I never realised that about Shake, wow and agreed RE: the look.
And as mentioned the other day, for the first time ever, with the Sunday night movie, the classifition consumer advice was not in-line with either Seven nor any ACMA Code (it was exactly taken from the Australian Classification Board’s classification for the movie - any ever assigned dating back decades are easily publicly available on their website anyway - denoted by “crude sexual humour” - unless Seven suddenly decided to add that to their lingo). But on the flip side, for other shows, they’ve been using Seven’s standard consumer advice (denoted by the prefixes “some” etc).
@OnAir Regular Bravo programming begins at 10am Monday through Saturday and at 5am on Sunday, running through until around 12.30am (all NZ time).
Outside of those times, TV Shop infomercials are shown - except between 6am-12pm on Anzac Day and all day Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Christmas Day (from 12am until 11.59pm) whereby special Bravo programming is being broadcast.
Promo for Real Housewives of Dubai tonight, was consistent with how the main channel does them… the longer generic promo then the short promo that adds the day and time.
(I think 7 was actually the first network to do these initially, then 9 and 10 followed suit.)
Another workaround to exploit loopholes in the code of practice IIRC. Someone may correct me but AFAIK if a promo doesn’t include a day/time then it isn’t counted towards the non-program limit to which there is a maximum limit applied? So this way, even though it might be a 30 + 5 second promo, only the 5 second part with the day/time is counted, the 30 second segment is exempt.
Given that the networks wrote the code of practice I’m sure it’s no accident that it was structured like that.
Tonight’s episode of Below Deck featured 7News footage (logo on screen). Only half watching it while I do other things, so not sure what the storyline is all about.
