I’m on leave at the moment and just noticed DOOL and Y&R are back on 9(gem). A quick google search says they finished in 2013 but my memory says it was way before that. DOOL finished first, followed a few years later by Y&R, which was at least ten years ago. Am I correct? Or does anyone remember when they finished on 9?
DOOL finished in 2013
Y&R finished in 2007
And didn’t that end well for them

Thank you. I obviously mixed up the two shows, but I do recall it being at least 10 years since I saw Y&R.
While the storylines are as strange as ever, it’s good to see so many characters from 15-20 years ago are still on these shows.

Of course previously aired on 10 during 2000s, was popular and attracted ratings over 1m metro at its peak, but never quite as popular as SVU. Stars include Jeff Goldblum and Vincent D’Onofrio.

Not an “actual” Bond movie but a nice surpise inclusion
Not really a ‘surprise’ inclusion as Bond film distributor MGM has the distribution rights to this and the other non-Eon film Casino Royale.

9Gem will show season 5 of NZ comedy-drama Westside tomorrow night (June 1) at 10.30pm. It premiered on Three in June last year. A sixth and final season has since been commissioned.
Two more New Zealand shows will air next Sunday night, June 7. Season 6 of The Brokenwood Mysteries will be shown at 8.30pm, followed by the debut of Fresh Eggs at 10.30pm.
Fresh Eggs is a six-part comedy-drama series produced by Warner Bros Television Production for TVNZ. When it aired in NZ last year, the last two episodes were pulled from schedule in mid March in the wake of Christchurch terror attacks, and were not shown until two months later.
According to TV Blackbox, 9Gem will have FTA premieres of BBC documentary Earth from Space (narrated by Chiwetel Ejiofor) and history docu-drama Spy Wars, hosted by Damian Lewis, from A+E Network UK.
Earth from Space debuted on BBC in April 2019, and is currently screening on BBC Earth on Foxtel and Fetch.
Spy Wars premiered in UK in September last year.

So now we get an explosion of British factuals on our screens.

But with no British factuals, the networks will be accused of not having first-run shows on multichannels and just relying on repeats.
