Really enjoyed Mr Black last night
I put it on timer last week, went to watch it tonight missed the end as it started 8 mins late, didn’t recheck timer before hand! Deleted it, can’t be bothered now. Still typical late reality stuffs up the rest of the schedule
It’s not often, if ever actually, that I congratulate Channel Nine (no hidden agenda in regards to them, they just generally piss me off more than the other FTA channels)… but they need to be congratulated on Lego Masters. I watched the first few eps but haven’t been able to watch the others as of yet, but I enjoyed what I saw. This had the potential in my opinion, to be a major flop… but hats off. They’ve got an unmitigated success story.
Several years ago MasterChef had a shocker season and Matt is on the record as saying something to the effect, “if we’re not authentic the audience can see that and they stopped watching” when talking about his throwing the plate antics. They did that last night when they chose 2 people for the immunity challenge. I am getting very cynical but that was way too scripted for my liking. I’ve been a big fan but that was insulting to viewers.
Hi David. Can you please tell me what was the last show to debut with every episode over 1m. Thanks.
I can’t. Maybe Ninja, but the site archives you see is all I would use to check. I try to put same info at your fingertips.
Thanks David
Who do you think you are was really gripping. Congrats to SBS. Jennifers story was astounding.
Totally agree the Recording Studio is a hidden gem love it. Only came across it accidentally last week when I was changing channels
Interview with Jackie Weaver was really good, she is so engaging, and I’ve gone from liking her to loving her.
The Recording Studio is an incredible show. The best “factual” show I’ve seen in years.
I would have to agree !
I also agree. Love this show. Still on a buzz after last weeks episode with Guy Sebastion. Great TV.
