Found this while scrolling Reddit. The NZ TV Schedule from the 12th of September 2001. I don’t think many of these programs on TV1 and TV3 actually aired.

@Dani-Chan Due to TV3’s (now Three) live coverage of the 9/11 attacks, almost all of the network’s scheduled programmes were transferred to TV4.

Wow, what a throwback and to see Triangle TV. So much has changed since that year.

Kinda neat to see some early morning Python on TV3, wonder how many times they ran through those episodes

Memory unlocked. Teletrader on TV4 was just on screen classifieds with music. I was in New Zealand on Anzac Day in 2001 and TV4 had the classic Phillips PM5544 test pattern that morning with a simulcast of radio station Channel Z.
