Pity they can’t acquire a football code that Australians will actually watch.

pity you can’t give 10 benefit of doubt on soccer. It’s a massive committment.

Pity that 10 ViacomCBS seemingly can’t please you with anything either. :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s money down the drain and helps to cement Ten’s position as Australia’s number four network for yet another year.

Their ratings demonstrate I’m not in the minority there.

Two notable absences so far - News & Drama.

The Project is 10’s primetime news vehicle - delivered differently to the other networks.

Exactly. It’s no coincidence that Seven & Nine are the two highest rating FTA networks when they hold the rights to most of the sports Australians like to watch.

Pretty underwhelming upfronts

…aaand we’re done.

Yes nothing in this space. Similar to the other FTA’s. Looks like commercial FTA is dead in Australia and you have to go to SVOD, ABC and SBS for that content.

I would have expected more comedy for post 8.30 slots.

Clearly they’re ashamed at their inability to deliver a comprehensive, relevant news service to the metro markets in which they broadcast. This signals they’ve given up on news, the backbone of any self respecting free to air network, and have no intention of delivering anything but a woefully under resourced token product.

Did Neighbours even get a mention?

I think some of their new formats are great and adds depth to their schedule. However it’s a shame that the depth doesn’t include any new drama or sitcoms which 10 does really well, not to mention not really any mention of the news division apart from The Project.

Good that they included sports along with integration with P+ and their links to VCBS.

Like, not even a mention of Neighbours, the second season of The Secret She Keeps they’ve already commissioned, the second window airing of My Life Is Murder, another season of How To Stay Married… ?

I get the upfronts are generally reserved for advertisers, but they’ve basically ignored (and cut) out an entire division of what makes up FTA.

Very slick presentation overall.

I wonder if we might see Tara Rushton maybe appearing on something like the Project?
