This would’ve also been the year that Seven regained the broadcasting rights to AFL and the Supercars, with White anchoring the coverage of the latter.
2007 ended up being a very successful year for the network, with a strong slate of international programming (Desperate Housewives, Lost, How I Met Your Mother and Heroes among other shows) as well as the strong performance of City Homicide (which IMO was a good replacement for Blue Heelers) seeing them overtake Nine for the first time in three decades (notwithstanding the year 2000), winning all but two weeks (though the two weeks that Nine did win, were both State of Origin weeks).
