New in Canada Today (Thursday, Sept. 17): Stranger Things: Tales From ‘85, Howard Stern on Crave and Dragons’ Den

Quick answer:

• Netflix Canada posts five titles at 3 a.m. ET, and the two people are waiting for are Stranger Things: Tales From ‘85 Season 2 and Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story.
• The Howard Stern Show begins its weekly filmed run at 3:01 a.m. ET; Crave is where it should land here, though Bell Media has not listed it.
• After supper: Dragons’ Den opens Season 21 at 8 p.m. on CBC, and CTV2 is down for the two-hour launch of The Traitors: New Blood.

What’s new on Netflix Canada today?

Five titles, and the anthology crowd gets the bigger one. Ryan Murphy’s Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story arrives as a full season, while Stranger Things: Tales From ‘85 picks up its animated run with a second season — Netflix dropped a Season 1 recap to its own channel on Monday, which is usually a sign the new batch is all there at once.

Three international series round out the day: The Fixers from Taiwan, Not a Stranger from Turkey and Plastic Beauty from Japan. Everything appears at 12 a.m. PT — 3 a.m. in Toronto, 4 a.m. in Halifax — and our September comparison of Crave and Netflix sets out what each service is holding this month.

Is The Howard Stern Show on Crave in Canada?

SiriusXM’s announcement puts the first filmed episode on HBO Max globally at 3:01 a.m. ET today, with new ones every Thursday, three days behind the live satellite show. HBO Max does not sell subscriptions in Canada, so Crave is the address for HBO and Max Originals here.

Channel Canada’s Crave week does list the series premiere for today. Bell Media’s own Sept. 16–22 overview does not mention it — not confirmed at time of writing. What that overview does name for Thursday is Corner Gas Animated, Season 4, a Canadian series with no drop time attached. Our guide to HBO titles on Crave covers how that arrangement works.

What else lands on Prime Video, Paramount+ and Disney+?

Paramount+ Canada brings back South Park for a 29th season, then runs new episodes every second Thursday; the exclusive film Preschool goes up the same day. Disney+ Canada is quieter, with one new episode of Get Real.

Prime Video Canada’s September schedule lists Moral Night and the exclusive Sultana for today, a much smaller day than Wednesday’s eight-episode Neagley dump.

What’s on Canadian television tonight?

Dragons’ Den returns at 8 p.m. on CBC and CBC Gem for Season 21. AWS Canada confirmed its own hook for the opener: a $100,000 grant of cloud credits and mentorship handed to one pitch in the premiere episode.

Channel Canada’s CTV list has The Traitors: New Blood starting at 8 p.m. ET on CTV2, matching NBC’s two-hour launch of the spin-off — 22 Americans with no reality-TV history, Alan Cumming, a Scottish castle and a prize pot of up to $250,000. The Canadian edition is four days behind it: sister site CA Reality On Air has the Traitors Canada Season 4 date and time, and our network map shows which broadcaster carries each American series.

What time does each title land in Canada?

Two clocks are at work in that table. Streaming times are absolute — 3 a.m. ET is midnight on the West Coast — while the CBC and CTV2 slots are local, so 8 p.m. in Halifax and 8 p.m. in Vancouver. The week’s full list sits in our roundup for the week of Sept. 14, and the Dancing with the Stars timing post explains why a few American shows reach Canadian screens a day late.

Frequently asked questions

Does Canada get Tales From ‘85 at the same moment as the US?
Yes. Netflix releases it worldwide at once, which works out to 3 a.m. ET, midnight PT and 4:30 a.m. in St. John’s.

Can I subscribe to HBO Max in Canada to watch Stern?
No. HBO Max is not sold here, and Crave holds the Canadian rights to HBO and Max Originals under a deal that runs for several more years.

How often will South Park air this season?
Every second Thursday on Paramount+ Canada, starting today.
