Are there any more variety shows coming on Nine?
If you read the Upfronts you are up to date on confirmed new shows.
No, I meant repeats of variety shows like how Burt Newton was on Saturday night.
Thu 1pm Australia’s Top 10 of Everything.
From the legendary wit of Mel Brooks to a hilarious dressing down by Dame Edna; there’s a flashback from the 70’s with Sammy Davis Junior and an opening speech from Shaun Micallef that will have you in tears.
In Qld on Fri the Bert & Don Antics special is at 10:30am.
