Nine promising “big surprise”
What big announcement, to be made shortly, is Nine hinting at?

Maybe I am overreacting, but I thought this is something you guys could have a little fun with…
At the end of Nine’s 2011 launch tomorrow in Sydney, there could be something extra-special being unveiled.
Nine Managing Director Jeffrey Browne has personally told me in the last week -not once but twice- that there will be a “big surprise” announced at the end of the launch.
The impression I get is that it’s not just a new show to be revealed.
Hmmmmmm…..I don’t really see how it can be a new channel. So is the primary channel switching to HD? Is TCN going to move house? Is Charlie Sheen going to make a personal appearance and apologise for his indiscretions and relentless repeats (which quite frankly are also indiscretions)?
You guys are always great with theories, so over to you….
Update: The surprise is PBL Media group rebrands as Nine Entertainment Co.

whoop-dee-doo – they’re renaming to “Nine Entertainment Co.”…
So the ‘big news’ is a name change to Nine Entertainment ?
As I said last night at 1.30am Jamie Durie is returning to nine!

Jamie Durie is going back to 9!
All they’re doing is renaming PBL Media to Nine Entertainment Co… what boring news.

I hate big build ups for crappy announcements like this…if thats all it is…

Remember the vancouver winter olympic auditions?
I believe the surprise is Jamie Durie is joining Nine again!
Jamie Durie? What a letdown.
Please tell me the surprise is not Jamie Durie….
wow! so many comments!, I think the surprise is just they (nine) have signed someone from Channel Seven or the boring Today show moving to melbourne?. I just hope that this big surprise is really worth all the hype.
@Josh – I think you’ve been had, mate. If there was a shred of credibility to that claim (HD switching to Seven’s main channel) I think we would have heard something from Seven *officially* by now, or they would have had the claim pulled from FB.
Plus, if they were to keep 7 as both SD and HD while also retaining 72 & 73, it wouldn’t be true HD as they don’t have the bandwidth. It could happen but prob not.
Perhaps the surprise could be Channel 9 team up with rival networks Ch 10 & Ch 7 to launch a joint TV Channel with 1st run premiers of TV shows never before seen in Australia.

Well here it is! What a Shock! OMG Who Cares!!!
