FRAGGLE ROCK

Using the code name ‘Raphanis,’ the ’80s children’s classic Fraggle Rock was successfully revised last year. Co-produced by New Regency Productions and The Jim Henson Company, this true-to-the-original crew has begun its second season at Calgary’s Film Centre – a favourite amongst prestigious companies.

HEARTLAND

A multi-generational saga about family, Heartland is currently filming its 16th season here in Alberta. From High River to the Cowboy Trail, this long-running CBC original has covered a ton of ground in and around the province – although the majority of the show is shot at a Ranch in Millarville about 40 minutes from Calgary.

To catch up on all the action you can watch all 15 seasons on Netflix now,

FARGO

Despite filming in and around Chicago last season, Fargo – a production all too familiar to Albertans, will be back this fall. If of course, you’re unfamiliar with the show, this anthology series will star Jon Hamm (Mad Men), Juno Temple (Ted Lasso), Jennifer Jason Leigh (Atypical) and Joe Keery (Stranger Things). Unfortunately, producer Noah Hawley has stayed pretty hush-hush about the plot so we’ll have to wait to see what’s up.
