Nine Network - Programs and Schedules

Why are they showing the umteenth repeat of a movie in a mid-week timeslot at the start of ratings season? A sad state of affairs from all the networks in Australia.

Nine has been showing Ultimate Airport Dubai on Friday nights. But with the start of NRL season, the second half of the series won’t be shown in Sydney and Brisbane (it will continue in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth), meaning viewers will have to go to 9Now to catch up.

Because My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 will hit cinemas on March 24.

The Sunday Herald Sun is reporting Hey Hey It’s Saturday is returning to Nine in 2016.

Yuck! Was that a condition of Darryl returning to host that other show?

Can’t they see revivals don’t work. AGT is a flop.

I can’t see it working as a series, not now. But stick to 3-4 eps a year and build them up as special events, that could work.

Maybe.

Its a bit dated. Even as special events. Maybe work on a new variety show rather than reviving a tired format that doesnt relate to viewers anymore.

Movie in Brisbane changed to Robocop

I don’t mind some sort of a variety show returning to Saturday nights, but not Hey Hey Its Saturday. Not in the form we saw in 2010.

MICHAEL JACKSON’S JOURNEY FROM MOTOWN TO OFF THE WALL

Sunday 20 March at 9.10pm

The undisputed King of Pop hits our screens when Michael Jackson’s Journey from Motown to Off the Wall premieres on Sunday, March 20, at 9.10pm on Channel Nine.

The fascinating documentary, produced by Spike Lee, brings together never-before-seen footage, including material from Jackson’s personal collection, and interviews with musicians Pharrell Williams, Mark Ronson and John Legend, plus family members Katherine Jackson, Joe Jackson and Marlon Jackson.

See a rare chapter of Jackson’s stellar career, from signing his first deal with Motown Records as a member of The Jackson 5 to embarking on a new path with CBS Records and forging an unbreakable musical bond with legendary producer Quincy Jones.

The Off the Wall album released in 1979, co-produced by Jones and Jackson, was his solo debut. It sold over 20 million copies worldwide, made him an instant superstar, and became one of the biggest selling albums of all time. Three decades later, Off the Wall’s timeless mixture of pop and funk saw it inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2008.

See how one of the most talented performers in rock history went from an earnest, passionate, hard-working boy to be crowned the King of Pop, loved by fans around the globe for his brilliant music, his sensational dance moves, and his dazzling videos.

Given Nine will show the ICC World Twenty20 also on March 21, will it be shown on delay in Perth on the main channel to make way for Footy Classified, or will the match be shown live on 9Gem?

Ammended to show Footy Classified at 9pm in Perth

So on March 25, there will be two local telethons (the other of course being Seven Melbourne’s Good Friday Appeal) running on Australian TV! Quite interesting…
