Blackstone to end successful run

October 5, 2015. Blackstone, produced by the Edmonton-based company Prairie Dog Film + Television, is entering its fifth and final season. “We’ve had an incredible run with Blackstone on APTN, and together we have taken the show to places where we could have only dreamed of when we started,” said Ron E. Scott, executive producer, writer, and director. “The series' final season is once again filled with intense, hard-hitting issues that have challenged viewers’ perception of socially conscious storytelling on television.”  The award-winning predominately Aboriginal cast has roots across Canada, and includes Ashley Callingbull-Burnham and Michelle Thrush. In the new season of&nbsp Blackstone, there is hope in the midst of adversity as the Blackstone First Nation strives toward a better life by building a stronger community. The
show airs Nov. 3 on APTN, with the final episode slated for Dec. 22.
