Caps from Nine Adelaide (28 August 2008)
Geez, I almost forgot how desperate Nine were for ratings during the 2nd half of 2008 - replaying Australia’s Naughtiest Home Videos AND having Pamela Anderson as a guest star on The NRL Footy Show on the same night!
The best watermark Nine has ever used IMO.
Loved that watermark even though it lasted only 12 months
Personally, I think Nine’s best ever watermark was their first one in the Early 2000s. Similar deal with most other networks.
I’m a bit of a fan of this package. I used to have a free DVD of full episodes that came with a TV Week issue from that year (image below), and when I was young I was unaware of the short-lived Choose Nine package.
The one pre-2006 was a bit too fuzzy for my liking, although absolutely fine for its time considering where technology was up to at the time. Technology has improved over time enabling better quality watermarks.

graphics don’t look that hideous
…these are some old caps, so the PRGs etc are missing, but I’ll find them soon.
I do like Nine’s watermark and the 2008 look. A shame it only lasted 12 months before the discs became dots until September 2009.

Perth had a dot-less 9 from 2008 to 2010 as STW was O&O’ed by WIN Corp which at that time was a Nine Network affiliate
This ident really encapsulates the ridiculousness of WIN’s dot-less Nine.
