I know it’s non-ratings week due to the Easter Break (for the ratings), but what a weak schedule.
Sunday night, a repeat of This is Your Life: Rebecca Gibney is airing. As great as the show is, Sunday nights should always be new products. It’s followed by Code 1, Is this the third timeslot change for the show?
Double episodes of filler factual show Highway Patrol is airing on Monday, and triple episodes of Home and Away is airing on Wednesday. Seven are still persisting with The Front Bar in Brisbane, despite its very low ratings there.
At least a movie premiere of Dream Horse is airing on Friday night in most cities. That’s one positive there.
Just woeful from Seven particularly when Nine and 10 are going all guns blazing with non-ratings schedules.

This kind of scheduling is exactly what is creating a stink around the 7 brand- the same stink 10 created around their brand a decade ago. They’ll continue to keep eyeballs away and deliver flop after flop if this is all they can dish up.

It’s the fact that “non-ratings” is still a thing in 2023 that I find laughable. This isn’t 1999, suddenly they have very serious industry-killing competition and really need to be programming all year round. Netflix and YouTube don’t go on holiday for months on end.

Why do they even call it non ratings as non mean no ? But ratings are still being collected…
Non-ratings is a very loose term that isn’t often used much any more. I always refer to survey period and non-survey or unofficial ratings. OzTAM does not recognise any non-ratings period at all and surveys all year. Over the last 10 years of so, regular programming has been encroaching into these period that used to be totally premium-content free. For several years “regular” programming has tended to start up on Easter Monday one week early. This year 10 isn’t taking a break at all. It is pretty poor schedule from Seven never the less.

The problem with Seven is that they’re still programming as if they’re No.1 and untouchable like 2007-2016. Someone should tell them to get real or get stuffed.

Maternal’s UK audience fell from 2.4 million for the first episode to 1.31 million for the season finale. It also struggled in ratings when it was shown on Seven in February.
Best programming news of the year.

Happy April Fools… but a shame it’s not for real.

Hilarious April Fools joke there.
The only two shows that might actually happen is Dr Chris hosting Guinea Pigs That Make You LOL and the Russell Gilbert Roast Chooks show. Those are more realistic to Seven. Lol.
Imagine seeing Dr Harry Cooper and Dr Chris Brown actually compete in Dancing With The Vets. Quality TV there
Compared to last year’s bad taste of the Neighbours article, this is a much better showing. Hat tip to David.
