TEN’s schedule for the first week of ratings is confirmed.
The Biggest Loser, hosted by Hayley Lewis, is stripped across its week following The 7PM Project, leaving some shows to commence at 8pm and others at 8:30pm.
So You Think You Can Dance Australia will become a Wednesday night variety show, following its debut week of auditions beginning Sunday January 31st.
Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Generation shifts from Tuesdays to Sundays followed by The Good Wife premiere and House.
Bondi Rescue and Law and Order: SVU return.
And TEN is all but cutting its umbilical cord to The Simpsons. Just one episode will air across the week as a 20th Anniversary Special on Sunday (except for one rpt in Melb.). With TEN having aired 4 new episodes already in summer, it is no longer screening a new episode on weeknights, and Malcolm in the Middle remains in its traditional weeknight 6pm slot.
Also premiering or returning are The Circle, Meet the Press plus sports events NAB Cup and the NFL SuperBowl.

We’ll have pretty much caught up with the States by next week, hence no new eppies of the Simpsons. Their next new ep airs Jan 31, and we’ll have aired all news episodes by then. They’ll be wanting to build a backlog, me thinks.
Michelle and Hayley look very similar in that photo. Good line up. Will miss TBL on at 7pm. Happy to have a repeat of The Good Wife on a Friday night, works well. They just need to get rid of the repeats of The 7pm Project before Letterman.
That’s a shame that Outrageous Fortune has been removed from the schedule 🙁
Why do they have to keep on repeating 7pm late night?
Ugh, no White Collar or Supernatural, the only two shows I’m really interested in. No point watching 10 at all, I guess.
Can see that schedule doing well for 10 with lots of shows to appeal to the young hipsters. Like another poster Malcolm is starting to grow on me and it’s a nice change from The Simpsons.
Don’t like House moving to Sunday night I prefer it as a midweek show. Prefer TBYG on Tuesdays as well but Sunday is ok.
Not too bad, but you can see TBYG losing audience from the older end to 60 minutes if it’s back by then. And 10 bucks Border Security goes to Sundays at 7:30, so that will affect it too. I think Tuesdays was it’s perfect corner. But in the words of televsion ‘When you find a better thing, stuff with it’
As for Burn Notice, great show, but I’d side with putting White Collar on ahead of this.
Of course , there’s no Melrose Place.
or 90210 or anything I am wating for .They messed up The Office for me too.
Luckily all these X channel 10 shows will be on dvd this year and I predict before Channel Ten screen it .Then they’ll screen it but won’t watch it .
I’m happy with Your Gen moving into Sunday’s – a good way to finish off the weekend.
The 1-2 hour block of 7PM/Loser pretty much rules me out for that hour, and presumably much of the rest of the evenings unless I happen to flick back.
So I gathered no return of White Collar any time soon by the looks of it. Ch10 has lost a viewer forever now.
White Collar will most likely be given a chance on tens new channel. I think they are doing the right thing putting NCIS rpts on Fridays. It may only rate 600-700k but thats more consitent than other things that have been on in that timeslot. The Good Wife encore might be smart as well as ten would be hoping for the most out it.
Generation at 7:30 Sunday is smart. I ask those of you who say it shouldn’t move from tuesday to answer this: What would you think of it starting at 8:00 tuesdays and new episodes of NCIS starting at 9:00?
Neighbours will Never be axed anytime soon or moved from that 6:30 timeslot. Half the cost is paid by the UK and it is shown in over 50 countries. Aint going anywhere ten make sooooo much money from the show. The 7PM project shouldn’t be moved either, just yet, give it the next 3 months to build. It is doing pretty well this summer – not getting smashed anyway. So it should be interesting to see how it does when it has a solid lead out (The Biggest Loser). And for those who don’t think it has improved it got 630k on wednesday and neighbours got 440k. 7PM rarely outrates Neighbours by that much and I think it only did that 3 times in ratings period last year and that was in its first week.
Loving the new night for So You Think You Can Dance. Both SYTYCD & Idol perform extremely well on Wednesday nights in the US. Hopefully it will be equally successful here in Australia!
Can someone confirm that it will remain on Wednesday nights? And then Thursday night live results?
Really don’t know why they can’t put White Collar on Friday instead of NCIS. I love NCIS but i’d rather watch new White Collar episodes. I’ve given up watching NCIS repeats now.
I wonder how long it takes for the Simpsons to come back. Nothing else seems to have lasted in the 6pm slot.
I wonder why ten haven’t tried moving 7pm around a bit. Personally, it would be great to watch at 6.30 in opposition of ACA/TT, but I suppose that would come at the cost of cannibalising Neighbours ratings. But would ten consider doing this if it boosted its overall ratings for the 6.30-7.30 time slot?
I wouldn’t put it at 6, especially coming straight in after the news (but weren’t they talking about 1.5 hours of news a short time ago) I can’t see it holding up against 7 or 9 though.
I reckon all up that’s pretty good for TEN. However, I’d really sort out their 6-7PM block ASAP. Malcom in the Middle isn’t the solution. TEN News should go from either 5:30-6:30 or start at 5 still and go for 90 mins until 6:30, and hopefully that’d give Neighbours a bit of a boost.
Still no sign of White Collar? Ugh, I give up on you Ten.
tbyg should stay on tue, and burn notice shouldnt be on so late!
Does anyone know if ONE have the Daytona 500 qualifying races and the race itself showing?
Malcolm needs a chance at 6pm – I have to admit I’m starting to get attached to it…
David, is the Friday NCIS rpt an “encore” of Tuesday’s new ep or will it be an old episode?
NCIS Fri rpt is different ep to Tues.
I look forward to Ross Noble and possibly an episode of SVU here and there but it looks like 2010 might be end of regular tv watching for me. Too many DVD box sets to get through.
Shame Ten couldn’t make room for The Simpsons; there’s a lot of Loser in that schedule; with 1.5 hours on Friday you’d think they could cut Monday to half hour and have the Simpsons flow into GNW.
Malcolm needs to go Neighbours needs to be taken out and be shot.
Its not a bad schedule though it should be fairly solid; but I can’t help but think Ten will be down compared to last year; they’re not trying to rebuild the schedule from 7pm anymore after a horrendous 6pm hour but now Ten are going to need to rebuild from 7.30 – their 7.30-10.30 shows are going to need to be mighty strong to make up for a poor performing 6-7.30.
Well, that would explain why I thought I saw a billboard today with Shaun Micallef laying across a big “Sunday”.
Nice to see Malcom at 6pm and a break from new Simpsons eps.
Interesting that Talking bout your generation is on a different night now.
This looks like a pretty good lineup. Hope it works for Ten. Think they still need to fix The 7pm Project though. Theres just no chemistry there and it often doesnt flow. Dave Hughes is good on Before The Game, but doesnt fit in this genre. Too many “comedians” trying to get a punchline out of everything. The shows a great idea, but it stil needs a major overhaul.
Let’s see Ross Noble sounds good and nothing else oh ten why do you suck so hard?
