Triple header of Home and Away still doing wonders for Thursday nights. And Gogglebox doing okay for 10.
People obviously still don’t realise that Nickelodeon has movies on that channel at 7.30pm. 38k for Transformers Rise of the Beasts - a 2023 film - is low.
It’s 10. No budget for any ads outside of Big Brother.
But sadly, they have priorities else where. Nickelodeon has had some pretty good movies of late. And all i have seen are generic “Nick@Nite” ads, showing snippets from The Middle and random movies, that hasn’t been updated in months.
