The final episode of Seinfeld
8 Likes
It only took Ten 88 days to screen the final episode of Seinfeld after it aired on NBC in May 1998. Not bad in that era. Nine sat on the final ep of The Big Bang Theory for 48 days in the age of streaming video and wondered why it didn’t attract bumper ratings.

There was no mention that this was to be the last TV Times as a stand alone mag. From the next week, TV Times and TV Guide amalgamated into TV Week, and TV Week would continue to acknowledge “incorporating TV Times and TV Guide” into the 2000s.

It appears that AMV4 and BCV8 (+ GLV/STV) programs have been swapped over in error.
This magazine does have the look of being something of an after-thought in the launch of The Sunday Herald. It’s monochrome with one-colour highlights, not printed on glossy paper as its The Sunday Sun and The Sunday Age counterparts were. As well as swapping AMV and BCV regional listings, there are other errors, such as a listing for A Country Practice earlier in the week has the description “stars Penny Cook”, even though she had left the series three years earlier. And they put next to that a photo of her that’s literally from her new role in E Street, showing on Channel Ten.
I get that there will be issues with a first edition, as this was, but The Herald had been in publishing for 150 years. And it just looks like this was a token effort to match the TV liftouts being offered in The Sunday Sun and The Sunday Age.

For some comparison, from The Sunday Sun’s TV Extra’s first edition the same week. A bit more polished and not as sloppy as its Sunday Herald neighbour

Ernie Sigley, who’d been hosting Adelaide Tonight for about a decade, now has a national show (I’m guessing from Melbourne) with a cast of regulars including Denise Drysdale, Sue Donovan (now McIntosh), Colin McEwan, Philip Brady, Joy Westmore and Rosemary Margan.

What was the reason for the slightly different programming between the two TAS TV regions? I presume they were easily connected to each other via microwave link. Even different episodes of the same shows!

When Bob Hawke announced Aggreation for Eastern Australia Back In 1987, TAS TV was Broadcasting Statewide Which was Confusing At the Time, As a Result Tas TV North was sold Tricom (Owners Of Victoria’s BCV/GLV 8 Network) and Those Three Stations including TNT became the Southern Cross Network Which Expanded In Southern Tasmania In 1994.
TasTV North now lives on as Seven Tasmania while TasTV South is now WIN Tasmania.
Today’s TV: 8.9.1980
