  1. The list has been drawn from public statements by networks.

    William: There has been no change to Batavia announcement, despite my asking TEN. Party Tricks was confirmed for 2014.

    Mr J: TEN has not made any announcement regarding Bet on Your Baby, let alone a date. Seven is yet to confirm more Brynne.

    Billy: No Amazing Race Aus this year.

    Aeddie: No confirmation yet on more Biggest Loser even though we know it has been filming.

    No confirmation on Doctor Who. Some shows already have airdates: The Bible, South Park, Broadchurch etc. Ripper Street already in promos. However the list is about what’s coming.

  2. I still don’t understand why 7 is playing movies on weeknights lately with Pirates 4 and Red…They said they had a packed schedule this year but doesn’t seem that way to me now. Then add in Criminal Minds repeats as well and it really doesn’t looked packed at all to me

  3. @ billy66683- Hey. Yes. The answer is no, it won’t.
    I’m wondering if Stephen Hawking’s Brave New World is a new series as the local library has had the series from 2011 on DVD for a long time.

  4. Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special (probably 24/11)
    Doctor Who Christmas Special (probably 26/12).
    An Adventure in TIme and Space (Doctor Who Drama chronicling the creation of the series)

    What about Series 3 of Scott and Bailey?

  5. Mr Selfridge replacing A Place To Call Home, Ripper Street replacing Elementary and the Mentalist S5 final eps being used as a platform for Underbelly and Puberty Blues replacing Offspring seem the most logical moves.
    (all programming guesses subject to random changes and disinformation put out by networks).

    Hopefully once Seven have finished screwing around with Happy Endings and The Mindy Project they will screw around with the final season of 30 Rock.

    SBS also have S3 of The Killing starting on Wednesday 24th of July (I presume S3 because the synopsis isn’t for S1 or 2). S2 of The Bridge could follow that.

    The BBC announced the 3rd season of Silk but haven’t scheduled it. Presumably the ABC knows it will be this year sometime.

    Thanks for the heads up on The Mentalist. I would have missed them in the sea of repeats on Nine.

    Seven haven’t bother to show the second half of S2 of Suits, so fast tracking S3 would be out of the question.

    Scandal is huge in the US, it failed badly here though.

  7. Suits & Covert Affairs starts in the US next week. I suppose it’s too much to expect 7 to fast track them. Still waiting for the 2nd season of Scandal and the final season of Proof of Life. Scandal is huge in the US, don’t know why 7 didn’t fast track it. Instead of showing cancelled shows like Red Widow, they should be showing these shows. Save Red Widow for the non-ratings time.

  8. Wish Ten would hurry up and deliver the new episodes of Futurama.
    I mean do they really have that much of a jam-packed bustling schedule of repeated repeats that they can’t find the time to fit it in?
    Mind you, these are the same monkeys who waste New Simpsons in a 6pm slot on a Sunday. It’s one of their few drawcard shows and it should be on in prime time.
