Every season on Nine felt tired. They murdered the format. Take it back to the 2001-2007 era and it would be good IMO.

Interesting that Australia is participating in what seems to be a semi-global TV airing of this doco next Sunday. I wonder if Ten had an output deal that covered it or if they paid for itâŚ
I thought they did a good job on their first season. There was some interesting housemates. The problem was they copied the same thing every season.
Why do ten have to bring back big brother? Can they find a new format? Or perhaps commission multiple shows for the 7:30 slot rather than constant constructed reality.

How about some comedy and drama in the 7.30 timeslots to differentiate from the constant reality?
I agree with that. I would love to see a network attempt a drama or comedy at 7:30 and perhaps a few light entertainment shows. I guess the issue is the cost involved. It is obviously a lot cheaper, and perhaps safer, to commission these reality tent poles. I was only using Big Brother as an example. A new format would be ideal. I personally would love to see Come Dine with Me or Celebrity Come Dine With Me.
Wasnât that slated for 9 this year, then pushed back to next year?
I thought it was quietly forgotten about.
Dropped in the week it was supposed to start filming and still no reason.
Have seen 7âs and Wednesday is all factuals and Thursday is something called âWorldâs Angriestâ.
TEN did a similar show a few years ago but pushed it to Eleven at the last minute.
For a very good reason, Come Date with Me (based on the UK version, Come Dine With Me) was commissioned along with I Will Survive, Donât Tell The Bride, Everybody Dance Now and was absolute shit like all the shows mentioned above -but was held off and relegated to ELEVEN airing on Sunday/Monday nights from December the following year.
A well produced celebrity version of the original U.K. version would do well I think, was actually probably the only show on 9 I wouldâve watched this year other than Hyde & Seek.
Ten have pulled the Michael Moore in TrumpLand episode from our screens this Sunday night.
It was an odd choice for prime time in Australia anyway. Maybe for a late night slot or on One but defo not for Ten in that previously scheduled slot.

That was a fantastic show, shame season two never happened. Anyone have the opener and closer of it - not on YouTube or online

So Ten has officially closed up shop for the year?
Could they not schedule some first run movies or something during the week?
