There is a four-page feature on Australian Idol at the back of this new issue, with articles on Kyle and with Marcia. With proper photos of them. Surely, they could have used them (plus Amy Shark) on the cover instead of a H&A episode shot which looks crap on the cover.
Also, there are pieces on Sigrid Thornton, and Anna Torv (of The Newsreader) that mention the AACTA Awards in their stories. But strangely enough, no mention of the actual 2025 AACTA Awards that are held next Friday, which is in their TV Guides. Not even a brief article talking about some of their tv awards…
No surprise but at least some diversity on the cover this week.
Was having a look at some old covers if TV Week recently and noticed how much more diversity they had back in the 60s and 70s compared to now. They would feature people like Justine Saunders, Kamahl and Chelsea Brown. But now…
The erection they have for this man is insane. Plenty of other opportunities to feature other stars or stories, but nope, gonna get that HAA connection onto the cover as much as possible.
In today’s issue, there is a mention that this Thursday (20 Feb), a Special Collector’s Edition (of TV Week) mag of Home and Away will be on sale. They had one a few years ago.
A random Wentworth Collectors Issue was on sale a while ago too.
With The Newsreader, Married at First Sight and Survivor Aus on the covers for the last three issues, they had to come up with this random separate “Home and Away” so they can be on the cover. lol.
