I am actually really intrigued about the results for a Friday night for possibly the first time ever this week, with Seven’s apparently ‘exclusive’ umpteenth Royal special, albeit another actual wedding this time.
So if it bombs, who knows, Nine might actually win a very rare Friday with this (premiere?)
A gut feeling says that the wedding will do big business though, given earlier this year, Over 55s women and all glued to their sets.

I haven’t seen it mentioned elsewhere, but I have noticed that 9 Darwin are showing their own local fishing programme at 8pm on Thursday night instead of RBT. The show is called “Catching The Chase - Barra Nationals”

Get ready for the promos tomorrow onwards with “Australia’s No. 1 new show” if Manifest kills it for Nine tonight, 50/50 on it either being massive or flop, at least debut episode
The “Australia’s #1 New Drama” Promos have probably already been produced by the Nine Network promotional department. All they’d be doing is waiting to see what the ratings are like before deciding whether or not to air them!

Likely to rate well as 9-1-1 and Playing for Keeps are not big competition and I predict this season of The Bachelorette to be a huge flop.
New food show Anna Gare’s Cab Fare premieres this Saturday (October 16) at 12.30pm on the main channel with repeats on 9Gem at 11.30am Sundays. The show, produced by Essential Media and Entertainment (Gourmet Farmer, Rake, Jack Irish), sees chef and former Junior MasterChef judge Anna Gare gathering stories and recipes from 10 taxi drivers from 13CABS, culminating in the creation of delicious dishes inspired by their backgrounds.
Episode 1:
Anna meets Dhruv, a young driver from Northern India. She learns an amazing tandoor trick that will transform her butter chicken, a recipe for the perfect fluffy fragrant rice. Later, Anna meets Dhruv’s family and gets her hands dirty.
They should try these type of shows in primetime on 9Gem. They are Australian and first run even though they are sponsored programs.

CRUISING WITH CROCODILES
Sunday 14 October at 4.30pm
This week on the premium travel program Helloworld the team treat themselves to traditional Italian
cooking, thrilling-seeking activities and island-hopping in Hong Kong, Sunday at 4.30pm on Nine and
9Now.Ray Martin is exploring our own backyard as he travels to the stunning Kakadu National Park. After
dropping off his bags at the crocodile-shaped Mercure Kakadu Crocodile Hotel, Ray is off to meet
some of the locals on a cruise down the Yellow Water Billabong, keeping an eye out for some of the
10,000 or more crocodiles that take residency here.Bec Hewitt shows us the best bits of New Zealand’s adventure capital, Queenstown, starting off with
a ride on the Skyline Queenstown Gondola which boasts a magnificent 220-degree panorama view of the
city. For the adrenaline junkies, Bec then has a go on the Shotover Jet, a jet boat that takes
passengers on an extreme ride along the Shotover River and through surrounding canyons.Our man in Europe, Vince Sorrenti, is in Florence, home of the Italian Renaissance, where he starts
by experiencing authentic Italy with a home visit to a local family, before attending an exclusive
cooking class with renowned chef Libero Saraceni and sourcing ingredients from the Sant’Ambrogio
Market to make a delicious bruschetta.Meanwhile, Lauren Phillips takes a trip to Hong Kong where she visits Ocean Park Hong Kong, the
popular marine park, oceanarium and amusement playground. Then it’s off to the busy Wan Chai
district for cocktails and delicious food, before checking out the Symphony of Lights cruise on
Victoria Harbour for a light and sound spectacular.
Helloworld encores nationally on 9Life on Wednesday at 12.30pm and Sunday at 11.00am
How did Bec Hewitt’s return to series television rate? Did it win the timeslot do you know?
I doubt many people would be watching TV at 4:30 pm on a Sunday.
I recorded it and watched before dinner…ffwd thru most of it, its Getaway with a different sponsor
Stevie sure has buffed up!

I suspected your age was 2 years old. Now there is undeniable evidence.

I think Young Sheldon is only on Tuesday and Wednesday for next week only, with season two of Family Food Fight to start on the week after.
Family Food Fight starts Monday 29 Oct.
even Ray I suppose still has bills to pay and the occasional SBS gig or Uber commercial isn’t going to be enough

No that would have been an easy win to Bathurst.

Interesting tidbit
9Gem will air the fourth and final season of Unforgettable Mondays from October 29th at 9:45pm. This aired in America in 2015 and 2016 but has never been screened by Nine. They have aired three seasons but never this fourth before
