I always think of 800 Words not as an Aussie drama as it it filmed in NZ and has NZ and Aussie actors.It’s a NZ/ Australian co production isn’t it ? Doesn’t seem Australian as say Winners and Losers was.
So the AFL is the reason for so many Home and Away episodes? Or to finish before December?
Can’t they just air as normal and do the weeks with a few more episodes towards the end of the year like they seem to have been doing the past 2 years ?
It may be a co-production but it’s made by Seven and certainly counts as an Aussie show for content and drama points.
It went late this year too but could probably keep going until just before Christmas, if they really wanted to. We’ll have to see how it does in the ratings this year anyway because it may struggle to stay on the main channel.
I wonder why Ch 7 don’t produce MKR to air on Thursdays?
It’s been a huge success for MasterChef.
I imagine the AFL, Home and Away & Better Homes and Gardens scheduling all has something to do with it.

I think that is exactly what it has to do with it. They did have a few Thursday episodes last year. But obviously they would rather drag it out for longer and have 13 straight wins rather than 10.
Because nobody watches TV on a Thursday night. You don’t want viewers to miss an episode (they may not return) or drag down the average ratings of your biggest show.
It works for Masterchef because Ten are happy with anything that cracks 300k in prime time.
I’ll inform the networks at once!
Seven are running promos that the AFLW will be live in HD nationally. Guess this means 7mate will be back to HD for Sydney/Bris/Perth after the tennis
Rubbish (and you know it, I hope you were joking)!
Pretty sure a Thursday ep of MC had over 1.1m last year 
Nooooo leave 7 as hd
Doesn’t NZ content get counted towards the Aus content quota anyway? (Aus-NZ trade deal if I remember.)
It had been point for point but I believe it was changed after it was recently reviewed.
I wonder if in NZ , Aussie content counts as local .
Just what every MediaSpy member has been waiting for 
Ch 7 are airing the movie “Fifty Shades of Grey” next Wednesday at 9pm (network premiere).
I look forward to your analysis of how the version that goes to air complies with the classification guidelines.

Content regarding presentation goes into the presentation thread, Luke.
According to my EPG, 7 Perth was scheduled to telecast the City of Perth Lotterywest Skyworks at 10:40pm tonight as well as 3PM Saturday. I have heard of the tragic news that a light white plane crashed into the Swan River that claimed two lives. Unfortunately, as a mark of respect City of Perth decided to cancel the event for this year. This would be the first time in its 33-year history that the City of Perth Skyworks was cancelled. I had to say that the Channel 7 Perth would have to think carefully about other scheduling.
Well yes, I imagine it’d be difficult to replay a broadcast that never happened.
