Seven (Southern Cross)

I have. Watch any Ramsay show after the BBL, full of 7FN ads.

Have seen the new 7 promo for the year with all the personalities several times today on 7 Tasmania. Absolutely no changes, includes all the Melbourne news team (who we don’t see) and the tagline “Melbourne’s Favourite” at the end.

What the…? Is there another playout issue at SCA?

Why not just keep using the “You’re In My Heart” pillow promo until/if they film an updated one?

The Tasmanian version has now been released, just shared on the Nightly News 7 Tasmania facebook page (still a mouthful!). As predicted it has the News team in there replacing the Melbourne ones and a couple of logos missing from that shot - only 7, 7Two, 7Mate and 7plus. Also ends with Tasmania’s Favourite.

There’s a big 2019 coming your way here on 7 Tasmania - Lead by MKR on January 29.

As mentioned in the Seven presentation thread they seem to have got the date wrong!

Do we ever think Southern Cross (in the near future) may sell out to Seven?

I don’t think so.
Correct me if I’m wrong but last I remember, 7 said they weren’t interested in buying them out (it could’ve been with Prime/GWN)

Prime approached Seven and Seven said no.

I doubt it. Affiliation is a continuous revenue source for Seven with none of the responsibility (staff, infrastructure, sales, etc.)

Does Southern Cross get any benefit in their agreement from promoting 7plus?

There would also have to be some doubt about the financial viability of regionals if not their existence.

All the networks have their own live streaming services effectively by passing their affiliates.

While I don’t think they’ll disappear soon… Long term with the NBN and alternative sources of local news there’s just no reason for them to exist in the long term.

My guess is no but instead a requirement in the affiliation agreement.

Do “(the) Spencer Gulf’s Favourite” and “Central (Australia)'s Favourite” exist?

Interesting!
Any reason the show is not being shown in Tas?

Legal reasons, because the program is about the murder of a man in Tasmania and an appeal case is still before the courts there.

Because of that, Seven Tasmania will likely air Undercurrent at a later date.
