I heard that as well, did it start a few weeks earlier this year? ---

It actually started two weeks later compared to the last few years. This season will only be 26 eps long compared to the usual 29/30. ---

I think it’s way too early to end this season given so much will happen between now and Christmas, especially the US Midterm elections and the Victorian state election. ---

I’d say either the producers wanted to do shorter season or Ten wouldn’t pay more for a longer season. ---

My theory is Working Dog setting the limit, the show has already been running for what 8, 9 years? It can’t last forever so they settled on a drop to 26 eps, still covers half the year, a long season these days. ---
