It would not have fired with mainstream audiences
It was on late so mainstream audiences shouldn’t matter so much. Not sure if it improved but from the few episodes I watched at the start the show wasn’t that good
The Zone was the best video game show. They should’ve just brought that back.
“Sydney X Games” sponsoring the Jason Bourne movies marathon over the next month on Sundays.
Latest promo aired on 7mate, also with the channels usual over-the-top V/O:
“Every Sun… {pause} Sun-Damon”
“…4 movies with Matt Damon, Matt Damon, Matt Damon and, uh, this guy {referring to Jeremy Renner}”

Deadly Down Under
Coming to 7mate in September
Pauly Fenech discovered Australia’s #1 Bogan. Now he’s setting his sights on finding Australia’s deadliest creatures.
Creator of Bogan Hunters, 7mate’s highest rated program ever, Pauly continues his exploration of Australian culture and alongside his trusty hunting sausage dog Fonz, will travel across Australia in search of the deadly of the deadliest beasts in DEADLY DOWN UNDER.
Pauly, together with presenters Jacquie Rodriquez and Elle Cooper, will dive with great white sharks, handle venomous snakes and wrestle crocodiles; they’ll meet with the survivors of deadly attacks; and they’ll trawl the history books for the deadliest events on record. Viewers will find out what happens when these creatures attack, and how they kill.
And perhaps the deadliest creature of all is Mother Nature. How do you spot and prevent Australia’s biggest ocean killer – the rip?
DEADLY DOWN UNDER includes an impressive spread of fair dinkum’ Aussie characters; whether they are down at a rowdy tent boxing event, a heated jelly wrestling competition or sinking a few at the local pub.
Pauly says he is excited to showcase the most dangerous and majestic features of Australia,
“This is Steve Irwin meets Pauly Fenech with a touch of Bear Grylls and Instagram models all thrown in the mix. Deadly Down Under blends the most dangerous animals on the planet, Australia’s greatest mysteries and the beauty and danger of Down Under’s natural environment.”
“I think I must be Australia’s only croc-wrestling, snake-catching, Harley-riding comedian/explorer. What a great job!”
DEADLY DOWN UNDER has wrapped filming and will be airing on 7mate in September.

Great to see a channel dishing up so much first run, Aussie content. Might help explain the channel’s impressive top position this year.

EDIT
New season of Ink Master premieres on Thursday 9 August at 8:30pm with a double episode.
Possibly the longest promoted show this year? Holy shit, they’ve been airing those promos since about March or April! If it doesn’t rate very well for 7mate EPIC fail

Aussie Salvage Squad
From Tuesday 7 August at 8:30PM
Produced by Fredbird Entertainment, Aussie Salvage Squad explores the world of marine salvage and rescue.
Filmed in the Whitsundays it focuses on the high-stakes salvage work carried out by Luke Purdy and his team of marine rescue experts. Triggered by deadly storms, cyclones and natural disasters, every salvage job comes with natural adversaries, time-critical decisions and real-time jeopardy.
Craig Graham, Fredbird Executive Producer said, “It’s a big, noisy show full of larger than life characters. Aussie Salvage Squad reveals the real-life behind-the-scenes work that goes on to keep our coastlines safe from toxic spills, environmental hazards and marine wreckage. It’s heroic work and not without its risks. Big trucks, big boats, big machinery, a superb cast, and lots of sweat and mud – 7mate’s audience is going to love it.”
Predator movie marathon promo Mondays on 7mate tonight (aired during Front Bar).
“Every movie”. Some will be network premieres, assuming Seven have Alien vs Predator Requiem and Predators.
And hazard a guess Alien movie marathon will be next.
Seven have conceded new Ink Master Revenge (which was promoted for months) has tanked in the ratings (2% shares last couple of Thursdays), bumped to late night.
Replaced with “The Fast and the Furious” (2011) movie, possibly last time too before Nine get it. “National Treasure” movies did 5% shares Thursdays preceeding that, speaking of which, are repeated on 7flix this weekend.
Good to see a network setting a high bar for a multi-channel which is having a record year, unlike Ten who seemingly couldn’t give a stuff about Eleven.
