Bring back The Ex List!
Ten….. seriously….. you advertise a show, we watch it and then it take it away! WTF!
i was enjoying the ‘Ex List’ and am dissapointed its been taken off.
If you are not bringing it back can you at least give us something else light hearted in return, because every channel on a monday night now has a crime show, give us something different.
I am very disappointed that ‘ex list’ has been canned. I was really looking forward to it last week and then foolishly assumed that it was on Sunday night and I had missed it.
Its quirky and light hearted exactly what is need on a Monday. I had also told about 6 people who were planing to watch as well.
I am so sick of reality tv and love a little trash in my life
Argh! WTF??
Bring back The Ex List – I was starting to enjoy the show. C’mon Channel 10 do something decent for once and Get Rid of Criminal Intent or whatever its called.
if you look online its still listed at the ten site, the ex-list that is. so they might come back to it.
you can just down load the other two eps if the dont.
BCD aired on abc ages ago so you could prob just buy it at the abc store.
CH 10 stop swapping and changing.
I’m truly disappointed. The ex list is the only show that really made me laugh out loud right now. I was waiting to see it yesterday (my Monday was no longer blue Monday because of it). This is crazy with no warnings should have at least finished episode 4 as the state did.
I liked the ex-list, it was just some light entertainment for a monday night after the weekend. I’m sick of the detective shows and murder on tv, and so many repeats. Why not keep it on over the summer even it is on a later time. Is it any wonder we are turning off our tv’s or getting foxtel and not watching free to air channels anymore when you don’t keep things on and keep changing the times. So what if it doesn’t attract a million viewers, I know a lot of peoplw who are disappointed it’s no longer on.
i was really enjoying the ex list, dont understand why they couldnt just air the rest of the season.. i agree that tv is crap these days! and wat ever happened to the new 90210??
i was crushed when i saw the ex-list wasn’t on tonight!
i was just begining to like that and elizabeth reaser is like my only conection to twilight on this tv!!
and why did they drop 90210 too! that had kellan lutz…give them a shot!!
and eww get rid of bold and the beautiful!!!
xx
Bring back The Ex List!
It was a decent show, unlike the majority of the other crap TEN and other networks put up during non ratings season.
Pretty soon television will be forcing its viewers to download un-aired episodes. Well, it’s already starting with unfinished seasons of Supernatural, etc.
So much for wanting to eliminate downloading.
Ex-List……I was watching that!!!!!!!!!!
Aah, I just came online to see why it wasn’t on tonight. That’s really disappointing. It’s non-ratings for pete’s sake. They can’t show a little compassion? Or late night viewing? This just furthers my theory that television is useless. In the future, I’m just going to bypass them to download everything illegally.
I was really looking forward to it tonight
Bring back the Ex List, I love it! Out of the Blue sux!
I’m so angry that Ex List has been dumped. It is the only interesting new show on TV. Wise up TEN and give shows a chance before you continue to barage us with more of the same crime show dross A bit of variety in programming wouldn’t go astray.
wtf??? this is so shit!!
we organised slumbers around this tv show and they jst cut it on us for some crap aussie drama…again. No one cares for cheap aussir drama’s – they suck! i’d rather watch my self bleed to death then watch them. get some talent.
so angry ch ten. i prefer ch seven anyways…
Where was the memo? I really liked the show and was looking forward to The Ex List. It’s the only good thing I have on Mondays. Thanks for taking what little happiness I had in my life away, Channel Ten programming geniuses. You guys are as fickle as a 13-year-old girl picking out an outfit. Just pick one and go with it!! There’s a reason why radios over play a song; they usually end up becoming #1 hits.
Oh come on, TEN! don’t you realise audience get really tired of networks shifting and changing and dropping programmes all the time??
I cant believe they drpooed the Ex List…after 2 epsisodes..Summer TV is so shit!!
TV is so shit these days and I really liked this show. Cant believe its axed!!! This is why people download everything these days!!!
Cant believe that the ex list will not be shown. you just start liking the show then they take it away, as they did 90210, bring them back..
Channel Ten is the only channel I really watch but then they go and axe most of their shows! what’s with the boring and beautiful at 6pm? I am glad that there’s no more simpsons repeats but you could have put something a little better then that in the 6pm slot. And as for The Ex List, I was just getting into that and then find out that youve gone and axed that too!
and what happened to Supernatural? Bring Supernatural back!!
Oh and what’s with Out of The Blue? Christ that show looks like S**t!!
and I think Arm Wives is a disgrace to our men fighting for our country…
i really likes the ex list! and i wanted to see it… can’t they just play it over summer… i dont think it was given a good enough chance, 2 eps isnts enough!!! i was really like it!!!!! please bring it back on ch 10! they are playing the american kath and kim at 11… surely its better than that!!!
please play it again!
As Neon Kitten was trying to say, if it was truly ‘non-ratings’, they would let 600-800k slide by until the official ‘ratings’ starts up. The fact that they change shows just as much as official ‘ratings’ defies the true meaning of ‘non-ratings’.
“Mitch, there is actually no such thing as “non ratings”.”
I’m pretty sure there is, considering they’re not counted in the official ratings for the year. That’s what “non-ratings” means.
“You’ll notice that they’re still making programming decisions based on… yep, overnight ratings.”
Yes, because as I originally said, they still need to make money. What’s your point? You’re just saying what I’m saying.
Back To The Future Part II – for the 400th time on TEN…
I hope TiVos have the intelligence of WOPR to keep up with these programming changes, because it’s becoming humanly impossible!
I’m loving Army Wives and hope it doesn’t have the same fate as so many good FTA series. So often they aren’t given a chance to get an audience before they get the chop!
I can’t say I’m too sad about the removal of The Ex List. It was awful. But now Army Wives has been pushed back to 9:30pm. I hope it stays there and doesn’t get taken off completely.
The ex list was way better than running re runs of NCIS and LAW & ORDER. It was humourous and easy viewing. With only the 13 episodes it would have filled the Xmas non rating period perfectly.
I was starting to like the Ex-List. I think Channel Ten could’ve atleast given it a chance, since it is non-ratings. I don’t think it should’ve been completely removed from the schedule, maybe just moved to a later timeslot?
Looks like I’ll be tuning into Seven to watch Bones repeats, instead.
Mitch, there is actually no such thing as “non ratings”.
You’ll notice that they’re still making programming decisions based on… yep, overnight ratings.
Summer Experimental Programming Period these days is just when the network publicity departments get to get hammered then go on holiday.
Seriously Ch10.. change your gimmick please to something that suits you..
like..
‘Seriously.. We don’t know what we’re Doing, Thats why we are the laughing stock of the Free2Air Networks’
bring back Supernatural!!! Please!!!
hehe the ex list has got cancelled 2twive
Oh please, the fact it’s non-ratings is not an excuse for why networks should air shows which pull in 400k numbers in a 9:30 slot. Use your brains please, they still need to make money during non-ratings.
Looks like re-runs are winning the ratings, just a shame people can’t try something new, probably the same people complaing about the countless re-runs of 2.5 Men and The Simpsons
In fairness to the makers of The Ex List, from what I’ve read, they were given enough notice that the end was nigh that they were apparrently able to wrap the show up properly. Not many short-lived shows get to do that.
I feel more re-runs of the simpsons coming.
Oh for God’s sake TEN,leave them on. I love Big Cat Diary as do a lot of people I know. Hopefully the ABC will bring it back. They at least leave it on for the duration!! The Ex-list was ok, but Gosh it was on for 2 whole weeks plenty of time to gain an audience(insert sarcastic tone)
“…I liked the Ex-List and it only has about 12 episodes they couldn’t just run it out, it’s non-ratings…”
There were 8 finished only 4 aired in the US.
“Honestly, Ten knew the series had been canceled in the States with only a handful of episodes made – why even bother airing them? I’m glad I never wasted my time.”
This is probably what the viewers in the know are thinking, why should I waste my time if I know it’s already over in the US?
I really liked The Ex-List. It’s non-ratings for crying out loud! I hope they return it soon. If not Monday 9:30pm, then a later timeslot or even daytime, just somewhere!
Every summer the commercial stations shaft shows that get slightly worse ratings than last time. Look where it ends up? Lower ratings each summer. As with the Ex list, i saw a one sentence description and knew it was going to be a failure even before it premiered on CBS. Saturday/Sunday arvo would have been better for 10 to put the show on, given that the show was doomed.
I’m not suprised Ten tried out The Ex List – for a while it was being talked up as their great white hope for 2009 – well that fell through.
I’ve been thinking maybe Ten should run NCIS two hours per night every night – that should solve their problems right there!
Seriously Ten why not move NCIS repeats to Mondays for a while and see how they rate. If they rate crap, then channel 10′s Mondays are cursed! Everything they put on Mondays never works.
Ten are probably using Orange Roughies as part of their Australian drama quota. Maybe it will return over the Christmas / New Year period.
I’m surprised Ten even bothered with The Ex-List at all, given it had already been axed in the states three weeks before it premiered here.
Ch10 are winning the axing shows in NonRatings season now..
Ch10, the joke of FTA Networks..
a shame really, the ex list, while a lame concept was actually pretty funny and the cast had charisma.
Honestly, Ten knew the series had been cancelled in the States with only a handful of episodes made – why even bother airing them? I’m glad I never wasted my time.
…I liked the Ex-List and it only has about 12 episodes they couldn’t just run it out, it’s non-ratings… Ten….
Geez Ten, three movies in a row??
Surely you can do better than that?
So much for them promising to air the other eps as a world primer!
I was liking The Ex List why couldn’t they just put it on later?
