SERIES PREMIERES
PLUCKED
Plucked documents the lives of six talented Canadian Country music acts that are given one shot at stardom. This CMT original production documents how stars-in-training are coached by music industry experts in Toronto in order to “make it big.” The only question is, do they have what it takes to succeed? In a special two-hour finale, CMT viewers decide as they vote for their favourite.
Each episode follows the daily life of one of the hopefuls, exploring their day jobs, their hopes, families and friends, and their unpolished songs. In Toronto, they're in for a rapid transformation where dreams, a remarkable opportunity, and the reality of a tough industry all collide. From small towns to urban centres, participants are enrolled in music industry boot camp. Plucked airs Mondays at 10 p.m., (r) Tuesdays at 7 p.m. and Saturdays at 6 p.m., premiering Monday, October 2.
THE ULTIMATE COYOTE UGLY SEARCH
With a plan to breathe life back into her cornerstone New Orleans bar, hit hard by Hurricane Katrina, the tough-talking founder of the legendary bar chain Coyote Ugly, Liliana Lovell hits the road in a nationwide bartender search in the Canadian premiere of The Ultimate Coyote Ugly Search. Starting at the original bar in New York City, Lovell and two trusted veterans travel the nation by bus picking up Coyote wannabes in cities including Nashville, Austin, San Antonio, Denver and finally, New Orleans. The girls face gruelling auditions and emotional cuts in their quest for the title of Ultimate Coyote and $25,000 cash. Lovell’s original combination of booze and beautiful women will have CMT viewers on the edge of their barstools. Hugely successful on CMT in the U.S., The Ultimate Coyote Ugly Search airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. and (r) Sundays at 9 p.m., premiering Thursday, October 5.
