The Originals to Air on CHCH

I had been scouring the Canadian broadcast schedules for months looking for where The Vampire Diaries spin-off The Originals would be airing. Finally it's popped up on a schedule and we can now share that The Originals will be airing on CHCH.

Here is a little be more about The Originals: "An offshoot of The Vampire Diaries, The Originals centers on the Mikaelson siblings, otherwise known as the world’s original vampires: Klaus (Joseph Morgan), Elijah (Daniel Gillies), and Rebekah (Claire Holt).

The Original Vampire family pledge to remain together, but now their bonds of family are broken and Klaus reacts to an anonymous tip that someone is plotting against the family in the place they helped build, New Orleans."

The Originals will premiere on CHCH on Thursday October 3, 2013 at 8pm and then find it's new home on Tuesday nights starting Tuesday October 8, 2013. This puts the shows Canadian airings on CHCH in close alignment with it's home broadcaster of The CW.

I'm so relieved we will be getting The Originals here in Canada. I was initially skeptical of this show and the idea of a back-door pilot during Season 4 of The Vampire Diaries, but after seeing that episode it looks like it's going to be awesome. Thank you CHCH!
