I don’t think that this proves that. We know there are issues with local productions with the current restrictions. What this proves is 10 has a slate of local content they can easily commission to get to air. Junior Masterchef, Family Feud and likely Shark Tank have been commission quickly and don’t have a long production time. 10 are really luck to have these on their shelves and is better than showing repeats of Ambulance.

Or overseas dramas that have already been shown on Netflix.

Would be nice to see this show return.
Without Survivor and (very likely) Amazing Race 10 are very lucky to have a few heritage brands (Junior Masterchef, Family Feud) which are popular enough to be re-commissioned (and maybe even return as permanent series) unlike some networks which will most likely struggle with content later in the year due to restrictions (Seven in particular looks vulnerable as AGT and Holey Moley have both suspended productions). Not only do these shows fill the blanks, but will also be more likely to rate well due to the fact these are popular shows in its prime and there are more people watching TV nowadays which will give them a better chance at attracting an audience.

Look this isn’t an ideal show by at 7:30 Thursday will hold the fort for a while. Better than repeats or US shows that no one watches. At least 10 are trying to have content for the end of the year considering they can’t produce their other reality franchises.

Exactly. People should quit whining. It’s better than Jamie Oliver

And it proves that they’re at least trying to commission content for the end of the year despite pandemic restrictions. In previous years (before last year) they just gave up at the end and had fillers/duds to fill the end of the year.
Well what do you think they should air then? It’s better than some imported US drama that doesn’t even rate these days.

You are aware that we’re in the middle of a pandemic?
All networks are trying to find ways of producing new content.

Whats wrong with hand sanitiser and sanitise?

I think most programs are defaulted to US English right, so they will autocorrect to Z instead of S.

Jbar meant that sanitise is spelt with an s rather than a z in Australia.

New set? Clearly would have added audience noise in post will see how well that’s been done

Quite surprised they have chosen to give it a new set. The previous was one only like 6 months old.
(And this is only a 10 episode special. Perhaps if it rates well they might bring it back in primetime?)
