Speaking of which, the upcoming 4th and final season of Married at First Sight NZ will have one Kiwi and one Australian expert.

I still havenât heard a peep about how CRC Motorsport will proceed - I presume theyâll ditch the Studio-based content and just show each race as-is?

Not sure - I guess they could film it off site?
Iâm surprised itâs still going at any rate.

Shaun did it from his garage during COVID, so I guess they could revert to that⌠but yeah, itâs their only talent-fronted sports programme⌠must be a lonely outpost!

âsitting very close to where Iâm sitting right now. So I have a lot of love and I think spiritually, this is my home.â
Not going to be too much left in the home by 2025. I canât imagine Glenâs role was going to receive the salary or importance it currently has once the cuts are all made so I can see why he would depart.
InterestingâŚ, the words âcliffâ and âglassâ spring to mind. And not necessarily in that order.

Has The Traitors already filmed a NZ second season or has that been ditched ahead of filming?

More Fast Channels coming to ThreeNow, with CNN and a Graham Norton channel arriving soon. Does anyone know if TVNZ+ will add any? They seem so slow in launching any.

Havenât heard anything but if the calibre of Threeâs FAST offerings are anything to go by I donât think weâre missing much.
A Graham Norton Show 24-7 channel? Is it 2012?

Yeah true, they havenât been the most riveting of FAST channels.

I certainly wouldnât be against the ideaâŚnot my cup of tea (I would rather curate my viewing) but you could certainly try things. Seven Sharp 24/7 (I was going to suggest Sunday butâŚyâknow) or try TVNZ Heartland again digitally etc.

I was thinking more around the old TVNZ Heartland idea and delving into TVNZâs archives, if they can get the rights clearance. Thereâs a few possibilities they could explore to carve out a FAST strategy that differs from WBDâs offerings.

I love the idea of a Graham Norton Fast channel, im liking the outrageous fortune/westside channel as well! Im hoping they have more fast channels coming, I hope to see a missing pieces/David Lomas channel personally.

Absolutely agree with you about the David Lomas channel, I canât get enough of his series.

I guess something like Graham Norton could work well as itâs not something people are going to boxset or go searching out individual episodes but if you stumble across it and there are a couple of interesting guests you might stick with it.
Ultimately though no amount of FAST channels and imported content on ThreeNOW is going to make up for removing all local content from Three. Indeed if they really want to push their streaming service surely local content is a key tool to drive people to that too.
Ultimately weâre seeing now what happens to a countries TV industry when the industry is pretty much void of regulation. I find it odd that for a country which has strict regulations about ads on Sundays/Easter Sunday/Christmas Day that there seems to be so little around protecting content. It isnât just about viewing choices but protecting jobs and ensuring there is a creative industry within the country which ultimately would contribute to the countries tax coffers rather than take from them.

Looks like that TVNZ 1 is replacing Sunday with reruns of NZ documentaries
