Looks like another failure of a schedule with lots of low rating content.

I like this aside from the project being trimmed to half an hour.

I also thin 10:30 should be new eps of all the US dramas that have been an abject failure in prime time.

I hate it. Shocking schedule. Why put shows on that continue to fail and not deliver ratings? Why continue to air shows at 9 which clearly didn’t work in the past? American Crime Story should be given a chance. Who knows it could bring in new viewers. They did it with Zoo and it temporarily did well until people realised it was a dud.

NCIS NO only got 300-400k last time it was on a Sunday at 8:30 which suggests to me it doesn’t belong there. CSI Cyber got 200k on a Sunday so I don’t know why it would even be considered to headline a Monday night. X Files a whole 6 days after the US airs it is the worst idea ever. Especially on the same night as Walking Dead. Madam Secretary will be given an 8:30 slot but shouldn’t be.

And do you realise Life in Pieces is a half hour sitcom as is Grinder. You know if these shows will have to build an audience on their own. David Attenborough really, really struggled last time it was on at 7:30 and gets about 200k on Saturdays. So don’t know if that really will work.

It is only a mock. Of course (Life In Pieces) (The Grinder) :slightly_smiling: as I am burning it off. I see your point about David Attenborough.

Burning off new shows…great idea!! I reckon you should pursue a career in tv programming.

Already airing Modern Family repeats and its quarter 1?

I hope ten can deliver a better schedule than this.

I believe, if they follow international versions, Family Feud All Stars will be an hour in length. I would also assume Long Lost Family would be an hour in length.

I’m not sure why you would air Modern Family repeats on Wednesdays and leave out Celebrity for that day. Bit confused by that.

Some of it is confirmed. I thought you said David Attenborough shouldn’t be in the schedule. I’m A Celebrity is in but that is for when it is finished.

I didn’t mention david attenborough…

Yes here “David Attenborough really, really struggled last time it was on at 7:30 and gets about 200k on Saturdays. So don’t know if that really will work.”

What’s that got to do with your schedule you posted the other day? You didn’t put in David Attenborough. So why would it have anything to do with your amended schedule?

This isn’t really what I would do if I were a network programmer but this is what ten could do with the shows they have already committed to and what I would do around them:

SUNDAY

Great idea. Ten This Morning is a great concept for a breakfast show based on CBS’ version of the same name.
