Can’t see Tim leaving any time soon, nor would Nova want that since they are still the number one Drive show. If anything, they might be a successor for Fitzy and Wippa with Kate, if they decide to chuck it in.
He probably wouldn’t be too upset about that. I mean, there was a time he wasn’t doing Fridays because it was becoming a bit too much and he didn’t want to burn out. Plus, he was doing a three hour show on his own while others do a two hour show with three presenters.
I wonder if ARN anticipated this happening?
kJO will now have to build an audience from the ground up in Melbourne. This certainly makes the launch and the chances of rating success much harder.
Que Kyle slagging Nova. This could get quite nasty.
No mention of Ben Carney for Perth afternoons is interesting. I guess it’s more likely that 937 will keep 9am-12pm and 12-2pm shifts, don’t see a purpose in them changing just because east coast markets are reshuffling the decks.
I’d be surprised if Ben, Liam and Belle were offered a breakfast slot elsewhere on Nova in the future given they’ve just been axed from Melb breakfast. Their axing indicates management don’t have faith in their show for such a lucrative timeslot.
Plus, all three presenters and very young compared to their rivals. I think this was a small problem. Great talent, but at least they’ll have a national based show in the evening.
