Repeat rights.

Yep, 2008 Nine got the rights to Seinfeld and used to dump it during graveyard slots before it moved to Go!

A 5-minute edition of the Late News. Seinfeld must be there as filler so NRL didn’t air until after midnight.

What would the reason behind the rightsholders not airing it until beyond midnight? Obviously it’s not primetime, main channel fare but would there be advertising $$ reasons for doing so?

I think it’s so the low rating NRL doesn’t affect Nine’s primetime (6pm-12am) share in Perth.

Interesting to see a WIN Television logo next to Nine on the promo for Hidden Wonders Down Under. If I am correct the WIN logo was next to the Nine logo on signage etc. when WIN first bought the station, but the WIN logo became less prominent over time. I remember seeing a video online of STW-9’s building and it had a very ugly “WIN-9 Television” logo with the WIN and 9 inside mappy.

I mean not really, as WIN was broadcasting the same episode and they had the same common owner.

WIN and Nine Perth and Adelaide were O&O’ed by WIN from 2007-2013. Part of Bruce Gordon’s plan to purchase the entire East Coast Nine Network which ultimately failed and he eventually sold STW and NWS to Nine Entertainment in 2013.

in TV Week, Nine also used to include NBN and WIN logos in ads for Nine programs.

This was the end of the line for TEN News on WIN as a dual affiliate. A few days later, Nine News would be shown on WIN.

As a kid I always thought Neighbours Again was a different show to what it actually was, a repeat of an old Neighbours episode. Mind you I was at an age where Sesame Street (if I wasn’t at Kindy) was more appropriate.

Didn’t realize that Channel 7 had Masterchef Goes Large. :astonished:
During midday, Seven replayed the Closing Ceremony of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. After the Olympics ended, normal programming resumed for Seven.

And going further back, the ABC used to screen it.

Pretty sure SBS was analogue channel 28 in Canberra?

NCAA Football seems like a really random thing for the ABC to carry.
