“Being Erica” is a Canadian comedy-drama TV series that was broadcast on CBC from January 5, 2009, to December 12, 2011. Created by Jana Sinyor, the show was initially introduced by CBC as “The Session” but was renamed “Being Erica” before its 2009 premiere. Produced by Temple Street Productions and distributed globally by BBC Worldwide, the series features Erin Karpluk as Erica Strange, a woman who consults a therapist to address her life’s regrets. She soon discovers that her therapist can send her back in time to revisit and potentially alter these past events.

In Canada, the second season kicked off on September 22, 2009, but only 12 episodes were made due to CBC’s budget constraints. On May 11, 2010, CBC confirmed the renewal of “Being Erica” for a third season consisting of 13 episodes, with Soapnet also agreeing to air the entire third season. Season 3 premiered on September 21, 2010, at 9 pm ET on CBC Television, and in the U.S., it began airing on Soapnet from January 26, 2011.

The fourth and final season was broadcast in the fall of 2011. Although CBC never officially canceled the series, Sinyor mentioned to TV Guide during the airing of the fourth season that the show had naturally concluded, and she had no intention of creating a fifth season.
