@TV.Cynic

SBS’s ground-breaking new documentary series, Life on the Outside, puts forward a question that could change someone’s life: would you let a formerly incarcerated person stay in your home?

Presented by actor and activist, Danielle Cormack (Wentworth), the three-part series is inspired by a unique initiative in the United States tackling recidivism - a person’s relapse into criminal behaviour.

Wonder if this is due to the end of the Covid restrictions or whether they had always planned to do this around now?

I actually got use to the temporary set. I dont like the look of this set in studio still, still feels like where plasmas go to die

[JohnsonTV]

Australian reality show Hunted, based on the UK show of the same name, premieres on TVNZ2 next Tuesday (September 27) at 8.30pm.

@TV.Cynic

This fly-on-the-wall series follows nine teams of Fugitives who go on the run from a team of expert Hunters. They must stay on the move and attempt to throw the Hunters off their scent. The Fugitives can run anywhere in Victoria and how they evade capture, is up to them. Can they disappear without a trace?

The Fugitives are released on to the streets of Melbourne’s CBD with an overnight bag and five hundred dollars. They must be cunning and resourceful, some will seek help from friends, family and complete strangers. Where will they hide? Who can they trust?

Get Ready To Run.

When it aired in Australia in July and August this year, it attracted mixed reviews and quite decent ratings. Applications are now open for the second season.

The UK original features running around all places in the British Isles, whereas the Aussie one just set in Melbourne and around the city is that true? New Zealand reality programmes where just Auckland centric or have to be close to Auckland

@Sheldon_Betteridge

The UK original features running around all places in the British Isles, whereas the Aussie one just set in Melbourne and around the city is that true?

As the press release mentioned above, the Aussie version is set in the entire state of Victoria, not just Melbourne. Most activities took place in central Victoria, although one team reached as far as Beechworth in the state’s north east.

Do you remember that team tripped across a Melbourne CBD street
