Do they get a ratings hit when Ding Dong is on? Are they able to promote her enough days before to make a difference?

The show has instantly been more funny in the last 15 mins than I can remember when, get Stevie on board permanently.
Great chemistry with Sarah.

You cannot beat established chemistry.
Just give him the permanent role as host and find something else for Tristan, or maybe he can go back to DWTS on Seven

I’ve argued for ages it should air later. Even try 10-1, a bit like This Morning on ITV. Get away from the competition a little bit and build an audience that way. The earlier slots it rates the worst. Stevie and Sarah would be great hosts, use Natasha on news and Ange still, but have more guests, a regular chef etc. Make it less reliant on packages and shitty entertainment filler. Actually produce it.

I think shortening the show would be a good start too, and try breaking it up a bit.
Making the advetorials more interesting would be a good start too, actually produce those.
The show needs to be different, not a cheap imitation of the same.

Starting at 8am doesn’t help. It is against very tough competition - the last hour of Sunrise and Today (and even ABC News Breakfast), which all seem to rate highly compared to “Studio 10 Early”. Four hours of Studio 10 is too much too. Have it 9-12, or as mentioned above - 10am-1pm to be different.
As for the advertorials - as boring as they are - at least make them somewhat interesting o the viewer. Like what Bert Newton did on GMA with “Here’s Moira” and make light of them to an extent.
Steve Jacobs has been a good addition of late.

Again, the telethon goes for so long so that they can hit local content quotas.

Net Monday’s show will be the face of 10’s ANZAC Day coverage with coverage across the nation. The show will run until 12:15 PM and include “performances from Ding Dong and Normie Rowe”.
Despite the “live” promo there is delayed coverage outside of AEST.

Pretty disappointing if all they’re offering is more of the same.
It’s a very special ANZAC Day. With special guests Ding Dong and Normie Rowe, join us live around Australia and the world as we commemorate our ANZACs.

Why are these images all named “Judge Judy”?

The file name on the computer - recording started when Judge Judy was airing.

Wow, two fairly green presenters for a day of fairly important topics and they’ve got Jess paired with Tristan? Hmm, not sure that’s the best they could have come up with personally.

I’m going to presume from now on you tape Judge Judy every day.
