08:30 PM Movie: Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

What’s even stranger is how Nine have the rights to every Star Wars movie, including the most recent movie The Last Jedi, but not to The Force Awakens.

It’s because Seven were licenced the movie in 2017 and have a certain amount of runs (as with any movie), when they were still at the end of their old Disney output.

The other Star Wars were aired on Seven back in 2015 (when The Force Awakens was in cinemas) and were together under a separate licencing paclage, last aired in 2017 when they premiered The Force Awakens.

Nine now picked up those rights under their Disney deal this year, as well as FTA premiere of Rogue One.

NB/ Nine will have to wait until Seven’s runs of The Force Awakens have lapsed before they can be licenced. Whether Nine will have the rights in the future or even continue with a Disney content supply agreement remains to be seen.

Factual series The Force narrated by Simon Reeve, has been axed after 14 years.

The Force, like many Factual programs across the board, rated well a decade ago. Now days, they are used as fillers on our main channels, and are repeated regularly on the multi-channels (sometimes rating well on these channels).

Luckily Seven still has two other police factuals, Highway Patrol and Motorbike Cops.

Border and The Force performed best in their original Tuesday timeslot, where it often rated over 2m. Here’s one example.

I wonder how many episodes of Zumbo will air the following week if the day/night test against Pakistan finishes early?
Also, Beyond the Boundary is the 2-part special commissioned by Seven on Australia women’s team’s successful quest to win the women’s Ashes in England earlier this year.

Why is it Seven never release their movie titles until Monday afternoon (i.e.) most likely guess for those Sunday and Tuesday “TBAs” and the same happens for the Friday night and Saturday 7pm movie every week?

Yet Nine and 10 seem to have no problem releasing theirs on Sunday morning.

Wednesday - HAA Season Final
Thursday - BHAG Season final
Two shows wrapping up before the end of 2019 ratings season.
The day/night test will draw much substantial prime time shares over the East Coast. This year, Channel 7 was hit hard by Nine in the ratings season. But I think that next week, Seven will have an easy win over Nine.

Only came out early last year, usually FTA premieres are still at least 2+ years wait. This one’s early, which is good to see and as it should be.

The 2019 NSW Schools Spectacular will be held at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena this Friday and Saturday (November 23-24), headlined by Leo Abisaab who competed on The Voice last year. Once again Seven has the broadcast rights and will air a highlights show next month, most likely December 7. (December 14 is day 3 of the day/night cricket test between Australia and New Zealand from Perth, while December 21 is the annual Carols in the Domain from Sydney)

Unsure if this is the right place to say this but…

Seeing how Seven’s 2nd half just collapses into nothingness every year, I reckon Seven might as well try to air marathons of classic Seven dramas (remasterd in HD) in the 7.30 slots (All Saints, Blue Heelers, Rafters, Always Greener, City Homicide, A Country Practice etc) until they can sort their programming out and see what the audience really wants, be it reality or drama.

I think with some big promotion as well as good scheduling (+nostalgia), some of these shows could do 800k+ which is miles ahead of what they achieved this year in the 2nd half.

Of course, I’d like to hear other members’ thoughts about this (and if inappropriate here, in the relevant topic) to reinvigorate Seven’s tired schedule.
