The Bachelorette has three weeks left in this season including this week, with the finale set for Thursday October 26. It means Ten has the whole November to fill with official ratings finishing on December 2. Ten will need more than Jamie Oliver to fill its Wednesday and Thursday 7.30pm timeslot.

Theyâve still got another Season of Todd Sampsonâs Bodyhack to come, so thereâs a couple of weeks content plus weâll probably see the usual David Attenborough doco or similar for a couple of weeks in the 7:30pm timeslot to fill some holes.
Ten always run out of content. Every year!! The idiots really do not know how to plan.
And because they have no money they canât purchase and special event programming etc to fill holes.
Hopefully this might change under cbs

I thought they planned for this this year. Something about shifting their schedule 10%?
I assume the failure of TBL earlier in the year affected their plan for the year?
Didnât they just air Jamie, Family Feud etc. The Biggest Loser still finished in daytime a few days or the day Masterchef began. Unless they scheduled double episodes or something?
I honestly donât remember as I didnât watch Ten in that period. 
I think the main problem is that Ten has been showing MasterChef from the night after My Kitchen Rules ends, and forgetting about the back end of the official ratings season. Next year they should put the season finale of The Bachelorette on the last Thursday of official ratings and work backwards, to determine how many episodes of The Bachelor in Paradise are needed between Iâm a Celebrity and the start of MasterChef.

Rather prophetic.
According to EPG and advanced guides
Next week will see the premiere of Jamieâs Quick & Easy Food (1 hour) in the 7.30pm Tuesday slot (vacated by the postponed premiere of Cram).

Maybe some movie premieres to help fill the void?
Movies still rate well, just look at Indiana Jones recently (and theyâre not even premieres).
So bring back some classics or blockbusters even.
Yes, as my username suggests, I might be a bit bias in this regard
Ten could show some free out of copyright 1930s classics in primetime.

Hopefully the last time we see shit like Jamie Oliver in primetime. CBS canât come soon enough.
I found Man with a Plan boring.
Dont count on it.

New Corp has noticed The Simpsons has vanished from Ten.
Nine told News Corp they may be interested in one or two Fox shows but would not be doing a blanket studio deal. Seven wouldnât comment.

Financially Ten arenât in the Best Shape to air Brand New Modern Family nor The Simpsons, Not Even Eleven could get their Hands on the Latest Supernatural Season which is due to Premiere in the States This Week.
Itâs not a case of âgetting their hands onâ the latest episodes.The Fox contract has been broken so there will be no Fox shows on Ten, Eleven or One now.
They have to sign a new contract or Foxtel will be the only option to watch them.
