Nine Network - Programs and Schedules

Anybody else like the James Bond films?

Remember when Ch 10 had the MGM/United Artists rights, I think it was the early 2000’s?

They did such a better job than Seven & Nine have since dished up over the years…

THEY DESERVE MAIN CHANNEL TREATMENT!

But no what do we get, B-Grade late night crap on Friday, Saturday & Sundays on all thr networks main channels…

And I find James Bond movies are already half-way through on 9Gem :neutral_face:

Why is it an issue that they’re showing the movies on a multichannel?

They’ve been well advertised.
If people want to watch them, they’ll watch them, regardless of whether they’re on the main or multichannel.

They are good, but I don’t see why the networks can’t make extra airings on sub-channels. I don’t think they used to air as often as a batch before by the networks when we only had the big five.

P.S. Shouldn’t that post have been in the Nine programs/schedule thread?

Yes it should have been, sorry just realised, accidental.

Given there’s 24 films in the official series, clearly somebody does.

Nine has bought the US series BattleBots which is based on Robot Wars.

Battlebots is already 2 seasons old. Why don’t they buy Robot Wars and fast track it? Premieres in 4 days.

I wonder if nine will do a local version? I think they have made some good pick ups for next year. The Gladiator show (cant recall name) and Battlebots are two formats I have always thought Australia should give a go. And they are different to the shows on air at the moment.

Ahh commercial compilations… the last resort in programming before giving up and just showing infomercials.

This stuff is on Youtube ? isn’t it like the LOL stuff…

Probably. Television for people too lazy to search YouTube for “funny commercials” or whatever! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Perhaps Nine can throw in a few of their own promos into the commercial mix. They are always so OTT, worth a good laugh.:smirk:

Yep, who could ever forget such classics as the “Meltdown of the Century” promo for The Hot Plate! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Some posters might have seen this already but TV Tonight had a field day today putting together a list of over exaggerated phrases used by the commercial networks this year

AUSTRALIA’S MOST OUTRAGEOUS WEDDINGS

Monday 1 August at 7.30pm

Lift the veil on the most special day of someone else’s life in Australia’s Most Outrageous Weddings, Monday, August 1, at 7.30pm on Nine.

Every year around 240,000 people get married across Australia. That’s more than 300 weddings every single day. Luxury cars, bouquets of flowers and professional photographers are no longer enough. Now the bride and groom have pyrotechnics, helicopters, and a guest list as long as your arm. The competition for who can have the biggest, best, most outrageous – and expensive – wedding is more intense than ever.

Alicia Loxley will take you inside a world of amazing grandeur and cultural wonder to present some of the greatest wedding spectacles you could hope to see. She looks at an extravagant Hindu-Indian fusion-Catholic wedding which is a week-long binge of celebration costing a cool $300,000. Watch as the bride and groom’s family and friends join together to let loose in a flurry of food, festivities and extraordinary Bollywood dancing.

There is an epic Lebanese wedding with a whopping 550 guests. With eight drummers, electrifying pyrotechnics and a thrilling fire-breather, the dancing begins and doesn’t stop. The night culminates in the bride performing a rock-star stage dive in her $8000 designer wedding gown.

Meanwhile at a country property in New South Wales, a Man from Snowy River-themed wedding is an almighty affair that involves a grand entrance on horseback – and ends with a dislocated shoulder and a night in hospital for grandpa.

Australia’s Most Outrageous Weddings also tags along for the wild hens night before the over-the-top nuptials – and finds one brave woman who allows her bridesmaids to plan her last hoorah as a single girl with hilarious results, including a construction worker’s special dance for the mother of the bride.
