And even some of his reports are a tad overrated too (at least from a promotional POV). His ones into shady politicians and neo-Nazis were good but those repetitive ones on Crown Casino were fairly average and I reckon a large majority of the population wouldn’t really give a hoot about that and James Packer, only the crazy rich.
Schedule Update:
Saturday 6 November
07:30 pm Bert Newton: Let Me Entertain You Rpt
09:00 pm Movie: Quantum Of Solace (2008)
11:10 pm Movie: No Escape (2015)
I am in Melbourne and the TV guide says a movie is scheduled for Saturday
I’ve just been re-reading the Nine Upfronts 2022 announcements and noticed that Lego Masters Christmas is actually a series. I thought it was a one off special.
This means we have Parental Guidance, Snack Masters and Lego Masters still to come this year and it’s November! It’s great for viewers.
Once upon a time the main big shows would be winding up now for the year but to still have Big Brother VIP, Celebrity MasterChef, The Bachelorette, Parental Guidance, Love Island, Lego Masters and Snack Masters still to come/ still on is such a win for viewers.
Thank you streaming for forcing networks to program all year. Love it!
That schedule has been changed.
Brisbane:
Sunday 7 November at 4pm
WHERE THE HEART IS
The Story of Ronald McDonald House Charities
Shelley Craft narrates the story of Ronald McDonald House Charities in Queensland, stories from families the charity supports and why funding is so important to keep the services going and the families of seriously ill children, together.
I hope in the new year, Nine will have specials of game shows like how the original Millionaire was on in January.
I think that was only cause the tennis was delayed. I’m not sure that will happen this year.
Schedule Update tonight 3 November

Wow! That is funny how yesterday I said I wished Who Wants To Be A Millionaire came back. Today I found Nine are putting the English version of Millionaire on 9Go! in the new year.
Would have thought a Perth presenter would have presented it rather than Overton.
Tracy Vo instantly comes to mind - familiar to viewers of Nine News in the West and East.
Thats who I was thinking, since she presented special coverage this morning in Perth too.
The problem is that the Perth studio will be needed for the 6pm news when the special is on air in Sydney and Melbourne, due to three hour time difference.
There is also Michael Thomson who does present the late news he would be familiar to both east and west coast viewers. But he would probably be getting ready for the 6 o’clock news and due to the timezone it wouldn’t work.
True actually. Completely forgot about the time difference (and I’m in perth! )
Schedule update - Love Island bumped to 9:40pm start - 3 out of 4 nights now next week.

Is it possible to tell if Nine will be screening Skyfall & Spectre the following Saturdays, as I’m trying to catch up on all the Daniel Craig Bonds before seeing No Time To Die?
