Programming Highlights: Canada's Dave Salmoni Hosts Summer's Most Exciting New Competition Series, EXPEDITION IMPOSSIBLE, June 23 on CTV
Posted on Thursday, June 09, 2011 - 06:41 PM
He’s a zoologist, animal trainer, lion attack survivor and, above all, made-in-Canada adventurer. Now, Ontario-native Dave Salmoni takes viewers on an EXPEDITION IMPOSSIBLE as the host of Mark Burnett’s thrilling new extreme adventure reality series, airing Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET beginning June 23 on CTV (visit CTV.ca to confirm local broadcast times). Best known for hosting Animal Planet programs like INTO THE PRIDE, Salmoni won the attention of one of television’s most influential producers, Mark Burnett (THE VOICE, SURVIVOR) to land his first role in a major U.S. network television series. Built for the job, Salmoni’s impressive credentials have equipped him to lead 13 teams of competitors on the biggest adventure of their lives. Racing against time – and through dangerous, exotic terrain in the Kingdom of Morroco – Salmoni reveals the weakest players each week, awarding the last team standing $150,000 and a new Ford Explorer. An encore broadcast of EXPEDITION IMPOSSIBLE airs Sundays on Discovery Channel beginning June 26 at 7 p.m. ET and will also be available on demand on the CTV Video Player at CTV.ca.

Posted on Tuesday, June 07, 2011 - 06:05 PM
