Happy fat pizza toped the secondary channels
Coming on Today, MAFS the live birth. Try matching that Sunrise.
Seven did a live caesarean in Operative Live in Feb but bailed on the heart surgery special.
Except it was edited and not “live” to air
Yes true. The show was live the birth had been shot a few hours earlier.
Regarding Zumbo you would have to wonder why Netflix is so interested in a poor rating TV show. Do they think it will be hugely popular overseas?
With respect they don’t have to think whether it will be popular overseas. They only have to look to the data and metrics from S1. Netflix doesn’t care about Aus broadcast ratings. Streaming services allow for niche shows to find global audiences. They have a show about blowing glass.
Oh god. Met on Married at first sight and got married on A Current Affair. Cringe. Do they get some sort of appearance fee for ACA? Otherwise, why!?
I believe so.
Enjoyed TARA last night seeing the Instagram account holders leaving at the end!! I was disappointed in the speed bump being that both of them had to perform the jump rather than working together on a separate task.
I think many were pleased at that result. Especially given the night before’s non-elimination leg. I am extra happy that the only reason they were eliminated last night was because they broke the rule about speeding. Just shows them that you can break all the rules you want, doesn’t mean there aren’t consequences though.
That was karma and that they went with less that a minute to go was even more satisfying I wanted them to go since they pinched the nuns dumpling
Not every day I see someone talk about pinching a nun’s dumpling.
Everything’s a euphemism in Australia, isn’t it?
$75 000 well spent lol
Oh my goodness , yesterday I watched Zumbo’s show, it is truly awful, how did it get renewed !!!!!!
That’s old common knowledge by now ..
For Netflix. One has to ask if Netflix is desperate or did they pick it up in the $2 bin?
Netflix also picked up Yummy Mummies for a second season and I would not watch that if my life depended on it. Trash!
Well done on TARA leading all the advertising friendly demos for the night. Let’s hope it is renewed next year.
Already has been. It was in the Upfronts 🙂
Good news that it has been renewed but it really needs tweaking in the next season. There are many important small details that have been omitted, and the season hasn’t been as good as it could be. Hopefully more sponsors next year will mean more money to improve.
Hopefully next season teams will be more evenly based. Was wondering if the team who have checked in 1st out of 8 finishes this season is a record.
