  1. So Gruen, War Of The Worlds and the final seasons of Rosehaven and B99. Fairly lean pickings. Seal Team S4 has started on Paramount Plus, Evil S2 is airing in the US but no sign of it here.

    Brian Cox’s Adventures in Time and Space is a clip show of his previous shows with updated narration. I watched a bit of it on BBC Earth.

  2. Waiting for Brian Cox’s adventure in time and space. His last one, The Planets, was incredible

    Brooklyn nine nine bows out with the final season. Hopefully ending on a high.

    1. Yes those shows are like The Simpsons. So many episodes have been made that are thrown into TV schedules randomly. They can be 5 years old and I haven’t seen them before hehehe.

  3. David is there any news on the new seasons of Endeavour and Vera for Aunty? I realise they’ve both been Covid-shortened to three episodes and 2×2 episodes respectively. I think I read somewhere that both would be available “towards the end of the year”,

  4. David, have you heard anything more about the 10/NITV show The First Inventors? It sounded interesting, but never struck me as a good fit for 10.

  5. I’m surprised to say there is very little on the entire list I’m looking forward to. The Newsreader looks excellent for the ABC and I’m keen for second seasons of War Of the Worlds and SAS Australia but that’s about it.

  6. No House Rules or MKR for Seven this year? Have they been axed or just rested? I enjoyed last years House Rules all be shortened series of it with Covid.

    1. House Rules jumped the shark with their judge and rule changes. When it became more about the judges theatrics and show tricks than the contestants, we lost interest. The Block have made a point of having a stable judging panel that don’t upstage the contestants, and simple rules.

  7. ABC seems to have a lot of shows coming (and more than the other networks). Looking forward to some of what is coming to ABC in particular.
