Colours’ Big August Celebration

Those of you who have been reading this blog for a while now would know that one of the things that I enjoy doing when I want to relax is to watch TV. When I watch TV though, I usually stick to my favorite shows, although when hubby or any of our kids are around, I do watch their favorite shows with them too.

I also have my favorite channels. I usually prefer movie channels or lifestyle channels. Speaking of lifestyle channels, have you heard about Colours? Colours is the country’s fastest-growing pay TV lifestyle channel. It is the channel that gives women a peek into the finer things in life. If you don’t have this channel yet, you should know that it is now available in 91 additional provincial cable providers, garnering a total reach of 1.4 million subscribers to date.

Because of its growing success, Colours would like to give back to it’s subscribers for their untiring support. Colours is unwrapping up some BIG presents for the whole month of August.

BIG NEW OFFERING: Colours For Reel

I am big sucker for love stories especially romantic comedies so I’m really excited about what Colours has in store for those like m, with Colours for Reel.

Proving that love is a never-ending story, Colours is delivering some of the big screen’s best love stories this rainy season straight into the comforts of your own home all Sundays of the month.

 

August 10 delivers a romantic comedy movie that tries to tackle the challenges of understanding human behavior when it comes to love. The movie “He’s Just Not That Into You” stars Jennifer Aniston, Scarlett Johansson, Bradley Cooper, and Ben Affleck.

 

August 17 shows how love is worth taking risks by bringing Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall and the whole cast of Sex & The City. Jennifer Lopez and Jane Fonda prove how love endures with Monster-In-Law on August 24.  The Time Traveller’s Wife shows that love transcends time with Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana.

 

Colours For Reel starts at 9:00PM on Sundays with replays on Mondays at 8:00PM.

I love all these movies! They’re the types of movies I would never get tired of watching.

BIG IN TASTE

Love stories aren’t for you? But you love food? Well, Colours also has something big in store for you this August. Check this out!

August brings in new food shows to all the subscribers of Colours. “Cook Yourself Thin” starts on August 17 at 8:30PM. This Colours exclusive features culinary experts Candice Kumai, Harry Eastwood and Allison Fishman as they prove how clever cooking can cut the calories but double the flavor on your favorite meals.

 

Coming back for an exclusive second season is “Restaurant Stakeout” on August 18 at 10:00PM. Join Willie Degel as he captures the drama unfold of owning a restaurant. Through the use of hidden cameras, the show lets owners see what is happening behind their backs as they try and solve their establishment’s problems.

BIG IN LIVING IN STYLE

If you’re not that into love stories or food shows but you’re interested in let’s say, gardening or even about celebrity stories, you’d be happy to know that Colours has something for you too.

Another treat for subscribers is the return of Matt Blashaw and Ahmed Hassan for their fourth season of DIY Yard Crashers on August 20 at 8:00PM. Watch them as they transform dull and ordinary yards to special and exciting havens for the homeowners.

 

Another Colours new offering premieres this August 20 at 10:00PM. “Who Do You Think You Are” gives Hollywood celebrities the chance to discover themselves find out just who they think they are by researching their family tree. As the participants play detectives, their exploits lead them to a road of self discovery ultimately uncovering family secrets and ending with some unexpected results.

I personally have seen a few episodes of “Who Do You Think You Are”. I love learning about the family history of popular celebrities. They’re really very interesting. Makes me think of taking time one day to do that for my family too.

If you ask me, I think that the line up of shows that Colours is offering its subscribers this August is awesome! So, if you don’t have Colours yet, do check it out!
