I don’t like the 7pm launch into reality programming. if I recall correctly up until about 10 years ago Nine metro stations did this and alternated with Two and a half men and Frasier. Nine then extended the 6pm news to 1 hour with ACA moving to 7pm.
I can understand your intentions here but if Home and Away was every to move (an unforgivable move for the devoted fans), I think a current affairs style program (such as Today Tonight) or a game show will be the show to replace it … sad but true

Great mock for 2024. Great minds think alike, because i was going to make a mock for 10 next year, and put new airings of cooking shows in the 11am-12pm hour too. They’re pretty much “paid advertising” anyway (aka “paid sponsorship” which pays for the show itself) , just like the infomercials on Studio 10. But i couldn’t decide what repeats to put prior to 10 am, so i ditched my plan to post it. lol.
Agreed, they need to offer something in the mornings, even if it’s those cooking shows, and arguably they are better suited to those timeslots. I could also see them putting on an infomercial at 8am for half an hour as well.

I would still keep the 5pm news as a lead in and a promotional bulletin for the 6pm news. Similar to Seven and Nines Afternoon News. Also, it still gives them the opportunity to revert back to 5pm if 6pm fails.
ATV10 Melbourne trial line up for 2024.

Big network wide relaunch. Spend all 2024 getting it ready with a major 6 month promotional campaign from June 2024.
The only way the can become competitive is with major change and poaching familiar faces from Seven and Nine.

A big major change with large investment and a mixture a familiar faces from across all three networks.
I know some folks may disagree, but perhaps Ten could have screened The Sunday Project at 6, Christmas with Australian Women’s Weekly at 7 and The Bachelor at 8. Then encore Christmas with Australian Women’s Weekly 7:30 Friday and at Saturday afternoon (as scheduled)
Christmas with Australian Women’s Weekly would line up with end of Seven and Nine News. I seriously doubt Ten would mind if viewers stayed tuned into Ten for the night
