Hi David
Have you heard any news of a Australian broadcast for the Amazing Race season 32 starting next week?
Sorry nothing showing up.
Yes, I loved the new season of Halifax! I’d love to see another season. What are the chances?
Really enjoyed Halifax. Loved how it ended and Rebecca Gibney is just fantastic and one day needs t be in the hall of fame. Kudos to Claudia Karvan on her character to.
I really enjoyed watching Halifax: Retribution and I really hope there is another season. And I’m really glad 9Gem is going to show the original series of Halifax because I never saw it.
20 of the original 21 Halifax f.p. tele-movies are available on 9Now (have been for a while now) so you don’t necessarily need to wait until next Tuesday:

For reasons unbeknown to me Nine removed or pulled the 4th episode of season 1 … “My Lovely Girl” a week or two after they were made available … curious to know why though.
A reader has referred to the cast as a telling reason.
OK, the reason is no longer unbeknown.
It looks like the Final finished higher than the debut. Which is a great result for the live viewing and I assume more caught up on time shifting after the debut and perhaps of mouth of word and reviews encouraged further viewing.
Here’s hoping networks still invest in Aussie drama!
Yes premiere was 544k. Also doing well on Timeshifted.
Yes, I love that Related posts make it easier to locate that information :)
Another great feature that may often get overlooked on this great blog!
Looking at those numbers must be a lot viewing streming TV or reading a book
Good to hear that A Planet for Us All did better than last night’s Trump special…
7 only have 2 AFL finals this week to try and catch up to 9, they don’t appear to have much other opposition!
