Seven’s Desperate marathon
Seven is so keen to hook you into Wisteria Lane this year it's planning a marathon.

Seven is very eager to push Desperate Housewives, which has been whipped by Underbelly.
So on Sunday March 15 it has a marathon of season 5 episodes, screening from 11am – 4.45pm.
There’s no doubting that this season is a return to form for Wisteria Lane, but it is has tough competition.
If you want to get up to speed, here’s a good chance.
But announcing the marathon for that date surely means there’s no need to tune in this Monday to episode 6?

is there going to be another desperate housewives marathon soon? 😀
when?
isn’t this show usually rated M?
seven should make this show tuesday 8.30 and bring packed to the rafters at 8.30 monday
brisvegas – Spot on!!
I love the idea of a marathon, great for more shows to be included though.
It would be great if this were shown on the HD channel an a better time – say 1pm till 6pm??
…and hell might freeze over
maybe if this succeeds, maybe they might thing of doing the same for other shows that may not be polling too well – or shows that are on the graveyard shift – 24, boston legal etc ?
Frankly marathons or catch-up sessions of Prime Time series on the weekend is a far better use of weekend TV that what currently occupies the weekend daylight hours – honestly who out there is watching this dreaded cornucopia of fishing shows, niche sports and advertorials masqueradings as travel/lifestyle programs?
Advertorials is the word. Many pay for themselves more or less.
I didn’t think the networks were allowed to show M-classified programs on weekend afternoons?
Agree encores good idea. Always thought a good idea for 2nd SD channels would be encore all of previous nights prime time during the day so one would have better options during the day than what is currently shown. Question is though, will 7 do this with DH regularly until UB finishes?
yeh well ima growing tired of the pro 7 pro 9 and a couple of pro 10 writers on this site…. i’d swear some of them are insiders for the networks…Ive even been accused of it…and I watch alot of TEn…but don’t push their cause…they don’t pay me
There are pro-network readers on all TV sites and messageboards because people are passionate about their TV. It’s like footy, cars, music, politics….
This is fantastic. Even though i have seen all these episodes it will be great to see them again. The ratings of the show is also starting to creep up so with any luck the showing of this marathon is only a bonus for the show.
Thats awesome I havent missed the episodes but they are so damn good Ill be tuning in for the marathon.
ITA its about time and it’s good to see them running encore eps in the normal midday movie slot on ch7, now if only they would promote them.
Like the idea and surprised that networks have not done thisbefore instead of those darn annoying infomercials late at night.
