When CTV announced in February that the W5 program was being cancelled, they did say at the time that W5 would be converted into an investigative news unit. So Oct. 5 is the airing of the first hour-long documentary from the W5 investigative news unit but it's not a revival of the W5 weekly series. The unit is also doing a five-part series for CTV National News that will begin airing on Monday. Both the documentary and the series are on the related topic of the Darien Gap narcotics and migration trail between Central and South America.

Now do the logical thing and bring back Lisa Laflamme with a huge raise and a big apology.

That's a good idea. Alternatively, if you're another broadcasting company, give Lisa her own show.

Looking forward to seeing W5 back on the idiot box and how terrific to read something positive about the journalism business for a change.
