Robson Arms is a Canadian television series that began airing on CTV Television Network on June 17, 2005. Robson Arms is a coproduction between Vancouver-based Omni Film Productions and Halifax's Creative Atlantic Communications.

The show is a dramatic anthology organized around the Robson Arms, an apartment building in Vancouver, most likely on Robson Street. Each of the show's 13 episodes will focus on a different tenant of the building. The second season aired on CTV on February 10, 2007 & February 17, 2007 on The Comedy Network.

It was created to fulfill a licensing requirement of CTV's Vancouver station, CIVT, which originally promised, as an independent station, to produce 20 episodes of an anthology series entitled The Storytellers. Only ten such episodes were produced. The CRTC did not agree that CIVT's new network programming supplanted this commitment and asked the station to fulfill its promise (Decision CRTC 2001-457-13 at 10). CTV believed the anthology would be more successful as a series with common characters, and Robson Arms was the result.
