No chance of ‘escaping’ coronavirus here.
This could back-fire, especially with the AFL starting on Seven and viewers already having seen a lot of news coverage (the Sunday-Wednesday time slots are also smarter as they have Married lead in).
Wonder if (when) Seven will follow suit?
In Sydney there will probably be more people watching ACA than the AFL.
I think it potentially a smart move. People are used to watching one hour of Nine News with 30 minutes of ACA following. This is in contrast to Seven on Sunday night with a one hour Seven News at 7pm immediately following one hour of Seven News. Seems too much to me.
Let’s be honest
All this extra news with the latest And 9 news at 9, and acá Saturday - it’s not to keep people informed. It’s because 7 and 9 are seeing their ratings go up
Sky should ditch their 7 or 8 or 9 or 10pm panel show for a flagship news
Perhaps Nine, but definitely not Seven - The Latest is rating lower than the programs it has replaced.

With the NRL season now suspended, it will be national programming for now.
Good. It’s finally finishing up 
I know that Nine probably would like to air it for longer, with the good ratings its been getting, but i’m over these types of shows!
On another note - understandably, Nine will be back to a national schedule with the NRL now suspended.
Yes the season skipped a week or two . Not sure if they included the production break in the 10 weeks or decided to end it early due to so many couples leaving. It is def shorter than previous seasons. The ‘10 week experiment’ certainly didn’t go for 10.
Assuming that’s meant to be either 10:40pm or 11:10pm?
Schedule for Friday of this week has been adjusted again.
Next week the Nine Adelaide schedule for morning and afternoon Monday-Friday will be in synch with NSW/VIC.
So from 4:30 am to 3:00 pm each day programs will be 30 minutes earlier than this week’s schedule.
Naturally… Another disaster movie at a time like this
