Arias and most award shows just needs to be streamed live on youtube or Facebook. That has to be the next step for award shows cause people just end up watching the clips of acceptance speeches and or performances after the show anyway
The home and away finale was epic last night. Enjoyed the Good Doctor and can’t believe it’s the finale already in 2 weeks.
It’s not the season final. The Good Doctor has 18 episode seasons. With the episode in two weeks we will have seen 10. Seven just call it the season final because its end of ratings and saying end of season gives them a way out of not showing the next episodes till Feb.
It’s only the mid-season break – it’ll be back in the new year.
In feb.
Poor Ten . I’m really enjoying The Unicorn although admittedly watched last nights in ten play . But not like I have a ratings box. I think the Melbourne Cup lower figures prove that people just don’t know how to turn the tv up . to ten . It really needs a flagship sport and fix the early evening
Well 10 was very upbeat about Cup figures. Didn’t seem to stop Masked Singer, MasterChef and Aus. Survivor.
HYBPA also. This show gets big ratings and is a home grown concept and looks like it would be cheap to produce.
So cheap in fact that it’s still produced in standard definition!
I am amazed that a song that has smashed every record for a number one song didn’t win Song of the Year. Seems like a sham to me.
I agree. The qualification is right there in the title, Song Of the Year.
That award is fan voted thou so maybe the cool kids don’t find Arias worthy of their time..
Recovery: The Music and The Mayhem, what an amazing special. This show sparked my passion for music but also my career into live television in the years to come.
I was able to tell Dylan this further in my career when I finally got to work with him.
The show meant a lot to myself but also to a lot 90’s kids to express themselves artiscally.
Really miss live television with no autocues!!
Its great to The Set showcasing local music again.
If you missed the show last night, get on to ABC iView..
Yes it was ace, premiered on Saturday so I gave it Daily Pick then.
More were watching Peach + Bold than were watching 10.
