everything that might be added or changed.

This month, we've tried bolding the titles of a few programs, including premieres and returns that seem to us to be particularly notable, and specific shows that our readers have asked about in the past. However, we are not critics and recognize that tastes vary.

Netflix

As of November 1, Netflix costs between $5.99 and $20.99 per month in Canada, with variables including ad-supported vs. ad-free programming and picture resolution.

Netflix Canada posts its monthly listings on social media, including Twitter and YouTube. Where necessary, we've cross-referenced against other sources.

Because of the sheer amount of content Netflix releases each month, we've typically been more judicious with the number of items listed compared to other services, so we encourage you to consult the full lists if you're waiting on a specific program.

New programs are normally released at 3:00 a.m. ET (midnight PT) on the date indicated, unless otherwise noted.
