Hard Quiz, hosted by comedian Tom Gleeson, debuted on TVNZ1 on August 25. The quiz show is a spin-off of Tom’s “Hard Chat” segment on the satirical news show The Weekly with Charlie Pickering, both of which air on the ABC in Australia.
Based on synospis on Freeview online guide, TVNZ’s broadcast started from season 4, which premiered in Australia in February 2019.
Surprised the show hadn’t aired earlier over there.
Australian Survivor: Blood vs Water premieres on TVNZ2 next Monday (September 5) at 9.10pm, taking over from MasterChef Australia. It will also air on Tuesday nights.
Speaking of MasterChef, TVNZ2 will show the contestant reunion tomorrow (Wednesday) at 10.45pm, two hours after the main episode concludes. On Thursday it will be a three hour marathon from 7.30pm, with the final pressure test and semi-final shown back to back. The grand final is Sunday (September 4) at 7pm.
It is intended that the new, next-generation Sky box will be released by the end of the year. The rollout was delayed due to supply chain disruptions and computer chip shortages and according to RNZ, Sky hoped the investment in new boxes would help it stabilise customer numbers and revenue streams over the next few years.
That white box is giving 2017 MacBook Air vibes lol
3-part documentary Life on the Outside premieres on TVNZ2 next Thursday (September 8) at 8.30pm. It’s retitled Danielle Cormack’s Life on the Outside for NZ viewers.
