Show Summary

  • Ended
E.N.G. (an abbreviation which means Electronic News Gathering) was a primetime Canadian drama that dealt with the personal lives of a group of newscasters and staff in the newsroom of a fictitious Toronto news station. Ann Hildebrandt was the executive producer of the news at station CTLS-TV 10; and she was having a secret affair with Jake Antonelli, the young hotshot cameraman. Her world was rocked with the arrival of Mike Fennell, the new News Director who had eyes for ratings. Their opinions clashed, but they only had the best interests of the station and their co-workers in mind. Among the other characters in CTLS' newsroom were Kyle Copeland, the station manager; Jane Oliver and (age-conscious) Seth Miller were the anchors; Bruce Foreman was a schemer; Marge Atherton was the motherly editor and source of strength for all; JC was an assignment editor; and Dan Watson was an insensitive, smarmy reporter.''''Some of the episodes were shown on Lifetime Cable network from 1989-1990. The show ran for a couple more years in Canada, until it was cancelled. The show was produced by Alliance Communications Corporation, CTV and Tlfilm Canada.''''Gemini Awards History:''''1995 -- Nominated -- Best Dramatic Series -- David Barlow, Jennifer Black, Robert Lantos''1995 -- Nominated -- Best Guest Performance in a Series by an Actor -- Clark Johnson''1995 -- Nominated -- Best Guest Performance in a Series by an Actress -- Natalie Radford''1995 -- Nominated -- Best Original Music Score for a Series -- Micky Erbe, Maribeth Solomon''1995 -- Nominated -- Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role -- Cynthia Belliveau''''1994 -- Won -- Best Dramatic Series -- Greg Copeland, Jennifer Black, Robert Lantos''1994 -- Nominated -- Best Writing in a Dramatic Series -- David Cole''''1993 -- Won -- Best Dramatic Series -- Robert Lantos, Jeff King, Jennifer Black, Bob Carney''1993 -- Won -- Best Performance by a Supporting Actor -- Jonathan Welsh''1993 -- Won -- Best Performance by an Actress in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role -- Sara Botsford''1993 -- Nominated -- Best Direction in a Dramatic or Comedy Series -- Ren Bonnire''1993 -- Nominated -- Best Guest Performance in a Series by an Actor or Actress -- Robin Gammell''1993 -- Nominated -- Best Performance by an Actor in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role -- Art Hindle''1993 -- Nominated -- Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role -- Theresa Tova''1993 -- Nominated -- Best Writing in a Dramatic Series -- Peter Lauterman, Angelo Stea''1993 -- Nominated -- Best Writing in a Dramatic Series -- Barbara Samuels, Wayne Grigsby''''1992 -- Won -- Best Dramatic Series -- Bob Carney, Jennifer Black, Jeff King, Robert Lantos''1992 -- Won -- Best Guest Performance in a Series by an Actor or Actress -- Michelle St. John''1992 -- Won -- Best Writing in a Dramatic Series -- Wayne Grigsby''1992 -- Nominated -- Best Direction in a Dramatic or Comedy Series -- Peter Rowe''1992 -- Nominated -- Best Guest Performance in a Series by an Actor or Actress -- Maurice Godin''1992 -- Nominated -- Best Performance by an Actress in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role -- Sara Botsford''1992 -- Nominated -- Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role -- Sherry Miller''1992 -- Nominated -- Best Sound in a Dramatic Program or Series -- David Midgley, Nolan Roberts, Dan Latour''''1990 -- Won -- Best Dramatic Series -- Bob Carney, Jennifer Black, Jeff King, Robert Lantos''1990 -- Won -- Best Performance by a Lead Actor in a Continuing Dramatic Role -- Art Hindle''1990 -- Won -- Best Writing in a Dramatic Series -- R.B.

  • Borderline acceptable. How far down has television sunk to these days. Not to disrespect the creators of E.N.G. but I guess it's simply the trend of tv these days (nothing good on.) Time poorly wasted.moreless

    Borderline acceptable. How far down has television sunk to these days. Not to disrespect the creators of E.N.G. but I guess it's simply the trend of tv these days (nothing good on.) Time poorly wasted. This show is not nice, but the borderline of the story is only acceptable.ok ok ok
