Why would they take off SAS Australia when the new season has only just started?

Bandwidth? Viewership? Diluting the SAS audience watching the current version? Expired rights to back catalogue and not worth the outlay? Take your pick.

I was under the impression the AFL streaming rights wouldnā€™t be happening until 2025?

A Friend of the Family

Stream all nine episodes of the chilling true crime drama, A Friend of the Family, available today only on 7plus.

Based on the harrowing true story of the Broberg family, the gripping limited series follows a jaw dropping, stranger-than-fiction story that has stunned true crime fans for decades. Over several years, the Brobergsā€™ eldest daughter Jan was kidnapped multiple times by a charismatic, obsessed family ā€˜friendā€™. Devoted to their faith, family, and community, the Brobergs were utterly unprepared for the sophisticated tactics their manipulative neighbour used to exploit their vulnerabilities, drive them apart, and turn their daughter against them.

Featuring a stellar ensemble cast, A Friend of the Family stars OscarĀ® Award-winner Anna Paquin (Flack, The Irishman, True Blood), EmmyĀ® Award-nominees Jake Lacy (The White Lotus, Being the Ricardos), Colin Hanks (The Offer, Impeachment: American Crime Story) and Mckenna Grace (Ghostbusters: Afterlife, The Handmaidā€™s Tale). Lio Tipton (The Edge of Sleep, Why Women Kill), Hendrix Yancey (George & Tammy, Unbelievable), Austin Stowell (The Hating Game, Three Women), Patrick Fischler (American Crime Story: Impeachment, The Right Stuff), Bree Elrod (Red Rocket) and Philip Ettinger (First Reformed, Angelyne) also star.

Nick Antosca (The Act, Channel Zero) serves as showrunner, writer and executive producer of the series. Alex Hedlund and Eliza Hittman are executive producers, with Hittman also serving as director for multiple episodes. Jan and Mary Broberg serve as producers.

As a taster or is the whole series to air?

Episode 2 is on Wednesday 8th, so the whole series.

Iā€™m not sure why they would air this on the main channel at such a late time. Why not just put it on 7Bravo at an earlier time slot?

Saw a digital ad for this today in Brisbane on a bus stop, nearly missed that it was for 7+ as the logo was placed on the top RHS and other than the show logo and ā€œstream for freeā€ it didnā€™t really say anything about what it was.

Surprised theyā€™d spend ad $$ on a limited series which premiered a year ago stateside.

Iā€™d be putting up ads instead to say that Big Brother Uncut is back, exclusive to 7+.

One for those who watch the fast channels on 7+ - do any of them have advertising that isnā€™t for a seven show/stream?

I was setting 7+ up for my parents over the weekend and watched a little bit of the fast channels - all the ā€˜adsā€™ seemed to be promos for stuff on the data channels or elsewhere on 7+

Havenā€™t seen any ads other than the 7+ show promos and we watch reasonably regularly with different things.

The Apple Tv app 7plus app looks amazing.

Also saw an ad for A Friend of the Family ā€¦ a Peacick series produced by Nbc Universal.

Would 7 have first pick of Peacock content ?

First pick of a series that aired a year ago in the US? Donā€™t think there was any competition there quite frankly.

Also the show has been discussed a fair bit above and in the programs & schedules thread.
