Delete if not allowed, but have nabbed this ratings chart off The Spinoff website to give us a rare insight into NZ TV ratings in 2023.
I will happily cringe on behalf of the nation that a repeat of The Chase Bloopers commanded an audience of 404,500 viewers. Long live the oldies who prop up TVNZ1.
The Australian version of Would I Lie to You? starts tonight on TVNZ2 at 9pm, right after The Voice Australia. Filmed in Melbourne, the first season was hosted by Chrissie Swan with Chris Taylor and Frank Woodley as team captains.
Here is the line-up for the first episode.
The show was recently renewed for a second season by Network 10 at its 2023 upfronts, with Charlie Pickering replacing Chris Taylor as team captain. Chrissie Swan returns as host and Frank Woodley returns as team captain.
I think that TVNZ 2 will do a NZ version of The Voice, Hunted NZ and local Drama series The Bishop and TVNZ 1 will go more public service like and new series of One Lane Bridge and Warner Bros. Discovery NZ will revive Inside NZ and new local series Dry Creek
I think TV3 will gotta be a NZ version of Dancing on Ice NZ, My Kitchen Rules NZ, The Chase NZ, The Cheap Seats NZ and NZ’s version drama show NCIS: Auckland and Law & Order: New Zealand.
As for the other reality shows you mentioned, MKR NZ was already done and burned off by TVNZ a few years ago and it’s unlikely Survivor will be brought back now that CTI has a good foothold.
Dancing on Ice and The Cheap Seats do have some possibility of coming here, depending on if Discovery find it a good investment to bring it over.
