Nevertheless, even after these requirements were dropped, the format was maintained; all told, the series presented almost 1,500 films and over 1,000 interviews. The show was produced for much of its run by Risa Shuman.[3] Broadcast historyElwy Yost eraFirst aired on March 30, 1974, the program was originally hosted by Elwy Yost. The first film shown was Ingmar Bergman's Through a Glass Darkly.[2] During Yost's 25-year tenure as host, he showed a variety of foreign films, but tended to concentrate on Hollywood-produced films from the 1930s through the 1950s, slowly expanding into also showing films from the 1960s and 1970s as the series progressed. For a number of years, however, the show was not able to broadcast films from the Warner Bros. studio, as TVOntario's transmitter in Windsor created a programming rights conflict with stations in Detroit.[4] In his final decade hosting the show, Yost lived in Vancouver, British Columbia, and would travel to Toronto to prepare many episodes of the show at once.[3] Yost retired as host of the series in 1999.[5] The last film he presented was, atypically, a recent Hollywood blockbuster: Speed was personally chosen by Yost to conclude his run as host, as it was written by his son, screenwriter Graham Yost.[5] Around the same time as his retirement, he was inducted into the Order of Canada.[6] After YostSoon after Yost's retirement, the Progressive Conservative government of Mike Harris appointed Isabel Bassett as chair of TVOntario, with a mandate to refocus the network's broadcast schedule more clearly on education.[7] Although there was some concern that the network would lose Saturday Night at the Movies, its highest-rated program,[8] Bassett instead negotiated an agreement with York University to include the series in its film studies curriculum.[9] Yost was replaced as host for one season by Shelagh Rogers, concurrently with her continuing role as host of CBC Stereo's classical music program Take Five.[5] When Rogers became the host of CBC Radio's morning news program This Morning in 2000, she left Saturday Night at the Movies, which briefly changed to a hostless format.[10] At this time, the series added a Sunday night companion series, Sunday Night at the Cinema, which focused more on international film.[4] The program was then hosted by Johanna Schneller for two seasons beginning in 2004.[11] The show's final host, for the remainder of its run, was Thom Ernst.[12] On November 13, 2012, it was announced that TVO would cancel Saturday Night at the Movies as of the end of the 2012-2013 season, amidst budget cuts incurred by the network.[13] The final edition of Saturday Night at the Movies was broadcast on August 31, 2013, featuring two foreign films as its last movies: The Lives of Others (at 8 P.M.), and Black Book (starting at 10:50 P.M.)
