Actually I added more than the original article linked including 20-1. After multiple seasons I think Nine would deem it a success, certainly on the cost front.
Not a great record of in house development at Nine in recent years.
Hot Plate, Amazing Homes & Last Resort
Let’s be fair. Travel Guides, Married At First Sight, Same Time Next Year have all done well, one in particular.
Is remaking a successful overseas format still counted as development ?
Clearly an adaptation, and ESA took it further. Clearly there were titles you still left off, but the article offered a range. Also his title was Prdn and Dev.
