TORONTO, Dec. 15, 2011 /CNW/ - This January, Corus Entertainment's OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network (Canada) presents the premiere of the new original series, Million Dollar Neighbourhood, an unprecedented social experiment set in Aldergrove, British Columbia in which 100 families have only 10 weeks to raise their collective net worth by $1 million. Produced by Force Four Entertainment Inc. in association with OWN (Canada), this series premieres Sunday, January 22 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

In the face of crushing debt, massive credit card bills, rocketing housing costs and out-of-control spending, the families step out of their comfort zones to tackle their financial problems together. The one-hour series is co-hosted by financial expert Bruce Sellery and clinical psychologist Dr. Joti Samra, who help the Aldergove neighbours address their personal problems with tough love and uncompromising directness.
