Corus Entertainment is leaning heavily into its long-standing content agreement for Peacock programming in its 2025/26 slate.

The Canadian broadcaster and streamer’s networks W and Showcase are getting several shows from Peacock and Sky, both of which sit in the NBCUniversal stable. Streaming service Stacktv will have all the titles, whose launch dates are currently not known. The programs were unveiled at Corus’s Specialty Upfront today in Canada.

Showcase will get The Office spinoff comedy series The Paper, which is from Greg Daniels and Michael Koman, and stars Domhnall Gleeson and Sabrina Impacciatore (The White Lotus), and The Copenhagen Test, the Simu Liu-starring espionage thriller series that follows first generation-American intelligence analyst who realizes his brain has been hacked, giving the perpetrators access to everything he sees and hears.

It will also run Ponies, another Peacock spy thriller. Starring Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson, the period drama follows two “Ponies” (“persons of no interest” in intelligence speak), who work anonymously as secretaries in the American Embassy until their husbands are killed under mysterious circumstances in the USSR and the pair become CIA operatives.

Corus is also on-board Amadeus, the Sky limited series starring Will Sharpe and Paul Bettany, based loosely about the young adult life of composer Amadeus Mozart, and new seasons of NBC comedy Ted, its spinoff Ted: The Animated Series (working title), and Bel-Air Season 4.

The female-skewed W Network has landed Peacock thriller All her Fault, starring Sarah Snook as a working mother who arrives to collect her son from his first playdate only to find the woman answering the door isn’t the mother she recognizes. It’s also snagged dark mystery comedy The ‘Burbs’ starring Keke Palmer, which is an adaptation of the 1989 film of the same name starring Tom Hanks, and the final season of Outlander, which is shopped internationally by Sony Pictures Television.

Elsewhere, more Hallmark Channel shows such as Celebrations with Lacey Chabert are on the way, alongside the Ryan Reynolds-narrated natural history series Underdogs. Flavour Network has new originals Halloween Bakeshop and Holiday Bakeshop, hosted by actress Lauren Ash, while Home Network gets Bryan and Sarah Baeumler’s latest series, Building Baeumler.

“Corus continues to lead the specialty entertainment landscape in Canada, with a portfolio that consistently delivers scale, buzz, and standout storytelling,” said Jennifer Abrams, SVP, Programming and Multiplatform, Corus Entertainment. “Our 2025/26 slate raises the bar once again—with high-profile new series, must-see returning hits, and a curated mix of content across our brands and platforms, setting the stage for an unforgettable year of entertainment.”

Corus is about to go into production on one of the buzziest shows out of Canada in a while, Private Eyes West Coast, as we revealed last week. The series will roll out on Global.

The Toronto-listed Corus, which similar to many legacy TV broadcasters has been struggling financially and was forced to make deep cuts last year, last week closed a C$500 ($365M) offer for unsecured notes in a bid to raise new capital. The company has said it will use the net proceeds to repay a portion of its debts. Back in November, Bloomberg reported Corus had engaged Jefferies Financial Group to explore a company sale.
