9Now Seinfeld 24/7 FAST channel promo:

https://twitter.com/9Now/status/1729018354273329187?s=19

Nine promoting it as “the biggest show of all time” and saying “for the first time” in regards to streaming for free (I think they mean 10 Play didn’t have endless episodes at a given time - only a handful that were recently on broadcast for a limited time before they’d disappear). It’ll be interesting to see if this situation also occurs for vod on 9Now. And no doubt they’ll finish up on 10 at some stage shortly, maybe by Dec 31 or survey start next year. Interestingly, they’re still performing on Peach but not on 9Go! With more promotion, including during the summer of tennis and once 10 lose them, should see a big uptick for 9Go! in total people / share, as well as maybe 9Now, but key demos shouldn’t change much, given the channel already skews very young and still does well in 16-39s.

GET YOUR LOL’S 24/7 ON DEDICATED CHANNEL ONLY ON 9NOW

Fans of Seinfeld can rejoice and relive their favourite show with a dedicated 24/7 channel streaming back-to-back episodes of the iconic sitcom only on 9Now.

Arm yourself with some pretzels (which will probably make you thirsty), give yourself permission to have soup and enjoy non-stop laughs with the legendary Jerry, Elaine, Kramer, George Costanza and Newman.

Seinfeld, the show about nothing, aired from 1989 - 1998 making television history as one of the world’s most successful sitcoms ever produced.

Currently streaming Seasons 1-3, with Season 4 available from today (Friday, December 1), and the remaining Seasons 5-9 to be dropping onto the platform over the next three months.

The channel will house all nine seasons, a total of 180 episodes, as well as feature themed programming showcasing the best episodes of the series.

Launching as the 9Network’s first brand-led dedicated streaming channel for 9Now, delivering exclusive and premium content to Australians for free.

Hamish Turner, Director of 9Now and Programming: “Seinfeld is one of the most iconic television shows of all time, a fitting choice to launch 9Now’s first dedicated streaming channel.”

In Nine’s latest pitch to advertisers:

Personalisation, playback, FAST TV boom

Two closely linked TV themes for 2024 are personalisation and viewer experience. 9Now’s new live home page is just the start, says Geoff Dyer. “There are a lot of things on the roadmap that haven’t been mentioned yet, but it all boils down to what do you want 9Now to be for you?”

Core to the plan is “how do we create 9Now and have personalisation to bring content that’s relevant to you on top [of the live home page]?” adds Dyer. In a world almost paralysed by choice, people “want that to be simplified for them a little bit”.

Which is where free ad-supported TV – or FAST – comes into play. That is, curated channels based on themes and genres that effectively work like a linear channel: all the shows that appeal to fans and specific audiences in one place. Pedestrian Television was the first of the network’s FAST channels out of the blocks, but Nine has a lot more coming, says Dyer.

“There’ll be fast channels for everyone. Whether you’re a reality junkie, a crime buff, maybe you want to watch season after season of Love Island , we will create these premium curated channels where everyone feels like there’s something for them on 9Now, where they don’t have to make ten choices every night as to what they are watching.”

I just tried on the iOS app and appears the function has gone missing? Strange.

It disappeared over Christmas. I tried playing back the Christmas bully later that night.

What? Why would they introduce a new feature and then get rid of it after only a few months?

NBC trailer for La Brae Season 3 has been released. This season was filmed in Queensland. Season 2 is on 9Now.

It looks odd that only two cities have them so far. Makes it look really out of line.
