Bumped: This is your Laugh

By David Knox on February 9, 2009 / Filed Under Programming 10

tiyl51If you’re wondering where Andrew O’Keefe’s HD experiment has gone, it is no longer screening on Sunday nights on Seven.

Although Seven screened it’s first episode of The All in Call on 7HD last night, it doesn’t seem particularly interested in continuing the original programming with This is Your Laugh. Maybe Seven doesnt want to dilute its audience from its main channel?

Instead, the show is moving to Saturday nights.

It returns on February 28th at 8:30pm with guests Angry Anderson and Cal Wilson.

Screening on a Saturday on 7HD could suggest it is unlikely to enjoy a second lease of life with the network.

    Thank goodness Sevendi not put this on normal TV and consigned it to HD.
    when will they learn that O’Keefe just does not cut it for most folk.

    TVDude, yes I found that annoying! But it wasn’t just AOK’s show that did that, I found it did it most shows and still does at random times, but not as bad as before.

    This is the biggest laugh this show has gotten…

    I can imagine why people in WA were not watching it.

    There is something seriously wrong with 7HD audio. when the content between SD and HD differs.

    It sounds like electronic crickets chriping overpowering the normal audio of the show. This doesn’t always happen but it happens far too often and it happened every single time I saw the start of this AOK tv show.

    No big loss – It was something to watch to kill time, but it didn’t really have that much humor.

    The idea of an interview show with AOK was a good idea. Adding the impro during the show, is distracting and didn’t really wash with me.

    I thought this show was originally going to be a Late Show with David Letterman style show, which AOK would handle with ease.

    Such a shame.

    I agree with Craig. The additonal HD channels should be used for programs that do not rate on the normal schedules of 10, 9 and 7. It means that die hards get to see the rest of their programs and the networks can still alter their schedules for shows that rate. Let’s hope we get some decent programming not more of the same

    FreeView is a joke if none of the networks are going to support multi content, what does 7 and 9 think is going to happen with their 2nd SD channels? At least ch10 is promoting sport that can only be seen on 10HD live.

    Reminds me I must call my local ch10 to see when we’ll get 10HD..
