Nine Network - Programs and Schedules

Really!?!? :roll_eyes:
Repeated on the main channel just one hour after it finished!
What is the world coming to…

As far as I know, Nine have the rights to Season 10, why not start S10 repeats in that timeslot if they have to show a repeat.

This Tuesday as well.

9Go! is currently rerunning S10 eps on Wednesday nights (as well as next Sunday night at least) at 7:30-8:30pm & again at around 10:30-11:30pm that same evening.

1 hour and 50 minutes (let alone if it goes longer than that) is far too long for any reality program to go for…

Perth will have 9 Lends a Hand at 7:30pm and RBT at 8PM.

A few things…

  1. Given up on Vet on the Hill at 7:30pm Fridays (smashed every week)? Or just a time issue due to Harry Potter?

  2. Good to see the Harry Potter marathon back. Whilst the earlier movies may not rate like they used to, the movies will surely be bigger than what James Bond did lately?

  3. Which gets me onto what happened to Casino Royale (2006), Quantum of Solace (2008) & Skyfall (2012)? Must’ve aired recently?

  4. FFF will probably rate poorly or at best ordinary, so a long time slot ain’t going to help.

  5. That looks like a very short Block finale (MasterChef finales go for 2.5hrs).

The Advertiser reports the TV remake of McLeod’s Daughters is dead. Creator Posie Graeme-Evans has revealed talks with Channel 9 and a “third party” have broken down due to “creative differences”. However she leaves the door open for a “crowdfunded sequel” without Nine, which will need to raise at least $3 million.

McLeod’s Daughters reboot is officially dead, confirms show’s creator

our negotiations with the Nine Network in Australia and a third party, introduced to us by Nine - and for whom the Sequel mini-series would have been made, as it turned out - have now concluded because we’ve pulled out."

Posie explained that creative differences led to the breakdown.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but I just saw a promo for “Wednesday night movie premieres”. Among them was Fast and Furious 7.
Has Nine got the rights for the franchise now?

Looks like Ten is not the only network short on new content at this time of the year.
Nine’s Wednesday night movie premieres start next week (November 1) with the latest James Bond flick Spectre (except in Perth).
Even though Fast and Furious franchise is released by Universal Pictures, and Nine has the rights to several programs and movies distributed by NBCUniversal, I don’t think Nine has the rights to the first six films yet, but could get them eventually when Seven’s rights to show them expire.

Don’t expect it to rate like “Skyfall” (2012) premiere.

Spectre received mixed reviews by many, or more so many compared it to Skyfall with negativity.

I thought it was really good, but agreed, Skyfall was top class.

Spectre was to Skyfall what Quantum of Solace was to Casino Royale

Disappointing

So why did they show a repeat of the Fitzy & Wippa series when they have new episodes of the Erin Molan & Dave Thornton series still to show?

Interesting programming choice - airing a 9Honey episode of ‘Sticky Situations’ presumably to make an break into programming easier for the Breaking News about to come regarding the Dual Citizenship saga.

Nine will show the first season of Stan original series Wolf Creek at 9pm Thursdays from November 2. Given Nine owns half of Stan it can do anything.

Anything? :wink::thinking:

As in showing Stan’s original productions if Nine wants to.

I think it is gonna rate badly, most people who wanted to have seen it will have done so already I think.

Looking at the broadcast EPG, somehow, Nine already know that tomorrow’s block final with run 14 minutes overtime with 60 Minutes scheduled for 8:44pm. :thinking:

Because the auctions were today. They’ve probably already edited the episode together this afternoon.
