Living is a group of regional lifestyle television programs that aired on CBC Television stations in Canada. The intitial broadcast was on January 15, 2007. Each CBC station which aired Living produced its own locally oriented program. Most used the title format Living (Location), although the shows in Toronto and Ottawa were titled Living in (Location) due to similarly-named programs on Rogers TV in those markets.
Similar to the 1970s U.S. syndicated series PM Magazine, each local Living program consists of a mixture of locally-produced segments and others produced for national broadcast.
In most markets, the series aired at 3:00 p.m. local time weekdays. Repeats of the Newfoundland and Labrador edition, which initially aired at 3:30 NT, later aired Tuesday to Friday at 7:00 p.m. NT on CBNT, to fill the gap in the national schedule caused by the local newscast airing at 6:00 p.m. NT.
Due to budgetary issues, the Living programs were not continued past the end of the 2008-09 season.[1] The final episodes of each Living series aired on August 28, 2009.
