MasterChef (U.S. TV series) is not produced by Shine America.
In the UK and Ireland, most programmes are referred to as 'series' while 'season' is starting to be used for some US and international releases
 Only the public CBC Television normally schedules Canadian-produced programming throughout the year; the commercial networks typically now avoid scheduling Canadian productions to air in the fall, as such shows commonly get lost amid the publicity onslaught of the US fall season
