7TWO amendments

Some minor changes to 7TWO affecting mostly late night vintage AFL matches.

aflPrior to its launch today at 12pm, 7TWO has made some adjustment to its first week of programming.

The introduction to the channel is now ten minutes instead of five with Michael Jackson: His Latest Televised Concert to commence at 12:10pm.

There have been episode changes to The Jay Leno Show weekdays at 6pm -though it isn’t clear how…

From 1am Wednesday night (Thursday morning) vintage AFL Footy Flashbacks have been ditched, to be replaced with The Mole and followed by Home Shopping at 2am. From 4am it airs The Body Specialists, Medical Rookies and Kids Time from 5am.

AFL Footy Flashbacks are also out a week later on the morning of Thursday November 12  and November 19. But the games remain screening late nights on other days.

  1. David could you please find out if jay leno s on hoildays in the US?, because if he is i guess we will be seeing old eps/or from the start, which i hope 7TWO does when hes off in the US

  2. Those of you in Prime territory aren’t missing much. 7TWO is an absolute letdown. Of course with the opportunity to show even more home shopping, Prime may just have the incentive to get it to air that much quicker.

  3. that was no intro, it was just two of the promos they’ve been looping on 72 already, and hugh sheridan overload. I thought we’d atleast get tom williams telling us something new, what a waste of my time. I think the welcome they were refering to was just the countdown and that quiet voice that said “welcome to television” trying to echo the same statement from 50 years ago, it may have made some sense if they added the word “digital” into the sentence.

  4. Please keep home shopping channel off 7TWO! As I said before, 7TWO should show NBC Today in full from midnight, and (for Perth viewers) Sunrise from 3am to 6am so that people won’t miss on parts of the show that are omitted due to sporting commitments (Melbourne Cup, tennis etc.).

  5. I have no problem with Home Shopping on 7Two…… as long as it has been taken off the main channel in return!

    Jeez that Hugh Sheridan song is awful! Just hit the mute button

  6. Why on earth did they start the first 10 minutes with Hugh Sheridan and his new Hit (big fail if you ask me) single, then ‘Packed to the Rafter’s’ promo…. Not the best of choices.

  7. i cant stand ethier home shopping or AFL but i think it is stupid to put more home shopping on by doing that they will lose the tiny amount of viewers whio are watching tv at that time

  8. Re: Jay Leno Show episode changes – there was a promo on Seven for The Jay Leno Show which mentioned an appearance by Hamish & Andy on Wednesday. Considering that appearance was on the second or third episode, I reckon that means that the episodes coming to 7TWO may not be very ‘fresh’.

  9. I really hope they don’t put TV shopping (read: ads) during the night…. Or if they simply must have 2 hours of ads, leave either the main or the second channel with an actual show on.

  10. I’m not a fan of the Victorian game, but *anything* would have been better than Home Shopping in early mornings.

    I’m not up at that time – but I’m sure there is people that are, that don’t want to see wall to wall shopping shows.

    Although, anything with Mr T involved is always a hoot! 🙂

  11. It just sounds like the network is dishing up more sh!t.

    I do just wish that Prime would make an announcement, any announcement is fine just let us know what’s going on. It obviously ain’t coming but to stay silent does not look good.

  12. So they are wasting their multi-channel at 2am by screening home shopping? This will give Nine and TEN ideas for their Go! and One channels so as commercial tv continues with its gluttony of mid-dawn infomercials on all commercial channels, what a wasteland!

  13. The first 24 hours on 7Two are completely boring! So very, very disappointing!!! Absolutely nothing of any interest … get it together 7 for pity sake!!!! Check out the digital guide …
    Jack!

  14. Wow a 10 min into LOL

    Maybe with Leno they were going to show it from the start but decided to drop the first few months an go fo more current shows? IMO they should show new/current shows at 6pm and run the ‘older’ ones at late night for those who want to catch those interviews until they catch up and them maybe use the late night time to encore the show from 6pm…

  15. Sorry, Tim Worner. “Hope Shopping” is not a show. It’s a two hour advertisement for pimple cream and dodgy body-building garbage.

    Fail.

    Please note, Mr Ego, that Nine does not feel the need to fill its overnight schedule on Go with spam.

    As I said, fail.
