No, Nine never tag-line these. Only Seven do it “first time on 7” or “first time on 7mate”. The exact above graphic is used when it’s a FTA premiere on 9Go!
It seems to be they’ve got it wrong like this before when the movie hasn’t aired in a long time (i.e.) case in point. It’s laziness by staff not checking OzTam history or historical programming guides for the title, just assuming it’s a FTA premiere.
As Seven (for example) are always correct with their promos when using “premiere” or “first time” or none (if a repeat).
This backs-up my comment above. 9Go! are airing Hanna tonight, but they didn’t put “premiere” on the promo, as they must know it’s aired on another FTA network before:
But it’s a recent film. Last aired on Boxing Day night on 7flix in 2017. Premiered on Seven in 2013. Again from NBC-U.
Whereas 40 Days & 40 Nights (as discussed) also has its first Nine run, but it’s over 15 years old and Nine clearly didn’t research very hard and came to the lousy conclusion it was a FTA premiere. Which gets them into the aforementioned strife.
It was a box office success and received mixed reviews.
Seven had the rights to “Grease” for as long as I can remember, from Paramount (though Nine will no doubt have SVOD rights through their new Stan deal). 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s. (Nine and/or 10 may have got rights once or twice in-between in some markets?)
Seven last aired it after the epic GWS vs Western Bulldogs AFL Prelim in 2016 (itsself the second highest rating non-Grand Final game in history).
Nine then aired it on the Aus Open Women’s Final night the next summer (January 2017). Nine last aired it on 9Gem in July last year. Must’ve only been licenced limited runs.
I hope you’re not referring to me I realise you’ve never liked me since day dot, I’ve never done anything to you, but you’re constantly antagonising me / intentionally having digs at me.
But you’ll be pleased to know I’ve never contacted the ACMA (lol wtf) and Knoxy at TVT has posted multiple articles on this off his own volition, clearly others have noticed and have interest, lots commented on there today…

First time in more than 15 years the movie airs on Nine, also the first time Nine has the entire Star Wars collection thanks to its deal with Disney.
I believe Nine will show one Star Wars movie each Saturday, culminating with Episode VIII: The Last Jedi on November 23. The Last Jedi will be FTA premiere, while Episode VII will be Nine’s first screening. Not sure about the other five titles though - have they aired on Nine before?
Interestingly, they used to be licensed by 20C Fox (10 last aired them around 2011/2012 under that output).
After Disney acquired Lucasfilm (who hold rights to all but the original) licencing switched to them, returning rights to Seven in 2015 (but must’ve been only one or two runs).
