Media in Canada sister publication Playback has chosen Susanne Boyce as its 2004 Person of the Year. As CTV’s president of programming, Boyce has led her network to a banner year, with the station holding the rights to 13 of the country’s top 20 shows. From homegrown hits like Canadian Idol and Corner Gas to prescient acquisitions such as Lost and Desperate Housewives, CTV had the Midas touch this year, and at the network the lion’s share of the credit goes to Boyce. The Playback Year In Review issue profiling Boyce’s accomplishments hits newstands Jan. 3.
