Traders (TV Series)
''Traders'' is a Canadian television drama series, which was broadcast on Global Television Network from 1996 to 2000 and CBC Television from 1997 to 1998. The series centred on the employees of Gardner Ross, an investment bank in the Bay Street financial district of Toronto, Ontario. Series overview Although Global had locked up most of NBC's " Must See Thursday" situation comedies for their Thursday night broadcasts, they lost the rights to broadcast the medical drama '' ER'' to rival CTV. ''Traders'' was broadcast against ''ER'' in the 10 p.m. Thursday time slot. Many critics at the time believed the show would die an early death against the time slot competition, as ''ER'' had even beaten the other American networks in the time slot in a convincing manner. However, despite the stiff competition, ''Traders'' received good ratings, in part thanks to its lead-ins. Bruce Gray and Sonja Smits starred as the firm's senior partners, Adam Cunningham and Sally Ross. The cast also ...
