That version was shown in Melbourne last night during The Bachelorette finale.
Why do two black bars change the whole look and feel of a show? It’s like movie quality. I doubt that what all the shows will be broadcast like next year but you never know.

Daniel Monaghan says there are 6 new projects for Pilot Week later this year.
He also said:
“We haven’t announced any shows for Q4 yet. We have commissioned one show we’re not ready to talk about,” he reveals.
“Last year Celebrity MasterChef did a solid job for us so we need to work out how we fill that footprint… and we’ve already commissioned something between Amazing Race and Hunted .”
I wonder what these will be? Hopefully not another MC spin off, although it sounds like it’s not.
In response to this casting notice yesterday from Endemol Shine:

Sounds okay, if they go for more of the Social Experiment vibe than reality it could be good.

UPDATE: the new show will be called The Transformation, to be made by B50 productions.

I agree the reality shows they showed were cheap. It was their scripted pilots that I enjoyed the most - Private Eyes was fantastic for a pilot and I thought it had potential. But it was again 10 lacking the capability of taking risks.
10 was always at their best when they took risks. I can’t remember the last time they did that.

C21 reports 10 has bought stand-up comedy special Rhys Darby: Mystic Time Bird from distributor GRB Studios ahead of MipTV. The special debuted on various streaming platforms in November last year.
Part of me feels they don’t want to invest huge sums of money into developing new scripted dramas or comedies and then have the shows bomb in the ratings and essentially have the investment all be for nothing. Thus why they have a much bigger focus on unscripted content be it their reality tentpoles or their endless run of panel shows.
McGarvey speaking about the loss of Neighbours:
So I think, in terms of investment obviously, from a very practical point of view, we have to continue to make Australian content, and we will do so.
