I think news 5:00-6:00 and The Project 6:30-7:30 is a good lineup in terms of news. It gets their main bulletin it’s own timeslot, and means that their primetime show start at the same time as their competitors to put those shows on equal footing in regards to start time. I think the 6:00-6:30 slot is what needs a change. Not so much because Family Feud is bad, but News-\>FF-\>Project isn’t really a cohesive lineup. People are unlikely to continue watching through all 3 shows, which means they’re switching off. Maybe keep FF on One or Eleven for people who really want a game show, but 6:00-6:30 should also be news. People are more likely to contintue watching from the main bulletin, just as it will create a lead up for The Project. It could be staffed entirely by the same staff from the main bulletin, and largely repeat the same stories - but obviously curated down to the most relevant 30mins. It could also be a good place to do something different like an extended report from time to time, creating somewhat of a middle ground between a standard news bulletin and The Project. Pros of this approach include: -Viewers from 5:00 will continue watching news on Ten into the 6:00 hour. -Project views can catch all the news at 6:00 before the project - so they don’t start watching Seven or Nine and then forget about the Project. -If it fails, nothing is lost, since all the news is still being made for and watched at 5:00 (which in turn sets the required ratings lower and gives it more chance to succeed). --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.mediaspy.org/t/network-ten-post-cbs/3436)._
