So it changes colour? How the hell did 7 News pick that godawful colour.

I mean, it’s still absolutely terrible but at least the white works with the TT colour scheme.

Once again, TT gets the better of the two studio setups

That desk, while not great, looks okay in white. And with only one person behind it, it doesn’t look like a shopping centre.

What the. Wow.

End of an Era. I’m quite skeptical about the idea though as it rates well in Perth and has so for the last 25 years. What will Monica Kos do at Seven Perth now?

Also hearing Adelaide program has been axed

I’m surprised and stunned. It contributes to the success of TVW-7 And it’s dominance over STW-9 for two decades. TT won the ratings in Adelaide for 800 weeks.

That puts to bed any expectations that Today Tonight would be resurrected in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Yep. The east coast TT was axed in January 2014.

Wow I never expected that. Always thought the end of Sunday Night would at least help save these local editions.

Seven now completely out of current affairs.

It will be very interesting to see if hour-long editions in both states could change whether people tune in to 7 or 9.

Well across the east coast the second half of Seven News rates considerably better than Today Tonight used to. So potentially Seven could become more dominant in news in both markets.
