How rude. 
They could fix all the issues if they moved Neigjhours to 10 BOLD, and let is be a drama channel and 10 PEACH all comedy then. No need for extra Drama or Comedy on the tail ends of the name, just give them slogans to match the branding.

There are heaps of other programs on 10 Peach which are not comedy so moving Neighbours is not the solution. They are showing these other programs because they need to fulfil Australian content quotas.
Thatâs fine but they should still be able to brand most of the channel under a theme. I get theyâre always going to repeat local content on there for ratings and quota points.

The problem is that itâs branded 10 Peach Comedy but it screens Neighbours, Deal or No Deal, Farm to Fork, Entertainment Tonight, Family Feud, Wheel of Fortune, The Drew Barrymore Show, The Late Show woth Stephen Colbert, The Bold and the Beautiful and Home Shopping.
Meanwhile 10 Bold Drama screens Bondi Rescue, Whatâs Up Down Under, Reel Action, iFISH, Everyday Gourmet, Cook with Luke, The Dog Hospital, Escape with ET, Exploring Off the Grid, Pat Callinanâs 4x4 Adventures, All 4 Adventure, NBL Live.

Indeed, so drop the âcomedyâ and âdramaâ from the name. Just brand the channel 10PEACH/10BOLD but you can have a slogan to brand the main channels programming.

10 Bold was quite a good brand IMO I donât see the need for the Drama element & Peach is⌠well, Peach has never been the greatest. But I second what @TVHead says.
Take a look at the ABC, theyâre proof of tags are never a good addition.

Why canât 10 peach go back to being ch 11 and have some dramas and get some entertainment shows of streaming services it canât be that hard to buy new content or use 10play.Who programs these Peach and bold channels itâs mostly the same lineup day after day itâs boring, I know it rates but will it keep working for channel 10 thatâs is going bankrupt.
Change 10 Peach to 10 Pop.

Paramount have Pop already in the US, itâs not a bad name. I still think a drama channel is good idea with 10 BOLD. Maybe 10 SHOWTIME.
But Showtime (the channel) has been sidelined in the US with P+ added as a prefix⌠Iâm not sure how stable the brand would be in a few yearsâ time.
Along the same lines may be Paramount Network, but it didnât work out on Channel 5 in the UK. HmmâŚ
The problem is Ten went to airing blocks of the same comedy shows - who wants to watch more than an hour in a row of any comedy. 11 (now 10Peach) was good with its mix from the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s and early 2010s when it first started
10 could set these channels up with a bloc of comedy from the different decades.
I think even airing new content each night from say 7:30pm til 9:30pm or even say 8:30pm til 10:30pm or 11pm could be good. The latter time I suggested would be to give new content a chance and not be up against realities
What about 10SHOWCASE? This channel could still be primarily drama, but not be criticised for veering away from it. Could have slogans like âWant primetime drama? You got it on 10SHOWCASEâ And "You want A League action? You got it on 10SHOWCASE?
10Peach could become 10Entertainment - a bit of a spin off from 10âs The Entertainment Network in the early to mid 90s
