TV Tonight turns 6!

Six years on and still going strong. Thank you for your continued support.

2013-01-03_1959TV Tonight turns 6 today, Saturday January 5th.

That’s 6 years of blogging about the highs and lows of Australian and international telly.

In that time there has been plenty of Exclusives broken, thousands of questions answered and sometimes even managing to hold networks to account.

When I started the site, Social Media was ignored by networks, now it is actively pursued. Some even suggested the site would be gone before it gathered any kind of following. By contrast, print media has sadly seen many of its wise voices exit while TV Tonight has picked up blog awards, review quotes on ads, and press and radio coverage. In November I was also listed in The Age’s Melbourne Top 100 people for 2012.

The site continues to bring you access to stars, execs, writers, producers and more. Here’s a list of last year’s feature interviews:

Aaron Pederson, Abe Forsythe, Adam Hills, Adam Richard, Adam Zwar, Adrian Swift, Alex Williams, Amanda Brotchie, Andrew Backwell, Andrew Denton, Andrew Gunsberg, Andy Allen, Angus Ross, Anupam Sharma, Arul Baskran, Asher Keddie, Beverley McGarvie, Brendan Dahill, Brian Walsh, Carrie Bickmore, Catherine Deveny, Catherine McClements, Charlie Pickering, Chas Licciardello, Chrissie Swan, Colin Jackson, Craig Graham, Damian Walshe-Howling, Damon Gameau, Darren Wick, David Koch, David Mott, Dieter Brummer, Ed Kavalee, Eddie McGuire, Essie Davis, Fiona Eagger, Firass Dirani, Frank Woodley, Garry McDonald, Geoff Browne, George Calombaris, G-Luv, Graeme Garden, Graham Phillips, Grant Hansen, Hamish Blake, Hamish MacDonald, Harrison Gilbertson, Hugh Johnstone-Burt, Hugh Sheridan, Ian Collie, Ian Dickson, Imogen Banks, Jane Liscombe, Jane Roscoe, Janet Holmes-a-Court, Jason Priestly, Jeanette McCurdy, Jeremy Sims, Joanna Werner, John Clarke, John Edwards, John Godfrey, John Waters, Jonathan Holmes, Jordan Rodrigues, Justice Crew, Justine Clarke, Karina Carvalho, Karl Stefanovic, Kat Stewart, Ken Sutcliffe, Kim Kardashian, Lachy Hulme, larry Emdur, Lee Lin Chin, Luke and Wyatt, Margie Bashfield, Matt Moran, Matt Preston, Megan Hilty, Melissa Doyle, Michael Healy, Michael Rowland, Myf Warhurst, Nicole Minchin, Paul Fenech, Penny Chapman, Peter Hitchener, Peter Hudson, Richard Roxburgh, Rick Maier, Rob Carlton, Rob Mills, Rove McManus, Sarah Murdoch, Scott Brennan, Sean Cohen Shaun Micallef, Simone Jade McKinnon, Sonia Kruger, Stephan Elliott, Stephen Garrett, Steve Bracks, Tanya Denning, The Commando, Tim Campbell, Tina Arena, Tony Iffland, Wayne Dyer, Wendy Harmer, Wil Anderson, Yalda Hakim.

Cheers, David.
