BB: Surprise scheduling

When the show is sinking, just add more?

That seems to be TEN’s strategy with Big Brother, now announcing the return of Monday nominations and a Surprise Eviction.

Nominations return from 7:30pm Mondays and the Surprise Eviction is set for 7:30pm Wednesday July 9.

Last night with the return of Kyle Sandilands, BB resumed its 1m audience for the eviction show, fourth in its timeslot. It was down the week before due to the long weekend.

But the 6:30pm edition was even beaten by the ABC’s Einstein Factor and ABC News.

TEN’s evening share was also fourth for the night behind the ABC.

  1. Dear Big Brother/Network TEN,

    If you want to win the number 1 position for the night, maybe the week or even the year, you should highly advertise for 7 days telling people to watch the next Sunday show as Big Brother ends the season early, watch to see the final ever episode of Big Brother Australia, a show which can’t be missed, watch the reactions of the housemates as Big Brother admits it’s been a failure and pulls the plug. See the housemates question if they have been the most boring set ever cast.

    That would be Must See TV!!

    An Australian TV history making moment!?

    I think most people would love to see it officially fail.

    It would be more dignified exit over the long-term train wreck we see now. Which is pushing other more valuable shows around causing people to miss them in an effort to avoid the mess that is BB08.

    Think about it mate, it’s for the best!

  2. I seem to remember promos advertising that everything was going to change, and that it was not going to be the same BB… all I’ve seen this year (from the few moments that I can be bothered to watch) is everything going back to the way it was…

  3. Great I used to love nominations who will be hosting it the legendry mike Goldman or Jackie O and king vile just wish they would bring back up late

  4. Rules of Engagement really gets raped by this network. There’s only 8 episodes to go of the season, I guess it won’t make a difference to wait another week…or 2…or 3.I was wondering what they were going to replace BTY with anyway as thats finishing on Wednesday…or was it next Wednesday? I stopped watching that show so I couldn’t care less, I just want to know waht they’ll replace it with.

  5. I was really enjoying the much shorter versions of nominations from the last two weeks – it just cuts out the crap.

    Will Mike host? He is under utilised.

  6. interesting! I guess the logic would be it cant to any worse than whats in those slots? who’s hosting these I wonder..If I recall Vile and Jackie Ho are only contracted for the sunday night eviction show due to their other commitments
