  1. I don’t think it’s too early to call it: Neighbours 3.0 has bombed on FTA in Australia. I tried for a week and can’t keep doing it. I hope it is working worldwide for Amazon.

    1. Need to be realistic about the timeslot. What sort of numbers were you expecting at 4:30? Bold used to get about 120k which is what Neighbours did on Monday. But as you hint, it’s a bigger picture than just Oz.

  2. I’d like to see a bit of a refresh for Gogglebox. If they didn’t want to axe anyone they have two seasons a year so could show half the established cast plus some newbies in the first half season and then do the others plus more newbies in the latter half season.
