Now hear this. Next Thursday is looming as one of the best nights for TV drama this year.
There are several choices vying for your attention and it will surely require some major planning by viewers and have PVRs running in overdrive.
Take a look at these:
8:30pm. ABC1: The Slap premiere. The pick of the night.
8:30pm TEN: Rush. Best episode this year. Must-see for loyal fans.
8:30pm Nine: Unforgettable premiere. Poppy Montgomery stars in new US crime drama. A bit routine but will appeal to fans of The Mentalist.
9:30pm ABC: Crownies. I’ve yet to watch this episode.
10pm SBS: Big Love. Premiere of the fifth and final season. Terrific episode with guest cast Gregory Itzin and Grant Show.
Plus 8:30pm Showcase: True Blood. I’ve yet to watch this episode too.
Oh and did I mention the double episode premiere of The Amazing Race at 9:30pm on Seven?
Aye carumba!

@ Tony H – thanks for the Luther reminder….in HD too
@ stevesydney – i think you will find all shows that air on PayTV are not edited or watered down as they are on FTA……hence i think you will never see the likes of True Blood,Game of Thrones etc on FTA
Best thing about Pay TV is even though you may miss the premiere ep of a show you still can catch it within the next week before the next episode airs and the EPG/Series Links work a treat.Can’t say the same for FTA.
Wednesday and Thurday night – tapping 2 shows swapping between 2 others!!!! still better that repeats!
Thursday – thats the night my PlayStation 3 calls out for me. Wont be any different this Thursday night either
Check your EPG, as when I did my weekly check last night I saw that Rush is on at 9.30, could be an aberration because of daylight saving, but just check
