This could probably win the award for the slowest rollout of a rebrand ever. This updated logo has been used since September!

In 2018, Australia fell in love with the brave Ferrone family, who’ve returned to take on the time-travelling challenge once again. Peter, Carol, Julian, Sienna and Olivia, have already discovered the trials and joys of living through 60 years of Australian history from the 1950s right through to the present day and beyond in the hit series Back in Time For Dinner.

Now, this average family of five, who are all comfortably accustomed to the perks of a very modern world, are back and have to source, cook and eat their way ‘further back in time’ – through a plague, a pandemic, two World Wars and the Great Depression. The Ferrones will encounter many parallels in history that we are currently experiencing in 2020.

I think Nine takes that cake - this flat logo has been used seldom the entire year!

@NaruTVMock

Bit of a shame for the region really. Although I’m sure in the past few years it would’ve only hung on while the NZ On Air funding held on - and next year’s funding, on top of being smaller, is for those shorter reports that’ll go on the likes of the ODT’s site - and definitely not for keeping the TV side of it going.

In a way, it’s a surprise it not only held on in Dunedin for a quarter century, but also managed to spread to Invercargill after Cue TV wound up (39 got turned off there earlier this month). But the times, they are a changing, as I’m sure they are for the rest of Allied Press’ businesses.

Hope there’s major changes and rebranding on air, much needed!

Looks like that TVNZ 2 is abandoning its afternoon children’s programming this holidays for a re-run of reality programming that aired thought the last year. TVNZ 2 aired its afternoon children’s slot for nearly 37 years, it will be the first time since 1986 where no children’s programming been broadcast in the afternoons on 2. Through the 1980s TV One used to be home of main TVNZ children’s programming.

Kids aren’t watching linear TV. It’s a hard one for TVNZ2

[Sheldon_Betteridge]

Your reasoning is why that The Feed and Brain Busters are only moving online to TVNZ+ next year and TVNZ 2 should ditch Children’s programming in the morning’s too and replace with simulcast of TVNZ Breakfast or re runs of shows that first aired on TVNZ 1.

You are probably right there. All the kids I know go straight onto their tablets/game consoles and watch YouTube/Netflix or play Fortnite/■■■■■■.

[Sheldon_Betteridge]

I watch Netflix and Disney+ so that nz tv is so much shit

The Auckland New Year Fireworks aren’t in the schedule for TVNZ tonight. They’ve done them for the last few years (maybe close to a decade)? Maybe they just haven’t blocked out a schedule for them, as sometimes they’ve interrupted programmes for them…or maybe they’re not showing them.

[LiamP]

I’d say they probably aren’t listed, don’t see a reason why they wouldn’t show it without any public statement.
