It means next Thursday’s episode (episode 4) won’t air in NZ until the following Monday.
Exactly what I was gonna say…

Because it flopped on it’s 7.30 slot on Three in 2020 because It cannot competed with buzzing programmes going on at TVNZ channels that time so it had reduced screening episodes that bumped back 9.30 for last weeks before the broadcaster dropped it completely leading TVNZ to pick up the series last year

I am thinking that Prime premium drama strategy is doomed to fail as free-to-air runs of And Just Like That … and Your Honor continued to struggle, with 25-54 averages of only 0.1%. that will be a final straw for the network as Eden programmes even outrates them as Prime is now declared irrelevant

Good. Reality shows in the afternoon just do not work. Remember when Three stripped Love Island at 5pm a few years back? Bring back the reruns I say.
It would be better played at night or sunday afternoons
Airing it on TVNZ 2 in the afternoon is even worse that Three screening it in Primetime 2 years ago

Would they actually deliver proper public service programmes as they should move away from TVNZ channels based on ageism focuses and return to 50/50 programme stance across 1 or 2

Not surprised, but does go to show how uneven the demographic seems to be already with Duke as it is. TVNZ really stuffed up with this one, given even three dropped it from Prime time viewing, different time I know, but still it showed the lack of interest for this format with viewers here in NZ
