''Traders'' is a Canadian television drama series, which was broadcast on Global Television Network from 1996 to 2000. ==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. The show was set in a Bay Street investment bank, Gardner Ross. Bruce Gray and Sonja Smits starred as the firm's senior partners, Adam Cunningham and Sally Ross. The cast also included Patrick McKenna, David Cubitt, Rick Roberts, Chris Leavins, Gabriel Hogan, David Hewlett, Peter Stebbings and Alex Carter. The show, although one of the most popular Canadian television series of its era, was expensive to produce. In the 1998-1999 season, Global entered a joint production arrangement with CBC, and the series was shown on ''both'' networks for several months. However, this arrangement did not last into the show's next season. ''Traders'' reruns are currently aired on Canadian digital television station, MovieTime. The exterior shots of Gardner Ross are of the Canada Permanent Trust Building at 320 Bay Street in Toronto, currently the offices of CIBC Mellon. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Traders (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
