Update

Renée Zellweger, Josh Duhamel and Judy Greer star in riveting true crime limited series: The thing about Pam

The Thing About Pam, based on one of the most perplexing murder cases in modern-day America, premieres Tuesday, April 19, at 8.50pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.

The Thing About Pam is based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria that resulted in her husband Russ’s conviction, although he insisted he didn’t kill her. He was later exonerated. This brutal crime set off a chain of events that would expose a diabolical scheme deeply involving Pam Hupp.

A thorough examination of the scheme was featured on several episodes of Dateline NBC, becoming one of the most popular topics to ever air on the hit franchise. It also became the subject of a popular 2019 podcast, The Thing About Pam , which has been downloaded over 20 million times.

The limited series also features Katy Mixon as Betsy Faria (American Housewife, Mike & Molly, My Name is Earl, Two and a Half Men), Glenn Fleshler as Russ Faria (The Joker, Billions, True Detective, Watchmen, The Twilight Zone), Gideon Adlon as Mariah Day (The Craft: Legacy, The Mustang, Blockers, The Society), Sean Bridgers as Mark Hupp (The Underground Railroad, Deadwood, Get Shorty), Suanne Spoke as Janet (Station 19, Second Chances with Jason Nash, Whiplash) and Mac Brandt as Detective McCarrick (Lovecraft Country, Kingdom, Night Shift, Game Over , Man!, Venom).

The Thing About Pam is executive produced by Renée Zellweger, Carmella Casinelli, Jenny Klein (showrunner), Mary-Margaret Kunze, Scott Winant, Jessika Borsiczky, Liz Cole, Noah Oppenheim, Jason Blum, Chris McCumber, Jeremy Gold and Mary Lisio.

Blumhouse Television, NBC News Studios and Big Picture Co. produce.

Australia’s wild and rugged Northern Territory is home to more than 150,000 crocodiles and one man is on a quest to protect them all. Wild Territory takes you inside the mission as legendary croc wrangler Matt Wright catches and relocates the biggest crocodiles on Earth to keep people and crocs safe.

Also note for Monday 25 April:

Nine will air the traditional NRL ANZAC Day match between the Dragons and Roosters. Coverage starts at 3,00pm (with a 4.00pm kick-off) in Sydney and Brisbane, and assumedly on 9Gem in other cities

2 Likes

Why does the coverage start so early? I remember the days coverage would begin no more than 5-10 minutes before kick off.

It’s the same for the Sunday afternoon NRL Match (3pm start for a 4pm kick-off). To be honest, a lot of the time, it is filler content. Coverage should start at 3.30pm (to name team lists and some “filler”).

I can understand an early start for the ANZAC Day game as they do show the pre-match ANZAC Ceremony held on the ground before the match.

Yes 3pm-6pm Melbourne time 9Gem.

I know why they do it, they can spread the investment over more hours and simultaneously eliminate the spending on other content broadcast for those timeslots, but this kind of thing is contra to the reduced attention spans of viewers these days.

It has always been Foxtel’s domain to provide this kind of comprehensive and repetitive sports content, that is, IMO, their value proposition ala Fox Footy and Fox League as well as the nightly plethora of various shows.

FTA will end up worse than radio if all they continue to do is stretch everything, rather than competing with other services with engaging content.

Why would I sit there watching three hours, if I can cut lots of bits out and join later, that is what I do often with Seven’s AFL. Cut a lot of the waffle that frankly adds nothing.

It seems a strange time of year and program to be airing such a promo now, more suited for pre-Q1 like during the tennis or say NRL Finals / GF or SOO. Or Ninja finale or whatever finale for 2022 ‘second half’.
